  In the above-described conventional configuration, the threshing apparatus is provided on the lateral side wall of the threshing apparatus when the threshing grain is transported and clogged while being transported by the feed chain when the traveling is stopped and the threshing process is performed. The operation of the manual operation switch can stop the operation of the feed chain. However, merely stopping the operation of the feed chain can not remove clogs such as clogged grain clogged in the feed chain. Therefore, after stopping the feed chain, the holding rail is separated from the feed chain and the threshing cylinder is raised by operating the operation switch provided in the operation unit to raise the upper side threshing part. So you can get rid of the pinch.

  As described above, in the conventional configuration, the manual switch operation has to be performed a plurality of times respectively at different places, which is troublesome.

  Therefore, there is a demand to be able to carry out the work of removing the pinched matter without inconvenience when it is impossible to continue the proper conveyance state due to clogging of the pinched matter or the like in the feed chain.

The characteristic configuration of the combine according to the present invention is
There is provided a threshing device for treating the tip end side of the reaper by means of a feed chain by means of a threshing cylinder provided in a throttling chamber and a receiving net,
The threshing device is provided with an upper side threshing division body supporting the threshing cylinder and a rail base supporting a clamping rail provided opposite to the upper side of the feed chain, and the upper side threshing division body , It is configured to be able to swing up and down around the fuselage longitudinal axis center, between a normal working position on the lower side and a rising position that has swung upward,

  According to the present invention, for example, the operator operates the stop instruction operation tool by manual operation when, for example, the grain clogs cause conveyance clogging or the like while being conveyed by the feed chain. Stop command When the drive stop is instructed by the operation tool, the control device operates the shutoff switching operation mechanism to switch the feed chain clutch to the shutoff state, and operates the lift actuator to set the upper side threshing split body Switch from the normal work position to the raised position.

  As described above, when the operator operates the stop command operation tool, the operation of the feed chain is stopped, and the upper side threshing divided body is lifted to separate the holding rail from the feed chain, and the threshing cylinder moves upward The treatment room is then opened. Thus, the worker can remove the pinched material caught in the feed chain.

  Therefore, it is possible to carry out the work of removing the pinched matter without any trouble when the feed chain is unable to continue the proper transport state due to clogging of the pinched matter or the like.

  In the present invention, an engine as a power source for driving each part of the machine is provided, and the control device preferably stops operation of the engine based on the operation of the stop commanding operation tool.

  According to this configuration, since the operation of the engine is stopped and the rotation of the threshing cylinder is stopped based on the operation of the stop commanding operation tool, it becomes easy to carry out the work of removing the pinched matter.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that the elevating actuator is a motorized actuator.

  According to this configuration, it is possible to raise the upper side threshing part by the electric actuator regardless of whether the engine is operating or not. Therefore, the upper threshing part can be raised from the normal work position to the raised position while the rotation of the threshing drum is stopped, and the threshing drum can be rotated during the raising operation of the upper threshing part There is no hindrance to the removal of the pinch due to the cause.

It is preferred to control the operation.

  Since the maintenance work is performed such as cleaning of the inside of the processing chamber and replacement of parts, it is necessary to open the processing chamber largely. On the other hand, the stop command operation tool is operated when removing the pinched material in the feed chain while the threshing operation is being performed, and it is not necessary to open the processing chamber so large.

  Therefore, according to the present configuration, when performing maintenance work, the operator operates the release instruction operation tool. When release is instructed by the release commanding operation tool, the control device operates the lifting and lowering actuator to lift the upper side threshing divided body to the maintenance lifting position. Such a large opening facilitates maintenance work.

  When the stop instruction operation tool is operated, when raising the upper side threshing split body, the second operation amount which is smaller than the first operation amount corresponding to the maintenance raising position is raised. As a result, it is possible to efficiently remove the pinch on the feed chain without rising more than necessary.

  As described above, by making the amount of rise of the upper side threshing part different according to the difference in work, maintenance work can be easily performed, and it becomes possible to efficiently perform the work of removing the sandwich.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that a braking mechanism is provided to apply a braking force to the rotation of the feed chain when the shutoff switching operation mechanism operates to switch the feed chain clutch to the shutoff state. is there.

  According to this configuration, when the shutoff switching operation mechanism operates, power transmission to the feed chain is cut off and the braking force is applied. Therefore, rotation by inertia force is prevented and the feed chain is quickly and reliably It can be deactivated.

When the second motor arm 105 swings, it abuts on the contact portion 107a provided on the detection arm 107, and the detection arm 107 swings integrally to detect the swing angle of the second motor arm 105. can do. The swing angle of the second motor arm 105 corresponds to the amount of pull operation of the release operation wire 101 by the blocking motor 100.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a stop switch 108 as a stop command operation tool that can be manually pressed and operated from the outer side of the machine is located in the outer cover 23 of the threshing device 6 near the transport start end of the feed chain 15. It is provided. The release mechanism 73 is configured to execute the release operation based on the operation of the stop switch 108. The control operation of the control device 43 based on the operation of the stop switch 108 will be described later.

  When the release operation wire 101 is pulled, the second holding arm 90 swings, and the pivotal connection point X3 between the first holding arm 89 and the second holding arm 90 swings one end of the first holding arm 89. If the first holding arm 89 and the second holding arm 90 are located on the rear side when the moving axis X2 and the swing line X4 at the other end of the second holding arm 90 are located on the rear side It bends, and the sliding movement to the rear side of the horizontal link 74 is permitted. A force acts on the horizontal link 74 in the direction of moving backward by the biasing force of the blocking coil spring 70, so if the pivot connection point X3 slightly exceeds the imaginary line (dead point) to the rear side , The horizontal link 74 moves backward quickly. As a result, the position holding by the position holding mechanism 71 is released.

  When the position holding by the position holding mechanism 71 is released, the second pressing arm 81, that is, the command stopping operation pin 84 swings in the direction of pressing the clutch operating arm 69. As a result, the shifter member 68 is rotated to shift the driven shift member 60 to switch the feed chain clutch 49 to the disengaged state.

  The driven side shift member 60 is switched to the blocking state, and is pressed by the braking mechanism 64 by the biasing force of the blocking coil spring 70 to apply the braking force. The rotation due to the inertial force of the feed chain 15 can be suppressed and the stop can be made quickly. As described above, when the feed chain clutch 49 is stopped by the command stop operation mechanism 66, the stop state is maintained until the position holding mechanism 71 is returned to the position holding state. After the position holding mechanism 71 is returned to the position holding state, the biasing force of the spring 94 causes the first holding arm 89 and the second holding arm 90 to bend to the front side and return to the swinging state.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the release operation wire 101 is provided in parallel with the horizontal link 74 in a plan view, and the transmission belt 51 as an endless rotating body for transmitting power to the drive shaft 50 is a horizontal link 74 and The space between the release operation wire 101 and the release operation wire 101 is used to pass vertically.

[Interlocking operation mechanism]
When the reaper 3 is raised to a predetermined height position (non-removal work position) or more, an interlock stop operation mechanism 109 is provided which operates the operation unit 65 to switch the feed chain clutch 49 into the disconnection state. As shown in FIG. 11, the interlocking stop operation mechanism 109 includes a swing arm 110 swinging along with the raising and lowering of the reaper 3, a push action portion 111 pressing on the clutch operation arm 69, and the swing arm 110. The interlocking operation wire 112 etc. which link with the pushing action part 111 are provided.

  The swinging arm 110 is swingably supported around a swinging axis X5 oriented in the left-right direction. The swinging arm 110 is switched to the raising position Pr and the lowering position Pd according to the raising and lowering of the reaper 3. Specifically, the swinging arm 110 is switched to the rising position Pr when the reaper 3 rises to the non-removal work position, and is switched to the lower position Pd when the reaper 3 falls to the reaping work position.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the push action portion 111 is provided at a position close to the opposite side to the side on which the command stop operation pin 84 acts in the longitudinal direction in the clutch operation arm 69. The push acting portion 111 includes a support shaft 113 fixedly supported on the side wall 6A of the threshing device 6, a boss portion 114 rotatably fitted on the support shaft 113, and a circumferential direction from an outer peripheral portion of the boss portion 114. Two arms 115 and 116 extending radially outward in a substantially L shape in plan view are provided at different positions, and a return spring 117 is provided.

  One first arm 115 of the two arms extends integrally from the boss portion 114 toward the left side. The interlocking operation wire 112 is linked to the swinging end of the first arm 115 via a stroke absorbing spring 119. The other second arm 116 of the two arms is integrally extended rearward from the boss portion 114. At the swinging end of the second arm 116, an interlocking stop operating pin 120 is provided which can be pressed by bringing the clutch operating arm 69 into contact.

  When the interlocking operation wire 112 is pulled, the first arm 115 and the second arm 116 swing around the axial center X6 of the support shaft 113 in the clockwise direction in plan view. Along with that, the interlocking stop operation pin 120 swings in the direction of pressing the clutch operation arm 69. As a result, the shifter member 68 is rotated to shift the driven shift member 60 to switch the feed chain clutch 49 to the disengaged state.

  Also in this case, as in the case of the command stop operation mechanism 66, the driven shift member 60 is switched to the blocking state, and is pressed by the braking mechanism 64 by the large biasing force of the blocking coil spring 70 to apply the braking force. Be done. By braking, it is possible to suppress the rotation of the feed chain 15 due to the inertial force and to stop it quickly.

  When the interlocking operation wire 112 is not pulled, the interlocking stop operation pin 120 is moved away from the clutch operation arm 69 by the biasing force of the return spring 117, and the clutch operation arm 69 is attached with the coil spring 63. It is returned to the in position by the force.

[Buffering mechanism]
The buffer mechanism in cooperation with the operation unit 65 in the command stop operation mechanism 66 and the interlocked stop operation mechanism 109 will be described.
A first buffer mechanism K1 linking the command stop operation mechanism 66 to the operation unit 65, and a second buffer mechanism K2 linking the interlock stop operation mechanism 109 to the operation unit 65 are provided. When one of the command stop operation mechanism 66 and the interlocked stop operation mechanism 109 performs switching to the shutoff state, the buffer mechanism K2 performs the operation force of one mechanism, the command stop operation mechanism 66 and the interlock stop operation mechanism It is configured not to be transmitted to the other mechanism 109.

  To add the description, as described above, the mechanism by which the command stop operation pin 84 in the command stop operation mechanism 66 contacts and pushes the clutch operation arm 69 in the operation unit 65 is the first buffer mechanism K1. is there. The second buffer mechanism K2 is a mechanism in which the interlocking stop operation pin 120 in the interlocking stop operation mechanism 109 is brought into contact with the clutch operation arm 69 in the operation unit 65 to push it.

  When the switching operation is performed by the interlocking stop operation mechanism 109, as shown in FIG. 10, the first buffer mechanism K1 separates the command stop operation mechanism 66 from the clutch operation arm 69 to operate the interlocking stop operation mechanism 109. The force is not transmitted to the command stop operation mechanism 66. When the switching operation is performed by the command stop operation mechanism 66, the second buffer mechanism K2 separates the interlock stop operation mechanism 109 from the clutch operation arm 69 as shown in FIG. Is not transmitted to the interlocking stop operation mechanism 109.

  The operation unit 65 is configured to switch the feed chain clutch 49 to the disengaged state by rotating the clutch operation arm 69 in a predetermined direction (left direction in FIG. 8). When the command stop operation pin 84 contacts the clutch operation arm 69 and pushes it so as to turn in a predetermined direction, the interlock stop operation pin 120 is separated from the clutch operation arm 69, so interlocking stop is performed. The operating force is not transmitted to the operating pin 120.

  When the interlocking stop operation pin 120 contacts the clutch operation arm 69 and pushes it so as to turn in a predetermined direction, the instruction stop operation pin 84 separates from the clutch operation arm 69. The operating force is not transmitted to the operating pin 84.

  Therefore, switching the feed chain clutch 49 to the disengaged state when the reaper 3 rises to a predetermined height position, and stopping the feed chain clutch 49 when operating alone, are smoothly performed separately. And it can be done quickly.

Feed chain stop processing for operating the release mechanism 73 in the mechanism 67 to stop driving the feed chain 15, engine stop processing for stopping the operation of the engine 9, threshing part raising processing for switching the upper side threshing segment 30 to the raised position Each is configured to run.

The feed chain stop processing will be described.
The control device 43 operates the shutoff motor 100 so that the second holding arm 90 moves to a preset position to release the contact restriction state with the first holding arm 89 according to the detection value of the potentiometer 102. . As a result, the release operation wire 101 is pulled, and the position holding in the position holding mechanism 71 is released, and the feed chain clutch 49 is switched to the disconnection state.

The engine stop processing will be described.
The control device 43 instructs the engine control unit 121 to perform control information for stopping the operation of the engine 9. The engine control unit 121 stops the operation of the engine 9 by processing such as, for example, stopping the fuel supply to the engine 9 by operating the fuel shutoff valve provided in the fuel supply passage.

A threshing part raising process is demonstrated.
The controller 43 controls the electric hydraulic cylinder 38 to raise the upper side threshing split body 30 by a second operation amount smaller than the first operation amount corresponding to the maintenance raising position based on the detection value of the height sensor 42. Control the operation of (see Figure 4). The maintenance elevation position can be set in a plurality of stages by the level setter 45, but the second operation amount is a small operation amount which is lower than any of the plurality of maintenance elevation positions. In the case of operation by the stop switch 108, in many cases it is possible to remove the sandwich such as grain scale or foreign matter pinched in the feed chain 15, and the second set amount is set to the amount of increase necessary to remove the sandwich. Be done. Although the raised position for maintenance is not shown, the raised position for maintenance is largely open to the extent that cleaning of the mesh 21 and the threshing drum 20 inside the throttling chamber 19 and replacement of parts can be performed.
