Grain tank for combine harvesters

The innovation "relates to the grain tank on self-propelled vehicles Combine harvesters.

Such grain tanks are either completely at the top open or the upper opening can be folded up or removable cover plates.

According to the innovation, these cover plates are now designed or arranged in such a way that they are folded up Form a laterally closed box-shaped attachment above the grain tank opening. Through this the farmer is given the opportunity to increase the grain tank volume if, for example, from any Reasons for emptying in the field at any point in time is not appropriate or possible or else when cover is not required in good weather.

In the drawings, two exemplary embodiments - new innovations - are shown and in more detail below described.

Show it:

Pig. I the cross-section through a grain tank with cover plates folded up on all sides,

FIG. 2 is a top view of the tank opening for FIG. 1 in the closed state,

Pig. 3 an alternative version of the grain tank extension,

Pig. 4 is a plan view of FIG. 5 with the closed Tank opening,

Fig. 5 shows a further alternative embodiment in longitudinal section and

Fig. 6 is a plan view of Fig. 5-

- sheet 3 -

The one in Pig. Grain tank 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 has an opening 2 on its surface, which is covered by at least two metal sheets 3, 4 that are visible on the tank surface. Under or above these sheets 3, 4, two further sheets 5, β are hinged transversely to the latter. All sheet metal covers are connected to the tank walls 8 via hinges 7. DierÄbdeekbleche 3 * ¹ ^ s 5 * 6 lie opposite one another in pairs and are dimensioned in such a way that, when folded up, they form a spatial extension 11 seated on the grain tank opening 2 and locked on the abutting edges 9-10.

In the embodiment according to Fig. 3 and 4, the tank opening has 12 shows a square cross-section, which is formed by four parallel sheet metal deocles 13, 14, 15 * I6 "from * * - = is covered. The two outer covers 13, 16 are hinged on hinges 17, while hinged the middle cover 14, provided with handles 18, are detachably arranged. All lids are here formed at their abutting edges 19 in such a way that they can be plugged together and form a spatial extension 20 sitting on the grain tank 1.

In the embodiment according to FIGS. 5 and 6, the tank opening 21 can be folded through the hinges 22 in stored cover 23 »24 covered, which 'SieEln Support against each other when folded up.

- sheet k -

The lateral delimitation of the spatial expansion 25 thus formed is fixed by the
Lid 2k connected side plates 26 is formed. When the cover 2Ύ "Τη Has" is closed, these metal sheets protrude from the inside of the tank 27 (dashed illustration). The particular advantage of this design is that the "Tänlierwelterung" is closed at the top so that no moisture can get into the tank in bad weather.
