Abstract

The most typical physicomechanical factors determining the chamomile plant were studied in planning a sound design for a harvesting machine and selecting operating schemes and regimes for it. These factors include disposal of plants on the plantation: distribution of the inflorescence yield throughout height of the plants; and size-weight, strength, frictional, and aerodynamic properties. The work was conducted in three cultivation regions, viz., in the Belorussian SSR (B. Mozheikovo Sovkhoz), in the Krasnodar Region (Apsheronskii Sovkhoz), and at the Moscow experimental facility of the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute of Medicinal Plants (VILR), under conditions of mass flowering (during the period of harvesting) of chamomile inflorescences by the methods usually used in investigation of agricultural plants [7-9]. The experimental data were processed according to previously described methods [ 1 0 1 1 ] .
