ABSTRACT:
A haymaking machine has at least one rake member mounted for rotation about an upwardly extending axis. Tines or groups of tines are supported around the circumference of the rake member on corresponding means that enables the tines to move up and down with respect to a central portion, independently of other tines supported on adjacent means. In one version, groups of tines are supported at the ends of outwardly extending arms which are pivoted to the central portion. The tines can be mounted with a ground engaging wall segment which subtends an angle of the rake member's circumference. Also the tines, or rake member as a whole, can be mounted on a shaft that is journalled at an angle in a ground engaging spherical wheel. In another version, the tines can be mounted on an elongated support element that is interconnected to the central portion and an adjustable ring on that portion, with chains that permit the tines to move vertically and radially with respect to the central portion.
