CA 2381019

A hay conditioning apparatus (20) includes a first roller (22) which is rotatably mounted in a fixed mounting and a second counter-rotating (compression) roller (24) which is rotatably mounted in connection with a moveable mounting (26). The compression roller (24) is in rolling contact with the first roller (22) and is adapted to receive pre-cut hay therebetween for conditioning. The moveable mounting (26) allows the second roller (24) to be displaced relative to the first roller (22) as the hay passes between the rollers (22, 24) and also includes a hydraulic cylinder (32) for applying a compression force to the compression roller (24). As the pre-cut hay passes between the rollers (22, 24), it is subjected to a predetermined compression force sufficient to substantially flatten any green nodes on the hay and thereby accelerate drying of the hay.

Selon l'invention, un appareil de conditionnement de fourrage (20) comprend un premier rouleau (22), installé rotatif dans une première monture fixe, et un deuxième rouleur contrarotatif (de compression) (24), installé rotatif et relié à une monture mobile (26). Le rouleau de compression (24), qui est en contact de roulement avec le premier rouleau (22), est conçu pour recevoir à des fins de conditionnement du fourrage préalablement coupé qui rentre entre lesdits rouleaux. La monture mobile (26) permet au deuxième rouleau (24) de se déplacer par rapport au premier rouleau (22) à mesure que le fourrage passe entre les deux rouleaux (22, 24); elle comprend également un cylindre hydraulique (32) servant à appliquer une force de compression au rouleau de compression (24). A mesure que le fourrage préalablement coupé passe entre les rouleaux (22, 24), il est soumis à l'action d'une force de compression prédéterminée, qui est suffisante pour aplatir sensiblement n'importe quels noeuds verts dans le fourrage et accélérer ainsi le séchage du fourrage.
