A concave section for a harvester is provided. The concave section includes a first concave body. The first concave body includes a first leading end, a first trailing end, a first upstream side and a first downstream side. A width between the first upstream side and the second downstream side is no greater than 10 inches. The first concave body includes a first crop engagement face that extends between the first ends and the first sides. The first crop engagement face includes at least one of a first thresher profile portion and a first separator profile portion.

A threshing system for an agricultural harvester includes a rotor and a substantially cylindrical cage that surrounds at least a portion of the rotor. The threshing system also features a material flow adjustor for controlling axial movement of material through the cage. The material flow adjustor is movably mounted adjacent to a threshing space and includes at least one material conveying edge that enters the threshing space. The material flow adjustor is moveable between a first operative position, in which the at least one material conveying edge is spaced from the rotor in a radial direction by a first distance, and a second operative position in which the at least one material conveying edge is spaced from the rotor in the radial direction by a second distance, the second distance being less than the first distance.

A user device, that is remote from a combine harvester, receives setting information, indicative of a set of settings on the combine harvester. A display controller controls a display device on the remote computing system to display an interface showing the combine harvester settings, along with an adjustment actuator. A settings adjustment input is received through the settings adjustment actuator on the displayed interface. A settings adjustment message is generated, and a communication system on the remote computing system is controlled to send the settings adjustment message to the combine. A verification notification is received at the remote computing system, showing the adjusted settings on the combine.

A display controller controls a display device in a harvester to display an interface showing adjustments to combine harvester settings, received from a remote computing system, along with an adjustment actuator. A settings adjustment is made based on user actuation of the adjustment actuator input is received through the settings adjustment actuator on the displayed interface. A verification notification is sent to the remote computing system, showing the adjusted settings on the combine.

A concave assembly for an agricultural machine includes a frame pivotally connected to a structural component and a concave connected to the frame. The frame includes a trunnion having a front end and a rear end. A front arm and a rear arm are connected to the trunnion. A crossbar extends between the front arm and the rear arm. A rotating member rotatably connected to the crossbar. The concave includes a first outer support and a second outer support. An inner support is positioned between the first outer support and the second outer support. A plurality of separator bars extend between the first outer support and the second outer support.

A MOG limiting device, herein described as a MOG limiter, approximates a portion of the curvilinear length of a concave. The MOG limiting device can include a connection point near the middle of a concave, slightly offset from center. A bolt, washer and nut assembly protrudes downwardly from the underside of the concave. Two assemblies are positioned in the middle of each side of the concave. The assemblies cooperate with a mounting plate on the MOG limiters to form an upper concave connection and a lower concave connection in each half of the concave. In the cross frame, insert slots are positioned to receive a hinge point located at the end of each arced member making up the frame (rail supports). The hinge points are slidably inserted into the opening and then rotated upwardly to be positioned adjacent to and in conformity with the curvature of the underside of the concave with the connection assemblies holding the MOG limiter in place.

Methods and systems utilize multiple components to improve the threshing operation within an agricultural combine. The methods and systems include a unique concave design, open valley rasp bars, and restrictor plates. Application of the methods and systems' components allows more efficient threshing operations for large grains such as corn and, also, for small grains such as soybeans resulting in an increased capture and retention of seed from the threshing operation.
