ABSTRACT:
A mowing finger for finger bar mowers of harvesting machines having first and second opposing finger parts each formed of flat material. The first and second finger parts are fixedly secured to each other to define a gap therebetween for mowing action between them. The mowing finger has a tapered front portion located forward of the blade gap and a rear portion secured to a finger bar. One of the first or second finger parts includes a twisted portion twisted around the longitudinal axis of the mowing finger and fixedly secured to the other end of the finger parts to provide increased rigidity to the mowing finger. At least one vegetation-excluding deformation is formed in the first or the second finger parts in the area of the blade gap and extends into the blade gap to narrow and obstruct the blade gap against the accumulation of plant matter therein.
