Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model is a device for setting the position of the conveyor arm of a sugarcane machine with one click. Background Technology

[0002] Cutting sugarcane harvesters are highly adaptable and efficient, making them the mainstream harvesting machinery for sugarcane. Existing cutting sugarcane harvesters are divided into bin-type and conveyor-arm type. Bin-type harvesters, due to their limited bin capacity (approximately 3 cubic meters), require frequent unloading during harvesting, resulting in lower efficiency compared to conveyor-arm types. Conveyor-arm type harvesters are equipped with one or more large transport vehicles for harvesting, each with a bin capacity of 15-20 cubic meters. The combined operation of conveyor-arm type harvesters and loaders significantly reduces unloading time, increases the machine's pure operating time, and greatly improves overall efficiency.

[0003] However, existing conveyor arm type sugarcane harvesters require manual adjustment of the conveyor arm position to adapt to the corresponding loading vehicle during each harvest, and manual readjustment of the conveyor arm position is required when changing rows after harvesting a row of sugarcane, which affects the operation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a device for setting the position of the sugarcane machine conveyor arm with one click.

[0005] A device for setting the position of a sugarcane machine conveyor arm with one click includes a frame, a conveyor arm, an actuator, and a control mechanism. The conveyor arm is hinged to a rotating support and rotates longitudinally about its rotation axis. The rotating support is hinged to the frame and rotates laterally about its rotation axis. The actuator is used to drive the conveyor arm to rotate.

[0006] The control mechanism includes a first angle sensor, a second angle sensor, an instrument, a control panel, and a programmable controller. The first angle sensor is used to sense and upload data signals of the longitudinal rotation of the conveyor arm, and the second angle sensor is used to sense and upload data signals of the lateral rotation of the conveyor arm. The programmable controller is used to receive signals from the first angle sensor, the second angle sensor, and the control panel and output signals. The instrument is used to receive data signals from the programmable controller and display corresponding data. The control panel is equipped with a memory button and multiple execution buttons. When the memory button is pressed, the programmable controller writes and stores the current conveyor arm angle data. When the execution button is pressed, the programmable controller controls the execution mechanism to rotate the conveyor arm to the position of the preset angle data.

[0007] Preferably, the actuator includes a longitudinal rotating cylinder and a transverse rotating cylinder. The base of the longitudinal rotating cylinder is connected to the frame, and its floating joint is connected to the middle section of the conveyor arm. The transverse rotating cylinder includes a first transverse rotating cylinder and a second transverse rotating cylinder. The bases of the first transverse rotating cylinder and the second transverse rotating cylinder are mounted on the frame, and their floating joints are connected to the bottom of the conveyor arm.

[0008] Preferably, the first angle sensor is mounted on a rotating bracket and is connected to the conveying arm via a first link and a second link. One end of the first link is hinged to the first angle sensor, the other end of the first link is hinged to one end of the second link, and the other end of the second link is hinged to the conveying arm.

One end of the third link is hinged to the second angle sensor, the other end of the third link is hinged to one end of the fourth link, and the other end of the fourth link is hinged to the rotating bracket.

[0010] Preferably, the power supplies for the first angle sensor, the second angle sensor, the programmable controller, the instrument, and the control panel all pass through the fuse in the fuse box.

[0011] Beneficial effects: Compared with the prior art, this utility model uses two angle sensors to detect the lateral and longitudinal angles between the conveyor arm and the vehicle body respectively; the linkage mechanism amplifies the values ​​measured by the angle sensors, making the measured values ​​more accurate; the position information of the conveyor arm can be displayed on the instrument in real time; the output values ​​of the angle sensors at different positions of the conveyor arm can be written into the programmable controller and different buttons can be set on the control panel to realize the memory of the position of the conveyor arm, as well as the one-click setting function for different positions; at the same time, the power supplies of the angle sensors, the instrument and the programmable controller are all connected to fuses, which can effectively protect the safety of electrical appliances.
