Definitions
- the present invention relates to a combine harvester.
- a combine harvester such as that described in Patent Document 1 is known.
- the combine harvester described in Patent Document 1 includes an engine, a machine frame, a threshing device for threshing harvested stalks, and an exhaust pipe for discharging engine exhaust.
- An exhaust port that opens to the outside is formed at the downstream exhaust end of the exhaust pipe.
- the exhaust port is located at a height close to the driver's height, so exhaust air easily reaches the driver.
- the present invention is characterized in that it comprises an engine, a machine frame, a threshing device for threshing harvested stalks, and an exhaust pipe for discharging the exhaust gas from the engine, and an exhaust port that opens to the outside is formed at the downstream exhaust end of the exhaust pipe, and the exhaust port is located below the upper end of the threshing device and above the lower end of the machine frame.
- the exhaust port is located lower than the upper end of the threshing device, so the height of the exhaust port is away from the height of the operator. This makes it difficult for the exhaust to reach the operator. Also, because the exhaust port is located higher than the lower end of the machine frame, soil from the ground is less likely to adhere to the exhaust port.
- the exhaust port opens downward.
- the exhaust port does not open to the rear, so dirt from the ground is less likely to get into the exhaust port. Also, because the exhaust is discharged from the exhaust port toward the ground, the exhaust is less likely to reach the rear of the aircraft.
- the machine is provided with a grain storage section that is arranged adjacent to the threshing device in the left-right direction of the machine body and that stores grains from the threshing device, and that the exhaust pipe is passed between the threshing device and the grain storage section and overlaps with the threshing device and the grain storage section in a side view.
- This characteristic configuration allows the exhaust pipe to be placed in the space between the threshing device and the grain storage section.
- the exhaust pipe overlaps with the grain storage section in a plan view.
- This characteristic configuration allows the exhaust pipe to be placed in the space below the grain storage tank.
- a pair of left and right crawler running devices are provided, and the exhaust port opens toward one of the pair of left and right crawler running devices when viewed in the front-rear direction of the vehicle body.
- the exhaust port opens toward the crawler travel device on the grain storage section side of the pair of left and right crawler travel devices when viewed from the front-rear direction of the machine body.
- the machine frame is configured in a frame shape, and an extension line of the center of the exhaust port passes through the interior of the machine frame and also passes behind one of the crawler traveling devices.
- the exhaust gas discharged from the exhaust port passes through the interior of the machine frame and flows behind one of the crawler running devices. This allows the exhaust gas to flow smoothly from the exhaust port toward the tracks created by one of the crawler running devices.
- a fuel tank is provided behind the threshing device, and the exhaust port opens on the opposite side of the fuel tank in the left-right direction of the machine body.
- the grain storage section is constituted by a grain storage tank
- the threshing device has a grain lifting device provided on the side of the threshing device facing the grain storage tank and transporting the first grains upward toward the grain storage tank
- the exhaust pipe is passed between the grain storage tank and the grain lifting device.
- This characteristic configuration allows the exhaust pipe to be placed in the space between the grain storage tank and the grain lifting device.
- the exhaust port is located rearward of the grain lifting device.
- the exhaust air is discharged from the exhaust port at a position behind and away from the grain lifting device. This makes it difficult for the exhaust air to reach the grain lifting device.
- a grain discharge device is provided that is erected behind the grain storage tank and discharges the grains in the grain storage tank, and it is preferable that the exhaust port is located forward of the portion of the grain discharge device that is erected behind the grain storage tank.
- the downstream end of the exhaust pipe does not protrude further rearward than the portion of the grain discharge device that is erected behind the grain storage tank. This allows the length of the exhaust pipe to be shortened, and the downstream end of the exhaust pipe is less likely to get in the way at the rear of the aircraft.
- the exhaust port is located forward of the rear wall of the grain storage tank.
- the downstream end of the exhaust pipe does not protrude further rearward than the rear wall of the grain storage tank. This allows the length of the exhaust pipe to be shorter, and the downstream end of the exhaust pipe is less likely to get in the way at the rear of the aircraft.
- the grain storage section is constituted by a grain storage tank, a lower narrowing section that narrows downward when viewed in the fore-aft direction of the machine body is formed at the lower part of the grain storage tank, and the exhaust downstream end of the exhaust pipe is inclined along the lower narrowing section when viewed in the fore-aft direction of the machine body.
- the exhaust flows through the downstream end of the exhaust pipe in a direction that inclines along the narrowing portion at the bottom when viewed from the front-to-rear direction of the aircraft. This allows the exhaust to flow smoothly from the exhaust port toward the ground on the outside side of the aircraft.
- downstream end of the exhaust pipe is inclined downward toward the rear when viewed from the side.
- the exhaust flows through the downstream end of the exhaust pipe in a direction that slopes downward toward the rear when viewed from the side. This allows the exhaust to flow smoothly from the exhaust port toward the ground behind the aircraft.
