Periphery display device for work machine

There is provided a periphery display device for a work machine, which displays a bird's-eye view image around the work machine. A display magnification of a region between a peripheral line having a turning radius of the work machine and an offset peripheral line surrounding the peripheral line is different from a display magnification of a region inside the peripheral line.

Latching system for dipper
11732435 · 2023-08-22 · ·

A latching system associated with a dipper door of a dipper includes a latch bar that engages with a body of the dipper. The latch bar defines a longitudinal axis. The latch bar includes a housing, one or more shims, and a wear member removably coupled to the housing. The wear member defines a wear surface and a wear axis extending parallel to the wear surface. An angle defined between the wear axis and the longitudinal axis is less than 45 degrees. The latching system also includes an arm member pivotally coupled to the dipper door such that the arm member is pivotable along a first pivot plane. The arm member contacts a portion of the latch bar for moving the latch bar along the longitudinal axis. The latching system includes a guide assembly having a guide pulley and an actuation member that causes pivoting of the arm member.

SWING AUTOMATION FOR ROPE SHOVEL
20220127826 · 2022-04-28 ·

A system and method for various levels of automation of a swing-to-hopper motion for a rope shovel. An operator controls a rope shovel during a dig operation to load a dipper with materials. A controller receives position data, either via operator input or sensor data, for the dipper and a hopper where the materials are to be dumped. The controller then calculates an ideal path for the dipper to travel to be positioned above the hopper to dump the contents of the dipper. In some embodiments, the controller outputs operator feedback to assist the operator in traveling along the ideal path to the hopper. In some embodiments, the controller restricts the dipper motion such that the operator is not able to deviate beyond certain limits of the ideal path. In some embodiments, the controller automatically controls the movement of the dipper to reach the hopper.

Center pintle hub

A center pintle hub to be affixed to a base of a machine. The center pintle hub includes a base portion and a support portion. The base portion is formed to be affixed to the base. The support portion extends from the base portion and has a frusto-conical shape that can receive a center pintle shaft. The center pintle shaft can support a frame of the machine and provide rotation of the frame with respect to the base.

Systems and methods for a product system of an agricultural applicator

A product system for an agricultural sprayer includes a product tank configured to store an agricultural product. A reclaim system can be configured to provide the agricultural product within a flow assembly to a product tank. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the reclaim system. The computing system can be configured to receive information indicative of one or more characteristics of the agricultural product inputted into the fill station during a fill mode; detect termination of the fill mode; and activate a reclaim mode to move the agricultural product from the flow assembly to the product tank through activation of the reclaim system, wherein one or more operating conditions of the reclaim mode are based on the one or more characteristics of the agricultural product.

Agricultural system and method for preventing roll-back of an agricultural vehicle on a sloped surface

An agricultural method for preventing roll-back of an agricultural vehicle may include receiving a roll-back prevention input from a speed setting device indicative of a command to increase the transmission speed of the hydrostatic transmission while a service brake of the agricultural vehicle is engaged. Further, the method may include adjusting a speed mapping for the speed setting device from a predetermined speed mapping to a roll-back speed mapping in response to the roll-back prevention input, with the roll-back speed mapping being associated with a reduced speed range. Additionally, the method may include determining a transmission control command associated with a current position of the speed setting device based on the roll-back speed mapping and controlling an operation of the hydrostatic transmission to adjust the transmission speed based at least in part on the transmission control command.
