The invention discloses a holding
chain type bast
fiber crop harvester. The harvester comprises a
tractor, a header and a suspending frame, wherein the header comprises multiple sets of
cutting devices and a horizontal conveying device; each
cutting device comprises a first driven small chain wheel, a second driven small chain wheel, a driving small chain wheel, a first
hydraulic motor, a driven large chain wheel, a longitudinal conveying chain, a protective cover, a stalk shifting star wheel, a semicircle fixed blade, a movable cutter shaft, a hexagonal rotary movable blade and a base; the horizontal conveying device comprises a second
hydraulic motor, a driving shaft, a device mounting rack, driving chain wheels, horizontal conveying chains and driven chain wheels. After the movable cutter shafts cooperate with all
cutting assemblies to perform cutting, the longitudinal conveying chains, the stalk shifting star wheels and the horizontal conveying device cooperate to complete stalk cutting and conveying operation, and the harvester has the advantages of novel design, compact structure, high universality, work stability and high efficiency.
