FARM TRACTOR APPARATUS FOR PICKING UP GROUND FALLEN FRUITS
20200107501 · 2020-04-09 ·

The invention comprises a first and a second spiral sweeper. The first sweeper is laid down diagonally in front of the tractor and sweeps fruits away from the front of the tractor and directs them towards a second spiral sweeper also arranged diagonally so that both spiral sweepers form a V pattern which drives the fruits towards a low riding section of a conveyor belt which extends onto a rising section, which then drops the fruits into a bin. The apparatus is attached to a standard three-pint hitch at the rear of the tractor which provides the hydraulic power to drive the brushes and pistons, while a power take-off provides power for the conveyor and an optional blower. The apparatus is also attached by way of an attachment bracket to the front of the tractor.

HARVEST VACUUM ASSEMBLY
20200077590 · 2020-03-12 ·

A harvest vacuum assembly includes a vacuum motor coupled to a farming implement. The vacuum motor urges air inwardly through an intake and outwardly through an exhaust when the vacuum motor is turned on. A suction tube is removably coupled to the hydraulic lift on the front end of the farming implement. The suction tube has a suction aperture therein that is directed downwardly toward ground when the suction tube is coupled to the hydraulic lift. Moreover, the suction tube is in fluid communication with the vacuum motor such that the vacuum motor urges air inwardly through the suction aperture. Thus, the suction aperture sucks loose objects on the ground for collection. The exhaust on the vacuum is in fluid communication with a harvester is towed behind the farming implement to transfer the loose objects into the harvester for harvesting.

Agricultural motor vehicle

An agricultural motor vehicle designed to receive various agricultural implements, having a monoblock chassis assembled over 44 traction wheels, with a vibrating screen inside the lower portion of the chassis and a rotating cleaning set assembled lengthwise above the vibrating screen. The front section of the chassis has a concentrating guiding roller assembled crosswise upon it, with a hydraulic set for activation and transmission assembled above, the set serving as a support platform for a cockpit made accessible via a passageway and stairs. At the end of the rotating cleaning set is assembled a ventilation box with a motor power set is located on its rear side, and two pulling sets for residue outlet. A gutter for collecting clean grain is located at the end of the vibrating screen, the edges of the collecting gutter interconnected to cup elevators which lead into a dumper.

SELF-PROPELLED FORAGE HARVESTER

A self-propelled forage harvester is disclosed. The forage harvester includes a feed device, a chopping device comprising a cutterhead equipped with cutting blades and a shear bar for comminuting harvested material, a drive, and a driver assistance system for controlling at least the chopping device. The driver assistance system includes a memory for saving data and a computing device for processing the data saved in the memory, wherein the chopping device and the driver assistance system in combination form an automatic chopping system in that the computing device continuously determines a compaction of the comminuted harvested material using harvested material parameters during a harvesting process in order to autonomously ascertain and specify a cutting length to be adapted for maintaining nearly constant compactability.
