    摘要: A control system for controlling a vehicle system at least partly in response to an anticipated condition along the vehicle's course of travel is disclosed herein. The vehicle includes a drive train powered by an engine, and the anticipated condition may affect engine load. The control system includes a location signal generation circuit for receiving positioning signals and generating location signals therefrom, a memory circuit for storing a predetermined geo-referenced map including map data indicative of anticipated conditions along the course of travel which may affect engine load, and a control circuit. The control circuit predicts the anticipated condition using at least the location signals and the map data, generates a control signal based at least upon the anticipated condition, and applies the control signal to the vehicle system. The prediction of the anticipated condition can be calibrated using results of a comparison between a sensed actual condition and an earlier-predicted anticipated condition. Anticipated conditions include anticipated slopes, crop conditions and soil conditions. Crop conditions can be anticipated using aerial photography. The controlled vehicle systems include speed actuators, transmissions, crop processors, energy exchangers, clutches and differential locks.

    摘要: An air intake system for an agricultural implement having a mobile frame, an internal combustion engine carried by the frame, a heat exchanger defining front and rear planar faces, an engine driven fan and a walled structure enclosing the engine, heat exchanger and fan. The walled structure defines a screened air inlet through which environmental air is drawn upon operation of the fan. An air plenum directs environmental air between the air inlet and the front face of the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is mounted proximate to the fan toward one end of the air plenum. A bypass channel arranged adjacent the heat exchanger directs environmental air around the heat exchanger and exhausts a downstream of the rear face of the heat exchanger. Foreign material, carried in the environmental air, is likewise directed around the heat exchanger whereby preventing relatively rapid plugging of the heat exchanger.

    摘要: A spreader disk assembly for spreading crop residue such as straw discharged from an agricultural harvesting machine, and more particularly, which has a bat support mechanism that enables the bats to be quickly and easily hingedly or pivotally convertible from a deployed spreading mode to a flattened stowed mode for windrowing, which does not require removal of the bats, or the disk from the spreader. A locking mechanism is provided that enables the quick and easy conversion and securely holds the bats in both modes.
