HARVESTER COMPRISING AN ADDITIONAL DRUM CONVEYOR FOR CONVEYING STRAW AND A SINGLE FLAP FOR CHANGING BETWEEN SWATH DEPOSIT AND SHREDDING OPERATION

摘要

The invention relates to a harvester (10) comprising a harvested goods processing device (26) having an outlet (62) for straw, a rotatable ejector drum (64) associated with the outlet (62), and a straw shredder (60). The ejector drum (64) is followed by a drum conveyor (68) working in an overshot manner. Only one pivotal flap (80) is arranged downstream of the drum conveyor (68) and can be moved between a shredding position, in which the straw is deflected downward in the straw shredder (60), and a swath deposit position, in which the straw is transported towards the back to a slide (88) arranged at the back of the straw shredder (60). The flap (80) can be pivoted at the front end adjacent to the drum conveyor (68) above the drum conveyor (68) about an axis (82). The shape thereof is adapted to complement and nestle against the enveloping curve of the drum conveyor (68).
