Abstract

The present invention relates to a rotor (90) applied to an extractor-fan assembly (80) for agricultural machines, especially for sugar- cane harvesters, the rotor (90) comprising a set of blades (1) fixed to a hub (2). Each of the blades (1) has such a construction that defines a root angle (3) that may range from 47 to 59 degrees, a medium angle (4) that may range from 53 to 69 degrees and a trailing angle (5) that may range from 66 to 78 degrees. Due to the construction angles of the blades (1), the air flow comes in contact with the rotor (9) smoothly, without any turbulence in its displacement, which results in high efficiency and efficacy of the extractor-fan assembly (80).

Abstract

The objective of the present invention is achieved by means of a row divider (1) applied to a sugar cane harvester (100). Said device (1) comprises at least one helicoidal lift (2) connected to an engine. Said helicoidal lift (2) has a conical shape geometry of variable cross section around an imaginary central axis (102), and comprises a first segment (3) and a second segment (4). The first segment (3) establishes a first generatrix (5) which defines an angle a to the central axis (102) and comprises a first screw thread (6) in its outer surface. The second segment (4) establishes a second generatrix (7) which defines an angle β to the central axis (102), so that β has a greater value than a. Said second segment (4) comprises a second screw thread (8) in its surface, which is oriented in the opposite direction of the first screw thread (6). Said device provides a higher peripheral speed in the last stage of separation and direction of the sugar cane cut by the blades of a sugar cane harvester (100) and lifted by the first segment (3) of the helicoidal lift (2) of a row divider (1). This aims to facilitate and expedite the work of the harvester (100), since it prevents the accumulation of material improperly positioned at the mouth of the harvester (100).
