[0019] To make the technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention clearer, the following further elaborates on the embodiments of the present invention.

[0020] A telescopic rear axle with variable wheelbase includes a fixed arm 100, a telescopic arm 200, and a wheel body 300. A telescopic rear axle disclosed in the present utility model can be used as a front axle in practical applications. One end of the telescopic arm 200 is fixedly connected to the wheel body 300, and the other end of the telescopic arm 200 is slidably connected to the fixed arm 100. A telescopic drive module 400 is connected between the fixed arm 100 and the telescopic arm 200. The telescopic drive module 400 is used to control the telescopic arm 200 to extend or retract, thereby realizing the adjustment of the wheelbase between the left and right wheels.

[0021] In this embodiment, the fixed arm 100 is tubular, which can be a round tube, a square tube, a triangular tube, etc. The telescopic arm 200 is columnar or tubular, and the cross-sectional shape of the telescopic arm 200 matches the cross-sectional shape of the lumen of the fixed arm 100. The telescopic arm 200 is inserted into the lumen of the fixed arm 100 and can slide in the lumen.

[0022] As shown in the figure, in order to increase the stability and load-bearing capacity of the rear axle, three fixed arms 100 are provided. The three fixed arms 100 are arranged in parallel and in a triangular pattern. As shown in the figure, in order to increase stability and firmness, the three fixed arms 100 are fixedly connected by connecting blocks. In this embodiment, the three fixed arms 100 include two upper circular tube fixed arms 100 and one lower square tube fixed arm 100. Connecting blocks are arranged at intervals between the two upper fixed arms 100 to achieve connection and fixation. At the same time, connecting blocks are arranged at both ends to connect the three fixed arms 100. In order to achieve the installation with agricultural machinery, a connecting plate is provided on the upper part of the fixed arm 100, and connecting through holes are provided on the connecting plate, through which connection with the main body of the agricultural machinery can be achieved by bolts. In order not to affect the installation of the main body of the agricultural machinery, the telescopic drive module 400 is arranged on the lower fixed arm 100. The telescopic drive module 400 is an oil cylinder, the cylinder body of the oil cylinder is connected to the fixed arm 100, and the free end of the telescopic shaft of the oil cylinder is hinged to the end of the telescopic arm 200. In this embodiment, three fixed arms 100 are provided, and correspondingly three telescopic arms 200 are provided. The ends of the three telescopic arms 200 are fixedly connected to the upper support fixing seat 210 as shown in the figure. At this time, the free end of the telescopic shaft of the oil cylinder is connected to the upper support fixing seat 210 that fixes the three telescopic arms 200. As shown in the figure, the free end of the telescopic shaft is hinged to the upper support fixing seat 210. The cylinder body at the other end is also hinged to the lower fixed arm 100.

[0023] In addition to applying hydraulic cylinders, electric telescopic cylinders and electric telescopic rods can also be used as the telescopic drive module.

[0024] In order to reduce the friction during the telescopic process, increase the strength of the telescopic arm 200, and save material costs, grooves with the same length direction as the axis direction of the telescopic arm 200 are provided on the surface of the telescopic arm 200.

[0025] The wheel body 300 includes legs 310, a lower support fixing seat 320, and a wheel 340. The upper part of the leg 310 is connected to the upper support fixing seat 210. The lower part of the leg 310 is connected to the lower support fixing seat 320. The lower end of the lower support fixing seat 320 is connected to the wheel 340. The rear axle or the front axle in this embodiment is applicable to four-wheel drive agricultural machinery equipment. A wheel drive module is installed at the lower end of the lower support fixing seat 320, and the wheel drive module drives the wheel 340 to rotate. In this embodiment, in unity with the telescopic drive module 400, the wheel drive module adopts a hydraulic motor 330. As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the leg 310 is columnar. The lower support fixing seat 320 is concave and opens outward. As shown in the figure, the main shape of the lower support fixing seat 320 is a semi-rectangular frame and opens outward. The upper end of the lower support fixing seat 320 is fixedly connected to the leg 310 or rotatably connected to the leg 310 through a bearing. The upper support fixing seat 210 includes an angular frame sleeved and fixedly connected to the leg 310. One side of the angular frame is fixedly connected to the panel of the plate-like structure, and the panel is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic arm 200.

[0026] When adjusting the wheelbase, it is necessary to do so while the wheels are rotating. To avoid misoperation, a locking mechanism is provided between the wheel drive system and the telescopic control system. When using a hydraulic cylinder or a hydraulic motor. The normally open contact of the hydraulic motor drive switch is connected in series in the drive control circuit of the hydraulic cylinder. When the agricultural machinery is moving, the normally open contact is closed. After the drive switch in the control circuit of the hydraulic cylinder of the telescopic drive module 400 is closed, the two series-connected switches are closed simultaneously to start the adjustment of the wheelbase. When the agricultural machinery is stationary, the normally open contact is in the open state. At this time, even if the start switch of the hydraulic cylinder in the telescopic drive module is pressed, the wheelbase adjustment will not be started, thus protecting the overall telescopic rear axle.

[0027] As Figure 2 shown, the present utility model can be telescoped only at one end, or as Figure 3 shown, telescopic control can be performed at both ends. Therefore, the present utility model can have a wider adjustment range.

[0028] In summary, it is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not used to limit the scope of the present invention. Through the above description, relevant staff can make various changes and modifications completely within the scope without departing from the technical idea of the present invention. The technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the content in the specification. All equivalent changes and modifications in terms of the shape, structure, features, and spirit described in the claims of the present invention should be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
