摘要:
A plain mower includes a plurality of rotary cutters for cutting a crop and a swathing unit for forming the cut crop material into a swath. The swathing unit includes an auger that rotates about an axis to transport crop material axially through the swathing unit. The swathing unit can be configured in a first configuration in which the crop material is ejected axially from the auger, and can be reconfigured in a second configuration in which the crop material is ejected radially from the auger.

A crop header has a cutter bar with generally horizontal flail disks driven about generally spaced upright axes. At least two of the disks are mounted outwardly of a discharge opening and the outermost disk carries an impeller and at least one additional impeller is mounted inwardly and rearwardly of the outer impeller to carry the crop inwardly. The impellers are formed of angularly spaced bars which are inclined inwardly to a center waist to form an “hour glass” shaped impeller. A transfer roller transfers the crop upwardly and rearwardly from the disks to the nip of a pair of conditioner rolls and is at least as large as the bottom roll and carries high ribs forwardly inclined for an aggressive action on the crop with its axis above the cuffing plane and its uppermost edge of the ribs at or above the axis of the bottom roll.

A rotary platform is provided for the harvest of specialty crops such as grass seed. In particular the conditioning rolls are removed from the header to reduce seed shatter and converging elements are added inside the conditioner opening on both sides and to the rear of the cutterbar to feed the crop around the conditioner opening corner and to the rear of the platform. Additional converging elements are provided behind the first converging elements at a angle less then 90 DEG. to the ground so as to form the top of the windrow so that there is minimal seed loss. The converging elements may or may not be powered and the angle of the second converging element can be adjustable. The rotary knives perform the cutting function more efficiently than a sickle cutterbar, and the converging elements move the crop toward the center to form a windrow with less disturbance.

The apparatus is a crop harvesting machine with a header that discharges the crop toward the rear of the machine at the edge of the area harvested. A transverse auger conveyor moves the cut crop to one side of the machine where rotating paddles attached to the auger conveyor center tube push the cut crop out toward the rear through a discharge opening that defines the windrow being formed.

Mowing device provided with a frame (1) and at least two cuttig elements (2-5) comprising collars (7) supporting cutters and rotatable about upwardly extending axes of rotation, which cutting elements (2-5) can be rotated in opposite directions such that during operation the facing sides of the cutting elements move in a direction opposite to the intended direction of displacement (A) of the mowing device, whilst near the rearmost part of an outermost cutting element, (2,5) there has been provided a freely rotatable swath wheel (13) for guiding the cut crop onto a window, said swath wheel (13) being arranged so that seen from above said swath wheel (13, 15) overlap at least partly said collar, whereby near the rearmost side of said outermost cutting element (2, 5) there have been provided two swath wheels (13, 15) overlapping each other when seen in the intended direction of movement of the device whereby the arrangement is so that axis of rotation (14) of the foremost swath wheel (13) includes a smaller angle with the horizontal than does the axis of rotation (17) of the hindmost swath wheel (15) located behind said foremost swath wheel.

A swath roller apparatus is adapted to be attached to a swather, where the swather is operative to cut standing crop plants and lay cut plants in a swath as the swather moves along the ground in an operating travel direction. A drum is rotatably attached to an axle that is adapted to be movably attached to a rear portion of the swather such that the axle is oriented substantially horizontally and perpendicular to the operating travel direction, and such that the drum moves up and down and rolls along a top of the swath exerting a downward anchoring force on the swath. A bias element is operative to exert a bias force on the axle, and a bias force control is operative to vary the bias force to vary the anchoring force.
摘要:
A mower has a plurality of rotary cutters for cutting a crop and a swathing unit for forming a cut crop into a swath. In some embodiments, the swathing unit includes an auger and a housing that extends around at least part of the auger and provides a swathing aperture through which cut crop material is ejected to form a swath. In some embodiments, the housing includes at least one guide plate that can be adjusted to adjust the width W of the swathing aperture.
