The divider is supported on a member that forms part of the cutting platform by means of a link which is secured at one end to the member in a manner to allow the link to pivot relative to the member about a first axis and which is secured at its other end to the divider in a manner to allow the divider to pivot relative to the link about a second axis which is inclined relative to the first axis.

A method and apparatus for automatically controlling a header lift system of an agricultural harvesting machine, particularly a windrower, to put a header of the machine into a transport mode wherein the header is raised to an elevated transport position, under certain specific conditions. Such conditions can include, but are not limited to, the machine operating in a high-speed range, the header not operating, the speed of the machine being above a predetermined level, and the last inputted control command being a header raise command. When in the transport mode, the lift system can also be operated in a float mode. Further, the header lift system can be returned to a normal mode when certain criteria are present for doing so.

The extension includes a support member including a mounting end mountable to a corn header adjacent to a rear end thereof for pivotable movement about a generally upwardly to downwardly extending pivotal axis between at least one forwardly extending position spaced above the end hood, and a second or stored position at angle to the forwardly extending position or positions. The support member has a free end extending upwardly and outwardly from the mounting end to a terminal end portion, and supports a sheet along substantially the length thereof to serve as a barrier to the passage of corn between the support member and the end hood and to deflect ears that strike it into an adjacent crop gathering channel. When it is not desired or required to use the extension it can be quickly and easily pivoted to the stored position, out of the way.

For a row crop header, a row divider having a variable-height ear saver feature. The row divider comprises a point, a cover, and a partition. The point has a trailing edge vertically moveable relative to the cover. The partition fills a resultant gap between the point and the cover, forming a variable-height ear saver feature. A crankshaft functions to articulate the trailing edge relative to the cover, and to move the partition vertically with the trailing edge. A support functions to support the point at a midpoint. A guide constrains the partition within the gap.

A multiple row sugar cane harvester having automatic and independent control of multiple base cutters utilized to severe sugar cane stalks in adjacent rows. Position sensors sense the height of the base cutters relative to the chassis of the sugar cane harvester and feed the signals to a controller for adjusting the height to a preselected level. The base cutters are individually driven by hydraulic motors through individual hydraulic circuits and the operating pressure is sensed and fed to the controller for determining whether a choke condition exists. A load sensor is incorporated between the linkage and the sugar cane harvester chassis for determining whether the base cutters have ground contact to elevate the base cutters.

The invention relates to the technical field of harvesters in agricultural machinery, in particular to a rape windrower. The rape windrower mainly comprises a rack, dividers, a grain lifter, cutting devices, a conveying system, transmission devices and a suspension device and is characterized in that the windrower is hung at the rear to realize middle windrowing of the rapes. The rape windrower has the following beneficial effects: the rape windrower is suitable for transplanting and directly seeding the rapes and can realize effective cutting of the rape stems and effective conveying and windrowing after cutting; windrowing channels are not needed to be opened up manually in advance; a hydraulic device freely controls the stubble height; the rape windrower avoids blockage and has wide cutting range, high efficiency and low power consumption; by adopting the way of staged harvesting, the harvest time of the rapes is prolonged and the loss rates of the rapes are reduced; a practical machine tool is provided for mechanically harvesting the rapes; and the rape windrower can harvest soybeans, corn stalks, grass and the like through technical parameter adjustment.

A header for a harvesting machine. The header includes at least two row dividers spaced from one another in a transversal direction and at a predetermined distance, at least one roller, a driving for driving the roller comprising multiple projections, at least two base cutting discs, a driver for driving the at least two base cutting discs, one roller positioned behind the at least two base cutting discs to raise the cut plants, and at least one conveyor roller positioned above the said roller to raise plants, to transport the cut plants to the inside of a harvesting machine. The at least one roller includes multiple projections to collect and direct the plants downwards and towards the opening. The foregoing elements form an assembly mounted on a structure that may be connected to a harvesting machine

A modular assembly for a sugarcane harvester is disclosed. A sugarcane harvester may include a chassis with various discreet and laterally separated mounting locations. Crop divider support modules may be configured to separately and fixedly attach to the chassis at various of the mounting locations, in order to support respective crop dividers in a variety of discreet and laterally separated orientations.

The invention relates to a ramie combined harvester, which belongs to agricultural machinery, and mainly solves the harvest problem of ramie. The ramie combined harvester comprises a stander, a ramie supporting unit, a ramie supporting and cutting unit, a conveying unit, a stacking and laying unit and a traveling unit, wherein the ramie supporting unit, the ramie supporting and cutting unit, the conveying unit and the stacking and laying unit are fixedly connected with the stander to form a cutting table according to the pushing and supporting, cutting, conveying, stacking and laying procedures; and the traveling unit is connected with the cutting table to complete the traveling and cutting combined operation. The ramie combined harvester adopts a subsection harvest machinery proposal, completes the procedures of the supporting, the cutting, cutting for spreading and stacking for once, has light load, high efficiency and strong adaptability, and is widely suitable for cutting long-stalked plants such as ramie, jute, hemp, and the like.

A corn head divider lift assist linkage comprises two members and a spring pivotally coupled together, wherein one of the two members is pivotally coupled to a row crop divider and another of the two members is pivotally coupled to a bracket that is fixed at the rear of two adjacent row units.

The invention provides a header which comprises two or a plurality of nearside dividers, two or a plurality of holding-straight devices, two or a plurality of holding devices, two or a plurality of including discs, two cutters and a transmission device, wherein the nearside dividers are positioned at the front end of the header; the two including discs positioned on a same vertical shaft are arranged at the rear of the nearside dividers, the holding devices are arranged at the sides of the including discs, and the including discs and the holding devices are on the same horizontal surface; the two cutters are respectively positioned below the two including discs and the holding devices, and the two cutters are parallel to each other and are arranged vertical to the side of a combine harvester; and the two holding devices and the cutters are respectively connected with the transmission device.
