Header with drivable crop conveying elements

摘要

A header is formed with a middle section disposed on a main frame and at least two side sections disposed adjacent to the middle section on the main frame (2). A finger bar extends across the width of the header. At least one conveyor device (5) is disposed behind the finger bar and designed on the respective side sections as an endless conveyor belt. The belt is disposed adjacent to the middle section in order to transport crop cut by the finger bar laterally in the direction of the middle section (3). Drivable conveying elements are disposed on the middle section adjacent to the finger bar and the respective side section. These conveying elements receive and redirect crop discharged onto the middle section by the respective conveyor belts of the side sections.

1. A header, comprising:
a driveable feed roller; a middle section, comprising a rigid floor plate that has a contoured top side formed to include a wedge-shaped projection, the middle section disposed on a main frame, and two side sections disposed adjacent to the middle section on the main frame, a finger bar extending across a width of the header; and at least one conveyor device disposed behind the finger bar and arranged on each of the two side sections as at least one continuous conveyor belt adjacent to the middle section in order to transport crop cut by the finger bar laterally in the direction of the middle section, wherein the middle section includes a pair of drivable, circular, disk-shaped conveying elements disposed on a top side of the floor plate adjacent to the finger bar and the respective side section to receive and redirect crop discharged onto the middle section by the respective conveyor belts of the side sections to the driveable feed roller, and wherein each of the pair of the circular, disk-shaped conveying elements are mounted on a rotational axis on the floor plate and rotate oppositely relative to one another in a direction of the driveable feed roller.
