SYNOPSIS
The Small rice combine harvester is mainly used for harvesting rice grain and
wheat grain. It is special suit for hills and mountains or areas where general combined
harvesters cannot enter in, very convenience for the farming. the name derives from its
winnowing into a single process. Among the crops harvested with a combine are wheat,
oats, rye, barley, corn (maize), soybeans and flax (linseed). The waste straw left behind
on the field is the remaining dried stems and leaves of the crop with limited nutrients
which is either chopped and spread on the field or baled for feed and bedding for
livestock. Harvesters are one of the most economically important labour saving
INTRODUCTION
The power of combine harvester is usually 9-107 kW, so the machine model
should be matched with the field area. If the field is flat and vast, the large combine type
is good choice, on the contrary, a small one is better. According to feeding way, rice
combine harvester can be divided into half-feeding combine harvester and whole-feeding
combine harvester. The nature difference is in different handling way of rice straw. For
half-feeding rice harvester, only the rice ears are involved in the threshing device, the
filed stubble is low to 6-10 cm. While this type of combine harvester is of complicated
threshing and conveying design, so it is expensive and subject to fault. The whole-feeding
combine harvester involves both rice ears and straw into threshing device, after the straw
are crushed, they will be discharged in the land field. Whole feeding paddy harvesting
equipment is of relatively low price and good performance. There are mainly two types of
forward device for rice harvester, wheel type and rubber belt type. The wheel type is
flexible and energy-saving while as the wheel has small contacting area with land, so it
makes much pressure and do damage to soil. So you can choose the wheel type harvester
when the land is small and of sandy soil. For rubber belt type harvester, it puts low
pressure to land field and suitable for large wet paddy field with clayed soil. Combine
harvesting machinery integrates cutting, threshing and cleaning process with high
automatic degree. While for some restricted reasons, some areas are habituated to reaping
paddy first for dying and then thresh independently. For this way, we recommend rice
reaper.
WORKING PRINCIPLE
The above mentioned prats are used for various purposes in this model to operate
it.a handle provided in the model is used actuate the whole model.a fan is attached with
the handle with the help of gear arrangemnet and a belt arrangement as shown in the
figure.in other end of the handle a gear is attached.another gear is engaged with that gear
which leads to to the belt drive. a pulley is attached to the rear side of the fan.this pulley
is connected with the drive by means of belt as shown in the diagram.when the handle is
rotated the gear arrangment is actuated and the belt arrangement also starts to rotate.this
process leads to the rotation of the fan.another bar is attached to the handle which leads to
the cam arrangement.this cam arrangement is used to for the to and fro motion.a slider
with separator arrangement is used to separate the seeds.this slider is fixed in front of the
cam.when the handle is rotated the cam moves front and back.when the cam moves front
it hits the slider which leads to forward motion of the slider.when the cam moves back the
slider comes back to its old position.due to this motion the slider moves front and
back.when this operation is continiued, the seeds in the slider will be separated from the
shells. The dust from the seeds can be cleaned by the fan we used in this project.the speed
of the slider movement and the fan depends upon the speed of the rotation of the
handle.the speed of the fan is increased by the gear arrangement from the handle.
APPLICATION
In rise industries to separate seeds.
ADVANTAGES
Quick process
Can be operated easily
Low cost
Saves time
Less man power is enough
DISADVANTAGE
Seeds should be collected manually.
