2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a sheave case, in order to obtain a high strength, most parts such as a sheave case main body, a Glenpan, a chaff sheave, and a straw rack provided in the sheave case main body are made of sheet metal.

[0003]

However, according to the above prior art, although high strength can be obtained,
Since most parts are made of sheet metal, there is a problem that the weight becomes heavy.In addition, it is necessary to attach parts such as Glen Pan to the sheave case body by welding, bolt connection, etc., and to perform rust prevention painting. Therefore, the inconvenience that the production is troublesome and the inconvenience that the production cost increases are caused.

[0004] The object of the present invention is to obtain high strength,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a sheave case structure of a threshing apparatus capable of reducing weight, facilitating production, and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0005]

A front coarse sorting body, a rear coarse sorting body provided behind the front rough sorting body, and a hollow frame-shaped sheave surrounding both the coarse sorting bodies and integrally formed with the fine sorting bodies. A sheave case was constructed by connecting the three resin molded products to the case body.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, the sheave case is made of a sheet metal material because the front roughly sorted body, the rear roughly sorted body, and the sheave case body constituting the sheave case are resin molded products. Compared with the case, the sheave case can be reduced in weight and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
In addition, since it is not necessary to apply rust-preventive coating to these resin molded articles as in the case of sheet metal material, labor for rust-preventive coating can be omitted and coating cost can be reduced. In addition, of the parts for rough sorting arranged in a state of being connected to the upper side of the sheave case body in the front-rear direction (transfer direction of the processed material), the parts arranged in the first half of the sheave case body (generally, Is a front rough sorter that is a resin molded product integrally formed with two Glen pans arranged before and after the opening-adjustable chaff sheave, and each component (generally, arranged in the rear half of the sheave case body) Is a rear roughly sorted body that is a resin molded product in which a fixed type chaff sheave and straw rack are integrally formed, and a carefully sorted body (generally, a grain pan for fine sorting, The sheave case can be configured by coupling with a sheave case main body, which is a resin molded product integrally formed with the sheave case arranged in a state of being connected to the main body. And the components for selective alternative in comparison with the case of constituting the sieve casing by assembling in welding or bolted, so the sieve casing can be easily manufactured. In addition, the front roughly sorted body, the rear roughly sorted body, and the sheave case main body can be reinforced by integrally forming each part belonging thereto, and the front roughly sorted body, the rear roughly sorted body, And, when connecting the sheave case main body, since the sheave case main body surrounds the front coarsely sorted body and the rear coarsely sorted body arranged in front and rear,
The sheave case can be reinforced as a whole.

Become. In other words, when the front roughly sorted body and the rear roughly sorted body are connected to the sheave case body surrounding them, in a state where the front part of the front roughly sorted body and the rear part of the rear roughly sorted body are not polymerized. Is because only the sheave case main body has the stress applied to the front and rear middle part of the sheave case, which is the connection point between the front coarsely sorted body and the rear coarsely sorted body, so that the reinforcing structure that can withstand the stress ( Increase in thickness or formation of reinforcing ribs) on the sheave case body, which results in an increase in the size or complexity of the sheave case body.
In addition, inconveniences such as an increase in manufacturing cost occur. However, according to the invention described in claim 2, a high strength capable of withstanding stress applied to front and rear intermediate portions of the sheave case without applying a reinforcing structure to the sheave case body is provided. As a result, those disadvantages can be avoided.

Accordingly, it is possible to provide a sheave case structure of a threshing apparatus capable of obtaining higher strength while avoiding inconveniences such as an increase in the size or complexity of the sheave case body and an increase in manufacturing cost. .

[0011] In the invention according to claim 3 of the present invention,
In the invention according to claim 1 or 2, a straw rack acting on a processed material from a dust outlet is integrally formed at a rear end portion of the front roughly sorted body.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, since the straw rack acting on the processed material from the dust outlet is formed integrally with the rear end of the front rough sorting body, the straw rack is front roughly sorted. It is easier to manufacture as compared with a structure that is formed separately from the body and connected to the rear end of the front coarsely sorted body with bolts or the like. It is also conceivable that the straw rack is formed integrally with the rear coarsely sorted body, but since the straw rack acts on the processed material from the dust outlet, the straw rack is formed on the front side of the rear coarsely sorted body. Since they are arranged in parallel above the integrally formed rough sorting parts (generally, fixed chaff sheaves), there is a disadvantage that the molds for integrally forming are complicated and the manufacturing cost is increased. Become like In other words, by integrally forming the straw rack acting on the processed material from the dust outlet at the rear end of the front rough sorting body, it is possible to avoid the disadvantage of increasing the manufacturing cost,
The production can be further facilitated.

Accordingly, it has been possible to provide a sheave case structure of a threshing apparatus which can further facilitate the production while avoiding the disadvantage of increasing the production cost.
