An aerial vehicle includes a liquid chemical tank, at least one spray unit, at least one actuator, a plurality of sensors, and a processing unit. The processing unit is configured to determine an air movement direction relative to a projection of the fore-aft axis onto the ground and determine an air movement speed relative to the ground, the determination comprising utilization of the speed of the aerial vehicle, the air movement direction relative to the aerial vehicle with respect to the fore-aft axis of the aerial vehicle and the air movement speed relative to the aerial vehicle. The processing unit is configured to control at least one flying operation of the aerial vehicle and/or control the at least one actuator.

A work vehicle has display devices and cameras coupled to display feeds at display areas. The cameras include a first set on the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV and a second set on a first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV. A control system is configured to: in a first mode, display a first set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the first FOV; and in a second mode, display a second set of feeds from the first side, second side, and central location of the second set at display areas so that the feeds are arranged at the first side, second side, and central location relative to the second FOV.

An aerial vehicle includes a liquid chemical tank, at least one spray unit, a plurality of sensors, a processing unit, and an output unit. The processing unit is configured to generate a spray record for an environment within which the aerial vehicle is operating, the spray record comprising: information over a time period of at least one spray condition relating to one or more of the at least one spray unit for the aerial vehicle operating within the environment over the time period, the determined air movement direction relative to the projection of the fore-aft axis onto the ground over the time period, and the determined air movement speed relative to the ground over the time period. The output unit is configured to output the spray record.

A system for controlling a ground speed of an agricultural sprayer includes a speed setting device for commanding a selected ground speed of the sprayer when operating within a speed-range mode associated with a ground speed range. The speed setting device is movable across a plurality of positions, with each position being associated with a different ground speed within the ground speed range. A maximum range speed of the ground speed range is lower than a maximum ground speed of the sprayer. As such, the system includes a speed override input device for commanding that the ground speed of the sprayer be increased to the maximum ground speed. When an override input is received from the speed override input device, the computing system controls the operation of a sprayer drive system to increase the ground speed of the sprayer from the selected ground speed to the maximum ground speed.

A method and arrangement for operating an agricultural distribution vehicle with a tank for a liquid to be applied, a boom with spray nozzles attached thereto for distributing the liquid on a surface and a chassis supported on the ground which is movable in a forward direction over the surface. The method includes refilling the contents of the tank via an aerial vehicle.

A device (10) for transferring a liquid from a can to a tank in a sealed manner, the device including a drawing end-piece which comprises a main sleeve designed to be connected on the neck of the can in a sealed manner, a drawing pipe which presents a first end connected on the drawing end-piece and a second end adapted to be connected on the tank in order to enable the drawing of the liquid from the can to the tank, and a rinsing pipe which presents a first end connected on the drawing end-piece and a second end adapted to be connected on a supply source of a rinsing fluid, in order to inject said rinsing fluid in the can, where the drawing end-piece includes a rinsing hose which is connected on the first end of the rinsing pipe and which is slidably mounted axially along the drawing axis in order to rinse the inner walls of the can.

An agricultural sprayer includes a purge tank, a nozzle configured to dispense an agricultural fluid onto an underlying field, and a downstream valve configured to selectively permit the air from the main fluid conduit to flow to the nozzle. A computing system is configured to initiate a purging operation to purge the agricultural fluid present within the nozzle and, upon receipt of the input, control an operation of a main valve such that the main valve is moved to an opened position to allow the air to flow through a main fluid conduit. In addition, the computing system is configured to monitor a first air pressure associated with the purge tank and a second air pressure associated with the nozzle. Furthermore, the computing system is configured to control an operation of the downstream valve during the purging operation based on the monitored first and second air pressures.

Connectors and methods for contactless transfer of fluid between containers are disclosed. According to an aspect, a connector includes a body that defines a first end, a second end, and a passageway that extends between the first end and the second end, wherein the first end and second end are configured to attach to a first container and a second container, respectively. The passageway provides a pathway between the first and second containers when the first and second containers are attached to the first and second ends, respectively. Further, the connector includes an opener configured to engage and open the first container for release of a fluid from within the first container through the passageway and into the second container when the first and second containers are attached to the first and second ends, respectively.

Disclosed herein is a multipurpose water tank having an improved filtering function. The multipurpose water tank having an improved filtering function includes: an opening and closing cover configured to selectively open and close an opening portion formed in the top of the water tank; an accommodation space provided inside the water tank; a water introduction means provided on the upper portion of the water tank, and configured to filter agricultural water to be introduced into the water tank; and a pest control fluid introduction means provided on the side surface of the water tank, and configured to, when a pest control fluid is introduced into the water tank, filter out impurities included in the pest control fluid and then introduce the filtered pest control fluid into the water tank.
