Abstract
The invention relates to an adjustment arrangement for a reel tine carrier ( ) supporting reaping tines ( ) for a cereal cutting device. The reaping tines ( ) are mounted on rotational tine carriers ( ). The adjustment is carried out around an adjustment axis ( ). The reel rotates around an axis of rotation ( ). To adjust the reaping tines ( ), a first control curve ( ) is kept stationary relative to the reel ( ). Each tine carrier ( ) is provided with a control lever ( ). The control lever is pivotably supported on the reel ( ). One end of the control lever is supported on the first control curve ( ). A pulling mechanism ( ) is provided for each control lever ( ). The pulling mechanism ( ) is attached to one end on the control lever ( ) and is guided around a control disc ( ) mounted on the tine carrier ( ). The other end of the pulling mechanism is fixed to a spring element ( ). The spring element is fixed on the holding star of the reel. As the reel ( ) is rotated, a pivoting adjustment of the reaping tines ( ) is carried out.
