Abstract

A conditioning roller assembly includes a first conditioning roller which is rotatably mounted on a first holder, a second conditioning roller which is rotatably mounted on a second holder, and a pivoting arrangement which includes a first component and a second component which are connected together by a hinge with an axis extending parallel to the longitudinal axes of the conditioning rollers, and a resilient arrangement for providing pre-tensioning of the conditioning rollers. The first holder and/or the second holder is mounted so as to be pivotable in each case about a pivot axis relative to the associated first component and/or second component for servicing purposes.
