    Rice Combine Harvester

    MARCH 16, 2021

    Engr. JAMAICA S. EMPUESTO


    Engineer II
    Harvesting practices
    1.1 Manual harvesting

    o Manual operation sometimes


    using tools.
    o Labor requirement: 48 person
    days / ha.
    o Accomplished in several
    days.
    2. Mechanization in harvesting
    2.1 Reaper and thresher

    o Capacity = 2-4 ha/day


    o Requires additional labor
    for gathering and piling.
    o Threshing capacity = 40
    cav per hour
    o Requires 3 to 4 person to
    operate
    2. Mechanization in harvesting
    2.2 Striper

    o Capacity = 0.7 ha/day.


    o strips and collects
    grains only.
    o Does not work well
    with long straw and
    lodged fields
    2. Mechanization in harvesting

    2.3 Japanese Combine harvester

    o Cutting, hauling,
    threshing, cleaning in
    one combined
    operation.
    o Capacity: > 0.5 ha/h.
    o Labor requirement: 2-3
    Operator
    o Hold-on type threshing
    section
    2. Mechanization in harvesting

    2.4 European Combine harvester

    o Cutting, hauling,
    threshing, cleaning in
    one combined
    operation.
    o Capacity: > 1 ha/h.
    o Labor requirement:
    1-2 Operators
    o Throw-in type
    thresher
    3. Maintenance
    3.1 Typical Japanese combine
    3. Maintenance
    3.2 Typical grain flow in a combine
    harvester
    3. Maintenance
    3.3 Setting concave clearance

    o For most threshing clearances


    between peg-teeth and
    concave should be about
    25mm.
    o Smaller clearance increases
    grain damage and might lead
    to clogging of straw.
    o Larger concave clearances
    reduce threshing efficiency.
    3. Maintenance
    3.4 Setting threshing speed
    RPM Tip speed (m/s) for drum diameters of o Drum tip speed should be
    about 12-16 m/sec (see Table
    30 cm 40 cm 50 cm
    400 6.3 8.4 10.42
    for correct RPM).
    450 7.07 9.4 11.78 o Higher speeds result in higher
    500 7.85 10.5 13.09 grain damage and de-hulled
    550 8.64 11.5 14.4
    grains.
    600 9.42 12.6 15.7
    650 10.21 13.6 17.02
    o Lower speeds increase the
    700 11 14.7 18.3 amount of non-threshed grain
    750 11.8 15.7 19.64 and result in grain loss. Lower
    800 12.6 16.8 21 speeds also decrease the
    850 13.4 17.8 22.25
    throughput.
    900 14.14 18.85 23.6
    3. Maintenance
    3.5 Maintenance

    o Thorough cleaning and


    oiling of the moving parts
    after each use.
    o Regular check-up of
    moving parts, especially
    the cutting bars.
    3. Maintenance
    3.6 Specifications
    3. Maintenance
    3.7 Optimum requirement
    o The reel shall be adjustable horizontally and vertically to suit
    different crop conditions such as height and density. The
    recommended reel speed should be 25 % to 50 % faster than
    the ground speed.
    o Dividers shall be able to separate the standing grain crop
    along the side of the machine and shall be able to assist in
    picking up partially lodged or entangled crop, gathering and
    guiding them to the cutting unit.
    o The recommended peripheral speed of the threshing drum is
    20 m/s to 30 m/s.
    o Cleaning unit should consist of grain pan, chaffer with
    adjustable openings, tailing auger, shoe sieve with adjustable
    position and inclination, and fan speed should be adjustable.
    4. Occupational Safety and Health
    Standards
    4.1 The workplace

    o Working around
    machinery is one of the
    most dangerous
    workplace.
    o Loss of arm and limb is
    highly possible.
    o Rice combine shall be
    fitted with slow-moving
    vehicle (SMV) emblem
    4. Occupational Safety and Health Standards

    4.2 Standards
    o PNS:PAES 101 : 2000
    o PNS:PAES 224 : 2005
