Abstract: A wheel assembly includes a rigid wheel and an airless tire. The wheel includes a cylindrical rim portion that is parallel with an axis of rotation of the wheel and includes a transversely flat outer surface corresponding to at least eighty percent of the total width of the rim portion. The tire is mounted on the rim portion of the wheel and includes a cylindrical tire body presenting a transversely flat inner surface that engages the outer surface of the wheel. A plurality of traction lugs are spaced circumferentially around the tire and extend radially outwardly from the tire body. A plurality of drive lugs are spaced circumferentially around the tire, extend radially inwardly from the tire body and engage corresponding receptacles on the rim portion of the wheel.

Abstract: A wheel assembly includes a rigid wheel and an airless tire configured to present some performance characteristics of a pneumatic tire. The wheel includes a pair of radially outermost axially spaced rim portions, each rim portion including a transversely flat outer surface extending at least partially around the circumference of the wheel. The tire is mounted on the wheel such that the tire engages the outer surfaces of the rim portions of the wheel. A central portion of the tire is configured to flex inwardly between the rim portions of the wheel in response to ground engaging pressure, thus minimizing ground penetration and soil disturbance during use.

Abstract: An irrigation system and method of controlling operations of the irrigation system are provided. The irrigation system comprises a plurality of mobile support towers, a plurality of structural supports, a fluid-carrying conduit, water emitters, a sensor, and a control system. The plurality of mobile support towers are configured to move across a field. The plurality of structural supports extend between the mobile support towers, and the fluid-carrying conduit is supported above the field by the plurality of structural supports. The water emitters are coupled with the fluid-carrying conduit and emit water from the conduit onto the field. The sensor is supported on one of the structural supports or mobile support towers and is configured to capture data associated with a residue cover of a portion of the field. The control system is in communication with the sensor and is configured to receive the data associated with the residue cover of the portion of the field and determine a residue cover percentage for the portion of the field based on the data.

Abstract: A wheel track monitoring system for an irrigation system monitors the condition of a wheel track and alerts an operator and/or automatically takes corrective action when a wheel track develops ruts or other conditions that may adversely affect operation of the irrigation system. The wheel track monitoring system includes a wheel track condition sensor, a location sensor, and a processing system. The processing system receives and stores wheel track condition data and location data from the sensors as the irrigation system travels across a field and creates a log of wheel track condition data for multiple locations in the field. The processing system also analyzes the wheel track condition data to determine if the condition of the wheel track is unacceptable at any locations in the irrigated field and generates a corrective action signal if the condition is unacceptable.

Abstract: An irrigation system includes support towers, pipeline spans, a joint pivotally connecting the pipeline spans, and a truss section. One pipeline span extends between the support towers along a central axis and includes a middle region, and the other is adjacent and coaxial with the first pipeline span when aligned. The truss section supports one of the pipeline spans and includes compression elements, truss structures, and tension elements. The compression elements extend downward from the pipeline span. The truss structures extend longitudinally along the pipeline span and are fixed relative to the compression elements. The tension elements extend diagonally downward from the pipeline span toward the middle region of the pipeline span and are fixed relative to the truss structures.

Abstract: An alignment control system for controlling an alignment of a plurality of mobile towers, each mobile tower supporting a section of conduit in an irrigation system comprises a plurality of tower angle measurement devices and a control processing element. Each tower angle measurement device is associated with a successive one of the mobile towers and is configured to measure an angle value which varies according to a rotation angle of the associated mobile tower relative to one or more of the other mobile towers. The control processing element is configured or programmed to receive the angle value from each tower angle measurement device, compare the angle value to a threshold angle value, and generate and transmit control signals, data, or both that include an activation hysteresis value to a drive motor associated with each mobile tower that has an angle value greater than the threshold angle value.
