The results of laboratory studies confirming the possibility of preliminary separation of free grain from the stripped grain heap before it enters the threshing chamber of a combine harvester are presented. For example, it has been established that the maximum free grain passage through the holes of the lath bottom is 68, 7% with a width of its holes of 8 mm and a length of 160 mm. The length increase of the lath bottom of the inclined chamber of the combine harvester up to 1182 mm ensures a complete separation of grain from the heap and exclude the possibility of its falling into the threshing chamber.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
