Abstract: The invention concerns a fodder-processing roller. The roller according to the invention is noteworthy by virtue of the fact that each projection 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d; 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d; 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d; 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d belonging to a group of projections is joined by one of its edges to a corresponding edge of an adjacent projection belonging to the same group of projections by means of a branching element 17'a, 17'b, 17'c, 17'd; 18'a, 18'b, 18'c, 18'd; 19'a, 19'b, 19'c, 19'd; 20'a, 20'b, 20'c, 20'd having a reduced cross-section, so that all of the projections 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d; 18a, 18b, 18c, 18d; 19a, 19b, 19c, 19d; 20a, 20b, 20c, 20d and branching elements 17'a, 17'b, 17'c, 17'd; 18'a, 18'b, 18'c, 18'd; 19'a, 19'b, 19'c, 19'd; 20'a, 20'b, 20'c, 20'd belonging to the same group of projections form a rib 17, 18, 19, 20 which is arranged continuously along the roller. The invention also concerns a fodder-processing device and a mowing-processing machine using these fodder-processing rollers.

Abstract: Forage mower, including at least one module which is connected to a supporting unit provided with a feeding motion by means of a pair of motorized rockers and including a main frame which is pivoted to the rockers and to which two end subframes of a chain of three mutually pivoted subframes are pivoted; each subframe supports a disk that has mowing blades and is rotated by a hydraulic motor supported by the subframe. The main frame is pivoted to the rockers about an axis perpendicular to the direction of feeding motion, while the end subframes are pivoted to the main frame about axes parallel to the direction of feeding motion and the end subframes are also pivoted to the intermediate subframe about axes parallel to the direction of feeding motion.
