Abstract
A column storage system for agricultural machines comprises a ground support structure, a first machine which is supported on the ground support structure, at least a second machine which is arranged in a vertically higher position with respect to the first machine, a connection device which is interposed between the machines so as to support the second machine overlapping the first machine, and reversible connection means which are configured to removably fix the connection device to the machines.

A column storage system for agricultural machines, comprising:
- a ground support structure,
- a first machine which is supported on the ground support structure,
- at least a second machine which is arranged in a vertically higher position with respect to the first machine,
- a connection device which is interposed between the first and the second machines so as to support the second machine overlapping the first machine, the connection device including a plurality of beam-shaped connection elements which extend longitudinally from the first machine to the second machine,
- and
- fastening elements which are configured to removably fix the connection device to the first and second machines,
- the connection device being fixed directly to the first machine, through which the connection device is fixed indirectly to the ground support structure.
