MATERIAL GUIDE FOR A STRAW HOOD OF AN AGRICULTURAL VEHICLE

摘要

An agricultural vehicle includes a chassis; a crop processing mechanism carried by the chassis and configured to separate crop material and discharge crop residue therefrom; and a residue handling system that receives separated crop material and discharged crop residue from the crop processing mechanism. The residue handling system includes at least one spreader device defining a spreader exit; a windrow exit; a straw door selectively positionable between a first position and a second position, the straw door directed toward the spreader exit in the first position and directed toward the windrow exit in the second position; and a flexible guide associated with the straw door and having a shape that deforms when the straw door switches between the first position and the second position.
