Description
SUGAR CANE HARVESTING EQUIPMENT
THIS IINVEr^lTION relates to sugar cane harvesting equipment.
The indention relates in particular to apparatus that can serve at least as a cane topper for cutting-off the tops pf sugar cane s,talks in the process of harvesting sugar cane, thus removing a substantially valueless portion of the cane stalks and thereby improving the quality of the cane stalks delivered to sugar mills.
It is kηown to utilize apparatus that can serve as cane toppers in conjunction with cane harvesters, that serve also to cut the sugar cane and facilitate the handling and the transport of cut cane. However, insofar as these harvesters are extremely expensive, their use by cane farmers having relatively small crops is not economically feasible.
It is /thilis a firsjt object of this invention to provide apparatus that can serve at least as a cane topper that is more economical to use. Also, insofar as most cane farmers already require, the use o If a tractor, or a like vehicle, for various other applications, it is a further object of this invention to provide such apparatus that can be used in conjun icction with such a tractor, or a like vehicle.
In the Selection of a suitable vehicle with which apparatus that can serve at least as a cane topper, as envisaged, can be used, keeping in mind that the topper has to operate at an elevated level above the ground and that cane topping must occur forwarjdly of the vehicle as it travels along sugar cane rows, a vehicle having a boom that can support a cutting arrangement in front of the vehicle was considered most appropriate aπid the vehicle commonly known in the trade as a Bell loader was thus considered particularly suitable. All references herein to a vehicle having a boom, therefore must be interpreted as a reference to a Bell loader, or a vehicle of a similar type.
According to jthe invention there is prjovided apparatus for harvesting sugar cane, which comprises
a main frame including a carrier member and a coupling formation, the coupling formation permitting coupling with a coupling arrangement provided at the end of a boom carried by a vehicle and whereby the carrier member can be held at an elevated level above the ground operatively in front of the vehicle, to provide for the operative
guide formations supported on the main frame for guiding the sugar cane stalks of at least one row of sugar cane to the cutter arrangement, in use of the apparatus,
I with the apparatus disposed in its operative configuration and during displacement of the vehicle on which the apparatus is carried along a row of sugar cane, to provide for
the cutter blade of the cutter drum to top the sugar cane stalks as they pass by the cutter drum.
The CL tter arr angement may have two; cutter drums rotatably supported on the carrier membsr of th e main frame in a configuration in which the drums are disposed in a parallel spaced ' configur iation and the gu :ide formations can guide the sugar cane stalks of at least one1 different! row of sugar cane to the respective cutter drums, for topping thereojf. The cutter drums particularly may be disposed to permit each cutter drum, in association with the guide formations and in use of the apparatus, to top simultaneously the cane stalks of two rows of sugar cane.
The guide formations may comprise a combination of guide plates and guide arms supported on the main frame in a configuration in which, in use of the apparatus, they act on cane stalks growing in at least two rows of sugar cane for guiding the cane stalks in the different rows to the respective cutter drums.
Each cutter d rum may have at least one set of cutter blades projecting radially therefrom at ηadially spaced locations around the perimeter thereof. Preferably, each cutter drum rtjiay have at least two sets of cutter blades projecting radially therefrom at axially spaced locations along the length thereof. By providing two or more sets of cutter blades per cutter drum, the tops of cane stalks cut will themselves be cut into two or more smaller stalk segments, which is preferred in terms of the disposal of the cut cane tops back onto the land.
A particular embodiment of the invention provides for the carrier member of the main frame to comprise an elongate carrier bar that, in the operative configuration of the apparatus when coupled to the boom of a vehicle, is disposed to extend transversely to the normal direction of travel of the vehicle which, in use of the apparatus, is along the' lin e of a w of sugar cane, the cutter drums of the cutter arrangement being supported in spaced locations along the length of the carrier bar.
The configuration of the coupling of the main frame may be determined particularly by the configuration of the coupling arrangement provided therefor by the boom of the vehicle with which the apparatus is intended to be used, the said coupling arrangement
