Abstract: The invention concerns a harvested crop residue chopper and distribution arrangement for a combine (10) with a straw chopper (60) with a rotor (74) that can be brought into rotation about a horizontal axis (98) with chopper blades (76) fastened thereto that define an outer envelope (96), and with at least one impeller blower (82) arranged downstream of the straw chopper (60) with impeller blades (84) that can rotate about an axis of rotation (88) that extends vertically, in which the impeller blades (84) are provided with outer edges (94) that conform to the envelope (96) of the chopper knives (76) and follow it very closely and are not in contact with it.

Abstract: In a crop residue chopping and distributing arrangement for a combine harvester (10) with a straw chopper (60) and two discharge blowers (100), a guide element (150) distributes the crop residue stream over the two discharge blowers (100) is arranged between said blowers. Passages (162) remain between the guide element (150) and the discharge blowers (100) such that the crop residues can be rearwardly discharged onto the field by the straw chopper (60) through said passages. Outer guide elements (141) are provided between the straw chopper (60) and the discharge blowers (100) in order to deflect the outer regions of the crop residue stream inward. The straw chopper housing (19) may feature a curved bottom (112) that axially conveys the crop residues to the discharge blowers (100) at an angle, wherein a flat crop residue guide element (112) is arranged between the straw chopper housing (90) and the discharge blowers (100).

Abstract: A harvested crop residue chopper-and distribution arrangement for a combine (10) has a straw chopper (60) with an outlet (80) arranged in the plane of the outlet (96), with at least one impeller blower (82) arranged downstream of the outlet (80) of the straw chopper (60) with impeller blades (84) that can be rotated in the plane of the impeller blower (98) about an axis of rotation (88), where the plane of the impeller blower (98) may be inclined relative to the plane of the outlet (96). The impeller blades (84) may be connected with a central body (92) that is connected to a cone (94) facing the outlet (80) of the straw chopper (60).

Abstract: A harvested material residue chopping and distributing arrangement for a combine (10) is provided having a straw chopper (60) and two distribution blowers (100) between which a guide element (150) is arranged for distributing the harvested material residue flow between the two distribution blowers (100). The tip (156) of the guide element (150) is positioned on the circumferential circle of the straw chopping blades (96) such that the blades (96) remove harvested material residue from the tip (156) during operation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a crop residue chopping-and-distributing arrangement for a combine, with a straw chopper (60) and two distribution blowers (100) arranged laterally alongside one another, on the periphery of which is provided a respective first shield (144), adjustable about axis of rotation (108) for modifying the distribution characteristics, that can be brought into an active position. It is proposed that the first shields (144) are respectively mounted on a rotary holder (176) rotatable about axis of rotation (84) of the associated distribution blower (100) and additionally carrying a second shield (146), which has a smaller dimension in the circumferential direction than first shield (144), so that second shield (146) can selectively be brought into an active position instead of first shield (144).

Abstract: The invention concerns a combine (10) with a chassis (12) that can be moved across a field in the forward operating direction, a harvested crop processing arrangement (26) with an outlet (62) for straw and a straw chopper (60) with an inlet for straw (58). A rotating conveyor drum (68) is attached downstream of the outlet (62) of the harvested crop processing arrangement (26) and upstream of the inlet (58) of the straw chopper (60) that rotates in a first direction of rotation in the swath deposit operating mode and that conveys the straw received from the harvested crop processing arrangement (26) past the straw chopper (60) to the ground, and conveys it in the chopper operating mode in the second direction of rotation into the inlet (58) of the straw chopper (60).
