Cutter System For A Header Of A Forage Harvester

US Patent:
8117811, Feb 21, 2012
Filed:
Oct 1, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/896072
Inventors:
Larry D. Hall - Vero Beach FL, US
Douglas S. Fitzkee - Ephrata PA, US
Christopher A. Foster - Denver PA, US
John H. Posselius - Ephrata PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
A01D 43/00
US Classification:
56157
Abstract:
A cutting system for a forage harvester includes a source of rotational movement for each of the pair of substantially planar counterrotating blades and for a pair of substantially planar counterrotating gripping members. Each blade of the pair of blades is configured to rotate about a substantially parallel axis. Each gripping member of the pair of gripping members is configured to rotate about a corresponding rotational axis of one blade of the pair of blades. The source of rotational movement is separated from each blade of the pair of blades by an inner shaft. The source of rotational movement is separated from each gripping member of the pair of gripping members by a tube surrounding the shaft. The tube includes a gripping portion secured to a periphery of the tube between the source of rotational movement and the pair of gripping members.

US Patent:
8117810, Feb 21, 2012
Filed:

Appl. No.:

Inventors:
Larry D. Hall - Vero Beach FL, US

John H. Posselius - Ephrata PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
A01D 43/00
US Classification:
56157
Abstract:
A cutting system for a forage harvester including a pair of planar counterrotating blades, each blade of the pair of blades configured to rotate about a substantially parallel axis. A portion of the pair of blades at least partially overlap each other, but are spaced from each other in a direction perpendicular to the rotational axes. A pair of planar counterrotating gripping members with each gripping member of the pair of gripping members configured to rotate about a corresponding rotational axis of one blade of the pair of blades. The pair of gripping members are aligned with each other in a direction perpendicular to the rotational axes. The pair of blades rotate at a different rotational speed than the pair of gripping members.

Baler Gathering Wheel Height Adjustment

US Patent:
8371097, Feb 12, 2013
Filed:
Sep 26, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/244972
Inventors:
John R. McClure - New Holland PA, US
William Dale Hotaling - New Holland PA, US
Larry D. Hall - Vero Beach FL, US
Stephen C. Schlotterbeck - Okeechobee FL, US
Singh Chandrashekhar - Lancaster PA, US
Assignee:
CNH America LLC - New Holland PA
International Classification:
A01D 39/00, A01D 43/02, A01D 75/00
US Classification:
56341, 56362
Abstract:
A mechanism for connecting outboard gathering wheels to a moveable crop pick-up assembly on a round baler that incorporates a multi-element linkage to enable the rate of vertical movement of the gathering wheels to be different than the rate of vertical movement of the pick-up assembly. As the pick-up assembly is moved vertically by an actuator, the linkage interconnecting the gathering wheels and the pick-up causes the gathering wheels to also move vertically, but at a rate that is different, usually less, than the rate of vertical movement of the pickup. The linkage enables the pick-up to be raised sufficiently for transport without causing the gathering wheels to impinge upon the baler frame as occurs when both are raised at the same rate. Use of tension members in the linkage allows the gathering wheels to up float during operation without damaging the linkage.
