The paper presents substantiation of the rational use of combine harvesters’nominal throughput when threshing grain crops with the yield ranging from 0.8 to 5.0 t/ha and over. The main factors that determine nominal throughput of combine harvesters and their operational indicators are identified. The structure andcontents of thetechnological passport of combine harvesters are substantiated, and the algorithm of effective determination of their key operational indicators, based on the passport, are developed. These indicators depend on harvesting technology, grain crop yield, the share of non-grain part in the threshed grain bulk, the coverage of swath headers and direct-cut headers, and the operating speed of combine harvesters. The definition of the term “technological passport of the combine harvester” is given. Maximum and minimum allowable grain crop yield is established for the rational load of combine harvesters threshing at the standard operating speed of7.5 km/hrecommended by the Ministry of Agriculture of theRussian Federation. The existing methods make it possible to determine the operational efficiency of high-performance machinery by operational costs. However, they do not take into account the shortage of human resources when determining production cost of the threshed grain. As a result of the research conducted, the algorithm and techniques of determination of actual grain cost when harvesting grain crops by direct combining and swath harvesting methods are developed taking into account the need in combines of an i-class and combine operators. Production cost of grain threshed on the area of1000 hectarescalculated by the techniques developed, allows to define the minimum estimated and actual grain cost for an i-class combine harvester by direct combining and swath harvesting methods.

При работе зерноуборочных комбайнов около половины мощности двигателя расходуют на извлечение зерна из колосьев зерновых культур. Большие затраты энергии на извлечение зерна из колосьев обусловлены необходимостью протаскивания соломы через молотильное устройство, малым рабочим объёмом между барабаном или ротором и декой, а также извлечением зерна из колосьев зерновых культур преимущественно ударом. При ударе происходит также травмирование зерна. Поэтому задача состояла в разработке зерноуборочного комбайна, извлекающего зёрна из колосьев зерновых культур вытиранием. Для создания теории извлечения зёрен вытиранием необходимо смоделировать процесс. В качестве образца для моделирования принята верхняя часть тритикале «Торнадо» с колосом. Для моделирования принято допущение, что колос упал на деку, после чего был зажат между рабочей ветвью транспортёра и декой строго перпендикулярно направлению движения ветви транспортёра. Лента транспортёра движется равномерно, а дека неподвижна. Рассчитано количество оборотов верхней части растения на деке, скорость верхней части растения в момент попадания в промежуток между лентой верхнего транспортёра и декой, угловая скорость верхних частей растений после ускорения и другие кинематические параметры. В результате определена необходимая угловая скорость вала привода верхнего транспортёра. During the operation of combine harvesters, about half of the engine power is spent on extracting grain from ears of grain crops. The high energy consumption for extracting grain from the ears is due to the need to drag straw through the threshing device, the small working volume between the drum or rotor and the deck, as well as the extraction of grain from the ears of grain crops mainly by shock. The grain is also injured upon impact. Therefore, the task was to develop a combine harvester that extracts grains from the ears of grain crops by wiping. To create the theory of extraction of grains by wiping, you need to simulate the process. As a sample for modeling, the upper part of the Tornado triticale with an ear was adopted. For modeling, it is assumed that the ear fell on the deck, after which it was clamped between the working branch of the conveyor and the deck strictly perpendicular to the direction of movement of the conveyor branch. The conveyor belt moves uniformly, and the deck is stationary. The number of revolutions of the upper part of the plant on the deck, the speed of the upper part of the plant at the time of getting into the gap between the belt of the upper conveyor and the deck, the angular speed of the upper parts of the plants after acceleration and other kinematic parameters are calculated. As a result, the required angular rate of the drive of the upper conveyor was determined.

HighlightsThe relationship of vibration and header loss was studied by multi-point vibration measurement and loss collection test.There was an approximately linear positive correlation between total header vibration and total rapeseed header loss.The header frame was analyzed and optimized through modal simulation and testing.The total rapeseed header loss of the improved header was reduced by 33.2% to 46.9%.Abstract. In view of the current large rapeseed header losses of rape combine harvesters, the effects of the header on rapeseed header loss were studied from the perspective of vibration. First, the vibrations at various measuring points on the header during rape harvest were studied using a data acquisition and analysis system while performing collection tests of rapeseed header loss with the sample slot method. The relationships between total header vibration and total rapeseed header loss and between vertical cutter vibration and rapeseed vertical cutter loss were shown to have a positive correlation, and they all increased with the increase in engine speed. Vertical cutter loss accounted for 31.2% to 42.4% of the total rapeseed header loss. Modal analysis and optimization of the header frame were then performed by simulation and test. The natural frequencies of the first-order and second-order modes of the optimized header were increased, and the possibility of resonance with other working parts was eliminated. Finally, the improved header was tested during rape harvest. The results showed that the total vibration of the improved header was reduced by 19.9% to 43.9%, and the total rapeseed header loss was reduced by 33.2% to 46.9%. The vertical cutter vibration was reduced by 30.5% to 49.8%, and the rapeseed vertical cutter loss was reduced by 20.8% to 34.7%. In addition, the vibration and rapeseed loss of the improved header had relatively slow rates of increase with the increase in engine speed. The method of reducing rapeseed loss by reducing the header vibration achieved an obvious and positive effect. Keywords: Frame optimization, Modal analysis, Rape combine harvester, Rapeseed header loss, Vibration.

With the advancement of agricultural mechanization, the safety of agricultural vehicles has aroused extensive concern. However, conventional methods evaluate the performance of the combine harvesters in a laborious and inaccurate filed-test way. It is still a challenge to evaluate their performance in a theoretical derivation-based simulation way. Here, we accurately derive the braking model of the combine harvester, which provides a guidance for further braking simulation. Firstly, a four-wheel braking system was designed and theoretically checked. Secondly, the virtual prototype of the chassis braking system was established in ADAMS, in consideration of the complicated contact characteristics between the tire and the road and between the friction pad and the brake disk. Finally, simulation experiments of braking efficiency and directional stability were carried out under different braking conditions. By this means, we find a novel effective yet simple way to optimize the braking efficiency as well as the sufficient braking stability of combine harvesters. The results show that braking efficiency would be improved with stronger braking force, lower initial braking velocity, and lighter weight of the combine harvester. Compared with straight-line braking, steering braking shows lower braking efficiency and less inclination of rear wheel bounce under the same braking conditions. As for braking directional stability, the lateral slippage would be increased with the locking of rear wheels, higher driving speed, or lower road adhesion coefficient. In addition, the simulation results are in agreement with the theoretical results, proving the validity of the virtual prototype simulation. Overall, other than traditional filed-test methods, our method provides an effective yet simple way for designing and evaluating the chassis braking system of combine harvesters.

This study discusses practical collection methods of cereal harvesting costs in different agricultural holdings in order to effectively manage combine harvester fleets, make economically reasoned decisions on the exploitation of combine harvesters, reduce harvesting costs and consequently the cost price of cereals. For this purpose, the author used work results of combine harvesters monitored by three randomly selected agricultural holdings, collected practical information on harvesting, analysed this information and provided assessments on the effectiveness of their combine harvester fleet. Evidently, not all combine harvester fleets and combines operate with the same efficiency, as their harvesting costs are different.

The article considers the issue that further improvement of the grain combine design with the classical threshing-separating device is possible due to the development of its technological scheme based on the principle of modular construction and stationary process of threshing grain mass. To achieve this goal, the problems were solved, by which laws were revealed and a mathematical description of the technological process of the combine harvester was given, as well as patterns characterizing the effect of straw on the process of grain mass threshing were revealed. In the course of research and evaluation of the effectiveness of the combine harvester’s usage the basic laws characterizing the technological process of combine harvester with the classical threshing-separating device are established. The change of the working speed of the combine depends on the technological properties of grain crops. It is revealed that the coefficient of solomitol grain mass δс is possible to reduce during combining grain crops through the application of high-cut stems. It was found that with the increase in the height of the cut of the stems (wheat) from 0.10 to 0.20 m, the coefficient of straw content of the grain mass decreases from 0.726 to 0.578. The additional material of experimental studies to determine the coefficient of straw content of the grain mass δc depending on the diameter and length of the pinned part of the stem is presented. When harvesting grain crops by the method of combing, a grain-bearing mass is formed, which is characterized by a random ratio of the fractions of the straw of the stalk of the annular part. The chaotic structure of plant parts temosolomida mass poses new challenges to supply it in the threshing-machine combine harvester with a classic threshingseparating device.

The article proposes system research of the spiked cereals harvesting process by a combine stripping, when the stripping header and the grain heap clearing are performed by one harvesting unit based on a self-propelled all-wheel drive combine harvester with a modernized design and technological scheme, in contrast to their aggregation by conventional batch-produced harvesters, which do not provide the harvesting quality according to the agrotechnical requirements. The commonly used aggregation of high-performance stripper headers by series combine harvesters, does not give an effect from the technology of combine stripping due to such violations of agrotechnical requirements as grain crushing for up to 1,9 %, its direct losses off the combine for up to 1,5 %, high kernel micro-damage, etc. With the use of a system approach, the design and technological aspects of spiked cereal combine stripping have been proposed, the use of which will eliminate the disadvantages of the used combine stripping while maintaining the high achievements of this technology in increasing labor productivity by 1,4 ... 2,0 times and saving diesel fuel for up to 45 %. In the principles of improving the technology by combine stripping, proposed by the authors, the requirements for its subsystems are given, indicating the main parameters of the stripping header and the combine harvester that aggregates it for clearing an unwinnowed grain heap. The proposed approach will enable to accelerate the spiked cereal stripping technology implementation with a high increase in the harvesting unit performance by 1,4 ... 2,0 times and with a fuel economy for up to 45 %.
