A Panel for an Agricultural Vehicle and an Agricultural Vehicle having such a Panel
A panel for use on an agricultural vehicle, such as a combine harvester, used to cover a portion of the interior of the vehicle, and is formed from a flexible sheet material provided on a substantially rigid sub-frame. The flexible sheet material can be arranged to be easily opened or removed from the sub-frame, providing relatively easy access to the vehicle interior, combined with a relatively light-weight structure.

Agricultural working device
An agricultural working device, such as a mulcher, is improved with a working rotor which is driven by a drive shaft and a cutting rail with a cutting edge which can be directed towards the working rotor. Sensors for acquiring parameters of working rotor and/or cutting rail are provided. An electronic control apparatus is provided with at least one encoder to set the cutting rail. A method for setting the position of a cutting rail of a working device, such as a mulcher, relative to a working rotor, is configured in such a way that the rotational speed of a drive shaft and the rotational speed of the working rotor are measured and compared with one another. When a ratio of the rotational speeds differs by a predefined threshold, a change in the position of the cutting rail is brought about.
Self-moving device and automatic working system thereof
An automatic working system includes a self-moving device moving and working inside a defined working area and an energy module supplying power to the self-moving device. The self-moving device includes a body, a movement module, a task execution module, and a control module. The energy module is selectively configured to supply power to the self-moving device or another electric tool different from the self-moving device. The self-moving device includes an accommodating cavity provided with an inlet and configured to accommodate the energy module and a protective cover configured to operably block the inlet. The self-moving device further includes a drainage system configured to drain water to prevent water from entering the accommodating cavity.
Robotic work tool and a method for use in a robotic work tool comprising a lift/collision detection device
A robotic work tool having a chassis, a cover and a controller for controlling the operation of the robotic work tool. The robotic work tool further has a lift/collision detection device (300) connected to the controller for providing sensor input, and which Hft/coUision detection device (300) includes a first sensor element (340) and a second sensor element (345). The controller (110) is configured to receive sensor input of a distance value indicating a distance between the first sensor element (340) and the second sensor element (345), determine that a lift has been detected, fay comparing the distance value with a lift detection threshold and/or determine that a collision has been detected, by comparing the distance value with a collision detection threshold, wherein the collision detection threshold is different from the lift detection threshold.

REVERSIBLE COMPRESSION AUGER ON HARVESTING HEADER
A system and method for reversing a rotational direction of an auger of a header. The system includes a fluid line for delivering fluid to a motor that drives the auger. A directional flow control valve is connected to the fluid line and is movable between a first state in which the valve is configured to deliver the fluid to the motor in a first fluid direction to cause the motor to move the auger in a first rotational direction, and a second state in which the valve is configured to deliver the fluid to the motor in a second fluid direction that is different from the first fluid direction to cause the motor to move the auger in a second rotational direction that is opposite to the first rotational direction.
Mower path assistance system
A mower path assistance system to encircle an obstacle projecting from a ground surface, including a barrier mat formed with a barrier mat aperture enclosed by the barrier mat and having a barrier mat aperture diameter, a perimeter edge, and a barrier mat installation slit extending from the perimeter edge to the barrier mat aperture, wherein the barrier mat is deformable around the barrier mat installation slit to create a pathway having a pathway width through which the obstacle may pass from the perimeter to the barrier mat aperture. The barrier mat has a plurality of edges with axes that intersect at obtuse angles.
Rotating suction wand for a non-circular air screen
An agricultural equipment air screen cleaning assembly having a frame having an airflow opening having a non-circular outer perimeter, a screen mounted to the frame within the airflow opening and extending to the non-circular outer perimeter, a motor, and a suction wand operatively connected to the motor and located on an upstream side of the screen. The suction wand is rotatably connected about a rotation axis at a central region of the screen, and includes: at least one distal end that is movable in a radial direction with respect to the rotation axis to follow the non-circular outer perimeter as the suction wand rotates about the rotation axis, one or more inlet openings facing the screen, and an internal suction flow path in fluid connection with the one or more inlet openings, the suction flow path extending from a manifold to the distal end of the suction wand.
