Take up arrangement with a position of the tine carriers dependent upon the direction of rotation
Abstract:
The crop take-up arrangement includes a take-up rotor having several tine carriers with tines fastened to it that can be moved along a circular track, supported, free to rotate, about their axes of rotation. A housing contains the take-up rotor with strippers between which elongated intervening spaces remain through which the radially outer regions of the tines extend outward over a part of the circular track of the tine carriers. A drive shaft can be driven in two directions of rotation to drive the tine carriers around the circular track. It is proposed that the tine carriers be supported in bearings so as to pivot about their longitudinal axes between two end positions and be able to move between the end position as a function of the direction of rotation of the drive shaft.
