At least one hydraulic device is associated with each arm. The hydraulic device comprises a hydraulic. The control and/or regulating system comprises a sensor device configured to detect a pressure change occurring at the respective hydraulic and a data processing unit configured to process signals of the sensor device and, on the basis thereof, to generate a control signal for the respective hydraulic device.

Provided is a chemical spraying device which can, even when a work vehicle travels on sloped work ground, rough roads or the like, spray a chemical onto crops onto which the chemical is to be sprayed, the spraying being performed without contact with the crops. A chemical spraying device capable of being mounted on a work vehicle is provided with: a chemical tank; chemical ejecting sections for ejecting a chemical supplied from the chemical tank; a plurality of first ejection support sections which have the chemical ejecting sections, extend in the top-bottom direction, and are oriented longitudinally; and a second ejection support section extending in the left-right direction from the chemical tank side and supporting the plurality of first ejection support sections. Each of the plurality of first ejection support sections is provided to be rockable about an axis extending in the front-rear direction relative to the second ejection support section.

An agricultural sprayer system is provided herein that can include a boom assembly having a frame and a boom arm operably coupled with the frame at one end portion thereof. Outer and inner nozzle assemblies can each be supported by the boom arm. The inner nozzle assembly is inboard of the outer nozzle assembly. A sensor can be operably coupled with the boom assembly and configured to capture data associated with the boom arm. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the sensor. The computing system can be configured to calculate a boom arm movement from a default axis based on the data from the sensor and regulate the outer and inner nozzle assemblies at differing flow rates when the movement exceeds a predefined range.

An agricultural sprayer system is provided herein that can include a boom assembly having a frame and a boom arm operably coupled with the frame. The boom arm can be rotatable relative to the frame between a plurality of angles in a fore-aft direction. An actuator operably can be coupled with the frame and the boom arm and configured to rotate the boom arm between the plurality of angles. A sensor can be operably coupled with the boom assembly and configured to capture data associated with a position of the boom assembly. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the sensor and configured to calculate a boom assembly deflection magnitude and a fore-aft deflection direction based on the data from the sensor and activate the actuator to rotate the boom arm relative to the frame when the magnitude of deflection deviates from a predefined threshold.

Described herein are systems, methods, and other techniques for damping oscillations of an implement of a vehicle while the vehicle is moving. Sensor data is captured using one or more sensors that are attached to the vehicle. The sensor data is analyzed to extract one or both of symmetric oscillation information or asymmetric oscillation information. One or both of a speed damping signal or a steering damping signal are generated based on analyzing the sensor data. The speed damping signal is generated in response to extracting the symmetric oscillation information and the steering damping signal is generated in response to extracting the asymmetric oscillation information. A movement of the vehicle is modified using one or both of the speed damping signal or the steering damping signal.

A control device for an agricultural application device which has an application boom pivotally mounted on a carrier, on which application components are arranged for applying liquid and/or solid active substances. The control device has a pressure supply connection and a return connection and a controllable valve arrangement and a hydraulic cylinder arrangement, which has a first cylinder effective area, connected to the valve arrangement and a second cylinder effective area, wherein the two cylinder effective areas can be pressurized and each are connected to a hydraulic accumulator, and wherein the pivot position of the application boom is variable by changing the switching state of the valve arrangement. In order to further develop the control device in such a way that the spring rate of the application boom can be decoupled from its pivot position, it is proposed according to the invention that the cylinder effective areas can be pressurized with a predeterminable pressure independent of the pivot position of the application boom. In addition, an agricultural application device having such a control device is proposed.
