Zusammenfassung: | The present invention is related to a rotor (40) for an agricultural implement such as a self-propelled harvester, the rotor comprising one or more rasp bars (80') which comprise a crop engaging portion that is immobile relative to the rotor's surface (82) and a crop engaging portion that is movable relative to said surface, in the sense that the distance between at least part of the movable portion and the rotor surface is variable. One of said crop engaging portions is a primary portion (99) configured to engage with the crops regardless of whether it is movable or not, while the other is a secondary portion (103) that comprises a crop engaging feature such as a tooth (108) for increasing traction on the crops, that is activated or deactivated as a function of the position of the movable portion, by either extending radially outward from the primary portion or by lying at the same radial position or radially inward of the primary portion. |
