AUGER-CONTROLLING DEVICE IN COMBINE HARVESTER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable the turning operation of a discharging pipe at a desired position manually. SOLUTION: A combine harvester 10 is provided with an auger-controlling device 24 for conveying grains stored in a grain tank 22 to a loading stage of a truck, etc. This auger-controlling device 24 has a supporting pipe 29 installed as standing from the bottom part of the grain tank 22, and a discharging pipe 26 supported as capable of freely making a turn and up and down movements, in which the discharging pipe 26 is held by an electromagnet brake 32 at a stopped state. At a steering operation part of the combine harvester 10, an operation lever 34 capable of automatically driving and controlling the discharging pipe 26 with an electric motor 30, etc., and at the grain discharging side of the discharging pipe 26, a brake-releasing switch 36 capable of releasing the braking action of the electromagnetic brake 32 are installed, and by performing an ON operation of the brake-releasing switch 36, the braked state by the electromagnetic brake 32 is released to make it possible that the turning operation of the discharging pipe 26 is manually performed.
