ABSTRACT:
A row crop attachment for forage harvesters has a plurality of row crop divider units arranged side-by-side on a base frame to define a plurality of crop conveying paths. A pair of gathering chains are arranged to pass through each crop conveying path from an entrance to an exit thereof, and a pair of rotary knives are disposed adjacent the entrance of each crop conveying path. Each gathering chain is wrapped around a drive sprocket and a pair of idler sprockets. The drive sprockets are located near the exits of the crop conveying paths, and the idler sprockets are located near the entrances of the crop conveying paths. One idler sprocket of each pair also serves to drive one of the rotary knives while the other idler sprocket of each pair is supported in a cantilevered manner forwardly of the rotary knives.
