  • Patent number: 9775294
    Abstract: A modular gathering platform for grain harvesters is provided for coupling to the front of a grain harvester or processor which can gather plants previously prepared in one or more rows by at least one central belt conveyor with functional side by side coupling to other equal harvesting conveyor belts. The platform includes a transversal mounting structure having an internal opening, at least one central harvesting conveyor belt having front and rear extremities and two side couplings, additional harvesting conveyor belts coupled to the sides of the central belt, an anti-jamming roll and a rotating guiding roll. The central harvesting conveyor belt and additional side harvesting conveyor belts, the anti-jamming rolls, and the guiding roll are synchronized by an actuation assembly, and the guiding roll moves the harvested plants towards the exit. The platform advantageously allows for the gathering of a crop that has been prepared in rows.

  • Publication number: 20170156267
    Abstract: A transshipment implement for agricultural products, comprising a wheeled cart of the kind towable by a tractor; a complementary structure assembled over the cart; a dumper supported over the cart which has the ends of the upper edge of one of its side walls hinged to the corresponding points of the complementary structure, wherein it is tilted at an angle slightly greater than 90°; and an unloading and cleaning transshipment belt with an edge hinged in adjacent alignment to the same hinging edge of the dumper. The transshipment belt moves from a vertical position to a horizontal position, wherein, in the first position, the belt remains juxtaposed to the corresponding wall of the dumper, being embedded for the transport of the implement, while the second position is an unloading position for movement of the product received in the dumper to another receptacle, such as the compartment of a larger transportation vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20170000028
    Abstract: A modular gathering platform for grain harvesters, for coupling to the front of a grain harvester or processor, with means to gather plants previously prepared in one or more rows by at least one central belt conveyor with functional side by side coupling means to other equal harvesting conveyor belts, all of them positioned with their variable inclination, with their front extremity stays level with the ground to gather a row that was previously prepared, while their opposite extremities are also equally aligned with their respective anti jamming roll, these rolls and the upper extremities of the conveyors belts are assembled on the front of a transversal mounting structure that, by its outer rear, has an ample exit for harvested plants, as it also equipped with articulated means for coupling to the front of a general machine that will process the harvested plants.

  • Publication number: 20160316626
    Abstract: A harvester and processor for peanuts that comprises a drag type machine to be towed and actuated by a conventional tractor, which has various double assemblies to harvest lined up peanuts and process them through various steps of cleaning, up to the separation of the cleaned grains that are stored in an embedded tipper bucket, and to perform all this, said machine contains a chassis (1), that on its bottom side is supported by wheels (3), while on its top side is integrated with a plate body (4) forming a mono block structure for the assembling of all the embedded assemblies, starting with the frontal hitch pole (5) integrated with the transmission assembly (6) which is responsible for the actuation of various parts of the machine, specially two harvesting conveyor belts (8), anti-jamming receptive boxes (9), threshing cylinders (10), and in these cylinders starts the cleaning process together with the vibrating sieves (11) and the ventilation assembly (12), being that the cleaned fruits are delivered to a r

  • Publication number: 20150156965
    Abstract: IMPLEMENT FOR REAPING AND WINDROWING VARIOUS CULTIVATIONS, having a tubular structure (1), shaped as a lying down “U”, supported by frontal wheels (6A and 6B), with means for the assembling of all the sets of the implement, starting with openers (7) integrated with vertical cutting sets (8) assembled in front of each front wheel (6A), in which the opener sets (7) are responsible for opening way and separating the plants to be reaped or that are out of the machines width limit, while the vertical cutting devices trim the branches that could eventually cause a blockage, trimming the plant vertically; a gathering and lifting set (9) that extends for the entire width of the implement between the front wheels (6A), being responsible for selecting a lane of plants corresponding to the width of the machine and bringing it inward and upward at the same time as the reaping; a floating reaping set (11) also assembled through the whole width of the machine just after the front wheels (6A) and the gathering and lifting s

  • Patent number: 7908835
    Abstract: A reaper of grains is for reaping bean grains that is classified as a trailer. More specifically, a bean reaper for carrying out two different operations, the first one of which is gathering various plants, such as bean plants, peanuts and other grains, which have been previously plucked and aligned, whereas the second function of which is to perform a whole cleaning process by separating the grains (seeds) from the remaining unwanted parts.

  • Patent number: 6988353
    Abstract: An agricultural implement comprising a chassis (1) formed of various front (2) and rear (3) tubular, transversal components interconnected with crossbeams (4) and front (5) and rear (6) vertical and lateral struts, forming an ordinarily parallelepiped-shaped structure, the front and rear portions of which constitute attachment points for the front (7) and rear (8) wheel carriages, transforming the assembly into a true trailer, the rear portion of which includes universal coupling points for connection to the drive unit; in addition, the reaping assembly (27) is transversely assembled on such chassis (1) and, right above it or inside the first half of chassis (1) and before the conveyors (24) is assembled a branch collection assembly (28), so that the plant, on being reaped by assembly (27), can be immediately collected by the collecting assembly (28), which throws the branches on the conveyors (24), where the opening (15) concentrates the collected material for alignment thereof over the ground.
