Divertable tailings return

摘要

The tailings of a combine harvester may be optionally returned to either the cleaning section or the threshing section through operation of a flapper valve in a bifurcated gravity flow chute receiving the tailings from a tailings elevator. Side wall openings are provided at the front and rear of a foraminous threshing cage through which tailings are optionally returned to either the threshing section or to the cleaning section.
