  • Rotary piler system for sugar cane
    Patent number: 4609318
    Abstract: A sugar cane piler system comprising a standard push piler with attached, rotating, multipointed star wheels which rotate about fixed but adjustable points. The rotary piler assists in rolling the cane in front of the push piler and dislodges dirt, mud, and other foreign matter from the cane in the heap row being push-piled for loading. Also, by increasing the rolling action of the pushed pile, a large pile of cane can be pushed for a fuller grab in the loading operation.
