Title: A Draper Header With Pivoting Side Draper Conveyors Field: The invention relates to draper headers. More particularly it relates to side drapers. Even more particularly it relates to pivoting side drapers. Background: Draper headers employ endless belt conveyors to convey crop from a reciprocating knife or cutter bar to the combine harvester vehicle that supports the draper header and carries the draper header through the agricultural field. Once in the combine harvester vehicle, the crop is threshed, separated, and cleaned. Draper headers have endless belt conveyors that carry the crop laterally (the left and right side conveyors) to a center portion of the draper, and a center conveyor that receives the crop from these side conveyors and transmits it to rearward and to the combine harvester. The endless belts for the draper header periodically wear out. When they wear out they must be replaced. The typical method of replacing the endless belts is to break them longitudinally at a splice and work them out of the machine, around rollers and through narrow spaces. This process is time consuming. It has been proposed, therefore to leave the belt intact in the form of an endless loop, to disconnect the forward ends of the rollers and to slide the endless belts of the left and right side conveyors off the rollers that support the endless belt. Given the size and weight of the left and right side conveyors, this process can be difficult if not impossible for a single person, or even for a pair of people to do. It would therefore be beneficial to provide draper conveyors with mechanical assistance capable of lifting and/or holding the rollers to/in an elevated position as the belts are removed. It is an object of this invention to provide such an arrangement. 1 Summary: In accordance with a first aspect of the invention, a draper header is provided comprising: a main draper frame having left and right sides; a left side draper conveyor pivotally coupled to the left side of the main draper frame; a right side draper conveyor pivotally coupled to the right side of the main draper frame; wherein the left and right side draper conveyors are comprised of, a side draper frame, at least one hinge coupling the side draper frame to the main draper frame, a first roller supported on an inner end of the side draper frame, a second roller supported on an outer end of the side draper frame, an endless belt extending about and supported on the first and second rollers, the endless belt having an upper surface disposed to receive crop severed from the ground and to transport it laterally toward a central portion of the main draper frame, the endless belt further defining a forward edge disposed to move in a recirculating path adjacent to the reciprocating knife, and further defining a rear edge disposed to move in a recirculating path adjacent to the at least one hinge, and at least one height adjuster that has an adjustable working length and is disposed to pivot the side draper frame upward about an axis of rotation defined by the at least one hinge when the working length of the at least one height adjuster is changed. The height adjuster may be a threaded fastener. The height adjuster may be disposed below the at least one hinge. The at least one hinge may constrain the side draper frame to pivot with respect to the main draper frame about a first axis that extends parallel to a lateral extent of the draper header. The threaded faster may abut the side draper frame at a point below the first axis. The side draper frame may further comprise an elongate front member disposed adjacent to a forward edge of the endless belt and an elongate rear member that is disposed adjacent to a rear edge of the belt. The elongate front member and elongate rear member may be generally parallel. The draper header may further comprise at least one bracket removably fixed to the reciprocating knife, which may further define a rear edge of the at least one bracket that extends over the forward edge of the endless belt. The at least one bracket may be disposed above the left side draper conveyor and the right side draper conveyor such that the endless belts of the conveyors cannot be slidably removed from the left side draper conveyor and the right 2 side draper conveyor until the at least one bracket is removed. The at least one bracket may be a crop ramp that is disposed to carry crop from the reciprocating knife over the forward edge of the endless belts. In accordance with a second aspect of the invention, a side draper conveyor for a draper header having a left side and a right side, a laterally extending main frame, and a reciprocating knife fixed to and extending forward from a forward edge of the main frame, may be provided, the side draper conveyor comprising: a side draper frame, at least one hinge configured to couple the side draper frame to the main draper frame, a first roller supported on an inner end of the side draper frame, a second roller supported on an outer end of the side draper frame, an endless belt extending about and supported on the first and second rollers, the endless belt having an upper surface disposed to receive crop severed from the ground and to transport it laterally toward a central portion of the main draper frame, the endless belt further defining a forward edge disposed to move in a recirculating path adjacent to the reciprocating knife, and further defining a rear edge disposed to move in a recirculating path adjacent to the at least one hinge, and at least one height adjuster that has an adjustable working length and is disposed to pivot the side draper frame upward about an axis of rotation defined by the at least one hinge when the working length of the at least one height adjuster is changed. The height adjuster may be a threaded fastener. The height adjuster may be disposed below the at least one hinge. The at least one hinge may constrain the side draper frame to pivot with respect to the main draper frame about a first axis that extends parallel to a lateral extent of the draper header. The threaded faster may abut the side draper frame at a point below the first axis. The side draper frame may further comprise an elongate front member disposed adjacent to a forward edge of the endless belt and an elongate rear member that is disposed adjacent to a rear edge of the belt. The elongate front member and elongate rear member may be generally parallel. The draper header may further comprise at least one bracket removably fixed to the reciprocating knife, which may further define a rear edge of the at least one bracket that extends over the forward edge of the endless belt. The at least one bracket may be disposed above the left side 3 draper conveyor and the right side draper conveyor such that the endless belts of the conveyors cannot be slidably removed from the left side draper conveyor and the right side draper conveyor until the at least one bracket is removed. The at least one bracket may be a crop ramp that is disposed to carry crop from the reciprocating knife over the forward edge of the endless belts.

Figure 2 is a fragmentary right side perspective view of the draper header of Figure 1 with the right end of the draper header removed and the endless belt of the right side draper conveyor removed. Figure 3 is a detail view of the right side draper conveyor shown in Figure 2. Figure 4 is a fragmentary rear right side perspective view of the right side of the draper header of the foregoing figures. Figure 5 is a detail view of the view of Figure 4. Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view through the draper header of Figure 5 taken at section line 6-6 in Figure 5. Figure 6 is a fragmentary right side view of the draper header of the foregoing figures showing the right side draper conveyor in a lowered operating position and in a raised belt-changing position. Detailed Description: In the description below, the terms "forward", "front" "in front of" and the like refer to the direction of travel of the header when it is traveling through the field in a straight line harvesting crop. This direction is identified in the figures by arrow "V". The terms 4 "backward", "rearward", "to the rear", "behind" and similar terms refer to a direction opposite to the forward direction. In Figure 1, draper header 100 comprises a main draper frame 102, a left side draper conveyor 104, a right side draper conveyor 106, a central conveyor 108 and a reciprocating knife 110. The main draper frame 102 supports the left side draper conveyor 104 , the right side draper conveyor 106, the central conveyor 108 and the reciprocating knife 110. A main frame portion 112 of the main draper frame 102 is configured to be supported on a feederhouse of a combine harvester (not shown) in a conventional manner. In this way, the draper header 100 is carried through an agricultural field in a direction "V" that is perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the draper header 100 and parallel to the ground. The left side draper conveyor 104 and right side draper conveyor 106 extend perpendicular to the direction of travel, and convey crop in a direction perpendicular to the direction of travel of the draper header 100 as indicated by the arrows superimposed on the conveyors. The central conveyor 108 extends generally parallel to the direction of travel. The endless belt that comprises the central conveyor 108 travels rearward in a direction indicated by the arrow superimposed on the conveyor. The central conveyor 108 receives crop material falling off the inner ends of the left side draper conveyor 104 and the right side draper conveyor 106. Material falling onto the central conveyor 108 has carried rearward through an aperture in the main draper frame 102. This material is carried rearward into the feederhouse (not shown) and into the combine harvester (not shown) for further processing. The reciprocating knife 110 is supported on the main draper frame and extends laterally across substantially the entire width of the main draper frame 102. The reciprocating knife 110 is disposed close to the ground in order to sever crop plants at their roots, and permit the upper portion of the severed plants to fall onto the left side draper conveyor 104, the right side draper conveyor 106, and the central conveyor 108. 5 Figure 2 illustrates the draper header 100 of Figure 1 in which the crop divider at the right end of the draper header 100 is removed and the endless belt that forms the moving surface of right side draper conveyor 106 is also removed. The left side draper conveyor 104 and the right side draper conveyor 106 are identically constructed but in mirror image relationship about a plane that extends vertically and fore and aft through the lateral midpoint of the draper header 100. Main draper frame 102 comprises a main frame member 112, cutterbar supports 114, and back sheets 116. Main frame member 112 is generally tubular and extends laterally across the bottom rear of the draper header 100. A plurality of knife supports 114 are fixed to the main frame member 112 and extend forward therefrom. They are spaced apart across the width of the draper header 100. At their forward ends they are fixed to reciprocating knife 110. Knife supports 114 hold reciprocating knife 110 in a fixed position forward of the main frame member 112. Knife supports 114 hold reciprocating knife 110 parallel to and generally forward of main frame member 112. The right side draper conveyor 106 comprises an endless belt 118 (Fig. 1) and a side draper frame 120. Endless belt 118 is removed in Figure 2 to more easily view side draper frame 120. Endless belt 118 is typically comprised of a fabric belt embedded in an elastomeric compound. Referring to Figures 2 and 3, side draper frame 120 comprises a generally planar frame 122, a first roller 124 and a second roller 126. Generally planar frame 122, first roller 124, and second roller 126 are coupled together to form a generally planar structure about which endless belt 118 is wrapped. First roller 124 is driven in rotation by a motor (not shown). Second roller 126 is an idler roller. The motor (not shown) that drives the first roller and the second roller causes the planar top surface of endless belt 118 to move in a direction indicated by the arrow superimposed on endless belt 118 in Figure 1. First roller 124 and second roller 126 are supported on generally planar frame 122 such 6 that their longitudinal and rotational axes are parallel, with first roller 124 located at the innermost end of generally planar frame 122, and second roller 126 located at the outermost end of generally planar frame 122. Referring now to Figure 3, generally planar frame 122 includes a rear frame member 128, front frame member 130, connecting members 132, 134, 136, 138, 140, 142, and tensioning mechanism 144. Rear frame member 128 extends parallel to the main frame member 112 and is hingeably coupled to the main frame member 112. Rear frame member 128 is an elongate member that is supported on hinges to pivot with respect to main frame member 112 about an axis that extends generally parallel to the longitudinal extent of the main frame member 112 and the longitudinal extent of the rear frame member 128. Connecting members 132, 134, 136, 138, 140, 142 extend generally fore-and-aft and are fixed at their rear ends to rear frame member 128. Connecting members 132, 134, 136, 138, 140, 142 are fixed at their forward ends to front frame member 130. Front frame member 130 extends generally parallel to rear frame member 128. First roller 124 is supported on the inner ends of rear frame member 128 and front frame member 130 for rotation about a central longitudinal axis of first roller 124. Second roller 126 is supported on the outer ends of the rear frame member 128 and front frame member 130 to slide laterally inwardly and outwardly with respect to the outer ends of the frame members 128, 130, and to rotate with respect to the outer ends of rear frame member 128 in front frame member 130 about a central longitudinal axis of second roller 126. Tensioning mechanism 144 comprises an adjustment member 146, a belt crank 148, a connecting link 149, and a tensioning arm 150. Adjustment member 146 extends through a hole in the back wall of draper header 100 such that it can be rotated by the operator to increase or decrease the tension in endless belt 118. As adjustment member 146 is rotated, it moves in the direction indicated by arrow 152. This movement causes bell crank 148 to pivot about bell crank mount 153. This pivoting movement of bell crank 148, in turn, causes tensioning arm 150 to move laterally with respect to the other 7 components of generally planar frame 122. This lateral movement of tensioning arm 150, causes second roller 126, which is supported for rotation on tensioning arm 150 to move laterally inwardly and outwardly (depending on the direction of movement of tensioning arm 150 and indicated by arrow 154). This inward and outward lateral movement, in turn, increases and decreases, respectively, the distance between first roller 124 and second roller 126. Thus, when the operator manipulates the adjustment member 146 he can selectively increase or decrease the tension in endless belt 118, including decreasing the tension sufficient to permit endless belt 118 to go completely slack, and therefore to be slidingly removed from side draper frame 120. Two elongate belt supports 155, 156 are supported on and above the upper surfaces of connecting members 132, 134, 136, 138, 140, 142 to provide a smooth, and relatively low friction surface that is capable of supporting the bottom surface of the upper run of endless belt 118 for sliding relative movement as endless belt 118 is driven in recirculating movement about the first and second rollers 124, 126. The side draper frame 120 is supported on hinges to pivot up and down with respect to main frame member 112. This pivoting movement is prevented during normal operation by fixing front frame member 130 to the reciprocating knife 110. Brackets 157 are fixed to the reciprocating knife 110 and extend rearward therefrom, partially overlapping the endless belt 118. The brackets 157 are fixed to stationary portions of reciprocating knife 110 by threaded fasteners 158. In Figure 3, two of these brackets 157 are shown, each being fixed to reciprocating knife 110 with three threaded fasteners 158. Four more of these brackets are provided to secure substantially the entire length of front frame member 132 reciprocating knife 110. These additional four brackets been removed for convenience of illustration. The brackets 157 cover a gap 160 that is provided between front frame member 130 and reciprocating knife 110. The brackets 157 function as a crop ramp to carry crop from the reciprocating knife over the gap 160, and onto the surface of the endless belt. If all six of brackets 157 were illustrated in Figure 3, brackets 157 would extend across the forward edge of front frame member 130, would cover substantially the entire forward edge of the endless belt, and would substantially prevent 8 crop from falling into the gap 160 or being inserted into the space between the forward edge of the endless belt and front frame member 130. Referring to Figure 4, four hinges 162, 164, 166, 168 are fixed to brackets 170 that form a portion of main frame member 112. Hinges 162, 164, 166, 168 are provided to pivotally couple rear frame member 128 (and hence side draper frame 120 and right side draper conveyor 106) to the brackets 170 and hence to main frame member 112 of the main draper frame 102. Hinges 162, 164, 166, 168 constrain side draper frame 120 to pivot with respect to main frame member 112 about a generally horizontal and longitudinally extending axis passing through and defined by all four hinges that is parallel to main frame member 112 and to rear frame member 128. In Figures 5 and 6, hinge 166 can be seen in greater detail. Hinge 164 is identically constructed but spaced apart from hinge 166 near the opposite (inner) end of rear frame member 128. The description below their four applies to both hinge 164 and hinge 166, although only hinge 166 is illustrated. The hinge 166 includes a hinge pin 172 about which the side draper frame 120 pivots with respect to main frame member 112. Alternatively, three (or fewer) of the hinges can be removed thereby supporting the side draper frame on at least one hinge (or more). Height adjuster 174 has an adjustable working length and is engaged to both bracket 170 and rear frame member 128. The working length of the height adjuster 174 refers to the distance between the height adjuster's connection to the main frame (in this case a threaded through-hole) and the height adjuster's connection (in this case its abutment) to the side draper frame 120. Height adjuster 174, is shown herein as a threaded member, e.g. a jackscrew, end changes its working length as it is rotated. As it is rotated, it therefore changes the distance between side draper frame 120 and bracket 170 of main frame member 112 and therefore changes the angle therebetween. In the embodiment shown here, as height adjuster 174 is screwed into bracket 170, its other end (the working end of height adjuster 174) is moved farther away from bracket 170. The working end of height adjuster 174 abuts rear frame member 128 below hinge 9 pin 172. As the height adjuster 174 increases its working length, it causes rear frame member 128 to pivot upward with respect to side draper frame 120, pivoting about the longitudinal axis defined by hinges 162, 164, 166, 168, and thereby changing their relative angular positions. In an alternative arrangement, the height adjuster 174 and the hinge pin 172 could have exchanged their positions such that height adjuster 174 is above the hinge pin 172. In these relative positions, decreasing the working length of height adjuster 174 would serve to lift the forward edge of side draper frame 120 by decreasing the distance between the upper portion of rear frame member 128 and bracket 170. Two hinges, hinge 164 and hinge 166, are identically constructed, each having an associated height adjuster 174. In order to keep side draper frame 120 light weight, it is beneficial to provide more than one height adjuster 174, although either one of the height adjusters 174 would work by itself. Referring to Figure 4, the two height adjusters 174 are spaced roughly 20% in from the opposing ends of side draper frame 120. If a single height adjuster were desired, that height adjuster may also be disposed at the midpoint of the side draper frame 120. Hinges 162 and 168 are identically constructed as hinges 164 and 166, but with a narrower bracket 170 and no height adjusters 174. In an alternative embodiment, each of hinges 162 and 168 could be constructed identical the hinges 164 and 166 and either one or both be provided with height adjusters 174. In these arrangements there would be three or four height adjusters 174, total. The only practical limit on the number of height adjusters 174 provided for each side conveyor is the amount of time it would take to adjust them during the lifting process. The more height adjusters 174 that are provided, the less the load on each height adjuster 174 and therefore the easier to adjust any individual height adjuster 174, which is a benefit. However, the more height adjusters 174 that are provided, the longer the time it takes to adjust each one, therefore increasing the amount of time it takes to lift the side draper frame 120, which is a disadvantage. 10 In Figure 7, the relative positions of side draper frame 120 can be seen when the height adjuster 174 is in two different positions. In the first position, position 176, height adjuster 174 has been retracted, its working length decreased, and the forward edge of side draper frame 120 lowered to its operating position. In the second position, position 178, height adjuster 174 has been extended, its working length increased, and the forward edge of side draper frame 120 is lifted into its belt-changing position. In typical practice, the operator first removes all a threaded fasteners 158 that hold the forward edge of the brackets 157 to the reciprocating knife 110. The operator then moves to the rear of the draper header 100 and manipulates the adjustment member 146 at the back of the draper header 100 to slacken the endless belt 118 on the first and second rollers 124, 126. Once slackened, the operator then manipulates the height adjusters 174 by increasing their working length and thereby pivoting the side draper frame 120 and the first and second rollers 124, 126 up into the air as shown in Figure 7 in phantom lines. Alternatively, the operator can lift the leading edge of the side conveyors manually, and someone else can change (in this embodiment increase) the working length of the height adjusters 174 to hold the side conveyor in the selected position. By lifting the leading edge of the side conveyors and pivoting them upward, the load in the height adjusters 174 is eliminated. This adds an additional step to the process, but is faster since it removes the load from the height adjuster 174, which makes it easier and faster to increase the length of each height adjuster 174. Once raised, the operator slides endless belt 118 forward and off the side draper frame 120 without having to cut or otherwise separate the belt to form one or more elongate sheets. The operator can then slide a replacement belt onto the side draper frame 120 and follow the steps in reverse order to secure the side draper frame and new endless belt in their operating positions. This process provides a quick and easy way to replace an endless side draper belt on a draper header. By providing height adjusters 174, the operator is free to move around to 11 H:AKWIntrwovnNRPortblDCCAKW5382500_I.DOC-8/08/2013 in front of the draper platform once the side draper frame is lifted into the air and to remove and replace the belt single-handedly. The various devices described in this specification suggest several ways to 5 practice the invention.
