Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
この発明は、フロントモ−アの油圧装置に関し、操向旋回時のスリップを防止するために、この操向旋回時に前車輪に荷重をかけようとするものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術、および発明が解決しようとする課題】
フロントモ−アにおいて、地面の凹凸に追随して上下する場合に、地面との接触摩擦を軽減するために、リフトシリンダの油圧回路内に、副リリ−フ弁を設けて、切替弁がフロ−ト位置に切替えられたときには、モ−アのリフトシリンダに低圧の油圧を常時付勢し、モ−アを浮揚させる構成とした技術(特開平4−316408号公報)がある。
【0003】
フロントモ−アでは、刈取を行いながら急に操向旋回すると駆動する前車輪がスリップして芝生を傷め易い。この発明は、この刈取旋回時にモ−アを僅かに浮上させて、前車輪に荷重をかけてスリップを防止させるものである。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
この発明は、前車輪7と後車輪10を備え、ステアリングハンドル5を回動すると操舵用のオービットロール6が切り替えられてステアリングシリンダ24が伸縮し、これに応じて後車輪10の操舵がなされるように構成したフロントモーアにおいて、車体1の前部には草刈用のモーア 2 を連結し、このモーア2をコントロールバルブ26の切替えによりリフトシリンダ3を伸縮作動させて昇降させるようになし、モーア2のハウジングを構成するモーアデッキ11の前側にはモーア2の前部を支えるゲージホイル15を設け、このゲージホイル15は上端が進行方向後方で下端が進行方向前方となるように傾斜する調節杆35回りに回動可能なキャスタアーム36の下端に軸37にて回転自在に軸支し、更に前記コントロールバルブ26とリフトシリンダ3との間には、コントロールバルブ26側とリフトシリンダ3側とを連通させたり遮断させたりする切替弁28を設け、前記ステアリングハンドル5を回動させてステアリングシリンダ24が作動するとその作動油の圧力によって前記切替弁28が遮断された状態になり、同時に前記キャスタアーム36が調節杆35回りに回動されて前車輪7の荷重を増すように構成したことを特徴とするフロントモーアの構成とする。
【0005】
【作用】
フロントモ−アによる芝刈作業は、ステアリングハンドル5の操向を行いながら、リフトシリンダ3によりモ−ア2を下降させ刈取地面に接近させた状態で行う。ステアリングハンドル5の操向角を一定以上に大きくして旋回走行に入ると、後車輪10の操舵用油圧シリンダ24によって車輪の旋回操向が行われるが、このシリンダ24へ送られる作動油の作動圧によって切替弁28が切替えられ、コントロールバルブ26とリフトシリンダ3とをつなぐ油路が遮断される。
このとき、同時にモーアデッキ11の前部に設けたゲージホイル15が調節杆35の回りに回動される。この調節杆35は上端が進行方向後方で下端が進行方向前方となるように傾斜しているために、ゲージホイル15を支えるキャスタアーム36が回動するとゲージホイル15はあたかも地面から浮上したかのようになり、モーア2の接地支持力を失う。
【0006】
【発明の効果】
このため、前車輪7に今まで以上のウエイトが掛かることになって前車輪7の接地圧が上り、駆動される前車輪7のスリップが少くなり、刈取跡の芝生を損傷することが少い。又、切替弁28の開閉を、ステアリングハンドル5の回動操作によって行わせるものであるから、操向旋回とのタイミングがとり易く、特別の操作を要しないで、構成も簡単化できる。
【0007】
【実施例】
トラクタ車体1は、ステアリングハンドル5を操縦席8の前方に、又、エンジンE及びコレクタ−9を後方に配置し、前車輪7と後車輪10とを駆動して走行しうる四輪駆動走行形態としている。ステアリングハンドル5によってオ−ビットロ−ル6を介して後車輪10を操向しうる。
【0008】
モ−ア2は、モ−アデッキ11の下面に複数のカッタブレ−ドを上下方向の刈刃軸の回りに連動回転して、地面上の芝生を刈取るもので、このモ−アデッキ11上部を吊下げるリフトア−ム12を車体1前端部に上下回動自在に枢支13し、このリフトア−ム12にモ−アデッキ2上のデッキフレ−ム14を連結し、リフトア−ム12を車体1との間のリフトシリンダ3の油圧伸縮によって昇降することができる。該デッキフレ−ム14の前端にゲ−ジホイル15が設けられ、車体1側の動力取出軸16と連動する入力軸17によって各カッタブレ−ドを回転駆動する構成としている。
【0009】
モ−アデッキ11の排出口部18には排出筒19を連接し、この排出筒19の後端部をスロワ−20に連通し、コレクタ−9に刈取った芝を搬入しうる構成としている。21はコレクタ−9を平行リンク22支持で昇降する昇降シリンダ、23はコレクタ−9をダンプさせる油圧のダンプシリンダである。オ−ビットロ−ル6は、ステアリングハンドル5の操向角に応じて油圧力でステアリングシリンダ24を伸縮させて、後車輪10を操向する。油圧ポンプPの駆動によってタンクポ−トTのオイルを、オ−ビットロ−ル6を経てステアリングシリンダ24へ送る他に、オイルフィルタ−25を経て油圧段変速装置HSTへ分流すると共に、分流弁38を経てコントロ−ルバルブ26からリフトシリンダ3やオイルク−ラ27等へ分流する構成としている。
【0010】
このような油圧回路のうち、コントロ−ルバルブ26からリフトシリンダ3へ至る間の油圧回路4に切替弁28を設け、この切替弁28をステアリングシリンダ24の左右いずれか一方向の旋回のための油圧回路29の油圧力で切替作動するように設ける。この切替弁28は、コントロ−ルバルブ26に連通するAポ−トと、リフトシリンダ3に連通するBポ−トと、オ−ビットロ−ル6の油圧回路29に連通のCポ−トとを有し、スプ−ル30左右端面にCポ−トの油圧を与えるエリア31とハンドル32で圧力調整可能なばね33を有するエリア34とを形成し、Cポ−トの油圧力でばね33の張圧力に抗してスプ−ル30を移動させて油圧回路4のAポ−トとBポ−トとの間を連通したり遮断する。オ−ビットロ−ルが操向旋回の作動に入ると、油圧回路29には変圧が働くため、Cポ−トからエリア31に働く油圧力でスプ−ル30をばね33に抗して移動させて、Aポ−トとBポ−トとの間を遮断し、コントロ−ルバルブ26側からリフトシリンダ3へのオイルの給排を停止する。このため、リフトシリンダ3の伸縮は行われない。
【0011】
このように操向旋回行程に入って車体1の向きと共に前部のモ−ア2が左側、又は右側へ移動されるとき、このモ−アデッキ11の前側のゲ−ジホイル15が、上下調節杆35の前後方向傾斜Dで、かつこの調節杆35の下端部に対してキャスタア−ム36で偏位Fさせて軸支37し、旋回自在に設けられるために、このゲ−ジホイル15が調節杆35回りに接地抵抗の関係で旋回されると、ゲ−ジホイル15は地面から浮上Hしうる状態となり、モ−ア2の接地支持力が殆んど失われて、モ−ア2の重量が車体1の前車輪7部に働くこととなる。

[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a hydraulic system for a front mower, and is intended to apply a load to a front wheel during steering turning in order to prevent slipping during steering turning.
[0002]
[Background Art and Problems to be Solved by the Invention]
In order to reduce contact friction with the ground when the front motor moves up and down following the unevenness of the ground, a sub-relief valve is provided in the hydraulic circuit of the lift cylinder so that the switching valve There is a technique (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 4-316408) in which a low pressure hydraulic pressure is constantly urged to a lift cylinder of a mower and the mower floats when switched to a moat position.
[0003]
In the front mower, if the steering turns suddenly while cutting, the front wheel to be driven slips and the lawn is easily damaged. According to the present invention, the mower is slightly lifted during the cutting and turning, and a load is applied to the front wheels to prevent slipping.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention includes a front wheel 7 and a rear wheel 10. When the steering handle 5 is rotated, the steering orbit roll 6 is switched and the steering cylinder 24 expands and contracts, and the rear wheel 10 is steered accordingly. In the front mower configured as described above, a mower 2 for mowing is connected to the front portion of the vehicle body 1, and the mower 2 is moved up and down by expanding and contracting the lift cylinder 3 by switching the control valve 26. A gauge wheel 15 that supports the front part of the mower 2 is provided on the front side of the mower deck 11 that constitutes the housing, and the gauge wheel 15 has an adjustment rod 35 that is inclined so that the upper end is rearward in the traveling direction and the lower end is forward in the traveling direction Is pivotally supported by a shaft 37 at the lower end of a caster arm 36 that is pivotable to the control valve 26, and is connected to the control valve 26 and a rear shaft. A switching valve 28 for connecting or shutting off the control valve 26 side and the lift cylinder 3 side is provided between the left and right cylinders 3, and when the steering cylinder 24 is operated by rotating the steering handle 5, the operating oil is provided. The structure of the front mower is configured such that the switching valve 28 is shut off by the pressure of the pressure and at the same time the caster arm 36 is rotated around the adjusting rod 35 to increase the load of the front wheel 7. And
[0005]
[Action]
The lawn mowing work by the front mower is performed in a state where the mower 2 is lowered by the lift cylinder 3 and approached to the mowing ground while the steering handle 5 is steered. When the steering angle of the steering wheel 5 is increased beyond a certain level and the vehicle starts turning, the turning of the wheel is performed by the steering hydraulic cylinder 24 of the rear wheel 10, and the hydraulic oil sent to the cylinder 24 is activated. The switching valve 28 is switched by the pressure, and the oil passage connecting the control valve 26 and the lift cylinder 3 is blocked.
At this time, the gauge wheel 15 provided at the front of the mower deck 11 is simultaneously rotated around the adjustment rod 35. Since the adjustment rod 35 is inclined so that the upper end is rearward in the traveling direction and the lower end is forward in the traveling direction, when the caster arm 36 supporting the gauge wheel 15 is rotated, the gauge wheel 15 is as if lifted from the ground. As a result, the ground support force of the mower 2 is lost.
[0006]
【The invention's effect】
For this reason, the front wheel 7 is more weighted than before, the ground pressure of the front wheel 7 is increased, the slip of the driven front wheel 7 is reduced, and the lawn of the cutting trace is less damaged. . Further, since the switching valve 28 is opened and closed by the turning operation of the steering handle 5, it is easy to take the timing of the steering turning, and the configuration can be simplified without requiring any special operation.
[0007]
【Example】
The tractor vehicle body 1 has a four-wheel drive traveling mode in which the steering handle 5 is disposed in front of the cockpit 8 and the engine E and the collector 9 are disposed in the rear to drive the front wheel 7 and the rear wheel 10. It is said. The rear wheel 10 can be steered by the steering handle 5 via the orbit roll 6.
[0008]
The mower 2 rotates a plurality of cut blades on the lower surface of the mower deck 11 around the cutting blade shaft in the vertical direction to mow the lawn on the ground. A suspended lift arm 12 is pivotally supported at the front end of the vehicle body 1 so as to be pivotable up and down. The lift cylinder 3 can be lifted and lowered by hydraulic expansion and contraction. A gage wheel 15 is provided at the front end of the deck frame 14, and each cuttable blade is rotationally driven by an input shaft 17 interlocked with a power take-off shaft 16 on the vehicle body 1 side.
[0009]
A discharge tube 19 is connected to the discharge port portion 18 of the mower deck 11, the rear end portion of the discharge tube 19 is connected to the slot 20, and the cut grass can be carried into the collector 9. Reference numeral 21 denotes a lifting cylinder that lifts and lowers the collector 9 with the support of the parallel link 22, and 23 denotes a hydraulic dump cylinder that dumps the collector 9. The orbit roll 6 steers the rear wheel 10 by expanding and contracting the steering cylinder 24 with hydraulic pressure according to the steering angle of the steering handle 5. In addition to sending the oil in the tank port T to the steering cylinder 24 via the orbit roll 6 by driving the hydraulic pump P, the oil is diverted to the hydraulic stage transmission HST via the oil filter 25 and the diversion valve 38 is Then, the flow is divided from the control valve 26 to the lift cylinder 3, the oil cooler 27, and the like.
[0010]
Among such hydraulic circuits, a switching valve 28 is provided in the hydraulic circuit 4 from the control valve 26 to the lift cylinder 3, and the switching valve 28 is used to turn the steering cylinder 24 in one of the left and right directions. A switching operation is provided by the hydraulic pressure of the circuit 29. This switching valve 28 includes an A port communicating with the control valve 26, a B port communicating with the lift cylinder 3, and a C port communicating with the hydraulic circuit 29 of the orbit roll 6. An area 31 for applying a C port oil pressure to the left and right end surfaces of the spool 30 and an area 34 having a spring 33 whose pressure can be adjusted by the handle 32. The spool 30 is moved against the tension pressure to communicate or block between the A port and the B port of the hydraulic circuit 4. When the orbit roll 6 enters the steering operation, the hydraulic circuit 29 is transformed, so that the spool 30 moves against the spring 33 by the hydraulic pressure acting on the area 31 from the C port. Thus, the A port and the B port are shut off, and the supply and discharge of oil from the control valve 26 side to the lift cylinder 3 is stopped. For this reason, the lift cylinder 3 is not expanded or contracted.
[0011]
Thus, when entering the steering and turning stroke and the front mower 2 is moved to the left or right side along with the direction of the vehicle body 1, the gage wheel 15 on the front side of the mower deck 11 is adjusted up and down. The gage wheel 15 is provided with a pivot 37 that is pivoted by a caster arm 36 and is pivoted by a caster arm 36 with a forward / backward inclination D of 35 and a lower end of the adjustment rod 35. When it is turned around 35 due to the grounding resistance, the gage wheel 15 can float from the ground and the grounding support force of the mower 2 is almost lost, and the weight of the mower 2 is reduced. It will work on the front wheel 7 part of the vehicle body 1.
