Abstract:
An actuating arrangement (14) for a front end loader or the like is provided with a locking bar (52), an adjustable carrier (46) and an interlock (44). The interlock (44) is activated upon movement of the carrier (46) out of an operating position and prevents the locking bar (52) from being brought into a position in which the actuating members (40) can be activated. The interlock prevents unintended activation of the loader when the carrier (46) is in the non-operating position and prevents the carrier from being moved from the operating position unless the actuators (40) are blocked from movement.
Abstract:
A loader 10 includes a loader boom having opposite sides defined by arms to each of which is pivotally mounted a portion of a parking stand assembly including a support leg and a strut with the pivot axis for the leg being spaced between the implement at the end of the boom and the pivot axis for the strut. The support leg includes a pair of sides connected together by a web so as to be generally H-shaped in cross section over a major portion of its length. The web contains an opening through which the strut extends with the strut being in the channel defined below the support leg web and both the support leg and strut extending along the underside of the loader arm when the parking stand is in its stored position. The channel defined above the web receives the lower portion of the loader arm. A releasable fastener couples the strut to the arm, the strut in turn holding the support leg in place. When the fastener is released, the strut and arm gravitate toward a park position which is effected when a receptacle adjacent the end of the strut comes into engagement with a cross pin mounted to the support leg at a location close to the opening. The strut carries a hook which faces the receptacle and functions to prevent the strut from becoming withdrawn from the opening in the support leg web and thus separating from the leg.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus for measurement of the weight force of a bale of crop material after it is formed in a baler. The formed bale is movable in the baler by a conveying device and a weight force measurement device is provided for measuring a measurement parameter which is influenced by the weight force of the formed bale. The measurement device is set up so as to measure the weight force of the bale when the latter is resting on the conveying apparatus.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a round baling press having a baling press chamber and a door arranged in the rear section of the baling press chamber. The door is movable along a path between a closed position, in which the door extends along the back side of the baling press chamber, and an open position in which a completely formed bale can be ejected from the baling press chamber. The baling press further includes at least one sensor providing information on the position of the door. The sensor provides a signal value which contains information on the respective position of the door along its path of movement.
Abstract:
The invention concerns an arrangement for the movement of a working unit of an agricultural working implement between a first position and a second position, with an actuator that is provided with a chamber to which a pressurized medium can be applied and that is coupled to the working unit in such a way that it brings the working unit into the second position when the medium is applied to the chamber and the working unit reaches the first position when the medium is not applied to the chamber. An accumulator control arrangement serves to connect the chamber of the actuator to the accumulator only when the working unit moves into the first position.
Abstract:
A mowing arrangement includes a main, mobile frame to which a base or first carrier part or frame is mounted for being pivoted vertically by a remotely operable hydraulic motor. Mounted to the base carrier frame is a second carrier part to which arms supporting opposite side and front mowing units are attached. The front-mounted mowing unit is mounted to the second carrier part through the agency of a fourth carrier part, in the form of a parallelogram linkage that includes the support arm for the front-mounted mowing unit. The second carrier part is mounted for pivoting about a transverse, horizontal axis so that the cutting angles of each of the mowing heads can be remotely adjusted by pivoting the second carrier part. A third carrier part is fixed for movement with the second carrier part and supports a drive transmission having output shafts respectively coupled for supplying power to the three mowing heads.
Abstract:
A mowing arrangement includes three mowing units with which are associated a drive system including transmissions associated with each unit that are alike to the extent that the mowing units may be easily exchanged with one another. Specifically, one of the mowing units has an angle drive transmission while the transmissions on the other two mowing units are belt or chain drive transmissions. All transmissions are mounted for easy replacement whereby the angle drive transmission may be replaced by a belt or chain drive transmission like the other mowing units if it is desired to use the front mowing unit as a side mowing unit. A drive system variant includes two angle gear boxes used as a power-receiving transmission, with the result that all of the mowing units can be constructed exactly the same.
