An overload protection device of a rotary cultivator is simple in structure, an overflow valve is mounted on an
oil supply pipeline of a
hydraulic motor, and when a rotary blade or a rotary blade shaft touches an obstacle which cannot be
cut off,
hydraulic pressure at an oil inlet of the
hydraulic motor is increased suddenly, so that the overflow valve is opened to quickly release pressure, and the rotating speed and torque of the
hydraulic motor are quickly reduced; therefore,
impact is buffered, overload protection is achieved, and the rotary blade and the blade shaft can be protected. Meanwhile, after the rotary blade can rotate at a
low speed to bypass an obstacle, the
oil supply management
hydraulic pressure is lowered, the overflow valve is closed, so that normal
oil supply to the hydraulic motor is recovered, the working state of the rotary blade can be automatically recovered, manual operation is not needed, use is very convenient, and efficiency is high. In addition, a buffering
assembly can be additionally arranged, the transmission tile is driven to be far away from the cutter shaft through hydraulic force generated when the
oil pressure of the oil supply pipeline is increased suddenly, and therefore power between the rotary blade or the cutter shaft and the hydraulic motor is rapidly disconnected,
impact force is rapidly buffered, and overload protection performance is further improved.
