摘要:
An agricultural combine including an unloading system wherein an unloading conduit assembly is, in an operational set-up, rotatable or swivelable through an arc of 360° to permit grain unloading into a grain truck located at any point around the combine, whether the combine is stationary or moving. For road travel or storage the unloading conduit assembly, or some portion of it, is pivoted into a set-up wherein the longitudinal conduit is retracted into nesting relationship against the side of the combine and below the top of the grain tank.

A side swing hitch for a rear end of an agricultural combine. The hitch includes a hitch support bracket having opposite end portions and an intermediate portion therebetween, a first of the end portions including at least one element for mounting to a rear chassis member of the combine with the other end portion suspended in a position rearward of the rear axle assembly connected to the chassis member. A draw bar is pivotally mounted to the second end portion of the hitch support bracket for pivotal movement between a rearwardly extending towing position generally perpendicular to the rear axle assembly and at least one generally transversely extending stored position at least generally perpendicular to the towing position and beside the rear axle assembly, the draw bar having an opposite end including a hitch element connectable to a tongue of a vehicle such as a trailer or cart to be towed by the combine.

An agricultural harvesting machine includes a tailings conveyor housing. The agricultural harvesting machine provides a cleaning device for cleaning threshed and separated grain. The tailings conveyor housing collects tailings from the cleaning device and propels the tailings with a first impeller against a first rethreshing member and radially to a second impeller. The second impeller propels the tailings against a second rethreshing member and radially to a conduit in the tailings conveyer housing, where the tailings are redirected back to the cleaning device and spread out over the cleaning device.

In one embodiment, a straw chopper apparatus of a combine harvester, the straw chopper apparatus comprising plural chopper rotors disposed proximally to a rearward end of the combine harvester, each of the chopper rotors comprising a shaft having an axis of rotation substantially parallel to the direction of travel, the shaft having a length dimension and a diameter dimension, the length dimension greater than the diameter dimension, the shaft comprising plural sets of blades that are pivotably coupled to the shaft.
摘要:
A crop residue chopper for an agricultural combine including a spaced array of stationary knives. A rotor of the chopper is rotatable about an axis therethrough and includes mounting elements in axially spaced relation, and a plurality of offset knives, each of the offset knives including a mounting end portion fixedly mountable on one of the mounting elements and a an opposite free end portion disposed so as to extend radially outwardly in axially offset relation to the mounting end portion when mounted on the mounting element. The offset knives are mountable in pairs on the mounting elements in a fine chopping configuration wherein the free end portions of the knives of each of the pairs are offset in a predetermined first relation to the mounting ends thereof, respectively, and define a space between the free end portions having a predetermined first axial extent for passage of the offset knives of each of the pairs on opposite sides of one of the stationary knives when the rotor is rotated for performing a fine cutting function. Alternatively, selected ones of the offset knives are mountable singly on the mounting elements in a predetermined coarse chopping configuration with the free end portions of the selected ones of the knives offset in an opposite direction from when in the fine chopping configuration so as to define axial spaces between adjacent ones of the free end portions having a predetermined second axial extent greater than the first axial extent for passage in proximity to at least one of the stationary knives when the rotor is rotated, for performing a coarse cutting function.
摘要:
A multiple finger flow guide for a crop residue spreader including an element disposed in a housing and rotatable in a predetermined direction about an axis for driving a flow of crop residue through a discharge opening or outlet of the housing located at a predetermined angular position around the axis. The flow guide includes at least two elongate fingers, the fingers having proximal ends located adjacent to an upstream end of the discharge opening and the fingers extending from the proximal ends generally circumferentially to an arcuate or circular path of the flow to distal ends located spaced outwardly from the housing and the discharge opening, adjacent ones of the fingers defining spaces therebetween such that a desired portion of the flow will pass through the spaces so as to be spread onto an area of an agricultural field adjacent to the spreader and the remaining portions of the flow will be guided along the fingers so as to be spread over portions of the field a desired distance away from the spreader, such that the crop residue will be distributed evenly over a desired portion of the swath of a combine on which the spreader is used.
摘要:
A crop residue spreader for an agricultural combine including a unique support element which is an elongate tube, including a center portion and a pair of legs extending outwardly in opposite directions from the center portion, each of the legs including an end portion opposite the center portion and an intermediate portion. The end portions include pivot elements coaxially aligned about a pivotal axis for pivotal connection to a rear end of the combine for movement between spreading and non-spreading positions. The intermediate portions include mounting elements for supporting rotatable crop accelerators in side-by-side relation, and the center portion includes at least one mount for mounting a pair of crop residue deflectors in cantilever relation to the tube and extending partially around the crop residue accelerators, respectively. The tube can also include mounts or supports for holding a shield in desired relation to the crop residue accelerators.
摘要:
A crop residue chopper and spreader for an agricultural combine. The chopper and spreader includes a disk mounted for rotation in a predetermined rotational direction about an axis oriented horizontally or at a small acute angle to horizontal, the disk including at least one radially outwardly extending impeller having a radial outermost periphery. The chopper and spreader includes a housing at least partially containing the disk and including an upwardly facing inlet opening located generally above the disk for receiving a flow of crop residue from a threshing mechanism of the combine, and a radially facing discharge opening located generally below the disk for discharging the flow of crop residue. The chopper and spreader additionally includes cutting elements mounted on the housing and on the radially outermost periphery of the at least one impeller cooperable for cutting the crop residue when passing through the housing from the inlet opening to the discharge opening.
