[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a speed change lever guide for a riding traveling machine body used for a riding rice transplanter or the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, the transmission of a passenger traveling vehicle used for a rice transplanter has a main transmission (transmission) and an auxiliary transmission (continuously variable transmission), and the forward, neutral, and reverse transmissions are controlled by the main transmission. In addition, the auxiliary transmission is used to adjust the speed from high speed to low speed. Therefore, two main shift levers for the main transmission and a sub-transmission lever for the sub-transmission are required, and there is a problem in operability, and space is taken for grounding, which hinders the compactness of the riding vehicle. It was.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 By the way, in order to make the above-mentioned invention into a compact device, the main / auxiliary transmission and the rotating shaft are arranged at a lower position of the engine rear cover, and the gearshift lever is extended upward from the lower cover to mount the lever. It was required to simplify the motion transmission mechanism. When the gear shift lever constructed in this way is actually operated, it is difficult to visually recognize the gear shift position, despite the fact that the tip position of the lever moves considerably considerably. It was necessary to check the shift position.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems. Under the engine rear cover, the main transmission and the speed transmission are connected to a single speed change lever, and the area around the engine compartment is made compact. It is an object of the present invention to provide a shift lever guide for a passenger traveling vehicle body that can be mounted by extending upward from a portion and easily confirming a shift position.

[0005]

Means for Solving the Problems A shift lever guide of a passenger traveling machine body of the present invention for achieving the above object is capable of rotating a transmission lever of the passenger traveling machine body in two directions intersecting each other and an engine rear. Attach by extending upward from below the cover side, turning the speed change lever in one direction activates the main transmission for forward / neutral / reverse, and rotating it in the other direction activates the auxiliary transmission. In this way, a panel-shaped gear shift lever guide indicating the gear shift position is attached near the rotation axis of this gear shift lever so that it surrounds the gear shift lever rotation area. A lever is attached to the lever so that at least part of the display range is indicated.

As the means for attaching the speed change lever guide so that the position can be adjusted, a normal means having a screw hole for fixing the speed change lever guide can be used as it is, but the present invention is not limited to this. As the means for displaying the gear shift position on the gear shift lever guide, for example, in addition to the display of characters such as forward, neutral, reverse, high speed, low speed, etc., it is also possible to use a display means that can be easily recognized by a symbol or the like. Can Further, the sub transmission refers to a transmission that performs a gear shift operation other than the main transmission, such as a continuously variable transmission or a stepped transmission.

[0007]

[Action]

 The gear shift lever guide displaying the gear shift position can easily confirm the gear shift position by comparing the position of the gear shift lever or the indicator rod attached to the gear shift lever with the display. Therefore, by arranging the shift lever guide near the center of rotation of the shift lever, the driver can easily confirm the shift position even with a small size.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIGS. 1 and 2, a gear shift lever 1 is mounted in a gearbox chamber 3 of a passenger traveling vehicle T and operates a main gearbox and a continuously variable gearbox (both not shown) housed in the gearbox chamber 3. For this reason, the grip 1a shown in FIG. 1 is attached rotatably in the left-right direction and the front-rear direction as indicated by the arrow, and extends upward from the lower left side of the panel rear cover 2a. An engine (not shown) is arranged in an engine room defined by a bonnet 2b and a panel rear cover 2a, a fuel tank 4c is arranged above it, and a cap 4b is exposed on the bonnet 2b.

Explaining other parts, the steering column 4c is attached to the front of the meter panel 4e. In addition, a choke lever 4d, an engine key 4m, an auxiliary variable speed bar 4f, and a throttle control lever 4g are projected from the panel rear cover 2a. Reference numeral 4h shown in FIG. 1 is a pedestal of an auxiliary tool for agricultural work, reference numerals 4i and 4j are pedals, and 4k is a spoke (not shown) of a steering wheel, and the auxiliary speed change lever 4f is used for road traveling and work traveling. To switch to.

The gear shift lever guide 1a is attached to a portion where the gear shift lever 1 projects from the panel rear cover 2a, and is formed in a wa-shape that surrounds a rotation region A of the gear shift lever 1 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3A to 3C. did. The shape in which one side is separated in this way is for facilitating the assembling of the speed change lever 1 after the passenger traveling machine body T. However, the shift lever guide 1a of the present invention is not limited to the above shape. The gear shift lever 1 has a bent shape in order to avoid interference with the knees of a driver (not shown) when the gear shift lever 1 is rotated, and the gear shift lever 1 has different layouts. It can be shaped.

In the structure of the speed change lever guide 1a, a template 1b is made of a material having high rigidity such as an iron plate and is shaped like a wa, and a display panel 1d is placed on the template 1b to keep the posture slightly raised toward the driver's seat side. It was attached to the panel rear cover 2a by a bracket 1c fixed to the template 1b. It should be noted that the bracket 1c is provided with a screw hole 1h formed of a stupid hole so that the mounting position can be finely adjusted. The display panel 1d is obtained by processing a white plastic plate or the like and printing the display D 1 of high speed, low speed, reverse, neutral, forward, etc. on the surface. Then, as shown in FIG. 1, an indicator rod 1f consisting of a small protrusion pointing in the direction D indicating the reverse, neutral, and forward directions is attached to the speed change lever 1 and displayed relatively close to the reverse, neutral, and forward speed change positions. Easy to see. The two-dot chain line 1e shown in FIG. 3A indicates the locus of the rotation of the shift lever (not shown).

Next, an outline of a structure for operating the main transmission 5a and the continuously variable transmission 5b only by the shift lever 1 will be described with reference to FIG. A belt type continuously variable transmission 5b is provided between the output shaft 6a of the engine 6 and the input shaft 5c of the main transmission 5a. Further, an extension shaft 1g is attached to the base side of the speed change lever 1, and a left and right rotation shaft 5d and a front and rear rotation shaft 5e are attached to the extension shaft 1g. When the speed change lever 1 rotates left and right, the extension plate 1g is loosely attached to the front and rear direction rotation, and the shaft 5g that is driven only by the left and right direction rotation is rotated to move the transmission lever 5f. Move in and out in 3 stages, and perform forward, neutral, and reverse gear shifting operations. When the gear shift lever 1 is rotated back and forth, the belt 5 j is moved via the lever 5h attached to the rotary shaft 5e and the link 5i to continuously change the rotation ratio. Therefore, one shift lever 1 can perform two types of shift operations.

As described above, the speed change lever guide 1a of the present embodiment is attached to the rotation shaft side where the rotation area A of the speed change lever 1 is narrow, so that the speed change lever guide 1a can be downsized and the layout is not an obstacle. In addition, the shift position can be easily viewed from the driver's seat. Therefore, it is not necessary to move the shift lever 1 by a simple means to search for the shift position, and driving operability can be improved. To remove the panel rear cover 2a, it is sufficient to lift the panel rear cover 2a upward while pulling it out with the gear shift lever guide 1a still attached, and to remove it from the gear shift lever 1, which improves the ease of assembly and maintenance. Further, since the shift lever guide 1a is formed separately from the panel rear cover 2a, the relative position with respect to the shift lever 1 can be easily adjusted when the relative position varies due to the manufacturing tolerance of each component. .

[0014]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, in the shift lever guide of the passenger traveling vehicle body of the present invention, since the shift lever guide is attached to the shift lever, the shift position can be easily checked, so that the driving operability is improved. In addition, even if it is attached to the base of the gearshift lever, it is easy to see the variable speed position from the driver's seat, so it is easy to downsize, and it does not hinder the downsizing of the riding machine. In addition, the gear shift lever guide is made as a separate body and is attached to the riding machine by assembling, so the gear shift position of the gear shift lever and the above-mentioned display position may differ due to the assembly error due to the manufacturing tolerance of each component. The discrepancy between and can be easily corrected and the shift position can be confirmed accurately.
