ABSTRACT:
The pull-type rake is designed to remain in a preselected trailing position relative to the towing vehicle while the raking head may be cocked to the right or left without the operator leaving the driver's seat, thereby placing the head in condition to deliver raked material leftwardly or rightwardly depending upon the selected angular position for the head. The main chassis of the implement is constructed in the form of a parallel, four-bar linkage that may be skewed by the operator into leftwardly or rightwardly oblique positions relative to the path of travel of the implement, thereby cocking the rake head accordingly, and the head itself includes a frame and a reel carried thereby, both of which are constructed in the nature of parallel, four-bar linkages so that they, too, can be skewed by the operator. In a fully skewed position, crop-engaging tines of the reel move leftwardly or rightwardly at substantially right angles to the path of travel of the implement so as to maximize the efficiency of the side-delivery action of the rake.
