An attachment for connection to a harvester comprises a plurality of picking devices () arranged next to each other and in a distributed manner along the working width. Each picking device () has a picking gap (), below which are disposed at least two picking rotors () which can be driven to rotate in opposite directions, the picking rotors () being provided with flutes (), which project in a radial direction beyond the rotor casing () and the enveloping circles () of which mesh with each other. To propose a way of easily adapting the picking rotors to different harvesting conditions without having to replace them all, the invention proposes for one or more shear bars () which are releasably connected to the picking rotor () and/or to the flutes () to be inserted in the intermediate space () between adjacent flutes () of a picking rotor (), the shear bars filling portions of said intermediate space during a rotating movement of the picking rotors ().

The present invention relates to a device () for harvesting stalk-like stem crops, having a number of picking units () which are arranged alongside one another on the frame () of the device () and each have picking plates (), laterally delimiting a picking gap (), and picking rotors () located therebeneath, conveying units which are assigned to the respective picking units (), are configured as continuous conveyors () that are driven in circulation, are arranged on opposite sides above a picking gap () and are configured with drivers () fastened to the circulating elements, and a transverse conveying device () arranged downstream of the conveying units. In order to find an arrangement for the continuous conveyors which results in a reduced overall width without the intake of laid maize being substantially impaired, it is proposed that the axes of rotation () of front deflection wheels () of the continuous conveyors () be positioned obliquely at an angle () transversely to the working width of the device () and to the picking plane (), which is defined by the mutually facing front edges of the picking plates () assigned to a picking gap (), such that the axes of rotation (), considered to be lengthened, intersect above the picking plates () at a distance from the picking plane (), and the drivers () formed on the continuous conveyors () are for their part positioned upwardly at an angle () to the axis of rotation () of the deflection wheels ().

Device for harvesting stalk-like stem crops

A header of a combine harvester has a center part connected by an attachment frame to the combine feed channel. A first side part with first lateral frame and a second side part with second lateral frame are adjustable for changing their position relative to the center part. The first and second lateral frames are connected by a first ball joint and a second ball joint to the attachment frame, respectively so that the weight of the first and second lateral frames is supported by the first and second ball joints on the attachment frame. The first and second ball joints form first and second pivot axes. An end of the first lateral frame facing away from the center part is pivotable about the first pivot axis. An end of the second lateral frame facing away from the center part is pivotable about the second pivot axis.

Header with center part and side parts adjustable relative to the center part

A combine header for a harvesting machine is provided with a frame and a cutter bar connected to a leading end of the frame. A conveying device connected to the frame conveys stalk material cut by the cutter bar. A drive device drives the cutter bar and the conveying device. First support wheels are connected to the frame at lateral ends of the combine header and support the combine header on the ground. The support wheels arranged underneath the combine header.

Overload protection device for agricultural appliances, such as for example agricultural implements with a joint connecting the agricultural tool to the carrier frame, having two joint parts held together by spring load and mutually supporting, of which one is mounted on the agricultural tool and the other on the carrier frame. On both joint parts at least one upper support arrangement and at least one lower support arrangement are arranged as spaced from one another, with the lower support arrangement () having at least one pivot bolt () extending horizontally and transversely to the working direction and at least one joint retainer () supported on the pivot bolt () and having a V or U-shaped cross-section.
