A grain separating apparatus (1) for a combine harvester (2). The grain separating apparatus (1) has at least a first walker-sieve (3) and a second walker-sieve (4) arranged side by side, wherein the first walker-sieve (3) and the second walker-sieve (4) are suspended in at least two suspension points (5,6) in the combine harvester (2) and wherein at least one of the two suspension points (5,6) is arranged to describe a rotational motion. A rotational motion drive (7) is arranged to drive the rotational motion of the first walker-sieve (3) out of phase with the rotational motion of the second walker-sieve (4), wherein each of the at least two walker-sieves (3,4) include a straw walker (8) comprising drivers (9) for conveying a straw material (10) and wherein grain (11) and debris (12) are separated from the straw material (10) through walker apertures (13) arranged in the straw walker (8). Furthermore, the straw walker (8) is arranged on top of at least one sieve (14,15) which is arranged to separate grain (11) from the debris (12) and wherein the straw walker (8) and the at least one sieve (14,15) are rigidly connected. Furthermore, a method for separating grain (11) from straw material (10) in a combine harvester (2) by a grain separating apparatus (1) as described above.
A grain separating apparatus for a combine harvester, said grain separating apparatus comprising at least a first walker-sieve and a second walker-sieve arranged side by side, wherein said first walker-sieve and said second walker-sieve are suspended in at least two suspension points in said combine harvester, wherein at least one of said two suspension points describes a rotational motion and wherein a rotational motion drive drives said rotational motion of said first walker-sieve out of phase with said rotational motion of said second walker-sieve, wherein each of said at least two walker-sieves include
A method for separating grain from straw material in a combine harvester by means of a grain separating apparatus comprising at least a first walker-sieve and a second walker-sieve arranged side by side, wherein each of said first walker-sieve and said second walker-sieve comprise a straw walker comprising drivers for conveying a straw material, wherein at least a portion of said straw walker is rigidly connected directly on top of, and at least partly aligns with, at least one sieve and wherein said first walker-sieve and said second walker-sieve are suspended in at least two suspension points in said combine harvester, said method comprising the steps of
