Patent number: 4688377Abstract: In an apparatus for farming vegetation lying on the ground, comprising a central frame, two first carrying arms that are pivotably mounted at the opposite sides of the frame and two second carrying arms that are pivotably mounted at the ends of the first carrying arms. Each second carrying arm is mechanically connected with the frame in such a way that pivoting the first carrying arm automatically leads to pivoting the second carrying arms. For this purpose a coupling bar can be provided between the central frame and each second carrying arm.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1985Date of Patent: August 25, 1987Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Jan Winkel, Hermanus H.

Patent number: 4550557Abstract: A roll baling device in where the hay is picked up and formed by a group of guiding and stretching members for endless belt-like elements arranged between and supported by two relatively spaced walls. A further group of cylindrical support elements are arranged in a substantially complete circle within the baling chamber and cooperate with the belts to limit the diameter of the round bale in accord with the diameter of the circle.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1984Date of Patent: November 5, 1985Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Jan Wondergem

Patent number: 4497161Abstract: A device for mowing agricultural crops, particularly grass, mainly comprising a continuous main beam (1) bearing a common main drive and a plurality of housings fastened to the front side of said beam (1), each accommodating an intermediate drive to an upstanding rotary shaft for a cutting member (3), wherein each housing is further provided with a freely rotatable member (52) bearing on the ground, and wherein the cutting members are connected through a safety clutch with the rotary shaft so that damage of the transmission gears in the drive due to jamming of the cutting member can be avoided, an undisturbed rearward transport of the crop is ensured and a free, overlapping moving region between two adjacent cutting members is obtained.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 1982Date of Patent: February 5, 1985Assignee: Multinorm, B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Hendrikus C. Van Staveren

Patent number: 4468916Abstract: The casing of a rotary mowing device is formed of a series of tubular sections secured together to form a hollow, rigid unit. The intermediate portion is formed of a series of similar sections defining an open-ended, generally rectangular tube and there are two end sections closing these ends. The casing houses a series of gears and at intervals upstanding shafts project from the casing and to which the rotary cutting members are attached. The parting line between sections are disposed in planes each of which contains the axis of one of the shafts.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1982Date of Patent: September 4, 1984Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Hendrikus C. Van Staveren, Marinus H. Weststrate

Patent number: 4401022Abstract: A device for baling agricultural crop comprising a compression chamber, a sidewall of which has an inlet port, a driven pressing member adapted to reciprocate along said port, an auxiliary space communicating with said inlet port for temporarily storing the crop to be compressed and a member periodically closing said inlet port and being rotatable about an axis transverse of the direction of movement of the pressing member in order to advance the crop out of the auxiliary space via the inlet port into the compression chamber, wherein the boundary of the auxiliary space near the transverse axis is formed by one or more elements having a circular circumference coaxial with the transverse axis, whereby it is avoided that crop is jammed between the rotatable member and the neighbouring boundary of the auxiliary space.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 1981Date of Patent: August 30, 1983Assignee: Multinorm, B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Gijsbert J. Mijnders

Patent number: 4366877Abstract: A device for coupling an implement drawn along on the ground with a tractor and for transferring driving power from the power take-off shaft of the tractor to the implement coupled herewith, said device comprising a carrier for a transmission, preferably gear transmission, of at least two portions relatively rotatable about an upwardly extending axis, the input shaft of said transmission coupled with the power take-off shaft being journalled in one portion of the carrier, whilst the second portion of the carrier is coupled with the agricultural implement, said input shaft being further journalled in a support provided with coupling members such that the support can be tilted about a pivotal axis extending transversely of the input shaft in its connection with the tractor.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 1980Date of Patent: January 4, 1983Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Gijsbert J. Mijnders
-
Patent number: 4330982Abstract: A mowing device comprises behind its cutting members a swath former, consisting of a worm rotor conveying the cut crop transversely to the travelling direction of the mowing device, in order to surely convey the cut crop irrespective whether the volume of the cut crop is small or great, the worm rotor rotates in such a sense that its front moves upwardly.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 1980Date of Patent: May 25, 1982Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Pieter A. Oosterling
-
Patent number: 4329837Abstract: An agricultural implement for raking or spreading crop lying on the field, for example, mown grass, comprising at least one carrier rotatably driven around an upright axis and having upright shaft pins arranged in a circle, on each of which is journalled in a freely pivotable manner a crop-engaging, tine-shaped element of non-circular cross section, wherein a flexible member independently of each element is arranged so that the tine-shaped element is held in an outwardly directed position with respect to the upright axis, said tine-shaped elements preferably consisting of two or more tines in overlying position the bending resistance in the vertical plane of the superjacent tines differs from that of the lower-tine.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1979Date of Patent: May 18, 1982Assignee: Expert N.V.Inventors: Hermanus H. Vissers, Jan Winkel
-
Patent number: 4267688Abstract: In a mowing device comprising besides cutting members also a rotor having catches which crush the cut crop, the crushing effect is increased by providing ballast at the free ends of the catches along the arcs of a circle of the catches.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 1979Date of Patent: May 19, 1981Assignee: Multinorm B.V.Inventors: Hermanus H.
