Abstract: An agricultural system includes a header (200) that includes a frame (201) and first and second lateral conveyors coupled to the frame. The first and second lateral conveyors are configured to laterally transport crop material towards a central crop-receiving aperture. The header (200) also includes actuators configured to adjust a speed and a direction of the first and second lateral conveyors. The agricultural system includes a controller (302) configured to receive an input from an input device that causes the controller (302) to automatically link the speed and the direction of the first and second lateral conveyors to a vehicle speed and a vehicle direction of an agricultural vehicle that the header (200) is coupled to. The controller (302) is configured to provide a control signal to the actuators (308,310) that alters the speed and the direction of the first and second lateral conveyors in response to changes in the vehicle speed and the vehicle direction.

Abstract: A harvesting implement for an agricultural harvester includes an implement frame defining a plane extending in a longitudinal direction between forward and aft ends of the frame and in a lateral direction between first and second sides of the implement frame. Additionally, the harvesting implement includes a support arm coupled to the implement frame and a sensor coupled to the support arm. The support arm is, in turn, configured to rotate relative to the implement frame about an axis, intersecting the plane, between a first position at which the sensor has a field of view directed at a portion of the field forward of the harvesting implement and a second position at which a distance between the sensor and the aft end of the implement frame in the longitudinal direction is less than when in the first position.

Abstract: A harvester reel for an agricultural harvester. The harvester reel includes a central rotatable shaft, and a plurality of reel tine bars extending widthwise across the reel and connected to the central rotatable shaft for rotation therewith. Each of the plurality of reel tine bars includes a biasing member for biasing the reel tine bar to rotate about its central longitudinal axis, and a plurality of tines. A cam assembly guides rotation of the plurality of reel tine bars. The cam assembly includes a primary cam for guiding rotation of the tine bars during rotation of the central rotatable shaft, and a moveable or stationary secondary cam. The moveable secondary cam pivots the tine bars about their longitudinal axes away from a cutterbar. Alternatively, a moveable diverter cooperates with the stationary secondary cam to pivot the reel tine bars about their longitudinal axes away from the cutterbar.
