[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the specific working process of the safety start linkage mechanism is disclosed;

[0033] Connecting the frame 1 and the hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 2 provided inside the frame 1, wherein the hydrostatic continuously variable transmission 2 is used to change the output efficiency of the engine;

[0034] The connecting frame 1 is located inside the tractor head. A forward pedal 3 and a buffer pull rod 4 are provided inside the connecting frame 1. A front limit bolt 8 is provided at the lower end of the forward pedal 3, and the front limit bolt 8 is installed on the outside of the tractor head. A bearing 7 is provided inside the connecting frame 1, and a neutral positioning rod 11 is installed inside the bearing 7. The neutral positioning rod 11 is rotatably connected to the connecting frame 1 through the bearing 7.

[0035] A safety start switch 5 is provided inside the connecting frame 1, and a traction rod 9 is provided inside the connecting frame 1. By controlling the neutral positioning rod 11 to contact the safety start switch 5, the tractor engine is safely started;

[0036] A rear limit bolt 6 and a backward foot pedal 15 are provided inside the connecting frame 1, a traction rod 9 is provided inside the connecting frame 1, and the center of the traction rod 9 and the center of the safety start switch 5 are in the same straight line, a control rocker arm 13 is provided inside the connecting frame 1, and a transmission square shaft 14 is provided inside the connecting frame 1;

[0037] The rear limit bolt 6 is located at the lower end of the rear foot pedal 15, and the upper end surface of the rear limit bolt 6 is higher than the upper end surface of the front limit bolt 8;

[0038] The neutral positioning rod 11 is located at the lower end of the return spring 10 , and the neutral positioning rod 11 and the backward pedal 15 are located on the same side of the connecting frame 1 .

[0039] When using the tractor's stepless speed control and engine safety start linkage mechanism;

[0040] Through the HST (Hydrostatic Continuously Variable Transmission) 2, the connection between the lower transmission square shaft 14 and the HST control rocker arm 13, the forward pedal 3 and the reverse pedal 15 are controlled by the foot;

[0041] When the HST forward pedal 3 or the reverse pedal 15 is stepped on, the rocker arm of the buffer pull rod 4 drives the HST control rocker arm 13 to rotate, and at the same time, the neutral rocker arm 17 is driven to rotate by rotating and squeezing the bearing 7 on the neutral rocker arm 17, thereby causing the return spring 10 to pull up or rebound.

[0042] The HST control stroke controls the starting position of the HST forward pedal 3 and the reverse pedal 15 by adjusting the front limit bolt 8 and the rear limit bolt 6, ultimately realizing the forward and reverse functions of the HST tractor;

[0043] When the HST control rocker arm 13 is in the neutral position 16, the safety start switch 5 contacts the neutral positioning rod 11, the output shaft of the HST is in the neutral position, and the safety start switch 5 triggers a signal to the whole machine starting device. Only then can the engine be safely started, ensuring the safety of tractor starting.

[0044] When the neutral positioning rod 11 is in the neutral position 16 and contacts the safety start switch 5, the engine can be safely started.

[0045] When the HST reverse pedal 15 is stepped on, the HST control rocker arm 13 is driven to rotate backward from the neutral position 16 through the buffer pull rod 4, and then the bearing 7 on the neutral rocker arm 17 is squeezed away by the edge of the HST control rocker arm 13, causing the neutral positioning rod 11 to move forward from the neutral position 16, that is, the neutral positioning rod 11 is separated from the safety start switch 5, the engine starting device is in the closed protection state, and the engine cannot be started.

[0046] When the HST forward pedal 3 is stepped on, the HST control rocker arm 13 is driven to rotate forward from the neutral position 16 through the buffer pull rod 4, and then the bearing 7 on the neutral rocker arm 17 is squeezed away by the edge of the HST control rocker arm 13, causing the neutral positioning rod 11 to move forward from the neutral position 16, that is, the neutral positioning rod 11 is separated from the safety start switch 5, the engine starting device is in the closed protection state, and the engine cannot be safely started.

[0047] A damping rod 12 is provided inside the connecting frame 1, and the damping rod 12 is located at the lower end of the backward foot pedal 15;

[0048] The control rocker arm 13 is located at the lower end of the return spring 10 and is located on the side of the forward pedal 3 close to the reverse foot pedal 15 together with the control rocker arm 13;

[0049] The transmission square shaft 14 is fixedly connected to the control rocker arm 13, and the transmission square shaft 14 is away from the side of the control rocker arm 13 close to the buffer rod 4;

[0050] A neutral rocker arm 17 is provided inside the connecting frame 1 , and the neutral rocker arm 17 is rotationally connected to the control rocker arm 13 , and the upper end of the neutral rocker arm 17 is engaged with the return spring 10 .

[0051] When the neutral position 16 safety start switch 5 contacts the neutral positioning rod 11, the engine can be safely started, which has a safety and protection effect on the entire machine and personnel.

[0052] The buffer pad in the buffer pull rod 4 forms a buffering effect on the forward pedal 3 and the backward foot pedal 15. At the same time, the damping rod 12 can reduce the impact force of the return spring 10 and also increase the buffering of the foot pedal.

[0053] Foot control enables stepless speed change of the tractor, which is easy and convenient.

[0054] Design the contact arc between the HST control rocker arm 13 and the bearing 7 to ensure that the distance between the bearing 7 and the rotation axis of the HST control rocker arm 13 is the shortest when the bearing 7 is in the neutral position 16;

[0055] When the operating pedal is in the forward or reverse state, the bearing 7 is away from the axis of the HST control rocker arm 13, thereby pulling the neutral positioning rod 11 away from the safety start switch 5, putting the entire machine in a non-start protection state, thereby improving the safety of the entire machine startup and increasing the overall practicality.
