A separating device is provided for separating a harvested mixture of root crops and admixtures. The separating device includes at least one conveyor element which circulates in operation at least for supplying the harvested mixture to a separation region, or for discharging the root crops from the separation region in a conveying direction. The separating device includes at least one fluid flow generator and at least one directing device for directing a fluid flow in a fluid flow direction to the separation region. The directing device is at least realized in at least one directing portion by the conveyor element itself.

Screening belt unit is provided for a harvesting machine or harvested material transport device, and in particular for a root crop harvester or root crop transport belt, and for screening extraneous material out of a mixture of harvested material and extraneous material. A screening belt has at least two endless carriers, preferably in the form of carrier belts or chains, between which screening bars are arranged in a direction transversely to the conveying direction. The screening bars forming a plurality of screening bar units that comprise in particular in each case at least two screening bars. At least a part of the screening bars is fixed so as to be movable relative to the endless carriers. The screening belt unit has a positioning means which is arranged at least partially along the screening belt and acts on the movable screening bars. In the screening zone S, as seen in the screening direction, a spacing A in the conveying direction F of successive screening bars is defined and in particular settable in a variable manner, and associated flap unit.

A feederhouse conveyor system for an agricultural harvesting machine is provided. The feederhouse conveyor system includes a power transmitting system. The power transmitting system includes first rollers, second rollers, and power transmitting bands. The power transmitting bands are configured to each transmit power between each of the first rollers and the second rollers. The feederhouse conveyor system also includes rigid cross members, configured to each attach near each end to at least one of the power transmitting bands, and flexible cross members configured to each attach near each end to at least one of the power transmitting bands. The centerlines which extend through the rigid cross members and the flexible cross members are parallel. The mat attaches to the flexible cross members by a pocket in the mat through which the flexible cross members extend.
