Wet leaf gathering and compressing machine

摘要

The wet leaf gathering and compressing machine includes a main frame supported by wheels and adapted to be moved along a path parallel to a leaf windrow. A leaf gathering and compressing frame is pivotally attached to the main frame. A leaf gathering assembly, a leaf elevator and a leaf compressor are attached to the leaf gathering and compressing frame. The leaf compressor includes a pair of cantilevered parallel driven augers. Leaves are deposited on top of a forward portion of the parallel driven augers. the rear portion of the driven augers cooperate with a compression housing to compress leaves and force the compressed leaves into the lower portion of a leaf storage bin.
