Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress adverse influence on traveling stability and a sorting processing in a threshing part, etc., by setting a machine body height to be lower than an upper limit position in a non-reaping work state at the time of traveling on a butt or the like while appropriate reaping work is performed at a low machine body height in a reaping work state and making the swing of a machine body upper part side when a machine body is inclined by the recessed and projecting parts and soft state of a field surface or the like as small as possible. SOLUTION: In the non reaping work state, the target height to the ground of the machine body in the state of maintaining the left and right inclination angle to a horizontal reference surface of a traveling machine body detected in an inclination angle detection means 23 at a set inclination angle is changed and adjusted by a target height setting means 102 with the entire range from the upper limit to lower limit of the elevating and lowering operation range of the respective ground parts of a pair of left and right traveling devices as an adjustment object. The respective left and right ground parts are separately elevated and lowered in an elevating and lowering driving means 19 and the height to the ground of the traveling machine body is controlled to the target height to the ground. In the reaping work state, it is controlled to the target height to the ground set separately from the target height to the ground at the time of the non-reaping work state.

However, in the above-mentioned prior art, either the lower limit reference mode or the upper limit reference mode can be selected, and in the non-cutting operation state, the mode is switched to the upper limit reference mode to limit the ground height of the body to the upper limit. Since the height was maintained, when the traveling aircraft tilted left and right due to, for example, unevenness in a field scene or a soft state in the case of a wetland, the upper body side shaking increased, and as a result, the traveling stability of the aircraft decreased. At the same time, sorting processing etc. in the threshing section are not performed properly,
Alternatively, there is a problem that the ride comfort of the passenger becomes poor.
