A switching device for a transmission have a first and a second transmission housing portion. The switching device comprises a shift collar, a shift fork which engages in the shift collar, a control actuator which is arranged in the first transmission housing portion and an actuator rod which is connected at one end to the control actuator and at the other end to the shift fork. The actuator rod is supported in a first guiding hole which is formed in the first transmission housing portion. It is proposed that a second guiding hole which is formed in the first transmission housing portion parallel with the first guiding hole be formed and a guide rod which is orientated parallel with the actuator rod be provided and be connected at one end to the shift fork and at the other end be supported in the second guiding hole.

A rotary screen door assembly for a work vehicle includes a door configured to couple to an enclosure of the work vehicle for movement between a closed position and an open position, and a screen rotatably supported on the door and configured to filter air passing through an air inlet defined in the door. The rotary screen door assembly also includes a first shaft segment rotatably supported on the door and coupled to the screen, the first shaft segment having a first magnetic coupler configured to engage a corresponding second magnetic coupler of the work vehicle.

Systems, apparatus, and methods for tensioning systems of a drive belt are disclosed. Particularly, tensioning systems for a drive belt of a rotary screen of a harvester combine are disclosed. The tensioning system provides for avoiding over-tensioning the drive belt when the drive belt is disengaged from a drive shaft. The tensioning system may also provide for maintaining continuous operation of the drive shaft as the drive belt is moved between engagement and disengagement with the drive shaft.

An agricultural system includes a controller comprising a memory and a processor. The controller is configured to receive a sensor signal, determine a current flow based on the sensor signal, determine whether the current flow exceeds a current threshold for a time threshold, and operate a drive system of the agricultural system in an alternative operation instead of a normal operation in response to determining the current flow exceeds the current threshold for the time threshold.

A freely running sheave of a belt drive is supported on an angularly adjustable spindle for adjusting the angular orientation of the freely running sheave. The angular orientation of a spindle is changeable by a first wedge-shaped element and a second wedge-shaped element which each include a surface enclosing an acute angle relative to an orthogonal with respect to a longitudinal axis of the spindle. The wedge-shaped elements are flattened on opposite outer peripheral surfaces such that an open-end wrench can in each case be engaged therewith.

A pulley assembly is provided for mounting on a rotatable shaft of an agricultural harvester and is operable in a high-speed configuration or a low-speed configuration. The pulley assembly comprises a high-speed pulley with a high-speed running surface for receiving a drive belt when the pulley assembly is in the high-speed configuration and a low-speed pulley with a low-speed running surface for receiving a drive belt when the pulley assembly is in the low-speed configuration. The pulley assembly has three sets of teeth extending from surfaces of the two pulleys. In the low-speed configuration, the running surfaces of the low-speed pulley and high-speed pulley are axially aligned and the first set of teeth and the second set of teeth are engaged. In the high-speed configuration, the running surface of the high-speed pulley is exposed for receiving the drive belt.
