Abstract
The present invention provides a tine having segments that extend in a converging manner. As a result of this configuration, the harvested crop can be thrown off the tine more easily and into the desired windrow. A base is formed as a consequence of this configuration. The base closes or reduces open space between adjoining tines and increases the conveying surface.

- at least two segments generally oriented in a radially outward direction from the rotor, the segments including converging portions that converge toward their radially outward ends, wherein the converging portions are formed by an inclined section extending at an angle to a radial line from the conditioner rotor.
