A self-propelled harvesting machine includes a front harvesting attachment, a ground drive with first and second drive shafts offset relative to the front harvesting attachment, first and second track roller units to which first and second drive shafts are drivably connected and which extend on both sides of the harvesting machine and a rear axle having rear wheels that are steered via a steering mechanism provided in a rear region of the harvesting machine. The first and second drive shafts are driven by separate first and second hydraulic motors of a hydrostatic transmission. A displacement volume of each of the first and second hydraulic motors is changed depending on a steering movement transferred from the steering mechanism to the rear wheels, realizing an additional moment about a vertical axis of the harvesting machine simultaneously with the steering of the rear wheels.

The invention relates to a self-propelled harvesting machine comprising:—a removable harvesting unit (6) which can be mounted at the front in the direction of travel (F);—a processing unit in the interior; and—a harvested material conveyor channel (5) connecting said harvesting unit, when mounted, to the processing unit. According to the invention, the self-propelled harvesting machine is characterised in that a receiving space which at least partially receives said conveyor channel when in the harvesting mode can have its width adjusted transversely to the direction of travel.

An image acquisition device and image processing method for an agricultural harvesting operation machine. The agricultural harvesting operation machine comprises a body and an image acquisition device; the image acquisition device comprises an image capturing component and a communication machine; the image acquisition device is mounted on the body; the communication machine is communicatably connected to the image capturing component so as to obtain acquired image information from the image capturing component, thereby assisting in adjusting the working position and operation speed of the body. Also provided is an image processing method. Information required by harvesting operation is taken into full consideration, images of the position of an agricultural harvesting operation machine are acquired, and multiple acquired images are efficiently processed.

A self-propelled forage harvester is disclosed. The forage harvester includes a feed device, a chopping device comprising a cutterhead equipped with cutting blades and a shear bar for comminuting harvested material, a drive, and a driver assistance system for controlling at least the chopping device. The driver assistance system includes a memory for saving data and a computing device for processing the data saved in the memory, wherein the chopping device and the driver assistance system in combination form an automatic chopping system in that the computing device continuously determines a compaction of the comminuted harvested material using harvested material parameters during a harvesting process in order to autonomously ascertain and specify a cutting length to be adapted for maintaining nearly constant compactability.
