Improvements bringest to the feed ducts of agricultural machines, such as harvesters - harvesters

摘要

In a combine having a header to cut crop material and an elevator to deliver the cut crop material to auger means in an undershot manner for feeding the same to threshing rotors of an axial flow combine, there is provided an improved transition or feed plate between the upper end of the elevator and the forward end of the rotor means to postpone or delay the discharge of crop material by the rear discharging portion of the elevator until leading portions of the discharging crop material are at least partially engaged by the auger means whereby more positive control is maintained over the transfer of crop material from the elevator to the auger feeding means.
