Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of agricultural machinery clutch and brake devices, and particularly relates to a combined brake and clutch pedal structure for agricultural machinery. Background Technique
[0002] With the advancement of agricultural modernization, more and more agricultural machinery and equipment are popularized in the agricultural industry. Judging from the evolution of rotary tillers, it has gradually changed from the initial walking-type micro-tiller to a riding-type rotary tiller with less labor and higher efficiency. In the operation of existing riding-type rotary tillers, the operation mainly still requires the use of both hands and feet to make the equipment run. However, as the aging of the population increases, the age of operators of agricultural machinery and equipment is gradually tending towards old age. Therefore, a more concise operation is easier for operators to get started and reduces the safety risks caused by misoperations.
[0003] In existing agricultural machinery products, for equipment operation and braking, a dual-pedal method is mostly adopted. That is, one pedal is used for working clutch. By means of a clutch cable, the clutch is driven to achieve continuous operation of the equipment. The other is used for parking. That is, this pedal is connected to a brake cable, and the brake mechanism is driven by driving the brake cable to achieve braking.
[0004] In the actual operation process, if the two pedals can be operated by one foot, the risk of misoperation caused by operating with two feet can be reduced. And if the two pedals are integrated into one pedal, it will be safer and more reliable. However, in the current clutch design of agricultural machinery, the stroke of the clutch is limited and the rotation angle is small. During the use of a directly-connected pedal, the operator needs to step on the pedal hard with the foot, otherwise, due to the vibration of the agricultural machinery, the foot surface will become loose, which will easily affect the clutch tightness of the agricultural machinery, resulting in speed fluctuations and impacting the clutch. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] I. Technical Problems to be Solved
[0006] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a combined brake and clutch pedal structure for agricultural machinery, which integrates the brake pedal and the clutch pedal of the agricultural machinery, thereby reducing the situation of misoperation when operating two pedals with one foot and lowering the operation difficulty and operation threshold.
[0007] II. Specific Technical Solutions

The pedal is hinged to one end of the support plate through a connecting rod thereon. A first kidney-shaped hole is provided in the middle of the support plate. The middle of the brake pull plate is rotatably connected to the upper middle part of the support plate, and a second kidney-shaped hole corresponding to the first kidney-shaped hole is provided at the first end of the brake pull plate. One end of the clutch pull plate is hinged to the connecting rod, and a sliding pin is provided at the other end of the clutch pull plate. The sliding pin passes through the first kidney-shaped hole and the second kidney-shaped hole and can slide along the first kidney-shaped hole and the second kidney-shaped hole.

One end of the clutch cable is fixedly connected to the sliding pin, and one end of the brake cable is connected to the first end of the brake pull plate.
[0009] Implementation principle, working principle:
[0010] The basic principle of this solution is that after all the components of this mechanism are assembled, the connecting rod on the pedal can rotate around the connection position on the support plate, and at the same time, the sliding pin pressing through the clutch pull plate can slide along the first kidney-shaped hole and the second kidney-shaped hole, thereby stretching the clutch cable installed on the sliding pin and retracting the brake cable. At this time, the brake cable retracts and the brake of the agricultural machinery is released; the clutch cable of the agricultural machinery is stretched, the clutch is engaged, and the working transmission is started. The role of the tension spring is that when the pedal is released, the tension spring will pull the brake pull plate to rotate around the connection position in the middle of the brake pull plate, thereby resetting the sliding pin along the first kidney-shaped hole and the second kidney-shaped hole; at this time, the brake cable is stretched, the agricultural machinery brakes, the clutch cable retracts, the clutch is released, and the working transmission is disconnected; effectively integrating the brake pedal and the clutch pedal of the agricultural machinery, thereby reducing the situation of misoperation when operating the two pedals with one foot and reducing the operation difficulty and operation threshold.
[0011] As a preference: A first mounting ear is further provided on the side of the support plate connected to the pedal, and a mounting hole is provided on the mounting ear; a first tube is provided on the clutch cable, and the first tube is clamped at the mounting hole of the first mounting ear. One end of the clutch cable passes through the first tube and is connected to the sliding pin; the beneficial effect of this preference is that through the setting of the first tube, on the one hand, it can reduce the wear between the clutch cable and the support plate, and on the other hand, it can play a guiding role, making the stretching and retraction of the clutch cable smoother.
[0012] As a preference: A second mounting ear is provided on the side of the support plate where the tension spring is located, and a second tube is provided on the second mounting ear. One end of the brake cable passes through the second tube and is fixedly connected to the brake pull plate; the beneficial effect of this preference is that through the setting of the second tube, on the one hand, it can reduce the wear between the brake cable and the support plate, and on the other hand, it can play a guiding role, making the stretching and retraction of the brake cable smoother.
[0013] Preferably, a third mounting ear is provided in the middle of the support plate. The third mounting ear is L-shaped. One end of the third mounting ear is fixedly provided on the support plate, and the other end of the third mounting ear is parallel to the support plate. A first waist-shaped hole is also provided at the other end, and the two first waist-shaped holes coincide. The beneficial effect of this preference is that through the setting of the third mounting ear, both ends of the sliding pin are located in the two first waist-shaped holes, making it more stable.
[0014] Preferably, mounting columns are provided on the connecting rod. There are two mounting columns and they are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the connecting rod. There are two sets of clutch pull plates. One end of the two clutch pull plates is rotatably connected in the mounting columns, and the other end of the two clutch pull plates is connected between the two first waist-shaped holes through a sliding pin. The two clutch pull plates are both located between the support plate and the third mounting ear. The beneficial effect of this preference is that the setting of the number and position of the clutch pull plates prevents the sliding pin from shifting during rotation, resulting in better safety and stability.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. Integrating the brake and clutch into one pedal reduces the operating components required by the operator and reduces the possibility of incorrect operation of the equipment.
[0017] 2. When the pedal is not depressed, it automatically enters the brake mode and automatically parks, eliminating the problem of vehicle rollback due to forgetting to apply the brake.
[0018] 3. Passively stretching the clutch cable can increase the total cable travel and reduce the problem of clutch slack caused by foot surface fluctuations, which affects the fluctuations during rotation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
