    摘要: A feed roll includes paddles mounted upright on a cylindrical surface of the roll and oriented parallel to its rotation axis, and V-shaped vanes in a central area of the feed roll. One or more paddles or paddle portions are located in the central area. The paddles or paddle portions may be located between the blades that define the V-shaped vanes, i.e. blades which extend between a top point at or near the tip of the V-shape and a base point at the base of the V-shape. Paddles may be present between the base points of one or more of the V-shaped vanes, and additional intermediate paddles may be located between the top points and the base points of the blades. The paddles or paddle portions in the central area enhance the capability of deflecting objects away from the threshing rotors downstream of the feed roll in a combine harvester.

    摘要: A rotor for an agricultural implement such as a self-propelled harvester. The rotor includes a surface and one or more rasp bars which comprise a crop engaging portion that is immobile relative to the surface and a crop engaging portion that is movable relative to the surface, in that a distance between at least part of the movable portion and the surface of the rotor is variable. One of the crop engaging portions is a primary portion configured to engage with crop regardless of whether it is movable or not, while the other is a secondary portion that comprises a crop engaging feature such as a tooth for increasing traction on the crop. The crop engaging feature is activated, by either extending radially outwardly from the primary portion, or deactivated by lying at a same radial position or radially inwardly of the primary portion.

    摘要: A combine harvester comprises a threshing system and a cleaning system. The cleaning system comprises a crop flow sensing system configured to monitor a lateral distribution of crop on the cleaning system. The threshing system comprises a return pan configured to guide the threshed and separated grain in a forward direction towards the cleaning system. The combine harvester further comprises a hillside compensation system, configured to control the cleaning system in order to adjust the lateral distribution of crop on the cleaning system. The hillside compensation system is further configured to control the return pan separately from the cleaning system and depending on the lateral distribution of crop on the cleaning system.

    摘要: An agricultural residue depositing apparatus includes a human-controllable mobile vehicle that is capable of generating agricultural residue and depositing it on a ground surface over which the mobile vehicle is moveable. The vehicle includes an interface device that is capable of generating one or more output that is interpretable by a human operator. The apparatus include sensors of agricultural residue deposited by the mobile vehicle and processors to which the sensors are operatively connected. The processors are additionally operatively connected to the interface device such that the interface device generates one or more outputs, based on one or more signals generated by the one or more sensors, of or relating to agricultural residue deposited by the mobile vehicle. The processors are capable of adding human-interpretable augmentation to the outputs indicating one or more parameters of or relating to the deposition of residue.
