Description

本発明は、汎用コンバイン等に搭載されて、刈り取られた作物を扱胴の回転により受網との間を搬送しながら脱穀する脱穀装置に関する。 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a threshing apparatus mounted on a general-purpose combine or the like to thresh while conveying harvested crops between a receiving net by rotation of a threshing cylinder.

一般的に、汎用コンバインは、刈取部により刈り取られた作物を脱穀する脱穀装置を備えている。従来から、回転する筒状の扱胴(ローターとも呼ぶ)の外周面に螺旋状のブレードを設け、隣り合うブレードの間に掛止部材を設けた脱穀装置が提案されている(特許文献1)。一般的に、トウモロコシのような作物は、扱胴が回転する回転方向に対して直交する横向き姿勢で搬送された場合に、扱胴に設けられた扱歯等に引っ掛かり、受網に押し付けられた状態で扱胴に連れ回り脱穀作用を受けやすい。他方、トウモロコシが扱胴の回転方向に対して並行する縦向き姿勢で搬送された場合には、トウモロコシがブレードの間に入り脱穀作用を受けないまま機外に排出されやすい。そこで、特許文献1に記載の脱穀装置では、作物を掛止部材によって受網側に案内することで、トウモロコシのような作物でも脱穀されずに機外に排出されないようにしている。 Generally, a general-purpose combine is equipped with a threshing device for threshing crops harvested by a harvesting unit. Conventionally, a threshing apparatus has been proposed in which helical blades are provided on the outer peripheral surface of a rotating cylindrical threshing cylinder (also called a rotor), and a locking member is provided between adjacent blades (Patent Document 1). . In general, when a crop such as corn is conveyed in a lateral orientation perpendicular to the direction of rotation of the drum, it is caught by the bristle tooth or the like provided on the drum and pressed against the receiving net. In such a state, it is easy to be subjected to threshing action as it rotates with the threshing drum. On the other hand, when the corn is transported vertically parallel to the direction of rotation of the threshing cylinder, the corn tends to enter between the blades and be discharged out of the machine without being subjected to the threshing action. Therefore, in the threshing apparatus described in Patent Document 1, by guiding the crops to the receiving net side by the hooking member, even crops such as corn are prevented from being discharged out of the machine without being threshed.

上述したように、上記特許文献1に記載の装置では、掛止部材によりトウモロコシを受網側に案内することで、作物が脱穀されないまま機外に排出されることを防止している。しかしながら、従来では脱穀作用が十分でなく、機体外へ排出される作物に「扱ぎ残し」が生じることがあった。 As described above, in the apparatus described in Patent Document 1, the hooking member guides the corn to the receiving net side, thereby preventing the unthreshed crop from being discharged to the outside of the machine. However, the conventional threshing action was not sufficient, and there were cases where "unhandled" crops were discharged out of the machine.

そこで、本発明は例えトウモロコシのような作物であっても、扱ぎ残しの生じ難い脱穀性能を向上させた脱穀装置を提供することを目的とする。 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a threshing apparatus with improved threshing performance that makes it difficult for unhandled crops to occur even for crops such as corn.

なお、上記カッコ内の符号は、図面と対照するためのものであるが、これにより特許請求の範囲の記載に何等影響を及ぼすものではない。 The reference numerals in parentheses are for comparison with the drawings, but they do not affect the description of the claims.

請求項1に係る本発明によると、ブレードの間に配設された扱ぎ部材において、作物を受網に掛けた状態で扱胴と共に回転させて脱穀させる第一脱穀部から搬送される作物が、第二脱穀部により受網との間に挟まれた状態で脱穀される。したがって、例えトウモロコシのような作物であっても扱ぎ残しの生じ難い、脱穀性能を向上させた脱穀装置を提供できる。即ち、脱穀前のトウモロコシがブレードに従って扱ぎ部材へと確実に案内され、扱ぎ部材により受網に押し付けられながら搬送されて、トウモロコシの脱穀作用が促進されるので、脱穀装置の脱穀性能を向上することができる。 According to the first aspect of the present invention, the threshing member disposed between the blades rotates together with the threshing drum while the crop is hung on the receiving net to thresh the crop conveyed from the first threshing section. , and the second threshing part thresh while being sandwiched between the receiving net and the second threshing part. Therefore, it is possible to provide a threshing apparatus with improved threshing performance that hardly leaves even crops such as corn left unhandled. That is, the corn before threshing is reliably guided to the threshing member according to the blade and conveyed while being pressed against the receiving net by the threshing member, thereby promoting the threshing action of the corn, thereby improving the threshing performance of the threshing device. can do.

請求項2に係る本発明によると、第二脱穀部は、反回転方向における長さが扱胴の径方向におけるブレードの先端と受網との隙間よりも長くに形成されているため、脱穀作用がより促進されて、第一脱穀部では脱穀しきれずに扱ぎ残しがある作物であっても穀粒を脱穀することができる。 According to the second aspect of the present invention, the length of the second threshing part in the anti-rotational direction is longer than the gap between the tip of the blade and the receiving net in the radial direction of the threshing cylinder. is further promoted, and grains can be threshed in the first threshing section even for crops that have not been completely threshed and have leftovers.

請求項3に係る本発明によると、突出部により第二脱穀部において受網との隙間を狭め、トウモロコシを受網により確実に押し付けながら搬送することができる。これにより、作物が標準より小さいトウモロコシである場合でも、トウモロコシを第二脱穀部と受網とで強く挟んで搬送するので、扱ぎ残しを少なくして脱穀することができるようになる。 According to the third aspect of the present invention, the gap between the second threshing section and the receiving net is narrowed by the projecting portion, and the corn can be conveyed while being reliably pressed by the receiving net. As a result, even if the crop is corn smaller than the standard size, the corn is strongly sandwiched between the second threshing unit and the receiving net and conveyed, so that the corn can be threshed with less unhandled corn.

請求項4に係る本発明によると、扱ぎ部材は回転軸線方向において隣り合うブレード間において扱胴の外周面に固定されるので、扱ぎ部材を扱胴に取り付けることが容易にできる。 According to the fourth aspect of the present invention, the shaving members are fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the scouring cylinder between the blades adjacent to each other in the direction of the rotation axis, so that the scouring members can be easily attached to the scouring cylinder.

請求項5に係る本発明によると、扱ぎ部材は補強リブと係合してブレードに取り付けられるので、作物を脱穀する際に係る負荷により撓んで変形し難い。また、扱ぎ部材を取り付ける際の位置決めが容易となる。 According to the fifth aspect of the present invention, since the handling member is attached to the blade by engaging with the reinforcing rib, it is difficult to bend and deform due to the load applied when threshing the crops. In addition, it becomes easier to position the handling member when attaching it.

It is threshed by being sandwiched between 32 and the receiving net 50 and conveyed. In this embodiment, the tines 31 are removed and the threshing members 32 are attached when threshing corn, and the threshing members 32 are removed and the tines 31 are attached when threshing rice, wheat, or the like.

即ち、扱ぎ部材32は、上記した扱歯31と交換可能に扱歯31の取り付け孔に固定部材として共通のネジ300によって固定される。図4では、2つの扱歯31を扱ぎ部材32に交換した場合を例に示している。そして、扱ぎ部材32は、補強リブ35と係合してラセン羽根90に取り付けられて、扱胴30の外周面に配設される。勿論、これに限らず、扱ぎ部材32は扱胴30の外周面にネジ等によって固定されるようにしてもよい。ただし、扱ぎ部材32が補強リブ35と係合してラセン羽根90に取り付けられると、トウモロコシを脱穀する際に係る負荷により撓んで変形し難くなるので好ましい。また、扱ぎ部材32を取り付ける際の位置決めが容易となる。さらに、扱歯31に変えて扱ぎ部材32を取り付けることで、扱胴30においてウェイト偏重を生じさせることなく扱ぎ部材32を均等配置することが容易になる。扱ぎ部材32の詳しい構成については後述する(図7(a)及び図7(b)参照)。 That is, the treating member 32 is fixed to the attachment hole of the treating tooth 31 by a common screw 300 as a fixing member so as to be replaceable with the treating tooth 31 described above. FIG. 4 shows an example in which two handling teeth 31 are replaced with a handling member 32 . The handling member 32 is attached to the spiral blade 90 in engagement with the reinforcing rib 35 and arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the handling cylinder 30 . Of course, the handling member 32 is not limited to this, and the handling member 32 may be fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the handling cylinder 30 with a screw or the like. However, when the handling member 32 is attached to the spiral blade 90 by engaging the reinforcing ribs 35, it is preferable because it is less likely to bend and deform due to the load associated with threshing the corn. In addition, the positioning when attaching the handling member 32 is facilitated. Further, by attaching the shaving members 32 instead of the shaving teeth 31, it becomes easy to evenly dispose the shaving members 32 without causing uneven weight distribution on the squeezing cylinder 30.例文帳に追加A detailed configuration of the handling member 32 will be described later (see FIGS. 7(a) and 7(b)).

なお、本実施形態では、扱ぎ部材32が補強リブ35と係合する補強リブ35の近傍でラセン羽根90に取り付けられるようにしたが、これに限らず、補強リブ35の近傍以外の箇所で補強リブ35と係合させることなく取り付けできるようにしてもよい。 In the present embodiment, the handling member 32 is attached to the spiral blade 90 in the vicinity of the reinforcing rib 35 that engages the reinforcing rib 35. It may be possible to attach without engaging the reinforcing ribs 35 .

次に、受網50について、図2を参照しながら図4乃至図6を用いて説明する。図4に示すように、受網50は正面(扱胴30の回転軸線方向)から見て扱胴30下部の外周面に沿って円弧形状に形成されている。 Next, the receiving network 50 will be explained using FIGS. 4 to 6 while referring to FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the receiving net 50 is formed in an arc shape along the outer peripheral surface of the lower portion of the handling cylinder 30 when viewed from the front (in the direction of the rotation axis of the handling cylinder 30).

図5に示すように、受網50は、複数の縦桟51、52と、複数の横棒53と、枠体54とにより格子状に形成された格子網である。横棒53は扱胴30の回転軸線方向に沿って延びる丸棒部材からなり、扱胴30の周方向に複数の横棒53が並設されている。縦桟51、52は扱胴30の回転方向(周方向)に沿う円弧状の板部材からなり、扱胴30の回転軸線方向に複数の縦桟51、52が並設されている。 As shown in FIG. 5 , the receiving net 50 is a lattice net formed of a plurality of vertical beams 51 and 52 , a plurality of horizontal bars 53 and a frame 54 . The horizontal bar 53 is formed of a round bar member extending along the direction of the rotation axis of the handling cylinder 30 , and a plurality of horizontal bars 53 are arranged side by side in the circumferential direction of the handling cylinder 30 . The vertical beams 51 and 52 are made of arc-shaped plate members extending in the rotational direction (circumferential direction) of the drum 30, and a plurality of vertical beams 51 and 52 are arranged side by side in the direction of the rotation axis of the drum 30. As shown in FIG.

複数の縦桟51、52には、回転軸線方向に所定の間隔に配置され、両端が枠体54に溶接された複数の溶接縦桟51と、隣り合う溶接縦桟51間に配置されるとともに両端が枠体54に着脱自在に取付けられる複数の着脱縦桟52とが含まれる。即ち、図5に示すように、枠体54、複数の溶接縦桟51及び複数の横棒53を溶接して受網50を構成し、この受網50において隣り合う溶接縦桟51間に着脱縦桟52を着脱自在に取り付ける。着脱縦桟52は受網50の裏側つまり扱胴30に面する側の反対側に、着脱縦桟52の上下両端がネジ56により枠体54に取り付けられている。 The plurality of vertical bars 51 and 52 are arranged at predetermined intervals in the rotation axis direction, and are arranged between a plurality of welded vertical bars 51 whose both ends are welded to the frame body 54 and between the adjacent welded vertical bars 51. A plurality of detachable longitudinal beams 52 are included which are detachably attached at both ends to a frame 54 . That is, as shown in FIG. 5, a frame 54, a plurality of welded vertical bars 51 and a plurality of horizontal bars 53 are welded together to form a receiving net 50. A vertical bar 52 is detachably attached. The detachable vertical beam 52 is attached to the frame body 54 with screws 56 at both upper and lower ends of the detachable vertical beam 52 on the back side of the receiving net 50 , that is, on the side opposite to the side facing the handling cylinder 30 .

なお、ここでは説明を省略したが、複数の横棒53に関しても、回転軸線方向の両端が枠体54に溶接された複数の溶接横棒と、隣り合う溶接横棒間に配置されるとともに両端が枠体54に着脱自在に取付けられる複数の着脱横棒とが含まれていてよい。こうすると、目合いのサイズが変更可能となって、受網50は、着脱縦桟52(また着脱横棒)の選択的な着脱(又は位置変更)に基づいて、トウモロコシ以外の作物(例えば、稲、麦、大豆、ソバなど)を脱穀する場合でも使用できるようになるので好ましい。 Although the description is omitted here, the plurality of horizontal rods 53 also include a plurality of welded horizontal rods welded to the frame 54 at both ends in the rotation axis direction, and are arranged between adjacent welded horizontal rods and may include a plurality of detachable crossbars detachably attached to frame 54; In this way, the size of the mesh can be changed, and the receiving net 50 can be adjusted to crops other than corn (e.g., Rice, wheat, soybeans, buckwheat, etc.) can be used even when threshing, which is preferable.

図6に示すように、上記の着脱縦桟52には、複数の横棒53との干渉を回避するための切欠き521が形成され、着脱縦桟52は切欠き521に複数の横棒53が嵌合された状態で枠体54に取り付けられる。また、本実施形態の場合、着脱縦桟52には、補強プレート55がネジ56により着脱自在に取り付けられる。補強プレート55には、着脱縦桟52との間で横棒53を挟持するための溝部55aが形成されている。即ち、着脱縦桟52は補強プレート55を取り付けることにより、切欠き521に嵌合された横棒53に抜止される。したがって、着脱縦桟52はネジ56だけでなく補強プレート55も取り外されていないと、枠体54から取り外されない。 As shown in FIG. 6, the detachable vertical rail 52 is formed with a notch 521 for avoiding interference with the plurality of horizontal bars 53 , and the detachable vertical rail 52 is formed with the plurality of horizontal rods 53 in the notch 521 . are fitted to the frame body 54 . Further, in the case of this embodiment, a reinforcing plate 55 is detachably attached to the detachable vertical beam 52 with screws 56 . The reinforcement plate 55 is formed with a groove portion 55a for sandwiching the horizontal bar 53 with the detachable vertical beam 52 . That is, by attaching the reinforcing plate 55 , the detachable vertical beam 52 is retained by the horizontal rod 53 fitted in the notch 521 . Therefore, the detachable vertical bar 52 cannot be removed from the frame 54 unless the reinforcing plate 55 as well as the screw 56 are removed.

上記のように、補強プレート55を着脱縦桟52に取り付けることにより、着脱縦桟52の剛性を向上させることができる。即ち、着脱縦桟52に補強プレート55を取り付けていない場合には、扱胴30と受網50との間に穀粒が滞留すると、滞留した穀粒による荷重によって着脱縦桟52が変形する虞があった。そこで、本実施形態のように、着脱縦桟52に補強プレート55を取り付けた場合には、着脱縦桟52の剛性を向上させることができるので、例え穀粒や穂軸が滞留して受網50に荷重が生じても、着脱縦桟52は変形し難い。また、補強プレート55は、着脱縦桟52の切欠き521に嵌合された着脱横棒が外力で切欠き521から外れるのを防止する。 By attaching the reinforcing plate 55 to the removable vertical bar 52 as described above, the rigidity of the removable vertical bar 52 can be improved. That is, when the reinforcing plate 55 is not attached to the detachable vertical beam 52, if the grains remain between the hauling drum 30 and the receiving net 50, the detachable vertical beam 52 may be deformed by the load of the accumulated grains. was there. Therefore, when the reinforcing plate 55 is attached to the detachable vertical beam 52 as in the present embodiment, the rigidity of the detachable vertical beam 52 can be improved. Even if a load is applied to the vertical beam 50, the removable vertical beam 52 is not easily deformed. Further, the reinforcing plate 55 prevents the detachable horizontal bar fitted in the notch 521 of the detachable vertical beam 52 from coming off the notch 521 due to an external force.

なお、図6に示すように、補強プレート55は扱胴30の回転軸線方向から見て、着脱縦桟52の内周を通る曲線Yよりも扱胴30側に突出するように形成されているのが好ましい。こうすると、回転軸線方向へのトウモロコシの搬送が抑制され、扱胴30と受網50とによるトウモロコシの脱穀を促進することができ有利である。ただし、補強プレート55は、回転方向(矢印X方向)上流側の先端エッジ部550が曲線Yよりも扱胴30側に突出しないように形成されているのが望ましい。これは、仮に先端エッジ部550が曲線Yよりも扱胴30側に突出していると、脱穀され回転方向に搬送される穀粒が先端エッジ部550に当たることで、穀粒が欠けたり割れたりする虞があるからである。これに対し、本実施形態では、先端エッジ部550が曲線Yよりも扱胴30側に突出していないために、穀粒が先端エッジ部550に当たっても欠けや割れが生じ難くなる。 As shown in FIG. 6, the reinforcing plate 55 is formed so as to protrude toward the handling cylinder 30 from a curve Y passing through the inner circumference of the detachable vertical beam 52 when viewed from the rotation axis direction of the handling cylinder 30. is preferred. This is advantageous in that the corn is suppressed from being conveyed in the direction of the axis of rotation, and the threshing of the corn by the threshing drum 30 and the receiving net 50 is facilitated. However, the reinforcing plate 55 is desirably formed so that the tip edge portion 550 on the upstream side in the rotational direction (the direction of the arrow X) does not protrude beyond the curve Y toward the handling cylinder 30 side. This is because if the tip edge portion 550 protrudes toward the threshing cylinder 30 side from the curve Y, the grains that are threshed and conveyed in the rotating direction hit the tip edge portion 550, and the grains are chipped or cracked. It is because there is a fear. On the other hand, in the present embodiment, since the front edge portion 550 does not protrude from the curve Y toward the handling cylinder 30 side, even if the grain hits the front edge portion 550, chipping or cracking is less likely to occur.

<第一実施形態>
次に、扱ぎ部材32について、図3、図4を参照しながら図7(a)及び図7(b)を用いて説明する。本実施形態では、上述したように、主にトウモロコシを脱穀するために、扱胴30には複数の扱ぎ部材32が隣り合うラセン羽根90の間に着脱自在に配設されている。なお、扱ぎ部材32は例えば扱胴30の回転軸40の回転中心を基準とした所定の位相角毎(例えば45°毎)に配置されるのが好ましい。
<First Embodiment>
Next, the handling member 32 will be described using FIGS. 7(a) and 7(b) while referring to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG. In this embodiment, as described above, mainly for threshing corn, a plurality of threshing members 32 are detachably arranged between adjacent spiral blades 90 on the threshing barrel 30 . It is preferable that the handling members 32 are arranged at predetermined phase angles (for example, every 45°) with respect to the rotation center of the rotating shaft 40 of the handling cylinder 30, for example.

扱ぎ部材32は、第一脱穀部321と、第二脱穀部322と、側壁部323、324とを有する。第一脱穀部321と第二脱穀部322とは板材を折り曲げることによって形成され、その板材が回転軸線方向の両端部において側壁部323、324によって保持されることで扱ぎ部材32として一体的に構成されている。側壁部323、324には、扱ぎ部材32をネジ300によってラセン羽根90に取り付けるための取付孔326と、上記した補強リブ35と係合可能な切欠き部325とが形成されている。 The threshing member 32 has a first threshing part 321 , a second threshing part 322 , and side walls 323 , 324 . The first threshing part 321 and the second threshing part 322 are formed by bending a plate material, and the plate material is held by side wall parts 323 and 324 at both ends in the direction of the rotation axis, so that the threshing member 32 is integrally formed. It is configured. Side wall portions 323 and 324 are provided with attachment holes 326 for attaching the treating member 32 to the spiral blade 90 with screws 300, and cutout portions 325 engageable with the reinforcing ribs 35 described above.

図7(a)に示すように、第一脱穀部321は回転方向(矢印X方向)の下流側において、扱胴30の外周面から遠ざかるにつれ扱胴30の回転方向と反対の反回転方向に傾斜して形成されている。第一脱穀部321では、トウモロコシを受網50に掛けた状態で扱胴30と共に回転させて脱穀する。即ち、第一脱穀部321ではトウモロコシが扱胴30側から受網50へと搬送され、トウモロコシが受網50に掛かった状態で押し付けられながら扱胴30とともに回転することで脱穀される。 As shown in FIG. 7( a ), the first threshing part 321 rotates in the counter-rotational direction opposite to the rotation direction of the threshing cylinder 30 as it moves away from the outer peripheral surface of the threshing cylinder 30 on the downstream side of the rotation direction (arrow X direction). It is slanted. In the first threshing section 321, the corn is threshed by rotating it together with the threshing drum 30 while being hooked on the receiving net 50.例文帳に追加That is, in the first threshing section 321, the corn is conveyed from the side of the threshing cylinder 30 to the receiving net 50, and is threshed by rotating together with the threshing cylinder 30 while being pressed against the receiving net 50. - 特許庁

他方、第二脱穀部322は回転方向の上流側で第一脱穀部321に連続し、扱胴30の径方向においてラセン羽根90の先端90aよりも受網50側に突出するように形成されている。第二脱穀部322では、第一脱穀部321から搬送されてくるトウモロコシを受網50との間に挟んだ状態で扱胴30の回転に伴って反回転方向に回転させながら移動させることにより、第一脱穀部321では脱穀しきれずに穂軸に残った扱ぎ残しの穀粒を脱穀できるようにしている。 On the other hand, the second threshing part 322 is continuous with the first threshing part 321 on the upstream side in the rotational direction, and is formed so as to protrude toward the receiving net 50 from the tip 90a of the spiral blade 90 in the radial direction of the threshing drum 30. there is In the second threshing section 322, the corn conveyed from the first threshing section 321 is sandwiched between the receiving net 50 and moved while being rotated in the counter-rotational direction as the threshing drum 30 rotates. The first threshing unit 321 is configured to thresh the leftover kernels left on the cob without being completely threshed.

第二脱穀部322の反回転方向における長さは、第一脱穀部321と第二脱穀部322とを形成する板材の厚さよりも長く、また脱穀するトウモロコシの穂軸の直径よりも長い。本実施形態では、第二脱穀部322の反回転方向における長さが、扱胴30の径方向におけるラセン羽根90の先端90aと受網50との隙間(S3、図4参照)よりも長くに形成されている。これにより、トウモロコシが第二脱穀部322と受網50とにより挟まれた状態で搬送される時間を確保している。第二脱穀部322の長さは、例えば「50mm」に設定される。 The length of the second threshing part 322 in the counter-rotational direction is longer than the thickness of the plate material forming the first threshing part 321 and the second threshing part 322, and longer than the diameter of the cob of corn to be threshed. In this embodiment, the length of the second threshing part 322 in the anti-rotation direction is longer than the gap (S3, see FIG. 4) between the tip 90a of the spiral blade 90 and the receiving net 50 in the radial direction of the threshing drum 30. formed. This secures the time during which the corn is transported while being sandwiched between the second threshing section 322 and the receiving net 50 . The length of the second threshing part 322 is set to, for example, "50 mm".

ラセン羽根90の先端90aと受網50との隙間(S3)は、図4に示すように、扱歯31の先端31aと受網50との隙間(S1、例えば6mm)よりも長く、また第二脱穀部322と受網50との隙間(S2、例えば22mm)よりも長く(S1<S2<S3)、例えば「28mm」に設定される。他方、第二脱穀部322と受網50との隙間(S2)は、脱穀するトウモロコシの穂軸の直径と略同じ程度か、それより僅かに狭い(例えば、1~3mm程度狭い)程度に設定される。 The gap (S3) between the tip 90a of the spiral blade 90 and the receiving net 50 is, as shown in FIG. It is longer (S1<S2<S3) than the gap (S2, for example, 22 mm) between the second threshing section 322 and the receiving net 50, and is set to, for example, "28 mm." On the other hand, the gap (S2) between the second threshing part 322 and the receiving net 50 is set to be approximately the same as the diameter of the corncob to be threshed or slightly narrower (for example, narrower by about 1 to 3 mm). be done.

以上のように、本実施形態では、扱ぎ部材32が隣り合うラセン羽根90の間に配設され、トウモロコシが扱ぎ部材32の第一脱穀部321に掛け止めされ、トウモロコシが受網50に押し付けられながら扱胴30の回転に従って移動される。これによると、脱穀前のトウモロコシをラセン羽根90によって扱ぎ部材32に確実に案内することができ、扱ぎ部材32でトウモロコシを受網50に押し付けるので、脱穀性能が良い。それ故、多くの穀粒が穂軸から脱穀される。そして、第一脱穀部321により多くの穀粒が脱穀されたトウモロコシは、第一脱穀部321から第二脱穀部322へと搬送され、第二脱穀部322と受網50とに挟まれた状態で扱胴30の回転に伴って移動される。第二脱穀部322の反回転方向における長さは、第一脱穀部321と第二脱穀部322とを形成する板材の厚さよりも長く、また脱穀するトウモロコシの穂軸の直径よりも長い。また、第二脱穀部322と受網50との隙間(S2)がトウモロコシの穂軸の直径と略同じ程度かそれより僅かに狭い程度に設定されている。それ故、第二脱穀部322と受網50とに挟まれた状態で移動される際に、トウモロコシを受網50に確実に押し付けることができ、もって扱ぎ残しのある穂軸から穀粒を脱穀することができるようになる。このようにして、例え穂軸が固く太いトウモロコシのような作物であっても、扱ぎ残しを減らすことができる。 As described above, in this embodiment, the threshing members 32 are arranged between the adjacent spiral blades 90, the corn is hooked to the first threshing part 321 of the threshing member 32, and the corn is caught on the receiving net 50. It is moved according to the rotation of the handling cylinder 30 while being pressed. According to this, the corn before threshing can be surely guided to the threshing member 32 by the spiral blade 90, and the corn is pressed against the receiving net 50 by the threshing member 32, so that the threshing performance is excellent. Therefore, many grains are threshed from the cob. Then, the corn from which many grains have been threshed by the first threshing section 321 is conveyed from the first threshing section 321 to the second threshing section 322 and sandwiched between the second threshing section 322 and the receiving net 50. is moved as the handling cylinder 30 rotates. The length of the second threshing part 322 in the counter-rotational direction is longer than the thickness of the plate material forming the first threshing part 321 and the second threshing part 322, and longer than the diameter of the cob of corn to be threshed. Also, the gap (S2) between the second threshing part 322 and the receiving net 50 is set to be approximately equal to or slightly narrower than the diameter of the cob of corn. Therefore, when the corn is moved in a state sandwiched between the second threshing part 322 and the receiving net 50, the corn can be reliably pressed against the receiving net 50, thereby removing the grains from the cobs that are left uncut. You will be able to thresh. In this way, even with crops such as corn, which have hard, thick cobs, less waste can be achieved.

<第二実施形態>
上述した実施形態では、トウモロコシが第二脱穀部322と受網50とに挟まれながら搬送されるが、生育のバラツキによって標準より小さいトウモロコシであると、トウモロコシが第二脱穀部322と受網50とに弱く挟まれた状態で搬送されてしまう。それ故、標準のトウモロコシに比べて扱ぎ残しが多いまま排出され得る。そこで、標準より小さいトウモロコシであっても、できる限り扱ぎ残しを少なくして脱穀できるようにすることが望まれる。以下、それを実現するための第二実施形態の扱ぎ部材32A~32Hについて、図3、図4を参照しながら図8(a)乃至図9(d)を用いて説明する。
<Second embodiment>
In the above-described embodiment, the corn is conveyed while being sandwiched between the second threshing section 322 and the receiving net 50. It is transported in a state where it is weakly sandwiched between Therefore, it can be discharged with more leftovers than standard corn. Therefore, it is desirable to be able to thresh even smaller than standard corn with as little unhandled material as possible. The handling members 32A to 32H of the second embodiment for realizing this will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 and FIGS. 8(a) to 9(d).

図8(a)及び図8(b)に示す扱ぎ部材32Aの場合、第二脱穀部322は、反回転方向に沿って直線的に延びる天面327と、受網50との間隔(S2、図4参照)を狭めるように天面327よりも受網側に突出して形成され、トウモロコシを受網50に押し付ける突出部としての丸棒部材330を有する。扱ぎ部材32Aは、上述した第一実施形態の扱ぎ部材32に1本の丸棒部材330を第二脱穀部322の上面に溶接によって一体に形成したものである。丸棒部材330は、第二脱穀部322において扱胴30の回転方向(矢印X方向)の略中央に、扱胴30の回転方向に交差する方向に延設されている。第二脱穀部322の上面に丸棒部材330を溶接することで、丸棒部材330の直径分だけ(例えば、1~3mm)、丸棒部材330を溶接していない上述した扱ぎ部材32の場合に比べて、第二脱穀部322との隙間(S2、図4参照)を狭くし得る。 In the case of the threshing member 32A shown in FIGS. 8(a) and 8(b), the second threshing part 322 has a space (S2 , FIG. 4) is formed to protrude from the top surface 327 toward the receiving net side, and has a round bar member 330 as a projecting portion for pressing the corn against the receiving net 50 . The threshing member 32A is obtained by integrally forming one round bar member 330 on the upper surface of the second threshing part 322 by welding to the threshing member 32 of the first embodiment described above. The round bar member 330 extends in a direction intersecting the rotation direction of the threshing cylinder 30 at substantially the center of the second threshing section 322 in the rotation direction (arrow X direction) of the threshing cylinder 30 . By welding the round bar member 330 to the upper surface of the second threshing part 322, the diameter of the round bar member 330 (for example, 1 to 3 mm), which is not welded with the round bar member 330. The gap (S2, see FIG. 4) with the second threshing section 322 can be narrowed compared to the case.

この扱ぎ部材32Aでは、側壁部323、324に形成された切欠き部325が側面から見て、少なくとも一部が重なり合わないように形成されている。それ故、扱ぎ部材32Aは、隣り合うラセン羽根90の間に、扱胴30の回転軸線に対して所定の角度となるように取り付けられる。これにより、丸棒部材330も扱胴30の回転軸線に対して所定の角度となる。なお、図8(e)に示す扱ぎ部材32Cのように、丸棒部材330は複数が平行に溶接されていてもよい。 In this handling member 32A, notch portions 325 formed in the side wall portions 323 and 324 are formed so that at least portions thereof do not overlap when viewed from the side. Therefore, the wiping member 32A is mounted between adjacent spiral blades 90 at a predetermined angle with respect to the axis of rotation of the wiping cylinder 30. As shown in FIG. As a result, the round bar member 330 also forms a predetermined angle with respect to the rotation axis of the handling cylinder 30 . In addition, as for the round bar member 330, multiple may be welded in parallel like 32 C of handling members shown in FIG.8(e).

図8(c)及び図8(d)に示すように、扱ぎ部材32Bは、上記した扱ぎ部材32Aと同様に、1本の丸棒部材330を第二脱穀部322の上面に溶接によって一体に形成したものであるが、丸棒部材330が上面から見て第二脱穀部322において斜めに延設されている点が異なる。この扱ぎ部材32Bでも、側壁部323、324に形成された切欠き部325が側面から見て、少なくとも一部が重なり合わないように形成されているので、ラセン羽根90の間に、扱胴30の回転軸線に対して所定の角度となるように取り付けられる。その場合に、丸棒部材330は扱胴30の回転軸線に対して平行となるように、第二脱穀部322において斜めに形成されている。 As shown in FIGS. 8(c) and 8(d), the threshing member 32B is formed by welding a single round bar member 330 to the upper surface of the second threshing part 322 in the same manner as the threshing member 32A described above. It is integrally formed, but differs in that the round bar member 330 extends obliquely in the second threshing section 322 when viewed from above. In this handling member 32B as well, the cutouts 325 formed in the side walls 323 and 324 are formed so that at least a portion thereof does not overlap when viewed from the side, so that the handling cylinder 32B is positioned between the spiral blades 90. It is mounted at a predetermined angle with respect to the axis of rotation of 30 . In that case, the round bar member 330 is obliquely formed in the second threshing section 322 so as to be parallel to the rotation axis of the threshing cylinder 30 .

なお、図8(e)に示す扱ぎ部材32Cのように、上記した丸棒部材330は、複数(ここでは3本)が第二脱穀部322の上面に溶接によって一体に形成されてもよい。また、図8(f)に示す扱ぎ部材32Dのように、複数(ここでは3本)の丸棒部材330が第二脱穀部322において扱胴30の回転方向に延設されていてもよい。 In addition, like the handling member 32C shown in FIG. 8(e), a plurality (three in this case) of the above-described round bar members 330 may be integrally formed on the upper surface of the second threshing part 322 by welding. . Moreover, like a threshing member 32D shown in FIG. 8(f), a plurality of (here, three) round bar members 330 may extend in the rotation direction of the threshing cylinder 30 in the second threshing section 322. .

上記した扱ぎ部材32A~32Dでは、第二脱穀部322において丸棒部材330により受網50との隙間(S2、図4参照)が狭くなることで、例えば生育にバラツキがあって標準より小さいトウモロコシであっても、丸棒部材330により受網50に押し付けられて強く挟まれた状態で搬送される。これにより、標準より小さいトウモロコシであっても扱ぎ残しを少なくして脱穀することができる。また、こうした扱ぎ部材32Aは、図7(b)に示した扱ぎ部材32に丸棒部材330を溶接するだけで、トウモロコシの種類に応じた最適な隙間(S2)を形成可能な交換部品としての扱ぎ部材を形成できるので好ましい。 In the above-described threshing members 32A to 32D, the gap (S2, see FIG. 4) with the receiving net 50 is narrowed by the round bar member 330 in the second threshing section 322. Even corn is conveyed while being pressed against the receiving net 50 by the round bar member 330 and tightly sandwiched. This allows even smaller than standard corn to be threshed with less leftovers. Moreover, such a handling member 32A is a replacement part capable of forming an optimum gap (S2) according to the type of corn by simply welding a round bar member 330 to the handling member 32 shown in FIG. 7(b). It is preferable because it is possible to form a treating member as

ところで、第二脱穀部322において受網50との隙間(S2、図4参照)を狭くするには、上述したように第二脱穀部322に丸棒部材330を溶接することに限られない。受網50との間隔(S2、図4参照)を狭め、トウモロコシを受網50に押し付けるように案内することができるならば、上記した丸棒部材330を用いなくてもよい。そうした場合の実施形態を、図9(a)乃至図9(d)に示す。 By the way, in order to narrow the gap (S2, see FIG. 4) with the receiving net 50 in the second threshing part 322, welding the round bar member 330 to the second threshing part 322 is not limited as described above. If the distance (S2, see FIG. 4) from the receiving net 50 can be narrowed and the corn can be guided to be pressed against the receiving net 50, the above-described round bar member 330 may not be used. An embodiment for such a case is shown in FIGS. 9(a) to 9(d).

図9(a)に示す扱ぎ部材32Eは、第二脱穀部322が扱胴30の回転方向(矢印X方向)において略中央で上流側や下流側よりも受網50側に突出するように(つまりは受網50との隙間が狭くなるように)、曲線形状に形成されたものである。 The threshing member 32E shown in FIG. 9(a) is arranged such that the second threshing part 322 protrudes toward the receiving net 50 from the upstream side or the downstream side at substantially the center in the rotation direction (arrow X direction) of the threshing drum 30. It is formed in a curved shape (that is, so that the gap with the receiving net 50 is narrowed).

図9(b)に示す扱ぎ部材32Fは、扱胴30の回転方向(矢印X方向)において第二脱穀部322の下流側が天面327よりも受網50側に突出するように、突出部としての突状部材360を設けたものである。 The threshing member 32F shown in FIG. 9(b) is a protruding part so that the downstream side of the second threshing part 322 protrudes from the top surface 327 toward the receiving net 50 in the rotation direction (arrow X direction) of the threshing drum 30. A projecting member 360 is provided as a function.

図9(c)に示す扱ぎ部材32Gは、扱胴30の回転方向(矢印X方向)において第二脱穀部322の上流側が天面327よりも受網50側に突出するように、突出部としての突状部材370を設けたものである。この場合は、例えば1つの板状部材において第二脱穀部322の上流側を天面327よりも受網50側に突出するように折り曲げればよく、突状部材370を溶接等しなくて済むので、他に比べると形成が容易である。 The threshing member 32G shown in FIG. 9(c) is a protruding part so that the upstream side of the second threshing part 322 protrudes from the top surface 327 toward the receiving net 50 in the rotation direction (arrow X direction) of the threshing drum 30. A projecting member 370 is provided as a function. In this case, for example, in one plate member, the upstream side of the second threshing part 322 may be bent so as to protrude from the top surface 327 to the receiving net 50 side, and the projecting member 370 does not need to be welded. Therefore, it is easier to form than others.

図9(d)に示す扱ぎ部材32Hは、扱胴30の回転方向(矢印X方向)において第二脱穀部322の略中央に、突出部として断面が三角形状の突状部材380を設けたものである。なお、この場合、例えば1つの板状部材において第二脱穀部322の中央を天面327よりも受網50側に突出するように折り曲げて形成するようにしてもよい。 The threshing member 32H shown in FIG. 9(d) has a protruding member 380 having a triangular cross section as a protruding portion substantially in the center of the second threshing section 322 in the rotation direction (arrow X direction) of the threshing drum 30. It is. In this case, for example, the center of the second threshing part 322 may be bent so as to protrude from the top surface 327 toward the receiving net 50 in one plate member.

以上のようにして、第二脱穀部322において受網50との隙間を狭くすることで、標準より小さいトウモロコシであっても扱ぎ残しを少なくして脱穀することができる。 As described above, by narrowing the gap between the second threshing section 322 and the receiving net 50, even corn smaller than the standard size can be threshed with less unhandled corn.
