The separation of seed-bolls by long-fibred flax from stalks with the help of flax comb machine

Abstract

Purpose. The determination dependence of the quality flax tows long-fibred stalks in hatchel flax combing machines from the zone on seed bolls location in the stripe stalks and geometrical parameters of hatchel flax combing machine. Methods. Methods of empirical and experimental researches with absolute sequence parameters are used. Results. The influence factors on formation of stem ribbon, which falls into the combing apparatus of comb type, are established. These are the peculiarities of the technology growing flax and taking height of standing stalks. The zone of stalk stripe, which gets under the influence of combing machine flax thresher PML-1 are defined. Conclusions. The stalks in stripes laying out which are spread with the help of flax-pulling machines are arranged unevenly and have certain stretching out which influences the width of the seed boll zone. The width of the active zone in hatchel flax combing machines is 45.5 sm. The constructive position of the hatchel flax combing machine relatively to the conveyer let it separate seed bolls from the stalk stripe in the distance from the roots to the beginning of the seed boll zone not less than 32 m. Keywords: long-fibred flax, a seed-boll, flax combing machine.
