Abstract: A compact belt tensioner to be installed in draper harvesting headers that accommodates the flexing and twisting of the conveyor belts and generates a constant tension evenly distributed across the width of the conveyor belts. The tensioner performs an automatic belt tension without the operators intervention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a belt guard assembly suitable for the harvesting platforms of the type that are carried on the front end of an agricultural combine. More specifically, belt guard assembly covers the void region at the front margin of the draper conveyor system and seals it against the entry of crop residue and foreign objects. The belt guard assembly is provided with a resilient seal strip that overlaps with the upper belt run, and with a rotary joint to permit flexibility between the cutterbar assembly and the draper conveyor.

Abstract: A feeder drum used in an agriculture head to force the cut crop through an opening of the head. More specifically, the feeder drum is used to produce the transition from the lateral movement of the crop through the platform to a transverse longitudinal movement (with respect to lateral movement) which directs it to the platform carrier's feeder. Even more specifically, the feeder drum comprises a plurality of fins or blades attached to a cylinder, wherein the fins contain one side with a profile describing a convex curve.

Abstract: The present invention relates to harvesting platforms of the type that are carried on the front end of an agricultural combine. More specifically, it relates to flexible draper platforms having both a flexible cutterbar assembly and a flexible draper assembly that enable the platform to accommodate uneven terrains across the width as it advances through the field.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a flexible agricultural platform characterized by having a plurality of support arms constructed especially composed of multiple sections hinged together, arranged to hold the cutterbar assembly. The set of multiple-beam pivoting arms used to hold the cutting mechanism of a draper conveyor type agricultural platform on multiple support points evenly distributed across the width of the main frame, and in a manner to admit the cutterbar to flex along its width—without intermediate rigid sections—in response to changes in the curvature of field while the platform is advanced.

Abstract: A flexible platform jointed to a conveyor belt for a combined harvesting, chopping and spinning machine includes a central assembly of parallel augers and an oblique auger on each side of the assembly.

Abstract: Crop header with lateral fingers and hood articulated which particular structure facilitates time reduction during the task of inspection of the transport commands or auger activations of the crop header thereby contributing to the rotation or turn of aforementioned lateral fingers, enabling an easy access to the commands or auger activations. In the machine the lateral fingers (A) and hood (8) are arranged in an articulated form in relation to the piece that contains the transport auger, and preferably, lateral fingers (A) and hood (8) articulate in a way that their longitudinal axles (A1) are displaced on a substantial horizontal level.

Abstract: A flexible platform jointed to a conveyor belt for a harvesting, spinning, and chopping machine which improves the functioning of all the platforms width, and eliminating deficiencies related to material, cereal or grain transport, with a transporting auger in all its width, obtaining a more homogeneous and smoother material flow. The platform includes two conveyor belts (1,2) adjacent and parallel to each other. The conveyor belt (1) is movable and flexible and is located adjacent to the cutting blades. The conveyor belts (1,2) are located between central corresponding augers (3, 4) and retractile central fingers (5), facing the feeder.
