PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combine-harvester which can increase the number of reaping rows and can narrow a width thereof in a non-working time without troublesome operations.SOLUTION: In a combine-harvester, a reaping unit 2 comprises: a plurality of raising devices 11 which are corresponding to the number of reaping rows a cutting device 12 which cuts the root sides of the standing grain culms and a conveyance device 13 which conveys reaped grain culms to a rear part of a machine frame. The raising device 11 comprises: a raising action path in which a raising claw moves while being protruded and a no-acting return path in which the raising claw moves while being retired. In the reaping unit 2, the raising device 11, the cutting device 12, and the conveyance device 13 are configured foldable around a shaft core X arranged at a boundary between the neighboring raising devices of the raising devices 11 in which the no-acting return paths thereof are adjacent to each other.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】刈取条数を多くしながらも、煩わしい手間のかかる作業を要することなく、非作業時に横幅を狭くすることが可能なコンバインが望まれていた。【解決手段】刈取部2は、刈取条数に対応した複数の引起し装置11と、植立穀稈の株元を切断する切断装置12と、刈取穀稈を機体後方に向けて搬送する搬送装置13とを備え、各引起し装置11は、引起爪が突出する状態で移動する引起し作用経路と、引起爪が引退した状態で移動する非作用戻し経路とを備え、刈取部2は、複数の引起し装置11のうち、非作用戻し経路同士が近接する状態で隣り合う引起し装置同士の境界に設けた軸芯Xまわりで、引起し装置11、切断装置12、及び、搬送装置13が折り畳み可能に構成されている。【選択図】図5
