It is branched and transmitted to the third path C transmitted to the gear box 39.

  In the first path A transmitted to the mowing hydraulic continuously variable transmission 100, the rotation of the counter shaft 71 is supported by the pulley 71D, the belt 93, and the input shaft 101 of the mowing hydraulic continuously variable transmission 100. Is transmitted to the input shaft 101 through the pulley 102. The rotation of the input shaft 101 is accelerated and decelerated by the gear box 103 and then transmitted to the reaping device 4 via the first output shaft 104 of the gear box 103, and the reaping device 4 and the synchro chain via the second output shaft 105. 13A is transmitted. The rotation of the counter shaft 71 is transmitted to the first tang 53A via the pulley 71E and belt 94 supported on the left side of the pulley 71D, and the pulley 71F and belt 95 supported between the pulley 71D and the pulley 71E. The first transfer helix 53b, the second hot spring 53C, and the second transfer helix 53d are transmitted through the rotary shaft 72.

  The rotation of the rotary shaft 72 is transmitted to the transmission gear box 120, the swing sorting device 52, and the waste cutter 59 via a pulley 72A and a belt 98 supported on the left side of the rotary shaft 72. Further, the rotation transmitted to the input shaft 121 of the transmission gear box 120 is transmitted to the dust exhaust fan 48 through the gears 122 and 123, and is transmitted to the transmission counter shaft 125 through the gears 122, 123 and 124.

  As shown in FIG. 11, a clutch shifter 126 having engagement teeth formed on both right and left sides that slide in the axial direction of the transmission countershaft 125 is attached to the middle portion of the transmission countershaft 125.

  In a restricted state where the supply of hand-held cereals to the feed chain 12B is restricted, the clutch shifter 126 slides in the axial direction of the transmission countershaft 125 according to the measured value of the traveling speed sensor 66S. That is, when the traveling speed of the traveling device 3 is high, the clutch shifter 126 slides toward the high speed gear 127 and engages with the high speed gear 127 to increase the rotation transmitted to the transmission counter shaft 125. On the other hand, when the traveling speed of the traveling device 3 is low, the clutch shifter 126 slides toward the low speed gear 128 and engages with the low speed gear 128 to decelerate the rotation transmitted to the transmission counter shaft 125.

Regardless of the value, sliding is limited to the high speed gear 127 side, sliding to the low speed gear 128 side and engaging with the low speed gear 128 to reduce the rotation transmitted to the transmission counter shaft 125.

  The rotation increased by the engagement of the clutch shifter 126 and the high speed gear 127 is transmitted to the output shaft 131 via the gear 129, and the rotation reduced by the engagement of the clutch shifter 126 and the low speed gear 128 causes the gear 130 to rotate. Via the output shaft 131. The rotation of the output shaft 131 is transmitted to the drive shaft 68D of the feed chain 12B via the coupling 68C, and is transmitted to the feed chain 12B via the drive sprocket 17A supported on the left end of the drive shaft 68D.

  In the second path B transmitted to the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66, the rotation of the engine 62 is caused by the pulley 70B supported by the crankshaft 70, the belt 96, and the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66. This is input to the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66 through a pulley 66B supported by the input shaft.

  The rotation of the input shaft of the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66 is transmitted to the transmission 65 via the output shaft of the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66 and is accelerated and decelerated by a plurality of gears built in the transmission 65. After that, the vehicle is transmitted to the traveling device 2 via left and right axles 65A that are pivotally supported by the transmission 65 and drive wheels 65B that are fixed to the front end of the axle 65A.

  In the third path C that is transmitted to the discharge spiral 39A of the Glen tank 5, the rotation of the engine 62 is caused by the pulley 70C supported by the crankshaft 70, the belt 97, the gear box 39, and the like below the Glen tank 5. Is transmitted to a discharge spiral 39A provided in

  The mode switch 6B is not limited to a switch that is manually operated by an operator. That is, in order to prevent disturbance of the posture of the cereal that is handed over from the terminal end of the conveying device 34 of the cutting device 4 to the starting end of the feed chain 12B, the terminal end of the conveying device 34 has a hand that swings in the vertical direction. A handling auxiliary plate 42 and a rear auxiliary clamp 43 are provided below the handling handle plate 42. At the time of switching to the handling mode, the handling handle plate 42 is swung upwardly about the axis 44A in order to place the handling grain candy on the rear auxiliary nip 43 and the feed chain 12B.

FIG. 13 illustrates a first driving method of the speed VF of the feed chain 12B. The horizontal axis indicates the traveling speed V of the traveling device 2 detected by the traveling speed sensor 66S, and V1 and V2 are first and second set values of the traveling speed V, respectively. The left vertical axis indicates the speed VF of the feed chain 12B detected by the feed chain speed sensor 10S, VF1 and VF2 are the first and second set values of the speed VF of the feed chain 12B, and the right vertical axis indicates the conveyance speed. The speed VH of the transport device 34 detected by the sensor 34S is shown, VH1 and VH2 are first and second set values of the transport speed VH, and VH1 and 2 are the first and second set values of the travel speed V of the travel device 2. It corresponds to the speed of V1,2.

  First, the control device 85 determines whether or not there is an input from the mode switch 6B. If it is determined that there is no input from the mode switch 6B, the control device 85 determines the speed VH (conveyance speed sensor 34S) of the transport device 34. It is determined whether or not the input value from (1) is lower than the first set value VH1.

  When it is determined that the speed VH of the transport device 34 is lower than the first set value VH1, the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is controlled to the speed calculated by the following equation 1 as shown in the first state. Note that the transport speed VH of the transport device 34 with respect to the travel speed V of the travel device 2 varies depending on the gear position set by the auxiliary transmission lever 15.

Formula 1 VF = K × V
However, K = VH1 / V1
On the other hand, when it is determined that the speed VH of the conveying device 34 is equal to or higher than the first set value VF1, the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is calculated by the following equation 2 as shown in the second state. To control.

Formula 2 VF = VF1 + 1.5 to 2.5 × K × (V−V1)
However, K = (VH2-VH1) / (V2-V1)
Next, the control device 85 determines whether or not the speed VF of the feed chain 12B (input value of the feed chain speed sensor 10S) is lower than the second set value VH2 of the transport device 34.

  When it is determined that the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is lower than the second set value VH2 of the transport device 34, the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is set to the speed calculated by Expression 2 as shown in the second state. Control.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is equal to or higher than the second set value VH2 of the transport device 34, the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is set to the second set value VF2 as shown in the third state. To maintain.

  When the traveling speed V of the traveling device 2 detected by the traveling speed sensor 66S exceeds the maximum speed V2 over a predetermined time, a warning is given to the driver by a monitor or the like disposed in front of the cockpit 6. It is preferable.

(Second feed chain drive method)
FIG. 14 illustrates a second driving method of the speed VF of the feed chain 12B. The solid line indicates the speed VF of the feed chain 12B, the broken line indicates the speed VH of the transport device 34, the same members as those in the first driving method are denoted by the same reference numerals, and duplicate descriptions are omitted.

  First, the control device 85 determines whether or not there is an input from the mode switch 6B. If it is determined that there is no input from the mode switch 6B, the control device 85 maintains the speed VF of the feed chain 12B in the first to third states. To do.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the mode switch 6B has been input, the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is controlled to the speed calculated by the following equation 3. The speed VF of the feed chain 12B can be increased / decreased in a range of 10 to 20% by the speed control dial 6A. It is preferable to operate 6A to increase the speed of the feed chain 12BVF.

Formula 3 VF = 0.25-0.5 * VH1
(First stop method of feed chain)
FIG. 15 shows a first stopping method of the feed chain 12B driven by the first driving method.

  The operation state of the stop switch 6D is shown in the first stage from the upper side of FIG. 15, and the feed stage hydraulic continuously variable transmission 10 that increases and decreases the rotational speed transmitted to the feed chain 12B is shown in the second stage. The position of the trunnion shaft 10F is illustrated, and the speed VF of the feed chain 12B is illustrated in the third stage. Further, the driving state of the engine 62 is illustrated in the fourth stage of FIG. 15, and the speed VH of the transport device 34 provided in the reaping device 3 that is driven in conjunction with the traveling device 2 is illustrated in the lowermost stage. .

  First, the control device 85 determines whether or not there is an input from the stop switch 6D. If it is determined that there is no input from the stop switch 6D, the control device 85 drives the feed chain 12B by the first driving method.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the stop switch 6D has been input, the first transmission motor 10C connected to the trunnion shaft 10F of the feed chain hydraulic continuously variable transmission 10 is driven, and the rotational position of the trunnion shaft 10F is determined. The rotation of the output shaft 10B of the feed chain hydraulic continuously variable transmission 10 is stopped by rotating to a neutral position. As a result, the driving force to the feed chain 12B is interrupted, and the rotation of the feed chain 12B stops.

  When it is determined that the stop switch 6D has been input, the engine 62 is stopped to stop the rotation transmitted to the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66, and the traveling device 2 and the reaping device 4 are provided. The rotation of the transport device 34 is stopped.

  In order to stop the feed chain 12B more quickly, it is preferable to rotate the trunnion shaft 10F slightly beyond the neutral position to a position on the reverse side.

(Second method for stopping the feed chain)
FIG. 16 shows a second stopping method of the feed chain 12B driven by the second driving method. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same member as a 1st stop method, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  First, the control device 85 determines whether or not there is an input from the stop switch 6D. If it is determined that there is no input from the stop switch 6D, the control device 85 drives the feed chain 12B by the second driving method.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the stop switch 6D has been input, the rotation position of the trunnion shaft 10F is driven by the second transmission motor 10E connected to the trunnion shaft 10F of the feed chain hydraulic continuously variable transmission 10. The rotation of the output shaft 10B of the feed chain hydraulic continuously variable transmission 10 is stopped by rotating to a neutral position. As a result, the driving force to the feed chain 12B is interrupted, and the rotation of the feed chain 12B stops.

  When it is determined that the stop switch 6D has been input, the engine 62 is stopped to stop the rotation transmitted to the traveling hydraulic continuously variable transmission 66, and the traveling device 2 and the reaping device 4 are provided. The rotation of the transport device 34 is stopped.

  In order to stop the feed chain 12B in an emergency, the second speed change motor 10E sets a reduction ratio or the like larger than that of the first speed change motor 10C used in the first stop method, and the first speed change motor 10C moves the trunnion shaft 10F. The trunnion shaft 10F can be rotated at a higher speed than when rotating. Further, in order to stop the feed chain 12B more quickly, the trunnion shaft 10F is rotated until it slightly exceeds the neutral position to the reverse rotation position, and the rotation of the output shaft 10B is stopped by the rotation sensor 68G. It is preferable to rotate the trunnion shaft 10F from the reverse rotation side position to the neutral position after the rotation of the output shaft 10B is detected again or after 1 to 2 seconds have elapsed.

  In order to remove cereals and the like clogged between the feed chain 12B and the pinch 12C, the rotation direction of the feed chain 12B can be switched by operating the reverse switch 6C. In this case, in order to prevent inadvertent reverse rotation of the feed chain 12B and increase the safety of the auxiliary worker, the feed chain 12B is driven to rotate reversely only when the reverse rotation switch 6C is operated. In order to ensure time to leave the combine, in order to drive the reverse of the feed chain 12B after the reversing switch 6C has been operated for 1 to 2 seconds or to notify the surrounding collaborators of the reverse state of the feed chain 12B It is preferable to sound the horn when the feed chain 12B is reversed.

  In addition, after the stop switch 6D is operated and the feed chain 12B, the engine 62, etc. are stopped, in order to start the engine 62 again, it is necessary to release the mode switch 6B and switch to the normal cutting mode.

  The present invention can be applied to agricultural work vehicles.
