PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a combine that can detect a change of a transport amount of reaped grain culm with good sensitivity, and thereby recognize the change of the amount of the grain culm of a reaping device with high accuracy.SOLUTION: A reaping device has an endless body rotationally driven in an endless state in order to convey the reaped grain culm, a clamping rod capable of being detached and inclined to the endless body, and a biasing member for biasing the clamping rod toward the endless body. The combine of the present invention has a control device and inclination detecting means for detecting the inclination to the endless body of the clamping rod. The control device is configured to recognize the amount of grain culm of the reaping device based on the inclination of the clamping rod detected by the inclination detecting means.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 10COPYRIGHT: (C)2017,JPO&INPIT【課題】刈取穀稈の搬送量の変化を感度良く検出して、刈取装置の穀稈量の変化を精度良く認識できるコンバインを提供する。【解決手段】刈取装置は、刈取穀稈を搬送すべく無端状に回転駆動される無端体と、無端体に対して接離可能且つ傾斜可能とされた挟扼杆と、前記挟扼杆を前記無端体に向けて付勢する付勢部材とを有している。本発明のコンバインは、制御装置と、前記挟扼杆の前記無端体に対する傾きを検出する傾斜検出手段とを有しており、前記制御装置は、前記傾斜検出手段によって検出される前記挟扼杆の傾きに基づき刈取装置の穀稈量を認識するように構成されている。【選択図】図10
