460022000 | COMBINED WITH DIVERSE ART DEVICE (E.G., HOISTING, DIGGING) | 6 |
20090291723 | Apparatus for analysing composition of crops in a crop elevator - An apparatus for analysing crop composition of crops moving in a grain elevator, the elevator including paddles moving up on an up-going side of the elevator and down on a down-going side of the elevator, the apparatus including a crop entrance for entry of crops from the up-going paddles to the analysing apparatus and a housing for containing a portion of crops to be analysed. The crop entrance is located in a plane parallel to the elevator's outer wall at the up-going side of the elevator. The apparatus further includes a sloped gutter portion for bringing crops from the crop entrance towards the housing. | 11-26-2009 |

20130316770 | KNIFE-SHARPENING SYSTEM FOR AN INFEED CUTTER OF AN AGRICULTURAL IMPELMENT - An agricultural implement having an infeed cutter includes a plurality of knives and at least one knife-sharpening assembly. The knives are mounted on shiftable knife beds that swing into and out of an operating position. The beds are laterally slidable in opposite directions to provide access to the knives. The knife-sharpening assembly includes a hood and a plurality of sharpening stones mounted on a shaft that moves along a path corresponding to the shape of the cutting edges of the knives, meaning the sharpening stones preferably follow the substantially arcuate contour of the uppermost edges of the knives during the course of sharpening. The hood is configured to contain any sparks produced by the interaction between the stones and knives. The knife beds and sharpening assemblies are configured such that sufficient ground clearance for travel of the agricultural vehicle is available during sharpening of the knives. | 11-28-2013 |
20140073379 | Forage Harvester With An Arrangement For Measuring The Harvested Material Throughput - A forage harvester has an engine which is drivingly connected to a chopper cylinder via first drive belt, and to a first end of a drive shaft of a discharge accelerator. A second end of the drive shaft of the discharge accelerator is drivingly connected to a kernel processor via a second drive belt, is arranged, in the direction of harvested material flow, between the chopper cylinder and the discharge accelerator. The discharge accelerator comprises support disks which extend radially, and paddles. The support disks are attached to a hollow shaft enclosing the drive shaft, and, a sensor is arranged between the drive shaft and the discharge accelerator for the determination of the force transmitted by the drive shaft to the discharge accelerator. | 03-13-2014 |
20140141848 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONVEYING AGRICULTURAL MATERIAL IN A HARVESTER - A system and method for conveying agricultural material in a harvester. One harvester includes a rotor which rotates to separate a plant into a first agricultural material and a second agricultural material. A grate is disposed vertically below the rotor and further separates the first and second agricultural materials from one another. A first conveyor receives the first and second agricultural material directly from a trailing end of the rotor and a trailing end of the grate. | 05-22-2014 |
20160037723 | CROP THRESHING METHOD - A crop threshing method involves threshing a grain crop, thereby causing the grain to separate into an edible grain portion and a non-grain portion of the crop. The threshing process uses a beater-type threshing drum, and continuously exposing the edible portion traveling through the threshing drum to a magnetic fields. Magnetic exposure of the edible portion during the threshing process is conducted by increasing the initial speed of crop mass fed into the threshing drum from 1.8 to 8.0 meters per second, a distance between threshing hammers during the threshing process is increased from 180 mm to 280 mm, and the number of threshing hammers is increased from six to twelve. Magnetic exposure of the edible portion during the threshing process is conducted by increasing the drum diameter from 380 mm to 800 mm with a constant developed concave length. | 02-11-2016 |
