PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To appropriately detect height of a reaping apparatus from the ground, while inhibiting damage of a height detector.SOLUTION: The height detector of the reaping apparatus includes: a unit body (110) supported by a bracket (101) of a grass-dividing body (51) so as to vertically rotate about a first rotary shaft (107) in the horizontal direction a grounding body (112) fitted to the unit body (110) so as to vertically rotate about a second rotary shaft (125) in the horizontal direction that is disposed at a rear-side part with respect to the first rotary shaft (107) and detecting means (111) for detecting a vertical rotation position of the unit body (110) about the first rotary shaft (107). The grounding body (112) is formed into a dogleg shape in side view such that a central part (123a) in the vertical direction is located forward the vertical both ends. A lower surface (110a) of a case body (113) provided in the unit body (110) includes a chevron-shaped recess (117) in side view, formed by bending a longitudinal central part upward.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 17COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】高さ検出装置の破損を抑制して、刈取装置の地面からの高さを適切に検出する。【解決手段】分草体(51)側のブラケット(101)に対して左右方向の第1回転軸(107)回りに上下回転自在に支持したユニット本体(110)と、ユニット本体(110)における第1回転軸(107)よりも後側の部位に配置された左右方向の第2回転軸(125)回りに上下回転自在に取り付けた接地体(112)と、ユニット本体(110)の第1回転軸(107)回りの上下回転位置を検出する検出手段(111)を備え、接地体(112)は、その上下方向での中央部(123a)が上下両端部よりも前方に位置するように側面視でく字状に形成し、ユニット本体(110)に備えたケース体(113)の下面(110a)には、その前後方向中央部を上向きに屈曲させて側面視でへ字状の凹み(117)を形成する。【選択図】図17
