ABSTRACT:
An axial flow combine harvester feed plate for directing crop material from a conveyor into the lower forward portion of an axial flow rotor housing. The feed plate includes surfaces that reduce the overall width of a mat of crop material entering the rotor housing and a surface that guides material upwardly and rearwardly. The surface of the feed plate that guides crop material upwardly and rearwardly directs the mat of crop material into the rotor housing hear the front of the axial flow rotor on one side of the rotor housing. On the other side of the rotor housing, crop material enters the housing some distance rearwardly from the front of the axial flow rotor. This results in a band of crop material engaging the rotor in the rotor housing.
