Abstract: The invention relates to an agricultural machine. It comprises a first machine segment and a second machine segment which is pivotably mounted relative to the first machine segment about a segment pivot axis. The machine also comprises a transfer device which is designed to pivot the second machine segment about the segment pivot axis from a segment working position into a segment transport position, which has at least one actuator arranged so as to be pivotable about an actuator segment pivot axis relative to the first machine segment and which has at least one transmission element which is mounted on the actuator so as to be pivotable about an actuator transmission pivot axis spaced from the segment pivot axis and is arranged on the second machine segment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a header (10) for row-independent harvesting of corn using a forage harvester (80). The header (10) comprises at least three header segments (1, 2, 3, 4), including a first central header segment (1). Each of the header segments (1, 2, 3, 4) includes a conveying element (18) that rotates during operation to convey corn plants in a segment-specific conveying direction (SR1, SR2, SR3,SR4) toward a feed area (14). The header (10) further comprises a transfer mechanism (20) for shifting the header (10) from a working position (I) into a transport position (VI). In the working position (I), the header segments (1, 2, 3, 4) are arranged side-by-side in a transverse direction (QR) such that their segment-specific conveying directions (SR1, SR2, SR3, SR4) are aligned parallel to a ground plane (AE) and oriented toward the feed area (14).

Abstract: A cutting device is embodied for cutting agricultural crop plants by a rotational movement about a cutting rotation axis and has at least one knife element that, in a plan view of a top side of the cutting device, is embodied open in circulating direction. At least one radial conveying element, arranged at least at the top side and stationary relative to the knife element, is provided that at least in sections thereof is embodied for conveying the crop plants in a conveying direction that, relative to the cutting rotation axis, is oriented partly tangentially and partly radially relative to the cutting rotation axis. Moreover, a harvesting attachment with a plurality of such cutting devices and a field chopper with such a harvesting attachment is provided.

Abstract: A self-propelled agricultural harvester has a harvesting device arranged in a traveling and working direction of the harvester in front of a driver's cab. The harvesting device extends with its length in a transverse direction transverse to the traveling and working direction. The harvesting device has mowing and conveying devices that are driven in circulation about essentially vertical axes. Each side of the harvester has at least two of the mowing and conveying devices positioned adjacent to one another in the transverse direction. The devices cut, pick up, and convey as an endless conveyor an upright crop. The crop is fed to an intake area of the harvester exclusively with an area of the mowing and conveying device facing the upright crop. The mowing and conveying devices of each side of the harvester are driven in the same direction, respectively.

Abstract: A harvester has a harvesting device arranged in a traveling and working direction of the harvester in front of a driver's cab. The harvesting device has first, second, and third parts and extends with its length in a direction transverse to the traveling and working direction. At least the first and second parts are swivel parts that are pivotable about approximately 180 degrees about a pivot axis, respectively. The pivot axis extends approximately in the traveling and working direction, such that the swivel parts are transferable from a working position in which the swivel parts extend transversely to the traveling and working direction into a transport position. In the transport position legally permissible dimensions for traveling on roads are observed. A longitudinal extension of the swivel parts transverse to the traveling and working direction matches at least approximately a maximum legally permissible transport width.
