【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は例えば圃場の穀稈を連続的に刈取って脱穀するコンバインまたは耕耘トラクタまたは圃場管理車などの移動農機に関する。
【0002】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
従来、左右走行クローラを装設したコンバインを圃場の未刈り穀稈列に沿わせて走行移動させ乍ら収穫作業を行うと共に、圃場枕地で前記コンバインを方向転換させて次工程の未刈り穀稈列に移動させていたが、エンジン出力を変速伝達するミッションケースの左右走行出力を左右サイドクラッチを介して左右走行クローラに伝達させ、左右サイドクラッチの継断操作により左右走行クローラの一方を一時的に停止させて旋回させることにより、左右サイドクラッチ操作と走行変速操作の両方を作業者が略同時期に行う必要があり、また圃場枕地で方向転換するときの旋回半径が大きくなる不具合がある。
【0003】
また、エンジンの動力を各別に伝える左右油圧無段変速機を設けて左右走行クローラを駆動することにより、旋回時の減速並びに旋回半径の縮少などを容易に行えるが、直進性能が低下し易く、未刈り穀稈列に沿わせて走行移動させる操向操作が面倒になる不具合がある。
【0004】
そこで、左右走行クローラに差動機構を介しエンジン動力を変速伝達する単一の油圧式走行用無段変速機構と、差動機構を介し旋回内側の走行クローラを減速し且つ旋回外側の走行クローラを増速させる油圧式旋回用無段変速機構とを設けて、直進性を良好に維持し、且つ旋回半径も容易に縮少する手段があるが、走行用及び旋回用無段変速機構の駆動を同一駆動軸で行うように設けて、該駆動軸をベルトでエンジンに連動連結させる構造の場合、ベルトが破損すると各無段変速機構も停止し、直進及び旋回の何れもが行えなくなるという不都合があった。また、各無段変速機構を無段階に変速動作させるトラニオンなどの操作制御部材は各無段変速機構の側面部に通常設けられる構造のため、操向ハンドルや主変速レバーなど操作部材との連結構造が複雑となるばかりでなく、調整・交換・点検などメンテナンス作業時にあっては機体上方から容易に行うことが難しく作業性の悪いものであった。さらに走行用及び旋回用無段変速機構は通常同一形状(容量)のため、例えば機体前側のミッションケース上部にこれら無段変速機構を前後に配置させる場合にあっては、走行用或いは旋回用無段変速機構の最前端部が前方に突出する状態となって、この前方の刈取部と干渉するなどの不都合があった。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
そこで、本発明では、エンジン(21)の駆動力を左右走行クローラ(2)に伝える差動機構(33)と、左右走行クローラ(2)の駆動速度を変速レバー(73)を介して変更させる変速部材(25)と、左右走行クローラ(2)の駆動速度の差を操向ハンドル(19)を介して変化させる操向部材(28)を設ける移動農機において、運転台(18)にステアリングコラム(71)を設け、ステアリングコラム(71)の上方側に操向ハンドル(19)を縦軸回りに回転自在に取付けると共に、運転台(18)に変速レバー(73)を配設し、ステアリングコラム(71)の内部に、操向ハンドル(19)に連結して走行進路を変更させる操向機構(118)と、変速レバー(73)に連結して走行速度の変更並びに前後進の切換を行う変速機構(124)とを配設し、ステアリングコラム(71)の底部に、変速操作軸(125)と操向操作軸(126)とを略垂直に設け、ステアリングコラム(71)の内部に延設した変速操作軸(125)の上部を変速機構(124)に連結すると共に、ステアリングコラム(71)の底面下方に突設した変速操作軸(125)の下部を前記変速部材(25)に連結する一方、ステアリングコラム(71)の内部に延設した操向操作軸(126)の上部を操向機構(118)に連結すると共に、ステアリングコラム(71)の底面下方に突設した操向操作軸(126)の下部を前記操向部材(28)に連結したことを特徴とする移動農機を提供するものである。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、本発明の実施例を図面に基づいて詳述する。図1はコンバインの全体側面図、図2は同平面図であり、図中(1)は左右一対の走行クローラ(2)を装設するトラックフレーム、(3)は前記トラックフレーム(1)に架設する機台、(4)はフィードチェン(5)を左側に張架し扱胴(6)及び処理胴(7)を内蔵している脱穀部、(8)は刈刃(9)及び穀稈搬送機構(10)などを備える刈取部、(11)は刈取フレーム(12)を介して刈取部(8)を昇降させる油圧シリンダ、(13)は排藁チェン(14)終端を臨ませる排藁処理部、(15)は脱穀部(4)からの穀粒を揚穀筒(16)を介して搬入する穀物タンク、(17)は前記タンク(15)の穀粒を機外に搬出する排出オーガ、(18)は旋回用操作部材である丸形操向ハンドル(19)及び運転席(20)などを備える運転台、(21)は運転席(20)下方に設けるエンジンであり、連続的に穀稈を刈取って脱穀するように構成している。
【0012】
さらに、図3に示す如く、前記走行クローラ(2)を駆動するミッションケース(22)は、1対の第1油圧ポンプ(23)及び第1油圧モータ(24)を備えて走行主変速用の油圧式無段変速機構を形成する変速部材(25)と、1対の第2油圧ポンプ(26)及び第2油圧モータ(27)を備えて旋回用の油圧式無段変速機構を形成する操向部材(28)とを備え、前記エンジン(21)の出力軸(21a)に第1及び第2油圧ポンプ(23)(26)の入力軸(29a)(29b)を伝達ベルト(30a)(30b)によって連結させ、前記各油圧ポンプ(23)(26)を駆動するように構成している。
【0013】
また、前記第1油圧モータ(24)の出力軸(31)に、副変速機構(32)及び差動機構(33)を介して左右走行クローラ(2)の各駆動輪(34)を連動連結させるもので、前記差動機構(33)は左右対称の1対の遊星ギヤ機構(35)(35)を有し、各遊星ギヤ機構(35)は1つのサンギヤ(36)と、該サンギヤ(36)の外周で噛合う3つのプラネタリギヤ(37)と、これらプラネタリギヤ(37)に噛合うリングギヤ(38)などで形成している。
【0014】
前記プラネタリギヤ(37)はサンギヤ軸(39)と同軸線上とのキャリヤ軸(40)のキャリヤ(41)にそれぞれ回転自在に軸支させ、左右のサンギヤ(36)(36)を挾んで左右のキャリヤ(41)を対向配置させると共に、前記リングギヤ(38)は各プラネタリギヤ(37)に噛み合う内歯(38a)を有してサンギヤ軸(39)とは同一軸芯上に配置させ、キャリヤ軸(40)に回転自在に軸支させ、キャリヤ軸(40)を延設して車軸を形成して駆動輪(34)を軸支させている。
【0015】
また、走行用の油圧式無段変速部材(25)は、第1油圧ポンプ(23)の回転斜板の角度変更調節により第1油圧モータ(24)の正逆回転と回転数の制御を行うもので、第1油圧モータ(24)の回転出力を出力軸(31)の伝達ギヤ(42)より各ギヤ(43)(44)(45)及び副変速機構(32)を介して、サンギヤ軸(39)に固定したセンタギヤ(46)に伝達してサンギヤ(36)を回転するように構成している。前記副変速機構(32)は、前記ギヤ(44)を有する副変速軸(47)と、前記ギヤ(45)を介してセンタギヤ(46)に噛合うギヤ(48)を有する駐車ブレーキ軸(49)とを備え、副変速軸(47)とブレーキ軸(49)間に各1対の低速用ギヤ(50)(51)・中速用ギヤ(52)(53)・高速用ギヤ(54)(48)を設けて、低中速スライダ(55)及び高速スライダ(56)のスライド操作によって副変速の低速・中速・高速の切換を行うように構成している。なお低速・中速間及び中速・高速間には中立を有する。また前記ブレーキ軸(49)に駐車ブレーキ(57)を設けると共に、刈取部(8)に回転力を伝達する刈取PTO軸(58)にギヤ(59)(60)及び一方向クラッチ(61)を介して副変速軸(47)を連結させ、刈取部(8)を車速同調速度で駆動している。
【0016】
上記のように、前記センタギヤ(46)を介しサンギヤ軸(39)に伝達された第1油圧モータ(24)からの駆動力を、左右の遊星ギヤ機構(35)を介して左右キャリヤ軸(40)に伝達させると共に、左右キャリヤ軸(40)に伝達された回転を左右の駆動輪(34)にそれぞれ伝え、左右走行クローラ(2)を駆動するように構成している。
【0017】
さらに、旋回用の油圧式無段変速機構で形成する操向部材(28)は、第2油圧ポンプ(26)の回転斜板の角度変更調節により第2油圧モータ(27)の正逆回転と回転数の制御を行うもので、操向出力ブレーキ(62)を有するブレーキ軸(63)と、操向出力クラッチ(64)を有するクラッチ軸(65)と、前記の左右リングギヤ(38)の外歯(38b)に常時噛合させる左右入力ギヤ(66)(67)を設け、第2油圧モータ(27)の出力軸(68)に前記ブレーキ軸(63)及び操向出力クラッチ(64)を介してクラッチ軸(65)を連結させ、クラッチ軸(65)に正転ギヤ(69)を介して右入力ギヤ(67)を連結させ、またクラッチ軸(65)に正転ギヤ(69)及び逆転ギヤ(70)を介して左入力ギヤ(66)を連結させている。そして、副変速スライダ(55)(56)の中立によって前記ブレーキ(62)を入にしかつクラッチ(64)を切にする一方、前記中立以外の副変速出力時にブレーキ(62)を切にしかつクラッチ(64)を入にし、右側のリングギヤ(38)の外歯(38b)に正転ギヤ(69)を介してモータ(27)回転力を伝え、また左側のリングギヤ(38)の外歯(38b)に正転ギヤ(69)及び逆転ギヤ(70)を介してモータ(27)回転を伝え、第2油圧モータ(27)を正転(逆転)時、左右同一回転数で、左リングギヤ(38)を逆転(正転)させ、かつ右リングギヤ(38)を正転(逆転)とさせるように構成している。
【0018】
而して、旋回用の第2油圧モータ(27)を停止させて左右リングギヤ(38)を静止固定させた状態で、走行用の第1油圧モータ(24)を駆動すると、第1油圧モータ(24)からの回転出力はセンタギヤ(46)から左右のサンギヤ(36)に同一回転数で伝達され、左右遊星ギヤ機構(35)のプラネタリギヤ(37)・キャリヤ(41)を介して左右の走行クローラ(2)が左右同一回転方向で同一回転数によって駆動され、機体の前後方向直進走行が行われる。一方、走行用の第1油圧モータ(24)を停止させて左右のサンギヤ(36)を静止固定させた状態で、旋回用の第2油圧モータ(27)を正逆回転駆動すると、左側の遊星ギヤ機構(35)が正或いは逆回転、また右側の遊星ギヤ機構(35)が逆或いは正回転し、左右走行クローラ(2)を逆方向に駆動し、機体を左或いは右に旋回させる。また、走行用の第1油圧モータ(24)を駆動させながら、旋回用の第2油圧モータ(27)を駆動することにより、機体が左右に旋回して進路が修正されるもので、機体の旋回半径は第2油圧モータ(27)の出力回転数によって決定される。
【0019】
さらに、図2、図4乃至図13に示す如く、前記運転台(18)の前部上面にステアリングコラム(71)を立設固定させ、ステアリングコラム(71)上面上方側に操向ハンドル(19)を縦軸回りに回転自在に取付けると共に、運転台(18)左側にサイドコラム(72)を設け、サイドコラム(72)下方にミッション(22)を配設させ、走行用操作部材である主変速レバー(73)、副変速レバー(74)、刈取クラッチレバー(75)、脱穀クラッチレバー(76)を前記サイドコラム(72)に取付ける。また、前記ステアリングコラム(71)は、アルミニウム合金鋳物を成形加工して形成し、左右に分割自在な2つ割れ構造で複数のボルト(77)で締結して箱形に形成している。

また、変速入力連結部(116)と、操向入力連結部(122)を、変速入力軸(91)と操向入力軸(87)の軸芯交点(B)を中心とする円周(C)上で約90度離間させ、変速入力軸(91)の回転によって操向入力連結部(116)を一定位置に維持させかつ変速入力連結部(122)の変位量を最大にして走行変速を行わせると共に、前記各入力連結部(116)(122)を移動させる平面上に変速入力軸(91)を配置させる構造で各連結部(116)(122)の移動量を容易に確保し、コンパクトで機能的に変速入力部材(96)及び操向入力部材(95)を配置させるもので、操向入力軸(87)回りに約90度の範囲内で変速入力連結部(122)及び操向入力連結部(116)を移動させ、前後進切換による逆ハンドル現像の防止並びに各入力連結部(116)(122)の移動量の確保と共に、操向入力軸(87)を回転させる操向角度に応じて変速入力連結部(122)を減速方向に移動させる動作と、旋回内側の走行クローラ(2)を中心に方向転換させるスピンターン動作を容易に行わせ、コンパクトな構造で機能的に構成している。変速出力軸(119)及び操向出力軸(113)を変速入力軸(91)と略平行に設け、前記各出力軸(113)(119)を複数に分割自在なケースを形成するコラム(71)に高精度で軸支させると共に、変速入力軸(91)並びに前記各出力軸(113)(119)を左右方向に延設させることによって機体前後方向の連結構造を容易に得られ、主変速レバー(73)と変速入力軸(91)の連結、並びに変速部材(25)及び操向部材(28)と前記出力軸(113)(119)との連結を容易に行え、操作構造の簡略化並びに取扱い性向上などを図れるように構成している。
【0032】
さらに、図14、図15に示す如く、前記連係ボルト(97)を遊嵌挿通させる位相調節孔(149)を操向入力部材(95)に開設させると共に、操向入力軸(87)芯線を中心とする同一放射線上に複数(3個)のネジ孔(150)を設け、前記放射線を中心に操向入力軸(87)側を底辺とする台形に前記位相調節孔(149)を形成するもので、直進位置の操向ハンドル(19)を左右回転操作したとき、前記ネジ孔(150)に固定させた連係ボルト(97)が位相調節孔(149)縁に当接するまで、変速入力部材(96)を挾みバネ(98)によって一定位置に固定させた状態で、操向入力部材(95)だけを回転させ、走行速度を略一定に保ち乍ら左右に旋回させて進路を修正する。そして、連係ボルト(97)が位相調節孔(149)縁に当接したとき、操向ハンドル(19)をさらに同一方向に回転操作することにより、連係ボルト(97)の連結によって操向入力部材(95)と変速入力部材(96)の両方がバネ(98)に抗して回転し、走行速度を減速させ乍ら進路修正を行うもので、操向ハンドル(19)操作によって決定される旋回半径と走行速度の減速量が比例して変化すると共に、操向ハンドル(19)を直進位置に戻すことにより、挾みバネ(98)によって変速入力部材(96)が中立位置に戻され、元の走行速度に自動的に復帰する。また、連係ボルト(97)を各ネジ孔(150)に付け換えることにより、位相調節孔(149)縁に連係ボルト(97)が当接するまでの操向入力部材(95)の回転角度が変化し、操向ハンドル(19)操作による走行速度の減速開始時期を調整できると共に、操向ハンドル(19)を直進支持しているとき、挾みバネ(98)によって変速入力部材(96)が変速入力軸(91)に固定され、機械振動などによって変速入力部材(96)が遊動するのを防ぎ、変速入力部材(96)のふらつきによって走行速度が減速変化するのを阻止している。
【0033】
さらに、図16乃至図20に示す如く、前記ギヤ(88)は、270度の外周範囲に複数の歯(151)を形成し、90度の外周範囲を円弧(152)に形成し、操向ハンドル(19)の全回転角度を270度とし、左操向回転または右操向回転の角度を135度に設定し、操向ハンドル(19)回転操作を片手で作業者が容易に行えるように形成する。また、前記セクタギヤ(89)は、130度の外周範囲に複数の歯(153)を形成し、230度の外周範囲を円弧カム(154)に形成し、前記ギヤ(88)の歯(151)とセクタギヤ(89)の歯(153)を噛合せ、各ギヤ(88)(89)の最大正逆転時、前記円弧(152)両端のストッパ(155)と前記円弧カム(154)両端のストッパ(156)を当接させ、操向ハンドル(19)の回転を規制すると共に、操向入力軸(87)芯線回りに操向入力部材(95)及び変速入力部材(96)を65度の範囲で正転または逆転させ、各入力部材(95)が回転移動する平面上に変速入力軸(91)及び主変速部材(110)上端部を配置させる空間を確保し、変速入力軸(91)芯線上に操向入力連結部(116)を設ける構造、並びに同一円周上で前記各入力連結部(116)(122)を90度離間させる構造を容易に得られ、構造のコンパクト化、設計組立の簡略化などを図れるように構成している。
【0034】
また、前記セクタギヤ(89)の円弧カム(154)中央に直進ノッチ(157)を形成すると共に、前記ステアリングコラム(71)上面壁にデテント軸(158)を回転自在に軸支させ、デテント軸(158)下端部にデテントアーム(159)を固定させ、デテントアーム(159)にローラ軸(160)を介してデテントローラ(161)を回転自在に軸支させ、前記円弧カム(154)にデテントローラ(161)を当接させ、直進ノッチ(157)に係脱自在にデテントローラ(161)を係合させ、操向ハンドル(19)を直進位置に支持させる。また、前記デテント軸(158)上端側にデテントレバー(162)を固定させ、デテント軸(158)に巻装させる中立バネ(163)の一端をデテントレバー(162)に係止させ、ステアリングコラム(71)の受板(164)に中立バネ(163)の他端を当接させ、円弧カム(154)及び直進ノッチ(157)にデテントローラ(161)を中立バネ(163)によって弾圧当接させている。また、操向ハンドル(19)の直進位置をオンオフ切換によって電気的に検出するマイクロスイッチ型直進センサ(165)をデテントレバー(162)に取付けている。
【0035】
而して、前記主変速レバー(73)が中立のとき、操向ハンドル(19)の正転(逆転)操作により、操向入力軸(87)芯線回りに前記各入力部材(95)(96)及び各結合部材(115)(121)が円錐軌跡上で移動し、前記各出力部材(114)(120)及び各出力軸(113)(119)が停止した状態が維持される。
【0036】
また、主変速レバー(73)を前方(後方)に倒す前進(後進)操作により、前記各入力部材(95)(96)が変速入力軸(91)芯線回りに前方(後方)に傾き、操向入力連結部(116)が一定位置に停止した状態を維持し乍ら、変速入力連結部(122)を上方(下方)に移動させ、変速出力部材(120)の上方(下方)揺動によって変速出力軸(119)を正転(逆転)させ、変速部材(23)の第1油圧ポンプ(23)の斜板角切換によって第1油圧モータ(24)を正転(逆転)させ、第1油圧モータ(24)の出力軸(31)の正転(逆転)によって左右走行クローラ(2)を前進(後進)駆動する。また、主変速レバー(73)の倒し角に比例して出力軸(31)の回転数が変化し、走行クローラ(2)の前進(後進)速度が無段階に変速される。
【0037】
さらに、主変速レバー(73)を前方(後方)に倒して前進(後進)操作を行っている状態下で、操向ハンドル(19)を左方向(右方向)に回転させることにより、変速入力軸(91)芯線回りに操向入力部材(95)が前方(後方)に傾いた姿勢で操向入力軸(87)芯線回りに正転(逆転)し、操向入力連結部(116)が下方(上方)に移動し、操向出力部材(114)の下方(上方)揺動によって操向出力軸(113)を正転(逆転)させ、操向部材(28)の第2油圧ポンプ(26)の斜板角切換によって第2油圧モータ(27)を正転(逆転)させ、第2油圧モータ(27)の出力軸(68)の正転(逆転)により、左走行クローラ(2)を減速(増速)させ、かつ右走行クローラ(2)を増速(減速)させ、左方向(右方向)に機体を旋回させて左方向(右方向)に進路を修正する。また、前記の進路修正動作と同時に、操向ハンドル(19)の左方向(右方向)回転により、変速入力軸(91)芯線回りに変速入力部材(96)が前方(後方)に傾いた状態で操向入力軸(87)芯線回りに正転(逆転)し、変速入力連結部(122)が下方(上方)に移動し、変速出力部材(120)の下方(上方)揺動によって変速出力軸(119)を逆転(正転)させ、変速部材(25)を中立方向に戻す制御を行って出力軸(31)の回転数を低下させ、走行速度(車速)を減速させる。このように、走行移動中の操向ハンドル(19)の左右操向操作により、操向ハンドル(19)の回転角度に比例して、進路を修正する旋回半径(角度)と、走行速度の減速量が変化し、操向ハンドル(19)を大きく回転させることによって左右走行クローラ(2)の速度差を大きくして旋回半径を小さくすると同時に、走行速度の減速量が多くなって車速が遅くなると共に、前進時と後進時とでは、操向ハンドル(19)の回転に対して旋回入力連結部(116)の動きを逆方向にし、前後進の何れにおいても操向ハンドル(19)の回動操作方向と機体の旋回方向とを一致させ、回転操作する丸形の操向ハンドル(19)の回転操作によって例えばトラクタまたは田植機など四輪自動車と同様の運転感覚で進路修正及び方向転換などを行う。
【0038】
さらに、図19、図20は機体の左右旋回時における操向ハンドル(19)の切れ角と左右走行クローラ(2)の速度の関係を示すもので、ハンドル(19)の切れ角が大となる程左右走行クローラ(2)の速度差は大となると共に、左右走行クローラ(2)の平均速度となる機体中心速度も走行速度(高速・標準・低速)状態に応じて減速される。直進位置の操向ハンドル(19)を左方向(右方向)に約15度回転させると、前記位相調節孔(149)内を連係ボルト(97)が移動し、挾みバネ(98)によって変速入力部材(96)が直進と同一位置に維持されると共に、操向部材(28)の第2油圧ポンプ(26)によって第2油圧モータ(27)を正転(逆転)させる操向出力によって左方向(右方向)に旋回させ、未刈り穀稈(作物)列の湾曲に合せる進路修正を行う。このとき、旋回内側の走行クローラ(2)の減速量と、旋回外側の走行クローラ(2)の増速量が略等しくなり、機体中心速度が直進と略同一速度に保たれる。また、操向ハンドル(19)を直進位置から15度以上回転させると、挾みバネ(98)に抗して変速入力部材(96)が左旋回及び右旋回のいずれでも減速動作し、第1油圧ポンプ(23)及びモータ(24)の走行変速出力を減速させ、左右走行クローラ(2)(2)を同一方向に回転駆動させて前進(または後進)させ、左右走行クローラ(2)(2)の走行速度差により左方向(右方向)に旋回するブレーキターン動作を行わせ、未刈り穀稈(作物)列から外れたときに元の列に戻したり隣の列に移動させる進路修正を行う。さらに、操向ハンドル(19)を約135度回転させると、機体中心速度が直進時の約4分の1に減速され、旋回内側の走行クローラ(2)が逆転駆動され、旋回内側の走行クローラ(2)を中心として機体が旋回するスピンターン動作が行われ、左右走行クローラ(2)の左右幅だけ旋回方向にずらせて機体を180度方向転換させるもので、ハンドル角度0度からハンドル角度135度の範囲で操向ハンドル(19)を回転させて左または右方向の旋回操作を行い、直進位置を中心とした左右15度のハンドル(19)回転範囲で未刈り穀稈(作物)列に沿って移動する条合せ進路修正を、直進時の走行速度を維持し乍ら行うと共に、直進位置から左右135度のハンドル(19)回転により、圃場枕地で機体を方向転換させて次作業工程に移動させるスピンターン動作を、直進時の約4分の1の走行速度に自動的に減速して行う。
【0039】
さらに、副変速を標準(秒速1.5メートル)速度に保ち、操向ハンドル(19)を90度回転させたとき、主変速レバー(68)操作により主変速出力を高速及び3分の2及び3分の1に変更しても、機体の旋回半径が略一定に保たれた状態で、旋回速度(機体中心速度)だけを変化させる。また、直進位置を基準として連係ボルト(97)と位相調節孔(149)の設定範囲で第1油圧ポンプ(23)第1油圧モータ(24)を直進状態に維持させ、農作業中に作物列または畦などに機体を沿わせる操向操作を行っても走行速度が不均一に変化するのを防止し、略同一走行速度を保ち乍ら農作業中の進路修正を行え、作業者の運転感覚と機体の走行動作とを略一致させて適正な操向操作を行える。また、主変速レバー(73)の変速基準値を切換える副変速レバー(74)副変速操作の低速及び標準及び高速切換に比例させて旋回半径を小径乃至大径に変化させ、第1油圧ポンプ(23)及びモータ(24)と走行クローラ(2)間の減速比並びに第2油圧ポンプ(26)及びモータ(27)と走行クローラ(2)間の減速比の設定、或いはスピンターン動作に必要な小半径旋回に必要な走行駆動力の確保などを図ると共に、同一副変速操作位置で主変速レバー(73)を操作することによって旋回半径を略一定に保った状態で旋回時の走行速度を変化させ、作業者の熟練度などに応じた運転操作を行え、機動性の向上並びに運転操作性の向上などを図る。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a mobile agricultural machine such as a combine or a tilling tractor or a field management vehicle that continuously harvests and thresh cereals in a field.
[0002]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Conventionally, a harvester is moved by moving a combine equipped with left and right traveling crawlers along an uncut grain row in a field, and the combine is turned in a field headland to change the combine in the next step. Although it was moved in a row, the left and right traveling output of the transmission case transmitting the engine output is transmitted to the left and right traveling crawlers via the left and right side clutches, and one of the left and right traveling crawlers is temporarily suspended by the intermittent operation of the left and right side clutches. When the vehicle is stopped and turned, it is necessary for the operator to perform both the left and right side clutch operations and the traveling speed change operation at substantially the same time, and the turning radius when turning in the field headland increases. is there.
[0003]
In addition, by providing left and right hydraulic continuously variable transmissions that transmit engine power separately and driving the left and right traveling crawlers, deceleration during turning and turning radius can be easily reduced, but straight running performance tends to deteriorate. There is a problem that the steering operation for traveling along the uncut grain row is troublesome.
[0004]
Therefore, a single hydraulic traveling continuously variable transmission mechanism that transmits engine power to the left and right traveling crawlers via a differential mechanism, and a traveling crawler that decelerates the traveling crawler on the inner side of the turning and a traveling crawler on the outer side of the turning through the differential mechanism There is a means to increase the speed of the hydraulic turning continuously variable transmission mechanism for maintaining the straight running performance and to easily reduce the turning radius. In the case of a structure in which the drive shaft is provided so as to be linked to the engine by a belt, if the belt is damaged, each continuously variable transmission mechanism is stopped, and neither the straight drive nor the turn can be performed. there were. Also, operation control members such as trunnions that cause each continuously variable transmission mechanism to perform a stepless speed change operation are usually provided on the side surface of each continuously variable transmission mechanism, so that they are connected to operation members such as steering handles and main transmission levers. Not only the structure becomes complicated, but also during maintenance work such as adjustment, replacement, and inspection, it is difficult to carry out easily from above the aircraft and the workability is poor. Further, the continuously variable transmission mechanism for traveling and turning usually has the same shape (capacity). For example, when these continuously variable transmission mechanisms are arranged at the front and rear of the transmission case on the front side of the machine body, There is a disadvantage that the foremost end portion of the step transmission mechanism protrudes forward and interferes with the front cutting portion.

[0034]
A straight notch (157) is formed at the center of the circular arc cam (154) of the sector gear (89), and a detent shaft (158) is rotatably supported on the upper surface wall of the steering column (71). 158) The detent arm (159) is fixed to the lower end, the detent arm (159) is rotatably supported by the detent arm (159) via the roller shaft (160), and the arc cam (154) is detent-rolled. (161) is brought into contact, and the detent roller (161) is detachably engaged with the rectilinear notch (157) to support the steering handle (19) in the rectilinear position. Further, the detent lever (162) is fixed to the upper end side of the detent shaft (158), and one end of the neutral spring (163) wound around the detent shaft (158) is locked to the detent lever (162), and the steering column ( 71) is brought into contact with the receiving plate (164) of the neutral spring (163), and the detent roller (161) is brought into elastic contact with the arc cam (154) and the straight notch (157) by the neutral spring (163). ing. Further, a microswitch type rectilinear sensor (165) that electrically detects the rectilinear position of the steering handle (19) by switching on and off is attached to the detent lever (162).
[0035]
Thus, when the main speed change lever (73) is neutral, the input members (95) (96) around the steering input shaft (87) core line by the forward (reverse) operation of the steering handle (19). ) And the coupling members (115) and (121) move on a conical locus, and the output members (114) and (120) and the output shafts (113) and (119) are stopped.
[0036]
Further, by the forward (reverse) operation of tilting the main transmission lever (73) forward (rearward), the input members (95) (96) are tilted forward (rearward) around the core line of the speed change input shaft (91) and operated. While maintaining the state where the direction input connecting portion (116) is stopped at a certain position, the shift input connecting portion (122) is moved upward (downward), and the shift output member (120) is swung upward (downward). The transmission output shaft (119) is rotated forward (reverse), and the first hydraulic motor (24) is rotated forward (reverse) by switching the swash plate angle of the first hydraulic pump (23) of the transmission member (23). The left and right traveling crawler (2) is driven forward (reverse) by forward rotation (reverse rotation) of the output shaft (31) of the hydraulic motor (24). Further, the rotation speed of the output shaft (31) changes in proportion to the tilt angle of the main transmission lever (73), and the forward (reverse) speed of the traveling crawler (2) is steplessly changed.
[0037]
Further, under the condition that the main shift lever (73) is moved forward (rearward) and the forward (reverse) operation is performed, the steering handle (19) is rotated leftward (rightward) to thereby input the shift. The steering input member (95) rotates forward (reversely) about the steering input shaft (87) around the core line in a posture in which the steering input member (95) is tilted forward (rearward) around the axis (91), and the steering input connecting portion (116) is The steering output shaft (113) is normally rotated (reversed) by the downward (upward) swing of the steering output member (114), and the second hydraulic pump ( 26) forward rotation (reverse rotation) of the second hydraulic motor (27) by switching the swash plate angle, and left rotation crawler (2) by forward rotation (reverse rotation) of the output shaft (68) of the second hydraulic motor (27). Is decelerated (accelerated) and the right traveling crawler (2) is accelerated (decelerated) to the left (right To thereby pivot the body to correct the path to the left (right). Simultaneously with the course correcting operation, the shift input member (96) is tilted forward (rear) around the core line of the shift input shaft (91) by the leftward (rightward) rotation of the steering handle (19). The steering input shaft (87) rotates forward (reversely) around the core wire, the shift input connecting portion (122) moves downward (upward), and the shift output (120) swings downward (upward) to produce shift output. The shaft (119) is reversely rotated (normally rotated), and the speed change member (25) is controlled to return to the neutral direction to reduce the rotational speed of the output shaft (31), thereby reducing the traveling speed (vehicle speed). As described above, by the left / right steering operation of the steering handle (19) during traveling, the turning radius (angle) for correcting the course is proportional to the rotation angle of the steering handle (19), and the traveling speed is reduced. By changing the amount and rotating the steering handle (19) largely, the speed difference between the left and right traveling crawlers (2) is increased to reduce the turning radius, and at the same time, the amount of deceleration of the traveling speed increases and the vehicle speed decreases. At the time of forward movement and backward movement, the movement of the turning input connecting portion (116) is reversed with respect to the rotation of the steering handle (19), and the steering handle (19) is rotated in both forward and backward movements. By adjusting the operation direction and the turning direction of the aircraft and rotating the round steering handle (19) to rotate, for example, a course correction and a direction change with a driving feeling similar to that of a four-wheeled vehicle such as a tractor or a rice transplanter. Cormorant.
[0038]
19 and 20 show the relationship between the turning angle of the steering handle (19) and the speed of the left and right traveling crawler (2) when the aircraft is turning left and right. The turning angle of the handle (19) is large. As the speed difference between the left and right traveling crawlers (2) increases, the body center speed, which is the average speed of the left and right traveling crawlers (2), is also reduced according to the traveling speed (high speed, standard, low speed) state. When the steering handle (19) in the straight traveling position is rotated about 15 degrees leftward (rightward), the linkage bolt (97) moves in the phase adjusting hole (149), and the speed is changed by the kneading spring (98). The input member (96) is maintained at the same position as the straight travel, and left by the steering output that causes the second hydraulic motor (27) to rotate forward (reverse) by the second hydraulic pump (26) of the steering member (28). Turn in the direction (right direction) and correct the course to match the curve of the uncut grain row. At this time, the deceleration amount of the traveling crawler (2) inside the turning and the acceleration amount of the traveling crawler (2) outside the turning become substantially equal, and the body center speed is kept at substantially the same speed as the straight traveling. Further, when the steering handle (19) is rotated by 15 degrees or more from the straight traveling position, the speed change input member (96) decelerates in both the left turn and the right turn against the kneading spring (98). 1 The traveling shift output of the hydraulic pump (23) and the motor (24) is decelerated, the left and right traveling crawlers (2) and (2) are rotated in the same direction to move forward (or reverse), and the left and right traveling crawlers (2) ( 2) The course is corrected so that the brake turn operation that turns to the left (right direction) is performed due to the difference in the traveling speed, and when it is removed from the uncut grain row, it is returned to the original row or moved to the next row. I do. Further, when the steering handle (19) is rotated about 135 degrees, the center speed of the aircraft is reduced to about one fourth of the straight traveling speed, the traveling crawler (2) inside the turning is driven in reverse, and the traveling crawler inside the turning is driven. A spin turn operation is performed in which the aircraft turns around (2), and the aircraft is turned 180 degrees by shifting the lateral width of the left and right traveling crawler (2) in the turning direction. Rotate the steering handle (19) in the range of degrees to turn left or right, and turn to the uncut grain culm (crop) row in the rotation range of the handle (19) left and right of 15 degrees around the straight position In addition to maintaining the traveling speed while moving straight, the alignment course that moves along the road is changed and the body is turned on the field headland by turning the handle (19) left and right from the straight position to the next work. The spin turn operation to move and automatically decelerated to about a quarter of the speed of straight running performed.
[0039]
Further, when the sub-shift is maintained at a standard speed (1.5 meters per second) and the steering handle (19) is rotated by 90 degrees, the main shift output is set to a high speed and two thirds by operating the main shift lever (68). Even if it is changed to 1/3, only the turning speed (aircraft center speed) is changed in a state where the turning radius of the airframe is kept substantially constant. Further, the first hydraulic pump (23) and the first hydraulic motor (24) are maintained in a straight traveling state within a set range of the linkage bolt (97) and the phase adjusting hole (149) with reference to the straight traveling position, and the crop row or Even if a steering operation is carried out along the dredger, etc., the running speed is prevented from changing unevenly, and the course can be corrected during farm work while maintaining the same running speed. It is possible to perform an appropriate steering operation by substantially matching the traveling operation of the vehicle. Further, the sub-shift lever (74) for switching the shift reference value of the main shift lever (73) changes the turning radius from a small diameter to a large diameter in proportion to the low speed, standard and high speed switching of the sub-shift operation, and the first hydraulic pump ( 23) and the reduction ratio between the motor (24) and the traveling crawler (2) and the reduction ratio between the second hydraulic pump (26) and the motor (27) and the traveling crawler (2), or necessary for the spin turn operation. While ensuring the driving force required for small radius turning, and operating the main speed change lever (73) at the same sub-shift operation position, the running speed during turning is changed with the turning radius kept substantially constant. Thus, the driving operation can be performed according to the skill level of the worker, and the mobility and the driving operability are improved.
