  • the receiving ring 36 is rotatably, but axially displaceably mounted on the shaft 30.
  • the receiving ring 37 is rotatably mounted on the shaft 30 and is driven by the means 39 which is directly or indirectly connected to a motor.
  • means 39 and 40 are synchronously controlled. Since the coupling rods 33 are in a vertical position, the distance between the knife 27 and the cutting bar 28 in the present figure is greatest possible. In this position of the knife, gaps are created.
  • the rotation of the coupling rods is effected by a short-term change in the speed of the means 39 compared to the speed of the means 40, wherein the speed change must be such that either the .Drehiere the means 39 slows compared to the speed of the means 40 or that the speed of the By means of 40 compared to the speed of the means 39 is increased.
  • the two means 39, 40 again at the same speed.
  • a greater distance between the knife 27 and the cutting bar 28 can be achieved again by bringing the coupling rods 33 into a vertical position. This is done either by the fact that the speed of the means 39 accelerated for a short time and / or that the speed of the means 40 is slowed down for a short time.
