An agricultural harvester, such as a combine harvester, which has an auxiliary axle assembly for support of the feeder house of the harvester. The auxiliary axle assembly can be provided in a retracted position when in a field mode, and can be locked in an extended position when in a road mode, where a wheel of the assembly contacts the ground. When in the locked, extended position, the auxiliary axle assembly supports substantially all of the weight of the feeder house and any attached implements, allowing the feeder house to pivot relative to the main chassis of the harvester.

The disclosure relates to a steering control system useful for providing stable control during high-speed operation of harvesters, such as self-propelled windrowers. The steering control system utilizes a sensor for detecting and regulating a position of a single steering cylinder associated with a first caster, a damper being free of sensing and providing passive damping to the second caster.

An eccentric mount is used to adjust floatation force applied to a cutter bar of a pull type mower when the cut height of the cutter bar is changed. The eccentric mount is rotated to increase or decrease the tension on springs suspending the cutter bar. The eccentric mount is calibrated to adjust incrementally in relation to the position of the skid shoes to provide a floatation force to the cutter bar appropriate to the cutter height as determined by the spring shoe setting.

Self-propelled vehicles for forming bales of crop or forage material are disclosed. The self-propelled baling vehicles include independently driven real wheels and front caster wheels that allow the baling vehicle to turn with a counter-steer profile. In some embodiments, the center of mass of the formed bale is toward the rear of the vehicle to improve the weight distribution of the vehicle.

One apparatus for providing high-resolution CSI feedback includes a processor and a radio transceiver. The processor computes sets of amplitude and phase parameters for one or more channel compression matrices. Here, each channel compression matrix corresponds to one transmission layer of a multiple-layer transmission, where each channel compression matrix is comprised of one or more column vectors. The radio transceiver sends indications of the sets of amplitude and phase parameters to one or more network entities is a mobile communication network.

A suspension mechanism has a tube member that is movably attached to an attachment shaft and includes an outer peripheral surface of approximately hemispherical shape, a first attachment shaft retaining member provided on the chassis to swingably retain the attachment shaft with an outer peripheral surface of the tube member abutted on its inside surface, a shaft lower end portion of slip surface shape provided at lowermost part of the attachment shaft, a second attachment shaft retaining member provided on the chassis below the first attachment shaft retaining member and having a vertex equivalent section of approximately conical shape and a slope equivalent section to retain the attachment shaft with the slip surface shape shaft lower end portion abutted onto the vertex equivalent section or the slope equivalent section, and a biasing member that biases the tube member and the shaft lower end portion away from each other.
