Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for harvesting stalk-like stem crops, having a number of picking units (2) which are arranged alongside one another on the frame of the device and each have picking plates (6), which laterally delimit a picking gap (4) and are adjustable in the transverse direction, and at least one picking rotor (8) located therebeneath, conveying units (10) which are assigned to the respective picking units (2), are configured as continuous conveyors that are driven in circulation, are arranged on opposite sides above a picking gap (4) and are configured with drivers fastened to the circulating elements, and a transverse conveying device arranged downstream of the conveying units (10), wherein the transverse adjustment of the picking plates (6) takes place by means of anchor plates (12) which are movable in rotation about an axis of rotation (14) by an adjusting lever (20).

Abstract: A combine header for a harvesting machine is provided with a frame and a cutter bar connected to a leading end of the frame. A conveying device connected to the frame conveys stalk material cut by the cutter bar. A drive device drives the cutter bar and the conveying device. First support wheels are connected to the frame at lateral ends of the combine header and support the combine header on the ground. The support wheels arranged underneath the combine header.

Abstract: A corn head attachment has a sweeper device extending across a working width of the corn head attachment. The sweeper device is attached to the attachment frame by support arms pivotable about a first pivot. The sweeper device position relative to the frame is adjustable by a longitudinal adjusting device parallel to the travel direction and height-adjustable about the first pivots. The adjusting device moves the sweeper device along a curved path in a first direction away from a first position, in which a rotary axle of the sweeper device is at a leading area of a harvesting slot, into a second position above a rearward area of the harvesting slot and also moves the sweeper device in opposite direction. The adjustment of the sweeper device along the curved path is controlled by a forced guiding action to avoid collision of the sweeper device with other corn head attachment components.

Abstract: A front attachment for harvesting corn for a self-propelled combine harvester includes a snapping unit for separating the corn cobs from the remaining components of the corn plant. The snapping unit has snapping rollers that rotate in opposite directions. An overload clutch is disposed within a drive train of the snapping unit. A drive system is optimized in that an overload clutch is directly assigned to each of the snapping rollers.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for pivoting the dividers of an agricultural machine for the harvesting of row crops. A multiple-part attachment having feeder housings to receive the row crops is attached to the front of the agricultural machine. The multiple-part attachment has side frames that are pivotable from a working position to a non-working position. Outer row crop dividers are arranged on the side frames in such a way that when the side frames are pivoted, the outer row crop dividers move relative to the adjacent inner row crop dividers. The relative movement of the outer row crop dividers prevents them from colliding with each other when the side frames are in a non-working position and allows for maximum feeder housing width when the side frames are in a working position.
