  • Publication number: 20220386519
    Abstract: A tillage implement includes a frame, at least one sensor carried by the frame and configured to measure a property of soil, and at least one gang assembly carried by the frame and following the at least one sensor. Each gang assembly carries a plurality of disc blades. An adjustment mechanism is operable to change an operating parameter of the gang assembly responsive to the measured property of the soil. A method of working an agricultural field includes detecting a property of soil in the agricultural field using at least one sensor carried by a tillage implement and adjusting an operating parameter of at least one gang assembly carried by the tillage implement. The gang assembly follows the sensor as the tillage implement traverses the field. The operating parameter of the gang assembly is based at least in part on the property detected by the sensor.

  • Patent number: 10761711
    Abstract: A combine harvester comprises a storage bin for storing harvested crop, an unload conveyor, a flow gate for regulating a flow of harvested material from the storage bin to the unload conveyor, a first sensor for detecting a position of the flow gate and a second sensor for detecting a position of the unload conveyor. The harvester further comprises a controller configured to enable a user interface for receiving from an operator of the combine harvester a set point for the flow gate, an on/off indicator for the unload conveyor and an unload conveyor position indicator, presenting a graphic element including a graphical depiction of the unload conveyor, and indicating, using only graphical variations of the graphical depiction of the unload conveyor, a position of the unload conveyor, an operating status of the unload conveyor, the set point of the flow gate and the position of the flow gate.
