The development of horse-drawn reaper-binder helped peasants to speed up grain harvesting operations. In the paper, the mechanical architecture, the mechanical power transmission and the main mechanisms of an old McCormick animal-drawn reaper binder are described. A detailed functional analysis of the various mechanisms of the machine, the finger bar mower, the packer system, the needle actuation system, the knotter and the bundle discharging system, is performed. The in-depth knowledge of these historical solutions, also from a functional point of view, can be the starting point for a modern redesign of new appropriate machines.

Abstract
The development of horse-drawn reaper-binder helped peasants to speed up grain harvesting operations. In the paper, the mechanical architecture, the mechanical power transmission and the main mechanisms of an old McCormick animal-drawn reaper binder are described. A detailed functional analysis of the various mechanisms of the machine, the finger bar mower, the packer system, the needle actuation system, the knotter and the bundle discharging system, is performed. The in-depth knowledge of these historical solutions, also from a functional point of view, can be the starting point for a modern redesign of new appropriate machines.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
