HAYMAKING MACHINE WITH CONTROLLED PROJECTION WIDTH
20190380255 · 2019-12-19 · ·

An agricultural machine for processing cut plants to be moved in a progression's direction, the machine includes a chassis fitted with a hitching device enabling it to be hitched to the tractor vehicle, multiple rotors equipped with raking teeth that can be driven in rotation around substantially vertical driving axes distributed on either side of a median plane passing through the chassis. Each outer rotor and the penultimate rotor adjacent to it, driven in opposite rotational directions, form a module of which a longitudinal plane contains the driving axis of the outer rotor and the driving axis of the penultimate rotor, and, in work configuration, the longitudinal plane of a first module forms, together with the median plane, an acute work angle that is open to the rear, and the longitudinal plane of a second module forms an acute work angle with the median plane open to the rear.

Rake rotor height control
11889778 · 2024-02-06 · ·

An agricultural implement including a frame, at least one rake moveably coupled to the frame and including a plurality of tine arms, a plurality of tines connected to the plurality of tine arms, and a rotor drive configured for rotating the plurality of tine arms, and an adjustment system configured for adjusting a rake height of the at least one rake. The adjustment system includes at least one actuator, an electronic control unit operably connected to the at least one actuator, and at least one dust sensor supported by the frame and operably connected to the electronic control unit. The at least one dust sensor monitors a dust level and communicates dust level data to the electronic control unit which correspondingly adjusts the rake height based upon the dust level data.

SELF-PROPELLED WHEEL RAKE
20240147908 · 2024-05-09 ·

A self-propelled wheel rake may include a cab that may be mounted to or otherwise secured to a main body. The cab or the main body may include a powerhouse for propelling the wheel rake along the ground. The cab and main body can be positioned between or behind opposing rake arm assemblies of the wheel rake. The cab can be configured to allow an operator to sit or stand while operating the wheel rake.

TOWED AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT
20190230864 · 2019-08-01 ·

A wheel mounting structure for a towed agricultural implement having a support beam and a plurality of wheels. The wheels are mounted to the support beam to be displaceable with respect to the support beam between a first position in a transport position and a second position displaced from the first position away from the support beam in a working position. This has as an advantage that the framework is displaced to increase a ground clearance when the towed agricultural implement is in the working position.
