A system for an agricultural harvester system can include an elevator configured to receive a flow of a harvested material. A chain can have a first portion positioned above the elevator and a second portion positioned below the elevator. A sensor assembly can be positioned between the elevator and the second portion. The sensor assembly can have a field of view that is directed towards a top portion of the elevator and configured to generate a first set of data. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the sensor assembly. The computing system can be configured to receive the first set of data and generate an estimated weight of the harvested material based at least partially on the first set of data associated with the harvested material transferred along the elevator during a defined interval.

A chain and slat conveyor with first and second continuous chains and a plurality of slats. Each slat is connected to the first chain by a keyhole connection and to the second chain by a bolt or rivet which passes through a hole in the slat.

A grain conveyor chain for a harvesting vehicle includes a chain made of standard chain elements and multiple scoops. The scoops are fastened on the chain and the standard chain elements have inner plates, outer plates, pins, and/or sleeves, with each scoop being in direct contact with a standard chain element.

One describes a feed-belt (100) for a sugar-cane harvester, comprising first (1) and second (2) belts that substantially overlap each other and define a space for passage of cut cane between them (1, 2), the first and the second belts (1,2) exhibiting a substantially curved profile. The invention has the objective of providing a feed-belt (100) for a sugar-cane harvester that can be used for the processes of both harvesting cane for grinding and harvesting seedlings for plantation, also providing a decrease in the total weight of the machine, lower hydraulic power required for the feed assembly, a smaller number of hydraulic components and lower final cost of the machine, besides simplicity and lower maintenance cost.

A slat for use within a material moving system of an agricultural combine may include a connector web extending in a lengthwise direction of the slat between a first end and a second end and in a widthwise direction of the slat between a front side and a rear side of the slat. The connector web may also define an outer surface and an inner surface. The slat may also include a front wall extending outwardly from the outer surface of the connector web along the front side of the slat and a rear wall extending outwardly from the outer surface of the connector web along the rear side of the slat. Additionally, the slat may include one or more additional features for increasing the structural integrity of the slat and/or for enhancing the crop grabbing/gripping capabilities of the slat.

Apparatus, systems and methods are provided for monitoring yield while harvesting grain. Grain released from paddles on the clean grain elevator chain of a harvester contacts a flow sensor which reports the rate of grain flow through the clean grain elevator. In some embodiments a brush is mounted to the chain and disposed to clean the flow sensor surface. In other embodiments a bucket mounted to the clean grain elevator chain releases grain against the flow sensor at a rate dependent on a grain property.
