Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of agricultural machinery, and in particular to a gear shifting mechanism and agricultural machinery. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of agricultural technology, agricultural machinery of various structures, such as tractors, has been increasingly widely used in agricultural production activities.

[0003] During the operation of agricultural machinery such as tractors, different operating speeds are required. Therefore, a shifting mechanism is needed to switch the output speed of the gearbox. Currently used shifting mechanisms typically include several shift forks. During shifting, the shift forks disengage the sliding gear and move left and right along the corresponding axis to achieve different gear outputs. However, during shifting, because the shift forks can only hold against one end of the sliding gear, uneven movement of the sliding gear can easily occur, leading to unstable shifting operations and a short service life of the shifting mechanism.

[0004] In summary, how to provide a gear shifting mechanism with a simple structure, smooth shifting operation, and longer service life, as well as agricultural machinery including this gear shifting mechanism, has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. This description is merely illustrative and explanatory, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, those skilled in the art can combine the features in the embodiments described herein and in different embodiments according to the description in this document.

[0028] The embodiments of this utility model are as follows, please refer to them. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The shifting mechanism shown is used in agricultural machinery. Specifically, it includes a transfer case 1, within which an input shaft 2 and an output shaft 6 are respectively housed, arranged in parallel. The input shaft 2 has a fixed input tooth 16, and the output shaft 6 has a sliding tooth 8 that can slide left and right on the input shaft 2. The transfer case 1 also has a rotatable shaft 17, one end of which... Figure 1 The left end shown is provided with a rotatable dial 13, which is specifically located on one side of the sliding teeth 8. Figure 2 As shown on the left, when the rotating shaft 17 rotates, the sliding teeth 8 can be moved on the output shaft 6 by the shift head 13. This shifting mechanism, by setting the shift head 13 at one end of the rotating shaft 17, moves the sliding teeth 8 by shifting gears. This arrangement changes the contact between the shift head 13 and the sliding teeth 8 from the traditional point or line contact to surface contact, thus making the shifting operation smoother and extending the service life of the shifting mechanism. Furthermore, it has the advantages of simple structure and high practicality.

[0029] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1As shown, the shifting mechanism also includes a connecting part 12. One end of the connecting part 12, i.e., the upper end shown in the figure, is fixedly connected to the left end of the rotating shaft 17. The shift head 13 is rotatably disposed at the other end of the connecting part 12, i.e., the lower end shown in the figure. When the rotating shaft 17 rotates, it drives the connecting part 12 to rotate together. It should be noted that the connecting part 12 and the rotating shaft 17 can be a fixed connection or an integral structure.

[0030] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the connecting part 12 has a mounting hole at one end near the dial head 13, i.e., the lower end shown in the figure. One end of the dial head 13, i.e., the right end shown in the figure, is set in the mounting hole, and the dial head 13 and the mounting hole are fitted with a clearance fit, i.e., the dial head 13 can rotate in the mounting hole.

[0031] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the shifting mechanism also includes a control lever 9, which is located away from the end of the rotating shaft 17 opposite to the connecting part 12. Figure 1 The right end connection shown can drive the rotating shaft 17 to rotate a certain extent on the transfer case 1 when the control lever 9 is operated.

[0032] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transfer case 1 also contains two opposing first bearings 3. The left and right ends of the input shaft 2 are respectively mounted on the two first bearings 3 and can rotate within them. Furthermore, the transfer case 1 is also equipped with an end cover 4, which is detachably fixed to one end of the input shaft 2. Figure 2 Specifically, the end cap 4 can be fixed to the transfer case 1 by several connectors on the right end shown.

[0033] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the transfer case 1 is also equipped with two opposing second bearings 18. The two ends of the output shaft 6 are respectively mounted on the two second bearings 18 and can rotate on the second bearings 18. It should be noted that both the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 18 are preferably ball bearings.

[0034] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2As shown, the shifting mechanism also includes several first oil seals 5 and oil seal covers 7. The oil seal cover 7 is specifically fitted onto the output shaft 6, specifically located at the right end of the output shaft 6, and is detachably fixedly connected to the transfer case 1. Several first oil seals 5 are disposed between the oil seal cover 7 and the second bearing 18. It should be noted that the first oil seals 5 are preferably large-frame oil seals, and the number of them is preferably two. In addition, several second oil seals 10 are also provided at the connection between the control lever 9 and the rotating shaft 17. The second oil seals 10 are preferably small-frame oil seals, and the number of both the first oil seals 5 and the second oil seals 10 is preferably two. Furthermore, several sealing rings 11 that serve a sealing function are also provided on the surface where the rotating shaft 17 mates with the transfer case 1. The sealing rings 11 are fitted onto the rotating shaft, and the sealing rings 11 are preferably O-rings.

[0035] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, the output shaft 6 is also provided with a through hole (not shown in the figure), and a positioning spring 15 is provided in the through hole. The two ends of the positioning spring 15 are respectively provided with steel balls 14 for positioning.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments, in another embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2 As shown, a positioning hole 19 is also provided on the surface where the sliding tooth 8 mates with the output shaft 6. Part of the steel ball 14 can be placed in the positioning hole 19. At this time, the sliding tooth 8 is fixed on the output shaft 6.

[0037] The shifting mechanism of this structure has a shift head 13 set at one end of the rotating shaft 17. When shifting gears, the shift head 13 moves the sliding teeth 8. This setting changes the contact between the shift head 13 and the sliding teeth 8 from the traditional point or line contact to surface contact. Therefore, the shifting operation is smoother and the service life of the shifting mechanism is longer. In addition, it also has the advantages of simple structure and strong practicality.

[0038] On the other hand, this utility model also proposes an agricultural machine, including a gear shifting mechanism, which is the gear shifting mechanism described above.
