DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a traveling device for a mobile agricultural machine such as a combine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Transmission cables
It is known that the left and right traveling devices transmitted through the steering clutch provided in the gear are configured to reversely transmit the steering device on the steering side by a spin gear or a spin clutch provided in the transmission device. I have. In this type of conventional device, a spin gear is meshed with a wheel gear of a wheel shaft which is output in conjunction with a traveling device which is mounted on a lower end portion of a traveling transmission case, but such a device has a reduction ratio. Since it is large and the rotation torque is large, it is necessary to increase the diameter of the spin clutch and the strength of the traveling transmission case.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has as its object to provide a traveling device which can simplify the structure of a transmission device in a transmission case and can be manufactured at low cost.

[0004]

For this reason, the present invention has taken the following technical measures. That is, a clutch gear 18 driven by receiving the rotational power of the engine is provided on the steering clutch shaft 4, and the steering clutch gear 3 which can be disengaged from the clutch gear 18 is provided on the left and right of the clutch gear 18. And a steering brake mechanism 20 for applying braking to the rotation of the steering clutch gear 3, and further below the transmission of the steering clutch shaft 4, the steering brake mechanism 20 is always engaged with the steering clutch gear 3 while being on the wheel shaft 2. A reduction gear 6 that supports a reduction gear 5 that applies reduced rotation power to the wheel gear 1 is supported by a shaft, and the steering brake mechanism 20 is operated to apply a brake to the rotation of the wheel shaft 2 in the turning direction. In the mobile agricultural machine configured to rotate the machine body, the counter gear 10 that meshes with the reduction gear 5 in the same direction on one side of the clutch gear 18 and the spin clutch 8 on the other side. A spin gear 7 for turning the power on and off, and meshing the spin gear 7 with the reduction gear 5 on the opposite side of the counter gear 10 so that the counter gear 10 and the spin gear 7 can be reversed by a reversing mechanism 21. The feature is the configuration of the traveling transmission device of the moving agricultural machine.

[0005]

When the steering clutch gear 3 is engaged on the steering clutch shaft 4, the wheel gear 1 meshes with the reduction gear 5 via the reduction gear 5 on the reduction shaft 6 and rotates.
And the left and right traveling devices are driven and rotated. During such straight running, the spin clutch 8 is in the disengaged state, so that even if the spin gear 7 is rotated, the counter gear 10 is rotated.
There is no power transmission.

When turning the body, the steering clutch gear 3 in the turning direction is operated to be turned off. Then, the transmission of the reduction gear 5 and the wheel gear 1 to the steering device on the steering side is cut off, and the traveling direction is changed by the transmission of the traveling device by the steering clutch gear 3 on the opposite side. Further, when turning by a spin turn, the turning operation of the spin clutch 8 is performed together with the clutch disengagement of the steering clutch gear 3. At this time, the steering clutch gear 3 on the opposite side to the spin clutch 8 is in a rotational transmission state, and the wheel gear 1 on the same side is transmitted through the reduction gear 5 on this side for forward rotation. A counter gear 10 meshes with the reduction gear 5, and further passes through a reverse rotation mechanism 21, a spin clutch 8, a spin gear 7, and a reduction gear 5 on the steering clutch disengagement side, and rotates the traveling device in reverse through the wheel gear 1 on this side. Then, the turning steering by the spin turn is performed. Such a spin turn is similarly performed in the turning steering on the opposite side.
