Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 4, an agricultural machine in which a towing vehicle 1 such as a tractor and a working machine 2 such as a cultivator are connected has a long wheel base. It is necessary to give steering properties to the wheels 3 of the work implement 2 in association with the turning of the towing vehicle 1.

近くなった時点で作業機2の車輪3を旋回方向へ急激に
方向転換させることによって、作業機2が小さい半径で
旋回できるようにしたものもある。As such a steering mechanism, there is a steering mechanism that interlocks with the steering of the towing vehicle 1 to steer the wheels 3 of the working machine 2 in the same direction as the towing vehicle 1. Further, as in Japanese Patent No. 20033636, when the towing vehicle 1 turns, at the beginning of turning, the wheels 3 of the work machine 2 are steered in a straight direction, and when the towing vehicle 1 and the work machine 2 are close to series. There is also a machine in which the wheels 3 of the working machine 2 are rapidly turned to the turning direction so that the working machine 2 can turn with a small radius.

It is composed of a switch box 7 and a locking frame 8 fixed to the cam rotating shaft protruding from the switch box 7, and as shown in FIG.
Is fixed to the hitch 5 of the working machine, the locking frame 8 is fixed to the drawbar 4 of the towing vehicle, the angular displacement of the drawbar 4 and the hitch 5 accompanying the turning of the towing vehicle 1 is detected by the switch, and the ON The OFF signal automatically controls the steering mechanism of the wheels 3 of the work machine 2.

チ5を予め傾斜させた姿勢で連結しなければならない。By the way, in the field, in order to work without worrying about the track of the wheels 3 of the working machine 2 behind the driver's seat of the towing vehicle 1, the towing vehicle 1 and the working machine 2 need to work together. It is necessary to arrange one side wheels (left side or right side wheels) in a straight line so that they travel on the same track. However, since the vehicle widths of the towing vehicle 1 and the working machine 2 differ depending on the model, In order to run on the same track, it is often impossible to connect the hitch 5 at a right angle to the drawbar. In such a case, the hitch 5 must be connected in a pre-inclined posture by using a forcing means such as a cylinder.

くなるという問題があった。Therefore, as described above, when the hitch is connected at a predetermined initial tilt angle with the conventional hitch angle sensor in which the cam rotation shaft and the drawbar side locking frame are integrally fixed, the cam has already rotated by that tilt angle. Therefore, there is a problem that an accurate turning angle cannot be detected when the towing vehicle 1 turns.

供することにある。Therefore, an object of the present invention is to keep the cam of the switch box always at the reference position (0 angle position) of the switch, no matter how the angles of the hitch and drawbar, that is, the directions of the switch box and the locking frame are different. It is to provide a hitch angle sensor that can be corrected and fixed to a locking frame.
