ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for harvesting row crops utilizing forwardly inclined gripping wheels mounted on the receiving end of a harvesting machine to lift crop stalks out of the ground and hold them for severing by a cutting blade. A low level drive shaft below the gripping wheels drives them through power transmitting means positioned completely below the wheels.
Baffle members behind and under each pair of gripping wheels prevent harvesting crop materials being conveyed laterally on a harvesting machine receiving platform from being caught by the revolving pickup wheels and thrown back on the ground. Flexible, brush skirts depending from the stalk gripping wheels assist in moving crop materials rearwardly of the wheels onto a receiving platform.
