AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS CLEANING MACHINE BY A SPIRAL CURTAIN CENTIFUGAL PROCESS
The disclosure provided herein is directed to an agricultural products cleaning machine for cleaning agricultural products, such as grains in general, whereby the agricultural products are thrown against a sieve system with curved sieves in the shape of a volute by a grain transport and elevation system or bucket elevator. When thrown, the agricultural products move along as a spiral curtain which collides with the curved surface of the sieve, promoting the separation of agricultural products from impurities. The sieve allows adjustment of the mesh, so that a simple adjustment allows the separation of diverse agricultural products without having to change the sieve to a bigger or smaller mesh

Harvester and Threshing Apparatus
The threshing apparatus 6 includes a threshing chamber 11 into which the crops are introduced, a threshing drum 12 that is provided in the threshing chamber 11 so as to rotate with the threshing drum axial center in the front-rear direction of the threshing chamber 11 serving as the rotation center, and which threshes the crops introduced into the threshing chamber 11, and a receiving net 13 provided in the outer periphery of the lower part of the threshing drum 12. The receiving net 13 is divided into a plurality of divided receiving net bodies 13A in the front-rear direction, the plurality of divided receiving net bodies 13A are operated to adjust, for each of the plurality of divided receiving net bodies, the interval S in the radial direction of the threshing drum 12 between the divided receiving net body 13A and the threshing drum 12.

System for removing particles from an air stream
A system for removing particles from an air stream includes a housing having an air stream inlet at a first end, and an air stream outlet at a second end. The housing defines a flow path between the air stream inlet and air stream outlet. An agricultural device generating an air stream containing particles is in fluid communication with the housing, the air stream from the agricultural device being directed into the air stream inlet of the housing. An aggregator is disposed between the air stream inlet and the air stream outlet. The aggregator facilitates the aggregation of particles within the air stream. The aggregated particles fall from the aggregator by force of gravity.
MECHANICAL ARRANGEMENT INTRODUCED IN A GRAIN COLLECTING AND PROCESSING MACHINE
A mechanical arrangement introduced into a grain collecting and processing machine using a hinged traction bar is provided, wherein two swivel gearboxes are installed, allowing the head to be assembled in the center and the machine to work laterally displaced over the tractor vehicle, on both sides, thus facilitating both the operation and the collection process. A grain collecting and processing machine including the mechanical arrangement is also provided.

CROP DUST SEPARATION SYSTEM
The present invention provides a system for separating crop dust from crop residue produced during a harvesting operation using a combine. The system comprises an attachment member configured to be used with the combine, a shroud fastened to the attachment member and extending downward to form a negative pressure chamber; and a container for collecting the separated crop dust exiting the outlet of the cyclone unit. The attachment member comprises a suction fan to generate a negative pressure to draw an air flow comprising at least a portion of the crop dust separated from the crop residue; and a depressurized cyclone unit in communication with the suction fan, having an inlet for receiving the air flow comprising the separated crop dust drawn by the suction fan, and an outlet having a turning interlock configured to maintain the negative pressure while discharging the separated crop dust through the outlet.

Vented side member for an agricultural vehicle
An agricultural vehicle including a chassis, at least one rotor supported by the chassis and configured for threshing a crop material, at least one exterior side member supported by the chassis and including at least one outlet, and an air conduit located underneath the at least one rotor. The air conduit is configured for providing an airstream directed to the at least one exterior side member such that the airstream forces a material other than grain out through the at least one outlet.
