Grapevine Soil-Cleaning Device and Engineering Machinery Provided Installed with Soil-Cleaning Device
20210120723 · 2021-04-29 ·

A grapevine soil-cleaning device and engineering machinery installed with the soil-cleaning device, comprising an air blower (4), an air vent direction reversal device, a soil-retaining device, an angular sensor (7) and a controller (19). The controller (19) is connected to the air blower (4), the angular sensor (7), the air vent direction reversal device and the soil-retaining device respectively. The present device achieves non-contact soil cleaning by blowing air, and has the advantages of no harmful impact on buds and branches, one-time cleaning, and highly efficient soil cleaning. The air vent direction reversal device may achieve a consistent air-blowing direction when the grapevine soil-cleaning device moves among rows of the grapevine. The soil-retaining device may hold back the blown soil and reduce the displacement distance of the blown soil. An auxiliary air pipe is provided below a main air pipe to assist soil-cleaning operations and avoid generating pits on a ridge due to concentrated wind power of the main air pipe. The air vent direction reversal, adjustment of the air power of the air blower and automated direction reversal of the soil-retaining device when moving among ridges are achieved by using the angular sensor (7) and the controller (19), thus achieving a high level of technological intelligence.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT DURING THE PERFORMANCE OF A TILLAGE OPERATION

A system for controlling an implement during a tillage operation may include a frame and a ground-engaging tool pivotally coupled to the frame and movable relative to the frame between a retracted position and an extended position. An actuator may be configured to bias the ground-engaging tool towards the extended position during the tillage operation. An adjustable valve may be configured to permit flow out of the actuator when a fluid pressure of the actuator exceeds a reset pressure such that the actuator allows the ground-engaging tool to pivot towards the retracted position. A controller may be configured to determine at least one of an actuator position or a load value indicative of a force applied by the ground-engaging tool against the soil during the tillage operation and adjust the reset pressure based on the at least one of the actuator position or the load value.
