Reverse rotation control device for gap bridge of harvester and harvester

The invention discloses a reverse rotation control device for a gap bridge of a harvester and the harvester. According to the reverse rotation control device of the gap bridge of the harvester, the gap bridge of the harvester is provided with a rotating part for conveying crops, and the reverse rotation control device comprises a power mechanism used for providing power, a reverse rotation assembly arranged on the gap bridge, a control switch and an operating part, wherein the reverse rotation assembly has a first state in which the power mechanism is stopped from transmitting power to the rotating part and a second state in which the power mechanism drives the rotating part to rotate reversely; the control switch is used for controlling the power mechanism to start; and the operating part acts when receiving applied force, triggers the control switch to start the power mechanism, and switches the reverse rotation assembly from the first state to the second state. According to the reverse rotation control dev
