A header for a harvester has a reel extending transverse to a working direction of the header. The reel has reel rake tubes distributed circumferentially about the reel. Reel tines are fastened to the reel rake tubes. At least some reel tines are rotatably supported in bearings at the reel rake tubes and can rotate about a rotation axis along a movement path, predetermined by a control, from a neutral position into an evasion position and back. The evasion position corresponds to a spatial position in which a free end of the reel tines has moved in a direction corresponding to a conveying direction of the conveying device in the region of the reel tines. A distance of the free end to the reel rake tube in evasion position is reduced in relation to a distance of the free end to the reel rake tube in neutral position.

A reel assembly for an agricultural header includes a reel arm configured to couple to a frame of the agricultural header and configured to support a reel of the reel assembly. The reel assembly further includes a device mounting assembly movably coupled to the reel arm and configured to support a device that is configured to monitor a terrain feature. The device mounting assembly is configured to move between an extended position and a retracted position relative to the frame to move the device between a first position corresponding to the extended position of the device mounting assembly and a second position corresponding to the retracted position of the device mounting assembly. The device mounting assembly is configured to enable the device to monitor the terrain feature at the first position and the second position.

A reel power system for a header of an agricultural system includes an electrical generator having a stator and a rotor rotatably engaged with the stator. The stator is configured to be non-rotatably coupled to a support structure of a reel of the header. The rotor is configured to non-rotatably engage a base of the header. Furthermore, the reel is configured to rotate relative to the base. The electrical generator is configured to generate electrical power in response to rotation of the rotor.

A universal crop head assembly is carried at the front of and by a harvester. The new crop head assembly includes a frame assembly, an intermediate multi-crop reel assembly carried by the frame assembly and having selectively extendable and retractable fingers for small grain harvesting. A lower cutter bar assembly is carried by the frame assembly and for cutting grain stalks. An upper forward cutter bar assembly is carried by the frame assembly and supports an upper cutter bar for cutting corn stalks about an upper end, an adjustable air knife assembly for blowing against severed corn stalks upper ends; and a lower draper belt assembly carried by the frame assembly and for moving grain cut by the lower cutter bar assembly.
