PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combine harvester facilitating assembly and maintenance while reducing the production cost by devising the ear-side structure of a conveying device for sending the reaped grain culms to a feed chain at the rear side.SOLUTION: The conveying device 2 present at the front side of a machine frame 59, and for sending the reaped grain culms to the feed chain 21 while transversely feeding the grain culms is formed into a two-division structure of a front conveying part 2a linearly and laterally tilted from the right or left one side to the rear part of the other right or left side at a mild slope, and a rear conveying part 2b in the vertical direction directed to the feed chain 21, and regulated so that a conveying lug Rb of the rear conveying part 2b may be moved so as to be extremely brought near to a case 2ac of the front conveying part 2a at the delivering part A between the front conveying part 2a and the rear conveying part 2b.COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT【課題】本発明では、刈り取った穀稈を後方のフィードチェンへ送る穂先側搬送装置の構成を工夫することで、製造コストを低減し、組み立て易く保守点検が容易なコンバインにすることを課題とする。【解決手段】機体フレーム59の前側にあって刈り取った穀稈を横送りしながらフィードチェン21へ送る搬送装置2を左右一側から左右他側後方へ緩やかな傾きで直線状に横傾斜させた前搬送部2aとフィードチェン21に向かう縦方向の後搬送部2bの二分割構成とし、この前搬送部2aと後搬送部2bの引継部Aにおいて後搬送部2bの搬送ラグRbが前搬送部2aのケース2acに極接近して移動すべくした。【選択図】図5
