A cutting assembly for an agricultural or forestry cutter, the cutting assembly comprising a lower member and an upper member, which together form at least one finger guard extending along a longitudinal axis, wherein a blade gap is formed between the lower member and the upper member, and a knife, which is guided in a reciprocating manner in the blade gap in a drive direction transverse to the longitudinal axis, and which has at least one cutting edge.

A method for analyzing the operating state of a cutting device for mowing crop, the cutting device having at least one mowing knife having cutting edges which interact with counter cutting edges of the cutting device, including: detecting of a signal representing the stroke position of the mowing knife; detecting a signal representing the knife force for driving the mowing knife as a function of the stroke position, and determining crop and/or cutting system properties on the basis of an evaluation of the signal representing the knife force as a function of the stroke position.

Method for analyzing the operating condition of a cutting device and cutting device

A cutting device for an agricultural harvesting machine including: a drive; a transmission arrangement having an input element drivingly connected to the drive and driven reciprocatingly by the drive along an input travel; and a knife having a plurality of cutting edges, the knife being drivingly connected to and driven by an output element of the transmission arrangement along an output travel longer than the input travel, is driven in a reciprocating motion in such a way that the cutting edges of the knife pass in each case at least two counter-cutting edges of the cutting device when moving in one direction along the entire output travel.

A knife blade for a cutting knife of an agricultural harvesting machine, with a blade top side and a blade bottom side, wherein a surface of the blade bottom side is composed of a planar surface arranged in a plane and a recess region extending above the plane. A height of the knife blade corresponds to a maximum distance between the blade top side and the planar surface in a direction normal to the plane, a material thickness of the knife blade corresponding to a distance between the blade top side and the blade bottom side, and a method of manufacturing a knife blade.

A bearing arrangement () for a tine carrier () on a reel () of a harvester has first and second bearing elements and an attachment mechanism. The first bearing element is in the form of a bearing bushing () with a bearing bore () to rotatably support a tine carrier () around a rotational axis D. The attachment mechanism () attaches the bearing bushing () onto a support element () of the reel (). The second bearing element is in the form of a bearing ring (). The bearing ring () is fixable onto the tine carrier (). The bearing ring () has a first ring portion () and a second ring portion (). The ring portions () are detachably connected to each other. The two bearing elements () are rotatably held and axially supported relative to each other.
