TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to gearbox technical field, concretely relates to a gearbox structure that gear shifting is realized to motor drive plunger. BACKGROUND
[0002] The existing gearbox shifting device mainly has two kinds of manual shifting and electro-hydraulic shifting. Manual shifting is time-consuming and laborious, and has high labor intensity, and the shifting mechanism is easy to wear and tear, and shifting delay occurs, and a shifting rocker arm also needs to be equipped, which occupies a large space and often leads to shifting difficulty. The electro-hydraulic shifting mechanism uses an electromagnetic valve to control a hydraulic valve to realize shifting, but the cost is high, the failure rate is high, and the maintenance operation is not easy. For example, the two-gear mechanical gearbox shifting mechanism with the authorized publication number CN209278461U of Chinese patent, although the shifting yoke is placed on the side of the shifting motor to improve the space utilization rate, but the fundamental problem of the traditional shifting mode has not been solved. With the continuous development of electrification in the field of agricultural equipment, the limitations of the traditional shifting mode in shifting precision and efficiency are increasingly prominent, and it is difficult to meet the needs of modern agricultural machinery for efficient and accurate shifting. SUMMARY

Specifically, the control button in the cab serves as a signal input source, and the driver sends a shifting signal by pressing different buttons. After receiving the signal of the control button, the controller controls the stepping motor to perform a shifting action. During the shifting process, the stepping motor first moves the plunger to the middle position of the neutral position, and then rotates a corresponding number of steps to move the plunger, the plunger block and the yoke to the specified gear position. The advantage of this scheme is that the driver does not need to manually operate the mechanical shifting lever, thereby reducing the labor intensity, and the effect is more obvious especially in the case of long-time driving and frequent shifting; at the same time, this scheme can adapt to gearbox assemblies of different types of harvesters.

A shift mechanism 4 is installed on the top cover of the gearbox assembly 3. A stepper motor 5 is installed on the side of the shift mechanism 4. The control end of the stepper motor 5 is connected to the controller 2, and the shaft end of the stepper motor 5 is connected to the shift lever inside the shift mechanism 4.
[0024] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the technical scheme is connected with the control button 1 in the cab and the gearbox assembly 3 at the engine through the controller 2, and the shift mechanism 4 is installed on the top cover of the gearbox assembly 3, and the stepping motor 5 is installed on the side of the shift mechanism 4, thereby constructing a gearbox structure of shifting by the motor driving the shift head. Specifically, the control button 1 in the cab is used as the signal input source, and the driver sends the shift signal by pressing different buttons. After receiving the signal of the control button 1, the controller 2 controls the stepping motor 5 to perform the shift action. During the shift process, the stepping motor 5 first moves the shift head to the middle position of the neutral position, and then rotates the corresponding number of steps to move the shift head, the shift block and the shift fork to the specified gear position. The advantage of the scheme is that the driver does not need to manually operate the mechanical shift lever, thereby reducing the labor intensity, and the effect is more obvious especially in the case of long-time driving and frequent shifting; meanwhile, the scheme can adapt to different models of the receiver gearbox assembly 3.
[0025] It should be noted that the hardware structure is improved in the utility model, and the software algorithm of the controller 2 is not improved, which meets the object requirements of the utility model.
[0026] In addition, the gearbox structure of shifting by the motor driving the shift head according to the utility model can have the following additional technical features:
[0027] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the stepping motor 5 includes the motors I 51 and II 52 arranged side by side, and the motors I 51 and II 52 are connected with the controller 2 through respective wire harnesses. Specifically, according to an embodiment of the utility model, the motor I 51 is a first gear motor, the first gear motor is connected with a first gear shift head, the first gear shift head drives a first gear tooth hub to engage with a first gear driven gear through a first gear shift fork, and first gear shifting is realized. The motor II 52 is a second / third gear motor, the second / third gear motor is connected with a second / third gear shift head through forward and reverse rotation control, the second / third gear shift head drives a second / third gear tooth hub to engage with a second gear driven gear or a third gear driven gear through a second / third gear shift fork, and second / third gear shifting is realized.
[0028] In the technical scheme, the motor I 51 is responsible for first gear shifting, and the motor II 52 is responsible for second / third gear shifting, which are connected with the controller 2 through independent wire harnesses, thereby realizing independent control of different gear shifting. The motor I 51 as a first gear motor directly drives the first gear shift head through mechanical connection. The first gear shift head is connected with the first gear shift fork, and the shift fork moves under the driving of the shift head, so that the first gear tooth hub engages with the first gear driven gear. The motor II 52 as a second / third gear motor controls the moving direction of the second / third gear shift head through forward and reverse rotation. When forward rotating, the shift head drives the second gear shift fork, so that the second gear tooth hub engages with the second gear driven gear; when reverse rotating, the shift head drives the third gear shift fork, so that the third gear tooth hub engages with the third gear driven gear.
[0029] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control button 1 is provided with four gears in sequence: N gear, first gear, second gear and third gear.
[0030] In this technical solution, the N gear is usually used as the start or pause position, which is convenient for the driver to use when starting, stopping or making a short stop; the first, second and third gears are arranged in the order of increasing power output, so that the driver can quickly select the appropriate gear according to driving needs.
[0031] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the controller 2 is installed in the fixed frame of the agricultural machinery, and the controller 2 has a built-in control board with a terminal interface connected to the wiring harness.

The terminal interfaces on the control board adopt a standardized structure, which facilitates the expansion of the range of agricultural machinery to which they are applicable.
[0033] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages:
[0034] This utility model connects the controller 2 to the control button 1 in the cab and the gearbox assembly 3 at the engine. At the same time, a shift mechanism 4 is installed on the top cover of the gearbox assembly 3, and a stepper motor 5 is installed on the side of the shift mechanism 4, thus constructing a gearbox structure in which the motor drives the shift head to achieve shifting, making shifting more precise and efficient.
[0035] The usage process of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0036] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the driver presses the corresponding gear position on control button 1 in the cab, such as N, first gear, second gear, or third gear. Control button 1 transmits the shift signal to controller 2 through the wiring harness. After receiving the signal, controller 2 controls the corresponding stepper motor 5. If it is a first gear shift, controller 2 starts motor I 51. Motor I 51 drives the first gear shift head to move to the neutral position and then rotates to the first gear position, causing the first gear shift fork and the first gear hub to mesh with the first gear driven gear. If it is a second / third gear shift, controller 2 starts motor II 52 to rotate in both directions, driving the second / third gear shift head to the corresponding position, causing the second / third gear shift fork and the hub to mesh with the corresponding driven gear, thus completing the second or third gear shift.
