FIELD: agriculture.
SUBSTANCE: reaping machine (1) comprising a central section (3) located on a main frame (2) and at least two side sections (4) adjacent to the central section (3); a rear wall (15) passing substantially perpendicular to the main frame (2), a flexible knife bar (6) extending across the width of the reaping machine (1), and at least one transporting device (5) located behind the knife bar (6), at the relevant side sections (4) made in the form of at least one endless conveyor belt (7) adjacent to the central section (3) and intended for transporting harvested mass cut by the knife bar (6) to the lateral side towards the central section (3). The side sections (4) comprise a plurality of brackets (16) hingedly mounted on the main frame (2) and carrying the knife bar (6). The respective side section (4) comprises a plurality of supporting elements (7) carrying the conveyor belt (17), which are mounted in the support (21) and movable axially relative to the main frame (2).
EFFECT: invention allows for better compacting and less wear of the conveyor belt.
