ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a seed-crop harvester which has been converted to provide elevation of the seed from the separation to a storage bin by a bucket-type elevator and discharge of the seeds from the storage bin laterally and downwardly into a hopper on a belt-type conveyor. The conversion eliminates or minimizes attrition which previously occurred when the seeds were dragged in contact with a metal surface in the screw- and drag-type conveyors and elevators previously used. Details of construction and mounting of the bucket-type elevator and the pivotal mounting of the belt-type conveyor with its hopper and flexible hood as well as other significant aspects of the invention are fully disclosed.
