An agricultural baler has a flywheel that is connected via a cardan coupling to a PTO of a tractor, the cardan coupling includes a torque-limiter adapted for disengaging the flywheel from the PTO when a predetermined torque is exceeded, wherein the cardan coupling further includes a transmission switchable between a startup state and a running state, in the startup state the transmission is configured to only partially transmit rotational movement of the PTO to the flywheel while in the running state the transmission is configured to fully transmit rotational movement of the PTO to the flywheel.

A working machine includes a traveling vehicle that is a first moving entity, a working device that is a second moving entity coupled to the first moving entity, and a sub battery loaded on the second moving entity to store an energy source to drive the traveling vehicle. Therefore, it is not necessary to newly provide a configuration to load the sub battery on the traveling vehicle, and a battery can be easily loaded. In a case where the traveling vehicle includes a main battery, the traveling and work can be continued according to a capacity of the sub battery without being stopped in order to charge the main battery that has a decreased remaining charge level.

A tractor includes a three-point link mechanism to which a work apparatus is to be attached so as to be able to move upward and downward, a hydraulic drive to perform a swing operation to swing the three-point link mechanism, a load receiver to swing in response to a tow load being applied from the work apparatus when the work apparatus performs ground work while being towed by the vehicle body, and a link mechanism to transmit an amount of operation for the swing operation to the hydraulic drive according to an amount of swing of the load receiver. The link mechanism includes, at a most upstream position, an interlocking swing arm to swing in conjunction with the swing of the load receiver about a swing axis that is different from a swing axis of the load receiver, the load receiver includes a first portion to press the interlocking swing arm that includes a second portion contactable with the first portion so to be pressed by the first portion, and a contact position of the first and second portions.

Skid-steer type power unit engageable with an implement using an attachment assembly including an attachment frame and a hitch. An arcuate frame member is located forwardly of the attachment frame and is engaged therewith in such a way that the frame member pivots about a vertical axis located forwardly of the frame member and generally centrally positioned relative to the attachment frame. The frame member pivots in response to actuation of a hydraulic cylinder. The power unit includes a system for transferring weight of the implement rearwardly onto the power unit. A belt-drive power-take off system on the power unit powers the implement's operation. An underbelly drop spreader is located between the front and rear wheels of the power unit and a brine delivery system distributes brine from nozzles located rearwardly of the rear wheels. A unique control panel permits operation of all systems on the power unit and implement.

An agricultural machine includes a controller disposed in communication with a work implement, an output, and an input. Left and right float cylinders are attached to and interconnected with a frame and left and right connecting arms. A desired operating condition from a plurality of predefined settings is then solicited from an operator via the input, wherein the desired operating condition corresponds to a designated pressure setting of the left and right float cylinders. The work implement is operated in a float mode of operation and then commanded to a raised position. The controller automatically determines a maximum pressure and a position that the maximum pressure corresponds to for the left and right float cylinders. The controller automatically modifies the designated pressure setting of the left and right float cylinders in the database based on the maximum pressure and position for each of the left and right float cylinders.

An agricultural train assembly having a tractor and at least one implement coupled to the tractor through a tongue. The assembly has a tractor braking system that selectively applies tractor brakes, an implement braking system that selectively applies implement brakes, a controller that selectively applies the implement braking system, a sensor that communicates with the controller to identify a push force applied to the tongue, the push force being the amount of force applied by the at least one implement towards the tractor. Wherein, the controller communicates with the sensor to identify the push force and compares the push force to a push threshold and when the push force is greater than the push threshold, the controller instructs the implement braking system to apply a burst braking procedure.
