Abstract
An agricultural machine is with skids equipped with interchangeable liners. The agricultural machine is a disk mower, a swather or similar machine, resting at least partly in braced manner on the soil during its use and provided with a working element and with skids designed to slide on the soil. These skids are formed in a lower wall of the working element or are integral with this lower wall, and each skid is provided with a liner having at least one frontal end and a frontal rim on each side of this frontal end. At least one of the frontal rims of the liner of each skid has a relief, at least one part of which penetrates into an indentation formed in the corresponding skid.
Claims16
An agricultural machine that rests at least partly in braced manner on soil during use and comprising:
- a working element and skids designed to slide on the soil,
- wherein the skids are formed in a lower wall of said working element or are integral with said lower wall, and each skid is provided with a liner having at least one frontal end and a frontal rim on each side of said frontal end, wherein each frontal rim forms an angle α with respect to a normal direction of forward travel of the machine during use, and
- wherein each frontal rim formed at an angle and provided along each side of the frontal end has a relief, at least one part of the relief penetrates into a respective at least one indentation formed in the corresponding skid.
An interthangeable liner for skids of an agricultural machine that rests at least partly in braced manner on soil during use, the agricultural machine including the skids and a working element designed to slide on the soil, wherein the skids are formed in a lower wall of said working element or are integral with said lower wall, each of the skids is provided with the interchangeable liner, the interchangeable liner comprising:
- an interchangeable wearing component with a frontal end and a frontal rim situated on each side of the frontal end, wherein each frontal run forms an angle α with respect to a normal direction of forward travel of the machine during use,
- wherein at least one of the frontal rims has a relief designed to penetrate into a respective at least one indentation of a corresponding skid.
A skid for the agricultural machine that rests at least partly in braced manner on soil during use, the agricultural machine includes the skid and a working element designed to slide on the soil, the skid comprising:
- an interchangeable wearing component with indentations for receiving at least partly, by engagement of nesting, reliefs of a liner,
- wherein the skids is formed in a lower wall of said working element or is integral with said lower wall, the skid is provided with the liner,
- wherein the liner has at least one frontal end and a frontal rim on each side of said frontal end, wherein each frontal rim forms an angle α with respect to a normal direction of forward travel of the machine during use, and
- wherein each frontal rim formed at an angle and provided along each side of the frontal end has the relief, at least one part of the relief penetrates into a respective at least one indentation formed in the skid.
