Abstract: An inclined conveyor of an agricultural harvesting machine has at least one endless pulling element, at least one pulling-means guide operative for redirecting of the at least one endless pulling element and being pivotable, at least one tensioning device for tensioning the at least one pulling element, the tensioning device generating a return torque that acts on the at least one pulling-means guide.

Abstract: A cutting device for agricultural harvesting machines, such as, for instance, self-loading forage boxes or baling presses with a conveyor channel, in which a number of cutting blades mounted in rotatable fashion, arranged at least in a single row and protruding into the conveyor channel in a cutting position interact with a driven rotating conveyor mechanism equipped with conveying prongs and aligned along a horizontal axis crosswise to the travel and work direction for the purpose of cutting stalk products. A support mechanism provides elastic support to each individual cutting blade in the cutting position, and a control device releases the support mechanism, thereby allowing all or a number of cutting blades to rotate into a non-cutting position.

Abstract: A pick-up baler for agricultural produce with a compression piston 9 and a rotary conveyor, which rotates about an axis of rotation 18, comprises rakes 21, 22, which have axes 23 extending approximately parallel to the axis of rotation 18 of the rotor, convey the harvested crop through a supply channel 13, can be swiveled about their rake axes 18 under the control of curves and of which at least one acts as a conveying rake 21, the swiveling of at least one further rake, which functions as a supply rake 22, being controllable as a function of the degree of filling of the supply channel 13 in such a manner that, when a specified degree of filling of the supply channel 13 is reached, the harvested crop, collected there, is conveyed over a baling channel inlet opening 12 into a baling channel 11. The supply rake 22 is guided in a curved path 39, which can be moved from a conveying position into a supplying position, whereas the conveying rakes 21 are guided in an immovable curved path 34.
