Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tractors, and in particular relates to a high ground clearance gearbox assembly and a tractor. Background Art

[0002] When tractors are used for tillage, they often need to apply pesticides. At this time, the crop growth height has reached 70-80cm. The chassis of ordinary tractors is relatively low, mostly around 50cm. Using ordinary tractors will damage crops, resulting in reduced crop yields and reduced economic benefits. To maximize crop protection and increase yields, the tractor chassis height needs to be raised, increasing the distance between the lowest point of the chassis and the ground. The rear wheel tire diameter is directly increased to increase the ground clearance. The chassis raising distance is small, and tires with too large a diameter will cause the transmission system to bear higher torque, reducing the reliability of the transmission system. Tires with too large a diameter will also take up a large space, making the steering worse, the overall machine space layout smaller, and the overall machine cost will also increase.
