The paper covers theoretical substantiation of the rational parameters of a horizontal conveyer-cleaner of sugar beets providing their minimum loss during process performance. The procedure of conducting experimental investigations on the developed design of a horizontal conveyer-cleaner of root crops in configuration with a root crop harvester is presented. The results of the experimental research on determining root crop loss, damage and impurity depending on the design and kinematic parameters of a cleaner are provided. In order to choose the rational parameters, specific recommendations are provided.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
