The invention provides a self-propelled corn harvester. The self-propelled corn harvester comprises an ear picking header, a lifting
system, a peeling
machine, a granary, a field returning mechanism, a rack, a driving axle, a steering axle, a hydraulic driving
system, a
transmission system, a driving
control system, a power
system, an electric appliance system and a
protection system. The ear picking header comprises a
plant channel, a reel, a detachable header front protective cover, an ear picking roller, a header rear protective cover and a reel chain, the reel protrudes towards the
plant channel, plants are guided into the
plant channel through the reel chain, the structure adopts a non-row-aligning technology, and harvesting can be well carried out. The granary main body is arranged on the movable frame, and the movable frame moves in a slide way arranged on the
fixed frame under the action of the oil cylinder; the safety mechanism is used for limiting and preventing falling after the oil cylinder extends out; the extension sliding plate is arranged above the granary body, a conveying mechanism is additionally arranged in the granary, the cluster stacking process is interfered, the volume
utilization rate of the granary is increased, the single-time harvesting time is effectively prolonged, and the harvesting efficiency is improved.
