A mower combination including an agricultural vehicle and a number of mowing units suitable for cutting standing crop, including a front mowing unit and two lateral mowing units located behind and to the sides of the front mowing unit. Each of the lateral mowing units includes a conveyor to deposit cut crop as a swath. Sensors determine the slope and lateral displacement of each conveyor. A control unit receives inputs from the sensors and compares the inputs to a predetermined set of values of slope and, as indicated by the comparison, adjusts the lateral displacement of at least one conveyor.

In an agricultural harvester header for an agricultural vehicle including a frame, a reel attached to the frame and having a plurality of reel tine bars, a cutterbar attached to the frame and positioned beneath the reel, an actuator for moving the reel tine bars between a deployed position and a retracted position, a sensor for sensing a position of the cutterbar, and a computer, a method for returning the reel tine bars to the deployed position includes (i) receiving, at the computer, signals from the sensor, (ii) recording a sensed position of the cutterbar when the actuator moves the reel tine bars to the retracted position, and (iii) activating the actuator to return the reel tine bars to the deployed position as a function of when the cutterbar returns to the recorded sensed position.

A power-assisted working machine and mower. The mower includes a body including a traveling assembly and a drive motor for driving the traveling assembly; a handle device connected to the body and including an operating member, where the operating member includes a grip for a user to hold; and a connecting rod connected to the body. The mower further includes a motor parameter detection device configured to detect at least one of the rotor position and the working current of the drive motor; an angle detection device configured to detect an angle of inclination of a workplane of the mower relative to a horizontal plane; and a controller configured to estimate thrust applied to the handle device according to the rotor position and/or the working current and the angle of inclination.

Disclosed is a lifting assembly for a crop severing assembly forwardly carried by a tractor having a frame and front a frame and an axle assembly carrying front wheel assemblies. The crop severing assembly has a forward end and a rear end, and includes a pair of bracket assemblies located at the forward end and atop the crop severing assembly. A pair of lift cylinder assemblies each have a lower end and a top end. The lift cylinder lower ends are located at either side of the rear end of the crop severing assembly to bottom brackets extending from the tractor frame forward of the tractor axle assembly and are attached between each cylinder lower end and each cylinder top end to trunnions carried by the crop severing bracket assemblies for pivotally raising and lowering of the forward end of the crop severing assembly.

A device including at least one motorized conveyor for conveying a flow of harvested crop between an upstream end and a downstream end of the conveyor along a longitudinal direction. The device further including at least one sensor that monitors a longitudinal inclination of the device relative to a nominal orientation of the device. The device computes a conveyor speed based on the monitored longitudinal inclination, the conveyor speed being adapted to maintain conveying kinematics of the harvested crop independent from the longitudinal inclination; and the device operates the motorized conveyor at the computed conveyor speed.

A header positioning system for controlling a position of a header for a combine harvester. The header positioning system including a controller that is configured to receive signals corresponding to (i) a measured inclination of either the header or the combine, (ii) a measured ground speed of the header or the combine, and (iii) a measured height of the header with respect to ground. The controller is further configured to adjust a height and a pitch of the header as a function of the inclination, measured ground speed and the measured height.

A control lever of a working machine having a main operating frequency includes, a tube having a mass and a length extending from a first end to a second end. The tube defines a lumen extending from the second open end towards the first end of the tube. The control lever includes a rod having a predetermined mass and a length extending from a first end to a second end. The rod is fixed to the tube and is disposed in the lumen at a predetermined position with respect to the second end of the tube. In embodiments, the mass of the rod is determined based at least on the mass of the tube and the main operating frequency of the working machine, and the control lever has a natural frequency that is less than the main operating frequency of the working machine.

A Zero-turn lawn-mower that selectively restricts movement of front wheels to achieve controlled movement while on slope is disclosed herein. Lawn-mower includes a mower frame, at least one front wheel disposed underneath mower frame, at least one cam, an actuating rod and a dawg. The cam is fixedly connected to mower frame and in the vicinity of front wheel and is further defined with a notch. Actuating rod of said lawn mower is swivelably connected to mower frame and operable by a driver, typically by a rod pedal. Dawg extends from actuating rod to selectively engage with notch to restrict angular movement of front wheel and selectively disengage from notch to enable angular movement of front wheel. This provides the user to control drift of the mower on an angled or inclined surface. Furthermore, A spring is provided at other end of pedal to reduce tension and provide smooth rotation of actuation rod.
