Abstract

The article deals with the study of the possibility of using the
conical-disk flax pulling mechanism for the harvesting of linseed and
fibre flax, which are intended for processing into short fibre. The design
of conical-disk flax pulling mechanism has been proposed and can be
installed on a flax puller of a new design or on cereals combine
harvesters. The condition of pulling out the flax stems from the soil with
conical-disk flax pulling mechanism was obtained. Theoretical study was
allowed to determine the rational design parameters of conical-disk flax
pulling mechanism. Technical length and total length of the stems of
linseed and the force required for pulling out the stems from the soil
were determined as a result of experimental study. According to the
results of the study it was determined that the proposed conical-disk flax
pulling mechanism can be used for harvesting linseed and fibre flax
