RESEARCH ON THE OPTIMAL DESIGN OF THE RETRACTABLE FINGER FROM A COMBINE HARVESTER'S AUGER

Journal Title: ISB-INMA TEH AGRICULTURAL AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERING - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 1

Abstract

The article presents a procedure for the design and dimensional optimization using finite elements analysis of a polymeric retractable finger and a comparison with a metallic one. The retractable fingers are parts of the auger from the combine harvester's header. The design and simulation of the mechanism were achieved in SolidWorks. The loads resulted during the simulation were used to perform stress analysis and to optimize the retractable finger's dimensions.
