    摘要: The present disclosure relates to an agricultural implement (1, 4) comprising a feed system for an agricultural product (5). The feed system comprises a flow path (12); an airflow generating unit (14) arranged in fluid communication with the flow path (12); a at least one metering device arranged to provide the agricultural product (5) to the airflow in the flow path (12); at least one distribution unit (20) connected to the flow path (12) downstream of the at least one metering device, wherein the at least one distribution unit (20) comprises at least one outlet (22); at least one sensor (303) arranged to measure a quantity relating to the flow path (12); and a control unit (200) arranged to control (160) the airflow generating unit (14) to obtain a desired airflow in the flow path (12) based on measurements by the at least one sensor (303). The flow path (12) comprises a measurement part comprising a first part having a first cross section area and a second part having a second cross section area. The at least one sensor (303) is arranged to measure a quantity relating to the flow path (12) at the first and second parts. The present disclosure further relates to a method for controlling (150) an airflow in a feed system

    摘要: The present invention relates to a particle transfer system and a particle transfer method which allow preciously-weighed particles to smoothly pass through a vertically-provided vertical pipe of a transfer line when powder-type particles are transferred along the transfer line, and which prevent the particles from remaining or stagnating in the vertical pipe. To this end; the particle transfer system includes a particle transfer unit including at least one from among: a first transfer unit for transferring the particles in correspondence to first transfer information; a second transfer unit spaced from the first transfer unit to transfer the particles in correspondence to second transfer information, which is the same as or different from the first transfer information; and a third transfer unit spaced from the first transfer unit and the second transfer unit to transfer the particles in correspondence to third transfer information, which is the same as or smaller in amount than the first transfer information or the second transfer information.

    摘要: A system for automatically controlling air flow rate within an agricultural system is provided. One system for distributing an agricultural product includes a metering system configured to meter the agricultural product from a storage tank into a conduit. The system includes an air conveyance system to provide an air stream for moving metered agricultural product in the conduit toward a distribution device. The air conveyance system comprises one or more sensors to monitor the product status and/or the air stream inside the conduit. The system also includes control circuitry configured to control air flow rate based on the product status and/or the air stream inside the conduit and/or the geographic location of the system.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a pneumatic distribution system configured to distribute a granular product to an agricultural implement includes a first pressure sensor, a second pressure sensor, and a controller. The first pressure sensor is configured to be fluidly coupled to a storage tank configured to store the granular product and positioned upstream of the meter roller. The first pressure sensor is configured to output a first signal indicative of a first static pressure in the storage tank. The second pressure sensor is configured to be fluidly coupled to a component of the pneumatic distribution system, downstream of the meter roller. The second pressure sensor is configured to output a second signal indicative of a second static pressure downstream of the meter roller. The controller is communicatively coupled to the first pressure sensor and to the second pressure sensor. The controller is configured to determine a pressure differential, wherein the pressure differential is the difference between the first static pressure and the second static pressure. The controller may also be configured to generate a first warning when the first static pressure is below a threshold value and output the first warning to an operator interface, generate a second warning when the pressure differential is below a desired range and output the second warning to the operator interface, and generate a third warning when the pressure differential is above the desired range and output the third warning to the operator interface.
