SELF-DETACHING SUPPORT FRAME SYSTEM FOR AN IMPLEMENT AND METHOD FOR USING THE SAME
A self-detaching support frame system for an implement designed to self-detach from a vehicle by actuation of a release handle located within arm reach of the driver is disclosed. The self-detaching support frame system for an implement allow the user to at least partially, preferably entirely, disengages the support frame assembly by activating a control, preferably a single control such as a handle located near the vehicle steering.
Stand of front loader, front loader, and work vehicle with supporting-time guiding hole
A stand of a front loader includes: a main body that is disposed on a boom and swings between a supporting position in which the main body supports a front loader and a storage position in which the main body is stored; a grounding-member swing shaft that is disposed on the main body and engages with the boom to hold the main body in the storage position; a swinging member swingably disposed on the boom; and an engagement lever disposed on the swinging member, wherein the main body has a guiding hole that guides the engagement lever to regulate a swinging range of the main body.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ALIGNING A CARRIER VEHICLE AND A SELECTIVELY ATTACHABLE IMPLEMENT
Carrier vehiclessuch as, for example, front loadersare configured to operated with one or more interchangeable implements that are selectively coupled to the carrier vehicle by driving the carrier vehicle towards a desired implement and aligning the implement attachment points with corresponding attachment points on an implement mount that is attached to the carrier vehicle. In some cases, the operator's view of the various attachment points (catch hook and support pins, rods, lines) of the implement and the implement mount is blocked by the front loader arms (booms) or other components of the carrier vehicle. Systems and methods are presented herein for aligning the carrier vehicle with the implement using marks/indicators that are visible by the operator of the carrier vehicle.
Attachment system for a work vehicle implement
An attachment system for a work vehicle implement includes an implement attachment assembly. The implement attachment assembly includes a support structure coupled to a receiver assembly. The support structure includes a first mounting feature configured to engage a first corresponding mounting feature extending downwardly from a bottom surface of a work vehicle, and a second mounting feature configured to engage a second corresponding mounting feature extending downwardly from the bottom surface of the work vehicle. The first and second mounting features of the support structure are spaced apart from one another along a longitudinal axis relative to a direction of travel of the work vehicle, and the first and second mounting features of the support structure are configured to substantially block horizontal and vertical movement of the support structure relative to the work vehicle via engagement with the first and second corresponding mounting features of the work vehicle.

Implement and a method for obtaining information related to said implement
An implement connectable to a work vehicle includes an arm, a fastening arrangement arranged at a first part of the arm, and an attaching arrangement. The fastening arrangement is connectable to the work vehicle an attaching arrangement is arranged at second part of the arm. The attaching arrangement is attachable to a tool. The implement further includes a second hydraulic circuit configured to carry hydraulic fluid to at least one second hydraulic function. The first hydraulic function comprises a lifting function and a local control element. The implement further includes at least one second sensor arranged to obtain sensor signals at least related to the lifting function, a local control element and a digital interface to the work vehicle. The control element is arranged to receive and process the received sensor signals so as to determine a load weight and to feed the determined load weight to the digital interface.

AGRICULTURE OPERATION MONITORING SYSTEM AND MONITORING METHOD
The present disclosure relates to an agriculture operation monitoring system comprises at least one implement adapted to be mounted to a work vehicle, a wireless communication element, and a data storage and processing system. The implement comprises one or a plurality of sensors arranged to obtain sensor signals related to at least one hydraulic function of the implement and a local control element. The local control element is arranged to receive sensor signals obtained by the at least one sensor, to determine at least one present setting related to an operational status of the implement based on the received sensor signals and to feed a status message related to the present setting to the wireless communication element. The wireless communication element is arranged to transmit the status message to the data storage and processing system or to at least one electronic user device.
LATCHING ARRANGEMENT FOR COUPLING A FRONT LOADER TO A WORK VEHICLE
A front loader includes a mast, and a mounting bracket that defines a channel configured to receive a mounting frame of a work vehicle. The front loader includes a latch disposed within the channel and pivotally coupled to the mounting bracket, and the latch is pivotable between a first, latched position configured to couple the mast to the mounting frame, and a second, unlatched position. The front loader includes a latching lever disposed within the channel and coupled to the latch. The latching lever is configured to move the latch between the first, latched position and the second, unlatched position based on a position of the mounting frame. The front loader includes an indicator lever coupled to the latch. The indicator lever is movable by the latch to indicate whether the latch is in the first, latched position or the second, unlatched position.
