Abstract
A harvester thresher has threshing elements and a plurality of separating elements each including a separating drum and a separating element located below the drum and provided with perforations and rubbing projections, a plurality of pairs of lateral wall members laterally limiting and holding a respective one of the separating elements, and a bar-shaped elongated supporting element extending in the direction of transportation, so that the separating elements are arranged on and shiftable over the supporting element as units.
Claims24
A harvester thresher, comprising
- threshing means;
- a plurality of separating means arranged adjacent to one another in direction of transportation and each including a separating drum having an axis and a separating element located below said drum, each of said separating elements including a perforated trough-shaped sheet member and a plurality of rubbing projections arranged on said sheet member and extending parallel to said axes;
- means for laterally limiting each of said separating elements and including a plurality of pairs of lateral wall members, each of said pairs of lateral wall members laterally limiting and holding a respective one of said separating elements;
- means for supporting said lateral wall members and including a bar-shaped elongated supporting element extending in the direction of transportation, said separating elements being arranged on and shiftable over said supporting element as units.

- a plurality of separating means arranged adjacent to one another in direction of transportation and each including a separating drum having an axis and a separating element located below said drum, each of said separating elements including a perforated trough-shaped sheet member and a plurality of rubbing projections arranged on said sheet member and extending parallel to said axes;
- means for laterally limiting each of said separating elements and including a plurality of pairs of lateral wall members, each of said pairs of lateral wall members laterally limiting and holding a respective one of said separating elements so that each two neighboring separating elements are centered relative to and locked with one another via the lateral wall members of the same, said lateral wall members being formed as angled members each having ends spaced from one another in the direction of transportation and carrying one end piece provided with a centering pin at one of said ends and another end piece provided with an opening at the other of said ends so as to center and lock said separating elements via the respective lateral wall members;
- and
- means for supporting said lateral wall members and including a bar-shaped elongated supporting element extending in the direction of transportation, said separating elements being arranged on and shiftable over said supporting element as units.
