Maize chopping and crushing machine - has beater wheel bending over tall stems to supplement drive cylinder and auger blades extending onto cone portion on central shaft

摘要

The agricultural machine is for chopping crops such as maize, and has the drive cylinder supplemented by a beater wheel bending over stems which are too tall. The cutter blades can have their cutting edges on the outside, and the blades of the augers can have a profile inclined to the rear, also extending onto a cone portion fixed round the central shaft. The space between the base of the cone and the auger casing can be small enough to crush the grains and stems and the crusher rollers can be constantly in contact along their sides, so that their rotation is synchronised.
