Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/041482
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A swather including a horizontal bar (1), having at a first end (R) a device for connection to a towing vehicle and at the opposite end a generally horizontal bar (2), transverse to the first one, each end of which is associated with a generally vertical member (3, 4) bearing a wheel (7), preferably a pivoting wheel equipped with a tyre, said assembly of the transverse bar and the vertical members being associated with generally horizontal long arms (10), directed towards said first end of the first horizontal bar and pivotally connected to the transverse bar or the vertical members, so that the arms, when extended to a working position, can make the assembly take a V-shaped or Y-shaped configuration. Each said arm is equipped with a pivoting wheel with tyre (6) at its end remote from said transverse bar, or distal end, and also with a plurality of wheel rakes (5). At least the pivoting wheels with tyres (6) located at or near the distal ends of said arms (10) are equipped with shock absorbing means, capable of attenuating the impulsive loads due to the impact of the wheels themselves against irregularities of the ground. The swather is also equipped with a device for the automatic locking and unlocking of the arms with rake wheels.
