Description

  The present invention relates to a combine in which a cutting part for continuously cutting grain cereals in a field is attached to the front part of a traveling machine body.

  Conventionally, in this type of combiner, for the convenience of maintenance of a cutting part and an engine arranged at the front part of the traveling machine body, the cutting part can be horizontally rotated toward the outside of the traveling machine body (that is, There are some which can be opened and closed.

An example of a combine having such a configuration is disclosed in Patent Document 1. In the combine described in Patent Document 1, an upright vertical support shaft is erected on a front corner portion on one side of the left and right sides of the body frame constituting the traveling body. The cutting unit is configured to be capable of opening and closing in the horizontal direction with the vertical support shaft as the center of rotation.
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-42

  By the way, the harvested part that is opened and rotated is in a cantilevered state, but the harvested part has a considerable weight, so the vertical support shaft that supports the harvested part in a horizontally rotatable manner is caused by the weight of the harvested part. A large forward tilting moment acts. And the load (load) based on the forward tilting moment is bent in the direction in which the frame of the front corner part is bent downward so that the vertical spindle is submerged in the front corner part of the body frame where the vertical spindle is erected. It will work intensively. For this reason, the vertical support shaft and the front corner of the airframe must be made as sturdy as possible.

  However, increasing the thickness of the frame, etc., and adding many reinforcing members will increase the rigidity of the vertical support shaft and the front corner of the fuselage frame, but at the same time increase the cost. There was a problem that it did not meet the demand for cost reduction that has been increasing in recent years.

  Therefore, the present invention has as a technical problem to provide a combine that improves the support strength of the vertical support shaft and the cutting part of the body frame while suppressing an increase in the number of parts.

  In order to solve this technical problem, the invention according to claim 1 is a traveling machine body having a machine body frame formed by connecting a plurality of beam members extending in the front-rear direction and a plurality of beam members extending in the left-right direction in a lattice shape. And a cutting part disposed at the front part of the traveling machine body, the first beam member located at the left and right side ends of the machine body frame intersects with the first beam member located at the front end. An upright vertical support shaft is erected at the location, and the cutting unit is provided with a horizontal support shaft projecting sideways from the vertical support shaft with the vertical support shaft as a rotation center. A combine configured to be horizontally rotatable toward the outside, wherein the second beam member located on the left and right inner sides of the first beam member intersects with the first beam member at the cutting portion. Is in the closed position located in front of the vehicle, A support member for supporting the front end of the horizontal support shaft from below is erected, and as the vertical support shaft and the support member are separated from the vertical support shaft in the fuselage frame, It is connected with the 1st reinforcement frame inclined so that height may become high.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the combine according to the first aspect, the third girder member and the strut member, which are located on the opposite side of the first girder member with the second girder member interposed therebetween, are separated from the strut member. It is connected with the 2nd reinforcement frame inclined so that height may become low as it leaves | separates.

  As described above, when the reaping portion opens and rotates around the vertical support shaft to be in a cantilever state, a forward tilting moment due to the weight of the reaping portion acts on the vertical support shaft. Due to this forward tilting moment, a load (downward load) in the direction of sinking the vertical support shaft acts on the vertical support shaft in the body frame.

  In this regard, according to the configuration of claim 1, a strut member is provided at a location where the second beam member located on the left and right inside of the first girder member of the airframe frame and the first beam member of the airframe frame intersect. Standing up, and connecting the vertical support shaft standing portion and the column member in the fuselage frame with a first reinforcing frame inclined so that the height increases as the distance from the vertical support shaft increases. Therefore, the first reinforcing frame functions as a strength member for complementing the rigidity of the standing part, and a part of the downward load applied to the standing part is dispersed in the first reinforcing frame. That is, the first reinforcing frame can support (receive) a part of the downward load applied to the standing portion.

  For this reason, even if the rigidity of the machine body frame itself is not increased by increasing the thickness or the like, it is possible to improve the support strength against the downward load applied to the standing position by adding only one reinforcing frame, As a result, there is an effect that it is possible to improve the support stability with respect to the cutting portion that is opened and rotated.

  On the other hand, when the vertical support shaft standing position in the machine frame and the support member are connected by the first reinforcing frame, the support member is opened when the cutting part is opened and rotated around the vertical support shaft. Since there is the first reinforcing frame, a tensile force that pulls in the direction of falling toward the first girder member acts.

  On the other hand, when configured as in claim 2, the third girder member and the column member, which are located on the opposite side of the first girder member with the second girder member interposed therebetween, are moved away from the column member. Since the second reinforcing frame is connected so as to be lowered in height, the support member can be supported against the tensile force due to the presence of the second reinforcing frame.

  For this reason, there is an effect that it is possible to further promote the effect of improving the support strength against the load (downward load) applied to the upright portion of the vertical support shaft in the body member frame and thus in the machine body frame.

Action and Effect In the above configuration, when the cutting part 3 opens and rotates around the vertical support shaft 21 to be in a cantilever state, the vertical support shaft 21 has a forward tilting moment due to the weight of the cutting part. Works. Due to this forward tilting moment, a load (downward load) in the direction in which the vertical support shaft 21 is sunk acts on the standing position of the vertical support shaft 21 (the position of the cutting stand 73) in the body frame 20.

  In this regard, in the embodiment, the standing position of the vertical support shaft 21 (the position of the cutting stand 73) and the support member 26 in the body frame 20 are inclined obliquely upward in a front view from the cutting support 73 to the support member 26. Since the first reinforcing frame 74 is connected, the first reinforcing frame 74 functions as a strength member for supplementing the rigidity of the standing position of the vertical support shaft 21 in the body frame 20, and A part of the downward load applied to the first reinforcing frame 74 is dispersed. That is, the first reinforcing frame 74 can support (receive) a part of the downward load applied to the standing portion.

  For this reason, even if the rigidity of the machine body frame 20 and the mowing frame 73 itself is not increased by increasing the thickness, etc., the supporting strength against the downward load applied to the standing position can be increased by adding only one reinforcing frame 74. As a result, it is possible to improve the support stability with respect to the harvested part that has been opened and rotated.

  On the other hand, when the standing portion of the vertical support shaft 21 in the body frame 20 and the support member 26 are connected by the first reinforcing frame 74, when the cutting unit 3 is opened and rotated around the vertical support shaft 21, the support member 26. Since there is the first reinforcing frame 74, a pulling force that pulls in the direction of falling toward the cutting stand 73 acts.

  On the other hand, in the embodiment, the third girder member 71c and the column member 26 positioned on the opposite side of the first girder member 71a with the second girder member 71b interposed therebetween are directed from the column member 26 to the third girder member 71c. Since the second reinforcing frame 75 is inclined obliquely downward when viewed from the front, the support member 26 can be supported against the tensile force due to the presence of the second reinforcing frame 75.

  For this reason, it is possible to further promote the effect of improving the support strength against the load (downward load) applied to the support member 26 and, in turn, the vertical support shaft 21 in the machine frame 20.
