摘要

The tractor drawn machine gathers vine shoots and brash, packing it and binding it in bundles which are ejected as it travels along. The machine uses a cyclic motorised revolving drum (11) divided into three compartments (13,14,15), its substructure being mounted on two transit wheels (3) and a stand wheel (4). A tow bar (5) provides for attachment to a tractor ith mechanical and hydraulic devices providing for the actuation of the various components. Groups of motor rollers (12) in a part circular arrangement are mounted on the substructure, acting with external pairs of jack (37) actuated idling rollers (36) converging on the drum axle to form round bundles. As the drum revolves a bundle is packed tied and ejected under gravity.
