The two-grade rotary chopper BIR-2 of root and tuber crops with flexible working elements is designed to remove the beets of vegetable leaves before or during the harvest of carrots. It is proposed to use it together with an undermining machine in an aggregate with a tractor of the 1.4 kN class of thrust with a front and rear hitch. In this case, the chopper of beets is hung on the front hitch of the power means, and the working units are driven in rotation by hydraulic motors, which allows the two unitized devices to operate independently of each other. Laboratory studies of the effect of rotational speed, type and diameter of the cross section of work items on the amplitude of their oscillations were carried out on the soil plots Kazan State Agrarian University. Several types of work items were used in the experiments: a rubberized metal cable, a rubber-fabric element, a fishing line. The approbation was carried out when removing the tops of carrots. At this stage of experimental studies, the rotational speed of the working unit was 700 min-1, and the onward speed was 2.5 m/sec. Later, for the experiments, the plasticine pins were made, using which, with the necessary accuracy, the lower and upper points of contact of the working element can be determined, which, in turn, makes it possible to calculate the amplitude of transverse oscillations as the difference between these points. The rotational speed of the working elements at this stage varied from 500 to 900 min-1, the cross-sectional diameter - from 5 to 7 mm. According to the test results, the most rational diameter of the working element, which is equal to 5.5 mm, was determined, the required cutting height of the carrot tops in accordance with agrotechnical requirements, which is 0 ... 20 mm at a frequency of rotation of the working elements 800 min-1. According to the testing results of the developed unit under production conditions, which were carried out in JSC “Kyrlay” of the Republic of Tatarstan, the rational speed of the unit movement was chosen, which amounted to 3.3 m/sec.
