Detailed implementation manners
[0038] The present utility model can be explained in detail through the following embodiments. The purpose of disclosing the present utility model is to protect all technical improvements within the scope of the present utility model.
[0039] An elastic assist clutch pedal assembly, see the attached Figure 1 , 2 , 3: It includes a pedal bracket 1, a pedal assembly 2, an assist member, a tension spring 4, and a clutch pull rod assembly 5; the pedal bracket 1 includes a bottom plate 1.1 and side plates 1.2, and the side plates 1.2 are fixedly connected to the bottom plate 1.1; one end of the clutch pull rod assembly 5 is hingedly connected to the pedal assembly 2, and the other end is connected to the clutch; the pedal assembly 2 and the assist assembly are respectively hingedly connected to the side plates 1.2, and the pedal assembly 2 and the assist assembly are movably connected. Both ends of the tension spring 4 are connected to the pedal assembly 2 and the assist assembly respectively, and the tension spring 4 is provided with a pre-tension; the pre-tension of the tension spring 4 causes both the pedal assembly 2 and the assist assembly to generate a rotational torque. When stepping on the pedal assembly 2, the rotational torque of the assist assembly is transmitted to the pedal assembly 2 through the movable connection between the pedal assembly 2 and the assist assembly, and after being superimposed with the rotational torque of the pedal assembly 2, it drives the clutch to disengage through the clutch pull rod assembly 5. Therefore, it has the advantages of simple structure, high assist efficiency, low cost, and easy maintenance.
[0040] Furthermore, see the attached Figure 4 , 5 : The pedal assembly 2 includes a hinge sleeve module 2.1; the hinge sleeve module 2.1 includes a hinge sleeve 2.1.1, a hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2, and a connecting plate 2.1.3. The hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 and the connecting plate 2.1.3 are fixedly arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 by welding; both the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 and the assist member are provided with gear teeth, and the rotational torque of the assist member is transmitted to the pedal assembly 2 through gear tooth meshing connection.
[0041] Preferably, see the attached Figure 17 : The pedal assembly 2 includes a hinge sleeve module 2.1; the hinge sleeve module 2.1 includes a hinge sleeve 2.1.1, a hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2, and a connecting plate 2.1.3. The hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 and the connecting plate 2.1.3 are fixedly arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 by welding; in this preferred technical solution, the assist member and the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 are respectively provided with a sliding head and a sliding groove, and the assist member and the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 are movably connected through the sliding head and the sliding groove, and the rotational torque of the assist member is transmitted to the pedal assembly 2.
[0042] Preferably, see the attached Figure 18: The pedal assembly 2 includes a hinge sleeve module 2.1; the hinge sleeve module 2.1 includes a hinge sleeve 2.1.1, a hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2, and a connecting plate 2.1.3. The hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 and the connecting plate 2.1.3 are fixedly arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1; in this preferred technical solution, the assist member and the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 are hingedly connected through an assist link 8 to transmit the rotational torque of the assist member to the pedal assembly 2.
[0043] Furthermore, the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 is hingedly connected with a tension spring connecting plate 2.4. One end of the tension spring 4 is connected to the tension spring connecting plate 2.4. The tension of the tension spring 4 acts on the pedal assembly 2 through the tension spring connecting plate 2.4; the structure of connecting the tension spring 4 with the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 can avoid the interference problem between the tension spring 4 and the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 when the tension spring 4 is internally arranged (the tension spring 4 is arranged inside the two side plates 1.2); the internal structure of the tension spring 4 can prevent the problem that the tension spring 4 falls off accidentally when the elastic assist clutch pedal assembly is in use and touches the tension spring 4 by accident.
[0044] Furthermore, when the internal structure of the tension spring 4 is adopted, the connection point position of the tension spring 4 and the assist member is located outside the connection line of the hinge points of the assist member, the pedal assembly 2 and the side plate 1.2; the connection point position of the tension spring 4 and the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 is located inside the connection line of the hinge points of the assist member, the pedal assembly 2 and the side plate 1.2.

One end of the tension spring 4 is connected to the spring hanging post 3.3 or the tension spring hole; when the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 adopts the structure of connecting the tension spring 4 with the spring hanging post 3.3 or the tension spring hole, the tension spring 4 can be externally arranged (the tension spring 4 is arranged outside the two side plates 1.2) to avoid interference with the hinge sleeve 2.1.1. This structure can omit the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 and simplify the overall structure of the elastic assist clutch pedal assembly; in the attached drawings of the specification Figure 19 In, the spring hanging post 3.3 is an independent structural member, but the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 can adopt a stamping structural member, and the spring hanging post 3.3 is formed by stamping to omit the spring hanging post 3.3.
[0046] Furthermore, when the external structure of the tension spring 4 is adopted, the connection point positions of the tension spring 4 with the assist member and the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 are both located outside the connection line of the hinge points of the assist member, the pedal assembly 2 and the side plate 1.2.
[0047] Furthermore, the clutch pull rod assembly 5 is hingedly connected to the connecting plate 2.1.3; the pedal assembly 2 further includes a pedal link assembly 2.2, and the pedal link assembly 2.2 is adjustably connected to the connecting plate 2.1.3 through a pedal link adjustment block 2.3. The agricultural machinery driver can adjust the pedal link assembly 2.2 to the optimal position according to personal needs, making it more comfortable when stepping on the clutch pedal 2.2.2; in addition, the pedal link assembly 2.2 can also be directly fixedly arranged on the outer cylindrical surface of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 by welding, thereby simplifying the connection structure between the pedal link assembly 2.2 and the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 and the structure of the connecting plate 2.1.3.
[0048] Furthermore, a limit sensor 6 is fixedly arranged on the pedal bracket 1. On the one hand, the limit sensor 6 can limit the position of the pedal assembly 2 when it returns, and on the other hand, it can also detect the return signal of the pedal assembly 2. Embodiment 1:

[0055] The limit sensor 6 adopts a proximity switch and is fixedly arranged on the limit sensor bracket 1.2.3 of the pedal bracket 1 through a nut. The working end of the limit sensor 6 corresponds to the limit plate 2.1.4 on the pedal assembly 2.
[0056] The working principle of the elastic assisting clutch pedal assembly is specifically analyzed as follows: When the elastic assisting clutch pedal assembly works, it is divided into an idle stroke section and an assisting stroke section;
[0057] See the attached instruction manual Figure 14 This attached drawing specifically shows the force condition of the elastic assisting clutch pedal assembly in the idle stroke section; in the idle stroke section, the inner arc of the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 closely adheres to the outer circular surface of the articulated sleeve 2.1.1; the distance between the center line L of the tension spring 4 and the articulated axis of the pedal assembly 2 is L1, and the distance from the articulated axis of the assisting tooth plate assembly 3 is L2, and L2 > L1; the pulling force of the tension spring 4 acts on the pedal assembly 2 through the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 and acts on the assisting tooth plate assembly 3 through the spring hanging post 3.3. A clockwise torque M1 (M1 = F1 * L1) is generated on the pedal assembly 2, and a clockwise torque M2 (M2 = F2 * L2, F1 and F2 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction) is generated on the assisting tooth plate assembly 3. Since L2 > L1, M2 > M1, and the assisting tooth plate assembly 3 offsets M1 through meshing, and the remaining torque M2 - M1 drives the pedal assembly 2 to have a tendency to rotate counterclockwise. At this time, the elastic assistance provided by the elastic assisting clutch pedal assembly is negative, keeping the pedal assembly 2 in the initial state position; in the idle stroke section, since M2 and M1 offset each other partially, the remaining torque M2 - M1 that drives the pedal assembly 2 to maintain the initial state is small. Therefore, only a small stepping force is required to drive the pedal assembly 2 out of the idle stroke section, and the stepping force that drives the pedal assembly 2 in the idle stroke section gradually decreases.
[0058] See the attached instruction manual Figure 15: The figure specifically shows the state of the elastic power-assisted clutch pedal assembly at the end of the idle stroke section, which is the transition point between the idle stroke section and the power-assisted stroke section; in this state, the center line of the tension spring 4 coincides with the hinge axis of the pedal assembly 2 and the hinge axis of the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3 (L1=L2=0), or the center line of the tension spring 4 is equal to the distance from the hinge axis of the pedal assembly 2 and the distance from the hinge axis of the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3 (i.e., L1=L2), so M2 and M1 are both zero or equal in size, so the pedaling force at the transition point is extremely small; the elastic power-assisted clutch pedal assembly enters the power-assisted stroke section after crossing the transition point;
[0059] See the instruction manual Figure 16 : The accompanying drawing specifically shows the working condition of the elastic power-assisted clutch pedal assembly after entering the power-assisted stroke section; after the elastic power-assisted clutch pedal assembly passes the transition point, the pedal assembly 2 continues to rotate around the axis of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 under the action of the pedal force, and the center line of the tension spring 4 is separated from the hinge axis of the pedal assembly 2 and the hinge axis of the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3, and the distance increases with the increase of the rotation angle of the pedal assembly 2, and at the same time, the connection point position of the tension spring 4 and the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3 passes the center line of the tension spring 4; at this time, the torque M2 on the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3 becomes counterclockwise, and the torque M2 of the power-assisted toothed plate assembly 3 is transmitted to the pedal assembly 2 through the gear meshing, and is superimposed with the clockwise torque M1 of the pedal assembly 2 to form a larger torque to drive the pedal assembly 2 to rotate clockwise, and the superimposed torque increases with the increase of the rotation angle of the pedal assembly 2 (the pedaling depth of the clutch pedal 2.2.2), thereby greatly reducing the force of the agricultural machinery operator in the process of stepping on the clutch pedal 2.2.2, and reducing the labor intensity of the agricultural machinery operator who frequently steps on the clutch pedal 2.2.2. Embodiment 2:
[0060] See the instruction manual Figure 17 : In this embodiment, a slider and a slide groove are respectively provided on the power-assisting member and the articulated sleeve power-assisting plate 2.1.2. The slider of the power-assisting member is movably arranged in the slide groove of the articulated sleeve power-assisting plate 2.1.2 to realize the active transmission connection between the power-assisting member and the articulated sleeve power-assisting plate 2.1.2; In this embodiment, the working principle of the elastic power-assisting clutch pedal assembly is the same as that in Embodiment 1 and will not be repeated. Embodiment three:
[0061] See the instruction manual Figure 18 : In this embodiment, the power-assisting member and the articulated sleeve power-assisting plate 2.1.2 are hingedly connected through the power-assisting connecting rod 8, and the active transmission connection between the power-assisting member and the articulated sleeve power-assisting plate 2.1.2 is realized through the power-assisting connecting rod 8; in this embodiment, the working principle of the elastic power-assisting clutch pedal assembly is the same as that in embodiment 1 and will not be repeated.

[0062] See the instruction manualFigure 19 : In this embodiment, the tension spring 4 is arranged outside the side plate 1.2; the spring hanging post 3.3 or the tension spring hole is fixedly arranged on the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2. One end of the tension spring 4 is connected to the spring hanging post 3.3 on the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 or in the tension spring hole, and the other end is connected to the spring hanging post 3.3 of the assist tooth plate assembly 3. Therefore, the tension spring connecting plate 2.4 in the first embodiment is omitted; the connection points of the tension spring 4 with the assist member and the hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2 are both located outside the connection line of the hinge points of the assist member, the pedal assembly 2 and the side plate 1.2. In this embodiment, the working principle of the elastic assist clutch pedal assembly is the same as that of the first embodiment, and will not be elaborated here. Embodiment Five:
[0063] In this embodiment, the pedal link combination 2.2 is directly fixedly arranged on the outer cylindrical surface of the hinge sleeve 2.1.1 by welding; therefore, in this embodiment, the pedal link adjustment block 2.3 is omitted, and at the same time, the structure of the connection plate 2.1.3 is also simplified, and only the pull rod hinge hole 2.1.3.3 needs to be retained, and the adjustment gear teeth 2.1.3.1 and the adjustment groove 2.1.3.2 are cancelled.
[0064] In the above embodiments, two assist components, hinge sleeve assist plates 2.1.2, and tension springs 4 are symmetrically arranged; to further simplify the structure of the elastic assist clutch pedal assembly and reduce costs, one assist component, hinge sleeve assist plate 2.1.2, and tension spring 4 can also be arranged, and the function of the elastic assist clutch pedal assembly can also be realized.
[0065] The parts not elaborated in the present utility model are the prior art.
