[0019] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. These drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 3 The track roller device for a tracked harvester shown includes a track roller shaft 9. Track roller assemblies are installed at both ends of the track roller shaft 9. Each track roller assembly includes a track roller 5 and a bearing cover 4. The track roller 5 is sleeved on both ends of the track roller shaft 9. The shaft body between the track roller 5 and the track roller shaft 9 is fitted with a bearing 7 and a skeleton oil seal 8 from the outside to the inside.
[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, there are two skeleton oil seals (8). Skeleton oil seals are relatively small in size. Due to their excellent sealing performance and wear resistance, skeleton oil seals are suitable for agricultural machinery, including small tracked harvesters. They effectively prevent lubricating oil leakage, protect mechanical parts from dirt and dust intrusion, thereby extending the service life of the equipment. They are typically used under extreme conditions such as high speed, high temperature, and high pressure. The reliability and durability of skeleton oil seals are crucial to ensuring the normal operation of equipment.
[0022] The support roller shaft 9 has a keyway on its shaft body, and a key 10 is installed in the keyway. Both ends of the support roller shaft 9 have screw holes 15, and bolts 1 are screwed into the screw holes 15. A flat washer 3 and a first spring washer 2 are inserted between the bolt 1 and the end face of the support roller shaft 9.
[0023] Among them, the first spring washer 2 is an annular sealing element with a certain elasticity. It can deform when subjected to pressure or compression, thereby providing elastic support and sealing effect. After the bolt 1 is tightened, it applies a force to the bolt 1, increasing the friction between the bolt 1 and the bolt hole, and preventing the bolt from loosening due to vibration of the equipment during operation.
[0024] There are two bearings 7. A spacer 6 is fitted on the shaft of the support roller 9 between the two bearings 7 to adjust the bearing clearance and preload, which helps to improve the stability and service life of the equipment.
[0025] The support roller 5 is equipped with a bearing cover 4 that matches it. The support roller 5 and the bearing cover 4 are connected by a locking bolt 12. A second spring washer 13 is provided between the locking bolt 12 and the bearing cover 4.
[0026] A combined spacer 11 is fitted on the axle between the support roller axle 9 and the support roller 5.
[0027] The inner wall of the combined spacer 11 is uniformly provided with several meshing teeth along the axial direction.
[0028] The combined spacer 11 features a simple structure, rapid adjustment, and high precision, significantly reducing equipment costs and shortening the parts processing cycle. Overall height adjustment is achieved by adjusting the meshing height between the upper and lower spacers, meeting slitting size requirements. Installation and maintenance are relatively simple, facilitating disassembly and replacement, thus improving maintenance efficiency.
[0029] Based on the above-described preferred embodiments of this utility model, and through the foregoing description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The technical scope of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the specification, but must be determined according to the scope of the claims.
