Studies on harvesting machines (X)

Some data for the design of reel

Abstract

In order to make the design of reel used on harvesting machines more easier. I tried mathematical analysis, and made some formulas and diagrams.
I represented the locos of reel slat in a mathematic formula, and the shape of rooped torochoid of the locas of reel slat in a formula, and drew diagrams.
I defined the hight of the reel and the distance between a reel and a cutterbar, and indicated some data of the reel from field tests.
