Corn header configured to reduce kernel losses
A corn harvesting header (24) includes a powered row unit (38) and a gathering hood (98). The row unit (38) defines a longitudinal crop row path that extends in a generally rearward crop travel direction and receives a corn row as the header (24) is advanced along the corn row. The gathering hood (98) partly overlies the row unit (38) and includes a laterally extending dam (132) that restricts corn from moving forwardly. The dam (132) at least partly defines a gutter to receive corn kernels and direct the corn kernels rearwardly.
SELF-ADJUSTABLE FEEDER FOR SUGAR CANE HARVESTING DEVICE
A self-adjustable feeder for sugarcane harvesting device having two vertical feeding rollers (5) rotating in opposite directions, aligned side by side and horizontally moving, kept under traction one against the other by at least one actuator (6A), and also, the upper edges of both feeding rollers (5), besides being coupled to hydraulic engines (7) rotating in opposite directions, are also hinged to a rear opening and closing structure (8), with guiding means to change the distance between the vertical centers of said feeding rollers (5).

Adjustable ear dam for a corn header
An agricultural header connectable to an agricultural vehicle including a frame, at least one row unit connected to the frame and including at least one gathering chain, at least one crop dividing member connected to the frame, and a crop saving attachment supported by the at least one crop dividing member and being adjustable between a lowered position and a raised position. The crop saving attachment including a base member fixedly attached to the at least one crop dividing member, an upper member movably attached to the base member and configured for adjusting between the lowered and raised positions, and a pair of flaps supported by the base member and slideably associated with the upper member so that a resting position of the pair of flaps remains substantially unchanged as the upper member is adjusted.

Remotely adjustable row divider for an agricultural harvester
A header for an agricultural vehicle includes: a header frame; at least one crop remover carried by the header frame; a plurality of row dividers pivotably carried by the header frame; and at least one divider lifter coupled to at least one of the row dividers and configured to activate in order to pivot the coupled at least one row divider relative to the header frame. The at least one divider lifter is configured to be selectively activated by a remote controller.

Sugar-cane harvester having a tubular frame
A sugar-cane harvester having a tubular frame is provided. The frame is configured for mounting a set of sugar-cane harvesting devices (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10), and is formed by a set of tubular parts linked mechanically to one another. The mechanical linking between the tubular parts that form the frame are made via at least one of rivets, soldering, or flanges. The frame may also be an exoskeleton-type frame configured for receiving all the components that form the industrial system of a sugar-cane harvester.

Row unit for a corn head assembly having a top plate with a structured surface
A row unit of a corn head assembly for an agricultural harvester capable of reducing grain loss is provided. The row unit includes a frame and first and second spaced apart row unit arms mounted to the frame, and a top plate. The top plate is positioned about a rear end of the frame and includes an outer surface having a retaining structure configured to inhibit a flow of grain in a forward direction along the outer surface.
