Plant engaging systems and methods for harvesting machines |
摘要 |
<p>A plant engaging system comprising a rigid frame (22), a first drum assembly (28), a counterweight system (26), and a rotation system. The rigid frame assembly defines a reference axis. The first drum assembly comprises at least one drum member (80) and at least one beater rod (30) extending from the drum member. The drum member defines a first drum axis (C), and the first drum assembly is supported by the rigid frame such that the first drum axis is parallel to and spaced a first offset distance from the reference axis (B). The counterweight assembly has a center of gravity and is supported by the rigid frame such that the center of gravity is spaced a second offset distance from the reference axis. The rotation system causes the at least one drum member and the counterweight assembly to revolve around the reference axis. Revolution of the at least one drum member about the reference axis causes the beater rod to engage the plant to dislodge produce from the plant.</p> |
