The crusher must be towed from a drawbar mounted on the lower arms of the three-point linkage of the operating tractor. During intermittent or slow travel, the pumpkins are pushed into the hopper by mechanical force using a pump pick-up adapter connected to the machine. The pumpkin crushing drum crushes the caps, this crushed material is placed in a “rod” separating drum where it is in constant motion due to the continuous rotation of the drum. In the gap between the rods of the pumpkin drum, the pumpkin seeds reach the bottom of the drum housing and the other materials reach the ground at the end of the pumpkin drum. Some of the intestinal material and soft parts that have passed through the pumpkin seeds leave in the lower perforated part of the pumpkin chopping drum housing. From here, the pumpkin seeds are transferred to a cleaning drum, where the suction effect of a fan removes the remaining intestinal materials and soft parts. The cleaned pumpkin seeds then enter the seed hopper seed hopper, which needs to be emptied from time to time.

The design of the method of emptying the pumpkin seed hopper can be constructed in two ways: conventional emptying via sander or auger emptying.

TR-2003 with its basic elements is equal to former TÖKROPP-1800; but based on the operational experience of previous years, we have introduced several modifications that serve the quality and efficiency of the work.

Characteristic values:

• modified separation drum, even better seed separation, higher productivity
• new, longer high-capacity exhaust fan with longer exhaust drum, even higher dry matter yield
• traction angle indicator (machine power depends largely on the horizontal)
• mountable bottom sieve

Technical specifications:

TF-1500 Hydraulical pumpkin pick-up adapter

The pumpkin mounting adapter is a trailer unit that can be connected to a console on the right-hand side of the machine during operation. The adapter consists of a mandrel roller, a pull-off comb for the pumpkins that have been pierced and a conveyor belt or a slide that guides the pumpkins into the funnel. The pumpkins are pushed together with two deflector plates across the width of the machine and picked up.

Characteristic values:

• the adapter can be controlled hydraulically from the tractor cab
• the working height must be fixed with the built-in fastening valve
• the fixed thorns on the roller can hold the attached blood
• the pumpkins are fed into the machine by the slide or conveyor belt
• as of 2003, the slide will be modified, which will also reduce manual work

Technical specifications:

The machine is equipped with electro-hydraulic control, the advantage of which is that there is only one cable connection between the machine and the tractor and no wires. This provides a more comfortable treatment.

The pick-up drum pierces the jackets, which are then placed on a wear-resistant conveyor belt consisting of several layers of rubber and fabric. This is driven by a hydro-motor. Unlike the previous construction, the pick-up drum is not a separate unit, but is mounted on the machine. It can be turned from the transport position or hydraulically lowered to the working position.

The steps of the breaker meet two knives that break the jackets into the tiniest pieces. The breakers have been adjusted (angle adjustment) to allow the best possible insertion of the jackets. In addition, replaceable wiper blades are provided, which can be turned over and used again after wear.

A high-performance extraction device ensures that the seeds still surrounded by the intestinal material are cleaned. These then enter the seed hopper via the auger. The speed of the extraction drum can be adjusted hydraulically, and an optional brush ensures that the extraction drum is constantly cleaned.

There is a auger in the seed hopper that conveys the seeds to the discharge auger. The unloading auger can be lifted hydraulically and allows a fast and carefree unloading on the trailer or truck next to the machine.

Technical specifications:

Due to the special planar and spatial placement of the twin wings, the soil under the plowed layer not only cracks along the fracture lines, thus exerting its loosening effect, but also crushes it, thus ensuring a decrease in soil bulk density, an increase in pore volume and an improvement in subsoil porosity.
FVMMI GH KHT. When comparing Gödöllő with an IH loosener, it measured a 40-45% increase in shredding efficiency in favor of the twin-wing loosener on the same soil at the same time.

Technical details:

• Construction depth: max. 55 cm.
• Weight: 1120 kg.
• Performance: 1.3-2.1 hectare / h.
• Dimensions: 3200x2200x1480.
• Speed: min. 4 max. 7 km / h.
• Tractive power requirement: on well-worked, binding, strongly binding soil 45-50 HP per structure.

Effect:

• It drastically and permanently improves the soil's vertical water conductivity and water retention ability on compacted soils for 3 years.
• It also creates a favorable water-air ratio under the plowed layer, to a depth of 50 cm, as a result of which the root mass increases.
• There is a very positive change in the mass of soil-dwelling aerobic bacteria, as a result of which a significant amount of bound nutrients are revealed from the uncultivated subsoil and are bound from the air, which lasts until the cultivation effect.

In the year following cultivation, without the use of additional nutrients, 2-2.5 t more dry matter was formed in maize, sweet corn, sugar beet and potato fields compared to conventional cultivation. In other words, producers harvested 2.6-2.8 t more from maize, 4-6 t from sweet corn, 8-10 t from sugar beet and 7-8 t from potatoes in 2003, even without irrigation. despite droughty weather. An average yield of 0.8-1 t was formed from sunflower on a 3-year average.

It can be used effectively on all soil types except quicksand.

Do not plow after the operation, as the soil of the already crushed soil dries out during repeated movement!
