EQUAL ANGLE HITCH

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for a hitch system that couples a vehicle to an implement powered by the vehicle using a driveshaft supplying power from a power output to the implement. The hitch system comprises a front portion and rear portion, with a mid-yaw pivot coupling the front and rear portions. The front portion couples to a drawbar engaged with the vehicle, and the rear portion couples with the implement. The mid-yaw pivot can be disposed substantially equidistant from a power output of the vehicle and a power input to the implement. This arrangement can provide, during operation, for the angle between the power output and driveshaft to be substantially equal to the angle between the power input and driveshaft. This may provide for improved performance in the implement, including reduced vibration, lower weight, and less maintenance.

TRACTOR AND METHOD FOR OPERATING A TRACTOR

A tractor with at least one lifting mechanism that has an upper link and lower links and actuators associated therewith, at least one attachment adapted to the lifting mechanism, and a driver assistance system is disclosed. The driver assistance system optimizes the operation of the tractor and has a computing unit, a memory unit and at least one input interface. The computing unit processes information generated by machine-internal sensor systems, external information, and information that may be saved in the memory unit. The tractor and/or the at least one attachment include a control device for controlling and regulating the tractor and the attachment. The driver assistance system comprises an automatic lifting mechanism that is configured to function based on characteristics, and to optimize adjustment of at least one work parameter of the tractor depending on selectable regulation strategies and/or optimization target variables saved in the memory unit.
