摘要: An agricultural system includes a header with a feed roller configured to engage a crop and to drive material other than grain (MOG) of the crop toward a field. The agricultural system also includes a chopper configured to cut the MOG driven toward the field by the feed roller for discharge from the agricultural system and a control system configured to output a control signal to adjust a speed of the chopper relative to a speed of the feed roller based on a size of the MOG discharged from the agricultural system.

摘要: A cutter bar assembly for an agricultural vehicle header includes a cutter bar supported by movable arms extending from a header frame and capable of operation in flex and rigid modes. The support arms are joined to the header frame such that they may be displaced from a raised position in the rigid mode when subjected to a lifting force due to striking an obstacle without damage to the header structure. Also, an agricultural vehicle header and an agricultural combine harvester includes the cutter bar assembly.

摘要: An agricultural system (100) includes a header (112) including a first header segment (220) and a second header segment (222). The agricultural system also includes an actuator (312, 314, 326, 328) configured to adjust a position of the first header segment relative to the second header segment. The agricultural system also includes a controller (224) configured to receive sensor information from a pressure sensor and compare the pressure to a threshold pressure. In some embodiments, the sensor information is indicative of a pressure within a cylinder of the actuator. In certain embodiments, the controller is configured to send instructions to the actuator to adjust the first header segment relative to the second header segment in response to the pressure being below the pressure threshold.

摘要: An agricultural combine having a chassis, an intermediate member connected to the chassis, a first actuator connecting the chassis to the intermediate member, a first gauge configured to measure a first force generated by the first actuator, a header movably connected to the intermediate member, a second actuator connecting the header to the intermediate member, a second gauge configured to measure a second force generated by the second actuator, and a processing unit operatively connected to the first gauge and to the second gauge and comprising a processor and a memory, the memory storing computer readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, are configured to evaluate the first force and the second force to determine a position of a center of gravity of the header relative to the chassis. A method for determining the position of the center of gravity and weight of the header are also provided.

摘要: In one aspect, a system for filtering signal interference from sensors signals includes a header comprising a frame and a powered component supported relative to the frame, and a sensor configured to detect electromagnetic waves indicative of a parameter associated with the header. In addition, the system includes an electronic control unit operably connected to the sensor such that the electronic control unit is configured to receive signals from the sensor associated with the detection of the electromagnetic waves. The electronic control unit is further configured to filter interference from the signals deriving from motion of the powered component relative to the sensor.

摘要: A control system and method for operating an articulating header of a combine harvester in a failsafe mode. The method includes monitoring the articulating header, alerting a user when a fault condition is detected in the articulating header, and converting the articulating header to a non-articulating header in response to the fault condition so that the combine harvester may be operated in a failsafe mode.

摘要: An agricultural system includes a header and a controller. The controller is configured to receive an indication to operate the agricultural system in a non-harvesting mode, output a first signal to set the header in a set profile upon initialization of the non-harvesting mode, receive sensor feedback indicative of an obstacle position of an obstacle relative to the header while the agricultural system operates in the non-harvesting mode, and output a second signal to adjust the header to deviate from the set profile based on the sensor feedback while the agricultural system operates in the non-harvesting mode.

摘要: An agricultural vehicle header suspension having a frame, a plurality of supports extending forward from the frame, an anchor plate, a frame pivot joining the frame to the anchor plate to be rotatable about a frame pivot axis, a frame actuator connected between the anchor plate and the frame and configured to resiliently hold the frame at a predetermined position relative to the anchor plate, and to allow the frame to move through a range of motion relative to the anchor plate, upon compression and/or extension of the frame actuator. The frame actuator may be, for example, at least one single-acting hydraulic actuator, mechanical spring, or a pneumatic cylinder.

摘要: 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.
