PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve efficiency of grain-unloading operation while facilitating maintenance by allowing a grain-storing apparatus to be turned to the outside direction of a machine body.SOLUTION: In the combine harvester which is built by installing a threshing apparatus (18) in one side of right and left sides of a body frame (3) including a traveling apparatus (20), a grain storage apparatus (1) equipped with a conveying cylinder (6) for grain discharge in the other side of the right and left sides of the body frame (3), and a reaping device (21) in the front side of the body frame (3). The grain storage apparatus (1) is pivotally supported so as to be turnable around vertical shafts (5, 19), and the conveying cylinder (6) is pivotally supported so as to be freely raised, laid and turned around the shaft center in the front and rear direction, there are further provided a holding apparatus (1g) for holding the grain storage apparatus (1) at a harvesting operation position on the body frame (3), and a locking device (9) for fixing the conveying cylinder (6) in an erected posture at a housing position on the body frame (3).COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT【課題】穀粒貯留装置を機体外側方へ回動させてメンテナンスを容易に行なえるものでありながら、穀粒排出作業の効率を高める。【解決手段】走行装置(20)を備えた機体フレーム(3)の左右一側の部位に脱穀装置(18)を設け、機体フレーム(3)の左右他側の部位には穀粒排出用の搬送筒(6)を備えた穀粒貯留装置(1)を設け、機体フレーム(3)の前側に刈取装置(21)を設けたコンバインにおいて、穀粒貯留装置(1)を縦軸(5,19)回りに回動自在に軸支すると共に、搬送筒(6)を前後方向の軸心回りに起伏回動自在に軸支する。また、穀粒貯留装置(1)を機体フレーム(3)上の収穫作業位置に保持する保持装置(1g)と、搬送筒(6)を機体フレーム(3)上の格納位置に起立姿勢で固定するロック装置(9)を設ける。【選択図】 図2
