Abstract
A harvester header (12) of the detachable type is provided with a transverse hollow beam (46) at its lower rear which optimizes available space. The beam (46) is of quadrilateral cross section with its rear wall (51) presenting openings (71, 72, 111, 112) beneath the header discharge opening (19) for centering and latching the header (12) to the feeder conveyor housing (13). The top wall (53) of the beam (46) slopes forwardly and downwardly in parallel supporting relation to the rear portion (39) of the header floor (36).
