A product system for an agricultural sprayer includes a product tank configured to store a volume of an agricultural product. A fill station is configured to accept the agricultural product from an off-board source. A flow assembly is fluidly coupled with the fill station and is configured to direct the agricultural product into a product tank from the conduit. A reclaim system is configured to provide the agricultural product within the flow assembly to the product tank. A computing system is communicatively coupled to the reclaim system. The computing system is configured to receive inputs indicative of activation of a fill mode, detect termination of the fill mode, and activate a reclaim mode to move the agricultural product from at least the conduit to the product tank through activation of the reclaim system.

A self-propelled forage harvester is disclosed that includes a blade sharpening and shear bar adjusting device, a monitoring device configured to cyclically generate information on the state of the cutterhead chopping glades and the distance of the shear bar to the cutting edge, and a control unit. The control unit evaluates the information provided by the monitoring device about the state of wear of the chopping blades and the distance, compares it with a limit value for the state of wear and/or the distance, where the limit value forms a lower limit for an optimum range to be maintained by the blade sharpening and shear bar adjusting device, of the instantaneous cutting sharpness of the chopping blades or of the distance and, when the limit value is reached, automatically triggers a sharpening process and/or of a shear bar adjustment by the blade sharpening and shear bar adjusting device.

A combine harvester includes a feederhouse mounted to a chassis adapted at a front end to support a crop gathering header, a duct mounted on the feederhouse that is connected to a crop conveying passage of the feederhouse via a set of suction openings, a set of vent openings in the duct, each of the vent openings having a respective closure element movable between an open position and a closed position, and a fan arranged within the duct that can be operated in a first direction to create a suction airflow to extract dust from the crop conveying passage and discharge the dust through the duct, and in a second direction to create a blowing airflow to open the closure elements and vent air through the vent openings.

A sensor arrangement for an agricultural vehicle includes a first electro-optical sensor including a first field of view having an optical axis, and a second electro-optical sensor including a second field of view having an optical axis. The first and second sensors are spaced apart from one another and oriented such that the optical axes of the two sensors intersect at a distance from the two sensors.

A detection system for an agricultural header includes a belt that has at least one physical feature driven by a roller at a roller rotational speed. The detection system also includes a sensor that detects a physical feature as it passes the sensor during rotation of the belt. The detection system further includes a controller that receives a signal indicating a first pulse of a first time a physical feature passes the sensor during the rotation of the belt and a second pulse of a second time a physical feature passes the sensor during the rotation of the belt. The controller further determines a pulse frequency based on the first and second times and calculates a belt rotational speed based on the pulse frequency. The controller compares the belt rotational speed to the roller rotational speed and provides an output if the roller rotational speed exceeds a threshold.

The disclosure relates to a crop merger system for a harvester. The system includes a frame, first and second rollers mounted to the frame, and a belt disposed over the first and second rollers. The system includes a motor operably coupled to and configured to rotate the second roller. The system includes a controller configured to electronically receive as input a desired speed of the belt. The system includes a sensor configured to detect a measured characteristic associated with the crop merger system, and electronically transmit the measured characteristic to the controller. The controller is configured to determine a measured speed of the belt based on the measured characteristic, and if the desired speed and the measured speed are unequal, the controller is configured to regulate the motor to adjust a speed of the belt to be substantially equal to the desired speed.

Method for operating an agricultural harvester (1), wherein the agricultural harvester (1) has an attachment (2), wherein the attachment (2) has a receiving conveyor (7) which is driven at a defined first speed, wherein the attachment (2) has a discharge conveyor (8) which is driven at a defined second speed, wherein the harvester (1) has an infeed unit (4) with infeed rollers (5, 6) which are driven at a defined third speed. The second speed, at which the discharge conveyor (8) is driven, is determined depending on the third speed, at which the infeed rollers (5, 6) are driven, and also depending on the speed of travel of the agricultural harvester (1).

Methods for autonomous operation of harvesters use header drive pump displacement, header speed, harvester ground speed, engine load and engine speed to control and maximize harvester operation under varying conditions such as crop type, crop condition and terrain. Adaptive learning processes within the methods relate the parameters of pump displacement with header speed and engine speed during harvester operation to permit the control system to establish combinations of related control parameters which are used by a control system to control harvester operation.

Relative to a gaming system, a jackpot or game win processing device and server are configured to receive acknowledgement from a player regarding a gaming win award, such as input to the game win processing device of a signature by the player to gaming win forms. In response, the server is configured to generate at least one gaming win reporting form, such as a W2G, to generate a security code from at least two elements of personal information regarding the player, such as obtained from a casino player tracking server, to then secure the at the least one reporting form and then email the secure form to the player.

An agricultural method for automatically controlling a position of a harvesting implement of an agricultural harvester, where the harvesting implement may be movably supported relative to a chassis of the agricultural harvester, and where a cab may be movably supported relative to the chassis, may include receiving inertial movement data from an implement-based inertial measurement unit (IMU) supported on the harvesting implement and inertial movement data from a vehicle-based IMU supported on at least one of the cab or the chassis of the agricultural harvester. The method may further include determining a relative movement parameter of the harvesting implement relative to the at least one of the cab or the chassis based at least in part on the inertial movement data. Additionally, the method may include controlling an operation of an implement actuator based at least in part on the relative movement parameter.
