    摘要: A stalk-diameter sensing system comprises a first sensor, a second sensor, a first stalk feeler, and a second stalk feeler. The first and second stalk feelers are deflectably mounted on opposite sides of a stalk-receiving gap that receives a stalk. The first and second stalk feelers are yieldably biased into the stalk-receiving gap for deflection upon contact with an outer surface of the stalk. The first sensor is coupled to the first stalk feeler to sense deflection of the first stalk feeler and generate a first signal. The second sensor is coupled to the second stalk feeler to sense deflection of the second stalk feeler and generate a second signal. Each of the first stalk feeler and the second stalk feeler comprises a first material and a second material different from the first material.

    摘要: A residue distribution system includes a flow channel having a first lateral side and a second lateral side disposed. A spreader is positioned proximate a downstream end of the flow channel, and broadcasts the flow of the crop residue. A residue distributor is positioned within the flow channel and upstream of the spreader for directing the crop residue toward one of the first lateral side or the second lateral side of the flow channel to increase a mass of the crop residue that side of the spreader, whereby a discharge density of the crop residue on that side of the spreader is increased to overcome effects of a crosswind or an uphill side-slope on broadcast distribution of the crop residue.

    摘要: An agricultural system comprises a stalk-diameter sensing system associated with a row unit and configured to sense diameter-related data of respective stalks and generate signals based on the diameter-related data. Deck plates associated with the row unit are spaced apart to define a deck plate spacing. A deck plate positioning system is coupled to at least one of the deck plates to adjust the deck plate spacing. A control system is configured to communicate with the stalk-diameter sensing system and the deck plate positioning system. The control system is configured to receive the signals, determine a statistical representative stalk diameter for a sample of stalks based on the diameter-related data, determine a target deck plate spacing based on the statistical representative stalk diameter, and output a control signal to command the deck plate positioning system to set the deck plate spacing based on the target deck plate spacing.

    摘要: An agricultural header for use with an agricultural harvester includes a frame, a row unit having a row unit frame, a first body and a second body. The first body is coupled to the row unit frame and includes a first post, a second post, and a third post defining a plurality of adjustment openings. The second body is pivotally coupled to the second post and selectively coupled to the third post via one of the plurality of adjustment openings. A first contact member and a second contact member are movably coupled to the second body. A sensing unit is disposed in contact with the first and second contact members. A stalk feeler is deflectably coupled to the sensing unit and is configured to being disposed within a plane. A movement of either contact member induces movement of the stalk feeler relative to the plane.

    摘要: Systems and methods for controlling agricultural headers based on crop movement relative to a portion of the agricultural header are disclosed. The presence or movement of crop material, such as a crop material representing grain (e.g., ears, heads, or pods of crops (“EHP”)), relative to the harvester header or a portion of the harvester header may be detected, such as by analyzing image data representing one or more images collected over time. Based on a position or movement or both of the crop material relative to the header, one or more parameters of the harvester header may be adjusted, for example, to reduce an amount of grain loss.
