Work vehicle
The objective of the present invention is to provide a work vehicle where an operator can, on the work vehicle side, confirm which working machine is engaged and set which working machine to engage. A tractor, to which a working machine can be mounted, is provided with: a liquid crystal panel selectably displaying an engageable working machine mounted and displaying the currently engaged working machine so as to be identifiable; an operation unit (encoder dial, enter button, and command buttons) for carrying out selection and determination operations for the working machine displayed on the liquid crystal panel; and a control device that, when a determination operation is carried out by the operation unit for a desired working machine, disengages the currently engaged working machine, and configures the working machine for which the determination operation has been carried out to be engaged.

WORK VEHICLE
A machine body side control device is configured to control an actuator based on information on a posture change of a machine body obtained from a machine body side sensor and information on a position of an implement relative to the ground surface obtained from an implement side sensor via an implement side control device.

Harvester with adjustable row dividers
A harvester and associated method for adjusting a first row divider and a second row divider of the harvester, the first row divider having a first adjustable divider tip defining a first divider angle relative to a travel axis of the harvester and the second row divider having a second adjustable divider tip defining a second divider angle relative to the travel axis. The method includes detecting a turn of the harvester and activating at least one actuator to adjust the first divider angle by a first amount and the second divider angle by a second amount that is different from the first amount responsively to the detecting the turn.
Tillage Point Having Variable Ground Engaging Structure
The present invention provides a tillage point having a ground engaging structure configured to adjust with respect to the ground so that the tillage point can flexibly adapt to various field conditions. The ground engaging structure can comprise wings for increasing soil fracture below the ground surface and/or a cover board for moving soil along the ground surface. The ground engaging structure can variably adjust using an actuator, such as a hydraulic cylinder, connected to linkage which can move the ground engaging structure through multiple angles about a pivot point during tillage operations. In addition, a controller can adjust the actuator to maintain an angle of the ground engaging structure according to a location on a prescription map.
REAL TIME SURVEILLING OF AGRICULTURAL MACHINES
In one aspect, a system for surveilling agricultural machines can include an agricultural machine including a work vehicle having a cabin and being coupled to an agricultural implement. The system can also include an imaging system proximate the work vehicle. The imaging system can include at least two imaging devices configured to generate a plurality of images of the agricultural implement from at least two perspectives. The system can also include one or more processors configured to process the plurality of images to create a virtualized 3D view of the agricultural implement, and a display system within the cabin. The display system can be configured to display the virtualized 3D view of the agricultural implement.

Cutting head for vineyard and orchard tiller/cultivator
A tractor mounted tiller/cultivator system that includes right and left swing arms pivotally attached to tractor chassis, right and left cutting head assemblies mounted on the swing arms, each including a right disc motor driving a rotary disc mounted on a distal portion of the swing arm and operatively coupled to the motor. Ground-engaging cultivation wheels surround the rotary disc, and an annular guard prevents unwanted contact of the wheels with vines or trunks of vines and trees. A drive mechanism lowers and raises the swing arms to put the cultivation wheels into engagement and disengagement with ground and to rotate said swing arms about their longitudinal axes. User controls operatively connected to the swing arms, cutting head assemblies, and drive mechanisms enable a user to finely tune the movement of the cutting heads into and out from rows of trees or vines.
Two armed robotic system for adjusting the height of an agricultural tool
A robotic system for use in agriculture includes at least one tool-holding arm to hold an agricultural tool and capable of being controlled to enable the agricultural tool to be raised or lowered, a sensor for measuring the height of crops, and a computer to determine a set value for controlling the at least one tool-holding arm on the basis of measurements taken by the sensor for measuring the crop height. The tool-holding arm is connected to a connection member such that it can be mounted on a control arm provided on an agricultural vehicle. The computer can determine a set value for controlling the control arm to enable the tool-holding arm to be raised or lowered on the basis of measurements taken by the sensor for measuring the crop height.
