ABSTRACT:
A multirow harvester header including a plurality of rearwardly converging crop dividers defining a plurality of crop receiving passageways therebetween. Each passageway has a corresponding pair of conveyors for conveying the crop through the passageway. As a means of conserving space in the area adjacent the crop receiving throat of the harvester, the crop engaging endless loop belt of one of the conveyors of a first and second pair of conveyors terminates substantially forward of the endless loop belt of the opposed conveyor with which it coacts to convey crop. A crop divider houses the short terminating conveyor and has a rear tip extending substantially beyond the rear end of the forward terminating endless loop belt. The tip provides enhanced positive feeding of the crop in the adjacent passageway by maintaining crop stalks in engagement with the opposed conveyor beyond the termination point of the forward terminating conveyor.
