ABSTRACT:
An agricultural machine operative to pick up, convey and invert a swatch or windrow of hay for the purpose of accelerating the curing thereof. The machine has a mobile frame which carries at its fore part a swath-straddling pick-up which function to pick up the swath bodily and to convey it rearwardly and then obliquely to the line of advance for return to the ground or stubble as an inverted swath ribbon or mat. The oblique conveyor comprises a plurality of parallel, closely side-by-side belts whose upper runs carry the swath ribbon from the pick-up mechanism to a discharge zone at which the discharge ends of the belts are arranged in staggered fashion along a line oblique to the path of travel of the belts.
