Embodiments of an intelligent power allocation system include a ground traction undercarriage controllable to propel a hybrid combine over terrain, a separator device configured to separate grain from other crop material ingested by the hybrid combine, a mechanical powertrain including an internal combustion engine, and an electric drive subsystem containing a rechargeable battery pack and a motor/generator (M/G). A controller architecture is configured to monitor a current separator load placed on the hybrid combine when driving movement of the separator device during active harvesting. The controller architecture further selectively places the intelligent power allocation system in a separator power splitting mode in which the M/G and the internal combustion engine concurrently drive movement of the separator device based, at least in part, on whether the current separator load exceeds an upper load threshold.

One or more information maps are obtained by an agricultural work machine. The one or more information maps map one or more agricultural characteristic values at different geographic locations of a field. An in-situ sensor on the agricultural work machine senses an agricultural characteristic as the agricultural work machine moves through the field. A predictive map generator generates a predictive map that predicts a predictive agricultural characteristic at different locations in the field based on a relationship between the values in the one or more information maps and the agricultural characteristic sensed by the in-situ sensor. The predictive map can be output and used in automated machine control.

A work vehicle including a floor (108), a forward pedal arm (41), a reverse pedal arm (51), a forward rotation shaft (42), and a reverse rotation shaft (52). The floor has a first insertion hole (108a) and a second insertion hole (108b). The forward pedal arm is placed in the first insertion hole and provided with a forward pedal (15). The reverse pedal arm is placed in the second insertion hole and provided with a reverse pedal (16). The forward rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the forward pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of a vehicle body of the work vehicle. The reverse rotation shaft serves as a rotation shaft of the reverse pedal arm, and is oriented so that an outer end thereof is directed toward the rear of the vehicle body.

A power transmission system is disclosed for infinitely variable speed capability. The power transmission system includes a pair of power units, each configured to deliver a rotational torque to drive an output element. A transmission arrangement receives the rotational torques from the power units and delivers a resulting torque to the output element. The transmission arrangement includes a gear set coupling the one power unit to the output element to deliver torque through a mechanical meshing engagement that is continuously effected between the first power unit and the output element.

In one aspect, an air intake system for supplying air to an engine of a work vehicle may include a cooler box having a first wall and a second wall, with the first and second walls at least partially defining a chamber within the cooler box. The air intake system may also include a screen defining at least a portion of the first wall of the cooler box. Furthermore, the air intake system may include an air filter assembly defining at least a portion of the second wall of the cooler box. The air filter assembly may be configured to remove particles present in the air exiting the chamber of the cooler box through the air filter assembly. The air exiting the cooler box through the air filter assembly may be supplied to the engine for combustion.

A prescribed feedrate of material through the mobile harvesting machine and an actual feedrate of material through the mobile harvesting machine are detected, and a feedrate difference between the prescribed feedrate and the actual feedrate is identified. Wheel slippage of the mobile harvesting machine is also detected. Based on the feedrate difference between the prescribed feedrate and the actual feedrate and based on the detected wheel slippage, a speed control signal that controls speed of the mobile harvesting machine is generated.

Disclosed is a harvesting combine rotor cage top cover assembly that includes an overhead roof formed from a substantially horizontal flat section and downwardly angled side sections. A series of substantially parallel vanes are located beneath the overhead roof. Each vane is formed from a substantially flat top section located against the roof horizontal flat section and downwardly laterally extending legs being angled on their sides and having an arcuate bottom. The sides of the vanes are rotatable about a central pivot for promoting or retarding the flow of material in the rotor cage.

A vehicle speed control system that controls a vehicle speed of an agricultural vehicle that performs work using a work device while traveling using a traveling device, the agricultural vehicle performs work travel a plurality of times with non-work travel interposed therebetween, the vehicle speed control system including: a control unit configured to perform work travel control in which a vehicle speed is set according to a load on a motive power source that drives the traveling device and the work device; and a storage unit in which a vehicle speed that is set during the work travel is stored as an optimum vehicle speed, the control unit performs initial work travel control in which a vehicle speed at a time when the work travel is started after the non-work travel is set using the optimum vehicle speed that is stored during the work travel performed before the non-work travel.

A tilt-sensing apparatus for a vehicle, comprising: a controller; and a motion tracker, wherein the controller is configured for communication with the motion tracker and a display, wherein the motion tracker is configured for attachment to a vehicle at a position remote to the display and comprises a first tilt sensor configured to measure a first tilt angle with respect to a first axis and a second tilt sensor configured to measure a second tilt angle with respect to a second axis, wherein the controller is configured to receive data via an output of the motion tracker, said data comprising the first tilt angle and the second tilt angle, and communicate an instruction to the display to display a graphical representation indicative of the first tilt angle and the second tilt angle, and associated method.

A brake assist system is disclosed for assisting the steering operations of a mobile vehicle. The brake assist system comprises a service brake assembly having a first brake device and a second brake device and an auxiliary control assembly coupled to the service brake assembly. An electronic control unit is communicatively coupled to the auxiliary control assembly and configured to receive an input signal indicative of a vehicle operating parameter comprising at least one of a steering angle generated by a vehicle guidance system or a vehicle speed error and generates a control signal to activate the main and secondary valve circuits by proportionally controlling an output of at least two control valves arranged in the main and secondary valve circuits to supply a pressurized flow of fluid is applied to at least one of the first or second brake devices to assist steering operations of the vehicle.
