Abstract: The invention is directed to a mobile bin device having a mobile bin with a first conveyor extending along the bottom of the bin beneath a bin opening to convey material in the bin to one end of the bin. A second belt conveyor has one end pivotally mounted to the one end of the bin to pivot relative to the bin upward and downward and to one side or the other. The second conveyor is slidably mounted in its pivotal mounting to side longitudinally in the mounting to along the one end of the bin beneath the one end of the first conveyor to shorten or lengthen the distance from the outer end of the first conveyor to the outlet end of the second conveyor at the one end of the bin. Power devices are provided to power the upward and downward movement of the second conveyor and the longitudinal movement of the second conveyor.

Abstract: The invention comprises a mobile dethatching or ground cutting apparatus having a frame with front and rear wheels and a towing arm mounted to the frame for towing behind a tractor. A rotary drum is rotatably mounted to the frame and a hydraulic motor is mounted to the frame for powering the rotation of the drum. The front wheels are adjustable in height for adjusting the weight of the drum relative to the ground. The drum has a plurality of slots and peripheral rods are mounted about the circumference of the drum with the drum having plurality of slots at intervals about its circumference rod receiving.

Abstract: The invention is a mobile bin with two conveyors with each mounted on a main frame and with the main frame having wheels for rotatably supporting the vehicle along the ground.

Abstract: Our transfer mechanism is attached to the front of a conventional combine. The transfer mechanism includes a number of longitudinally spaced rows of laterally spaced curved teeth or tines that move rearwardly and upwardly so that the tines of each row successively engage a growing or standing crop, such as pinto beans or field peas, lifting the crop sufficiently so that the cutter bar of the combine effectively severs the crop adjacent the surface of the ground. Continued rearward and upward movement of the tines, while still engaging the severed crop, transfers the crop to a more elevated location adjacent the auger. When the tines reach the auger, the shaft on which those particular tines are mounted is angularly rotated so as to release or dump the severed crop onto a curved floor beneath the auger. The auger moves the cut crop laterally and then rearwardly into the threshing portion of the combine.
