The work machine (1.1, 1.2, 1.3) also includes at least one displaceable weight (5, 5.1, 5,2), which is arranged on the vehicle frame (12) by means of at least one rod system (11, 11.1, 11.2), wherein an exclusive movement channel (16.1, 16.2, 16.3, 16.4, 16.5, 16.6, 16.7, 16.8, 16.9, 16.10) along the vehicle longitudinal axis (14) is assigned to each of the displaceable weight(s) (5, 5.1, 5.2), the rod system(s) (11, 11.1, 11.2) and the pivot arms (6, 6.1, 6.2) with the working arms (7, 7.1, 7.2).

A boom mounting assembly for attachment to an agricultural machine is disclosed, which may comprise a primary frame, and a boom support frame configured to support a boom and being suspended from the primary frame to pivot in a transverse plane around a longitudinal axis of rotation provided in a pivot point. The boom support frame may comprise a first sub-frame connected to the primary frame; a second sub-frame supported by the first sub-frame in support sections provided on opposite sides of the pivot point in a transverse direction; and an actuator connected to the sub-frames and operable such that the support sections move relative to the pivot point to increase and decrease, in the transverse direction, a respective distance on opposite sides of the pivot point at the same time. Further, a method for controlling operation of a boom mounting assembly attached to an agricultural machine is provided.

A skip pan for handling materials comprising a base of the skip pan for containing the materials. A portion of a contour thereof has walls and a remainder of the contour is a wall-less edge. A bridge holds the base and comprises, at the top, a connecting portion for connecting to an arm of a material handler. The connecting portion is rotatable along a vertical axis thereof to provide a spinning movement to the skip pan. The connecting portion is tiltable by the arm of the material handler. An actuator provides an adaptable inclination of the base of the skip pan with respect to the bridge to keep the base balanced when the connecting portion is tilted to avoid contents to slide by the wall-less edge during movement.

A position/posture computing section determines that an azimuth of an upper swing structure calculated at a GNSS receiver is of low quality when at least one of a posture angle of the upper swing structure acquired at a machine-body IMU and a posture angle of a front work implement acquired at a boom IMU is equal to or larger than a threshold value, executes a bias removal computation on the basis of the quality of the azimuth and the azimuth of the upper swing structure calculated at the GNSS receiver, calculates a corrected azimuth of the upper swing structure on the basis of the azimuth of the upper swing structure calculated at the GNSS receiver, and an angular velocity of the upper swing structure from which a gyro bias has been removed, and computes a three-dimensional position and posture of the front work implement by using the corrected azimuth.

A dipper for a work machine is disclosed. The dipper may have a front cavity wall forming an inlet which defines a vertical inlet plane, a rear cavity wall opposite the front cavity wall forming an outlet which defines an outlet plane, a top cavity wall extending between front and rear cavity walls defining a horizontal top plane, a bottom cavity wall opposite the top cavity wall defining a bottom plane, and two side cavity walls. The two side cavity walls may further extend between the front and rear cavity wall. The outlet plane may be angled relative to the inlet plane, the bottom plane may be angled relative to the top plane, and the outlet plane is perpendicular to the bottom plane.
