Patent attributes
Sugarcane harvesting machine has an inclined conveyor which conveys sugarcane sections from the harvesting machine into a collection car and has at least two traction mechanisms which extend parallel to one another and have continuous carriers, and which circulate over upper drive wheels, and lower deflection wheels carried along and situated in the feed area of the sugarcane sections. Thus, inclined conveyor has a long, low maintenance service life and sugarcane harvesting machine operates quietly and energy-efficiently with a high cleaning effect. The continuous traction mechanisms are belts of fabric layer-reinforced crosslinked polymer, and cams situated at a distance from one another are situated on bottom side of the belts for forcible drive by the drive wheels. Belts are connected by transverse rods which as a whole form a screening floor and support floor, and deflection wheels which are carried along are configured as single wheels.
