  • Patent number: 5480352
    Abstract: A rod conveyor for a harvesting machine, such as a beet or potato harvester, includes a plurality of spaced apart, substantially parallel rods having flattened ends. The rods are interconnected at their flattened ends to a pair of elongate cables by clamping brackets or U-shaped bolts. The rods are trained over sprockets and support crops thereon such as potatoes or beets for movement in a harvesting machine. The means for attaching the rods to the flexible cables permits ready removal and replacement of damaged rods.
