Abstract

Usage: cleaning the heads of root vegetables from the tops on the vine. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION: a root head cleaner contains a horizontal shaft with sections of working bodies. Sections consist of a central and an extreme 4 pests. Each extreme scourge is mounted on a separate shaft, connected to the shaft by means of gears, which are covered by a casing, which, with the extreme scourge, forms a single unit suspended on a bearing on the shaft. During the operation of the cleaner, the central scourge and the two extreme scourges rotate in opposite directions at the same peripheral speed, while the forces arising on the root keep it upright. When cleaning roots of different heights, copying is carried out by deflecting the extreme scourges of a single block. 2 ill.

WITH

The invention relates to agricultural machinery, in particular, to devices for cleaning the heads of beet roots from tops after cutting them with top-harvesting machines.

The purpose of the invention is to improve the quality of root cleaning and eliminate losses.

In FIG. 1 shows a head cleaner of root crops (two sections, one of which is shown in section): in FIG. 2 - the same, with open gear.

The root crop head cleaner includes a horizontal shaft 1, on which sections 2 of the working bodies are fixed for cleaning root crops from tops. Section 2 consists of a central 3 and an extreme 4 pests. In addition to the extreme pests 4, in each section 2 of the purifier are placed obliquely to the vertical at the same angle on the opposite .. sides, and the edges of the central pest 3 are parallel to the axis of the shaft 1. Each extreme pest 4 mounted

on a separate shaft 7, receives a drive through an intermediate gear (gears 6 and 5), connected to the shaft 1 of the central scourge 3 and rotating in the opposite direction and at the same speed with the central scourge 3. The gears 5 and 6 are closed by a casing 8, which is a support for the shaft 7. The shaft 1 passes through the bearings 9 of the casing 8 and holds the casing 8 in suspension.

The casing 8 with the intermediate gear (gears 5 and 6) and the outer scourge 4 form a single-block 10, which, thanks to the suspension on the shaft 1, can deviate from the vertical, turning like a dummy around the axis of the shaft 1. Scourges 3 and 4 are made of elastic material .

The head cleaner root crops works as follows.

When the cleaner moves along the rows of root crops, the rotating central 3 and extreme 4 pests of each section are removed from

the heads of the roots are the remains of the tops that remained after the cutting apparatus. Since the central 3 and two extreme pests 4 of each section rotate towards each other and at the same peripheral speed, the forces arising from this act on the root also in opposite directions and hold it in the soil in a vertical position.

When the cleaner encounters higher roots, the extreme pests 4 can, together with the entire block 10, be deflected by the influence of the root by a certain angle due to the rotation of the casing 8 around the shaft 1. The ends of the extreme pests 4 are moved along the arc () of FIG. 2 rising to a height h, that is, the process of copying heads

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A root crop cleaner comprising a horizontal shaft, on which sections of working bodies are fixed, for cleaning root crops from tops, consisting of central and extreme pests, the edges of the extreme pests in each section of the cleaner being opposite to the opposite angle to the opposite 0 5 roots in height. Due to this, the pressure of the extreme pests 4 on the high roots is reduced, which contributes to their retention in the soil. Due to their long length, the central pests 3 have much greater flexibility than the extreme pests 4, therefore they copy the uneven heads of the roots due to their bending. The quality of cleaning the heads is ensured by exposing the root to three whips whose ends are shaped like the heads of the roots, i.e., the edges of the extreme whips 4 are placed obliquely to the vertical at the same angle in opposite directions, and the edges of the central scourge 3 are parallel to the axis of the shaft 1. side, characterized in that, in order to improve the quality of root cleaning and eliminate losses, each extreme scourge is mounted on a separate shaft that is connected to the central scourge shaft through an intermediate gear to provide rotation in the opposite direction and at the same speed with the central scourge.
