Harvesting device (10) of an agricultural harvesting machine, having a mower (11) for mowing harvested crops, having a conditioning apparatus (14) with conditioning rolls (15, 16) arranged downstream of the mower (11) for conditioning the mown harvested crops, having a transverse conveying apparatus (18) arranged downstream of the conditioning apparatus (14) for conveying the conditioned harvested crops, having a guide element (20) in order to transfer the conditioned harvested crops from the conditioning apparatus (15) onto the transverse conveying apparatus (18), wherein the guide element (20) is configured to be deflectable such that the guide element (20) adopts a position as a function of a harvested crop mass flow to be transferred from the conditioning apparatus (15) onto the transverse conveying apparatus (18).

A header includes a belt conveyor configured to direct a movement of harvested crop material toward a feederhouse of the combine harvester. The belt conveyor is located adjacent an inlet of the feederhouse. The belt conveyor includes at least one protrusion extending radially from the belt conveyor that helps direct movement of harvested crop material toward the feederhouse.

A method for performing an agricultural operation on a predefined working area which is processed by means of an agriculture machine comprising at least one elongate unit, wherein by means of the at least one elongate unit plant material is displaced substantially in a displacement direction and laid down in rows of plant material on the predefined working area, and an agriculture machine.

A crop ramp for use in a combine header is provided. The crop ramp includes a flat section, a curved section, and a flange. The flat section facilitates coupling the crop ramp to a cutterbar of the combine header. The curved section extends from the flat section. The curved section is configured to facilitate transfer of crop to a belt system of the combine header. The crop is transferred in a first direction defined from the flat section to the curved section. The flange extends from the curved section. The flange is configured to hover above the belt system of the combine header to prevent dirt from flowing in a second direction which is opposite to the first direction.

A header of a harvester includes a cutter bar assembly, a side deck, and an airbag. The side deck includes a conveyor and an arm assembly. The cutter bar assembly is configured to cut crops, and the conveyor is configured to transport the crops cut by the cutter bar assembly toward a center of the header. The arm assembly is coupled to the cutter bar assembly and to the at least one airbag. The arm assembly is configured to pivot to enable the cutter bar assembly to flex along a lateral axis of the header. The airbag is configured to apply a substantially constant force to the at least one arm assembly.

Example draper heads may include an endless belt conveyor and a catch pan disposed adjacent to the endless belt conveyor to collect crop material and defining a uniform gap formed between at least a portion of the catch pan and a portion of an endless belt of the endless belt conveyor located adjacent to the catch pan. A cleat formed on the endless belt cooperates with the catch pan to transport the collected crop material onto the endless belt. The catch pan may include a contoured end that conforms to a shape formed by the endless belt at an end of the endless belt conveyor.
