The invention relates to agricultural machines and can be used in cotton growing for the planting of cotton plants.

The purpose of the invention is to improve the quality of embossing while reducing the trauma of the bushes.

FIG. 1 shows a device for embossing the tops of cotton bushes, side view; in fig. 2 - the same, top view; in fig. 3 is a section A-A in FIG. 2; in fig. 4 - view B in Fig.3.

The device for stamping cotton bushes consists of a frame 1, mounted on a self-propelled vehicle 2, on which horizontal disk knives 3 are mounted, with vertical shafts and a mechanism 4 for their rotation. On frame 1, guides 5, carrier links of chain 6 with rollers 7 are rigidly fixed. Chain link 6 interacts with drive and tension sprockets 8. Brackets 9 are mounted on rollers 7, which are connected by means of cylindrical springs 10. shells 11. The latter are in contact with the bushes of the crustaceous 12.

The device for striking cotton bushes works as follows.

When a self-propelled vehicle (tractor) 2 moves along the rows along arrow B, chain link 6 together with rollers 7 and, therefore, with shells 11, move in the working zone in the opposite direction along arrow C, the asterisk 8 is widely known in the art methods in rotation along arrows D, while the translational speed of tractor 2 and shells 11 are equal to each other, i.e. The relative speed of movement in the working zone of chains 6 with shells 11 is zero to prevent damage to the plants. As the tractor 2 moves, the shells 11 cover the cotton bushes 12 in their lower part, squeezing them relatively to the cotton stalk, and as the tractor 2 moves, because the guides 5 are too-inclined, go upwards along the arrow E and carry branches with leaves are also in the upper part of the device. Since 11 leaves and branches of cotton bushes compressed with shells, 2 are raised up, the last

plugging the disc knives 3 and cutting them off. The shells 11 on the end section of the guides 5 are consumed and release the treated cotton bushes 12, each of which, moving along the arrows C, returns to the front of the device and repeats the process as described above. capture bushes 12 and chasing (trimming) them.

This device is aimed at efficient individual processing of cotton bushes by removing not only their tops, but also parts of growth branches with leaves with fruit elements and cotton bolls missing on them, which is ensured by the presence of truncated halves of cone-shaped shells 11, covering each cotton bush and moving progressively upwards to the tops of the bushes and directing most of the growth branches with cotton leaves to the disk knives for their removal with a disk knife in one pass of the transport Realizations

Claims (1)

Invention Formula A device for stamping cotton bushes, containing a self-propelled vehicle with a frame having a frontally installed horizontal bar with horizontal disk knives mounted on it by means of vertical drive shafts and mounted under them by inclined guides arranged in vertical planes parallel to the direction of vehicle movement Cameras formed by pairwise installed vertical side walls to orient the pieces, which means so that, in order to improve the quality of embossing while reducing injuries to the bushes, each pair of side walls is formed by a longitudinally split conical shell halves, spring-loaded relative to their respective guides, and the latter are made in the form of endless working bodies installed with the possibility of their simultaneous movement in the working area in the opposite direction to the vehicle.  , . h Fi.e In id 6 Fig.Ch
