Hay-making machine with tined roller - picks up hay and turns it over bench and onto ground to dry

摘要

The haymaking machine has a roller (3) with radially projecting tines (16) revolving on a transverse driven axle (4) in the direction of travel (f). There is a horizontal bench (5) the width of the roller (3), fixed flat about the same level as the top of the roller (3). A number of radial spokes (10) with flails (6) revolve horizontally about a vertical axle (11) moving the hay (7) over the bench (5) and subsequently on to the ground (9). The roller (3) lifts the hay and bends it over the edge (8) of the bench (5). USE/ADVANTAGE - Turns the hay completely during the process so that it dries more quickly.
