Abstract: An agriculture machine assembly working in combination with an agricultural work machine and a disk mower adapted to the agricultural work machine is disclosed. The agriculture machine assembly comprises a driver assistance system that optimizes operation and includes a computing unit and an operating and display unit. One or both of the agricultural work machine or the disk mower include at least one control device for controlling and regulating one or both of the agricultural work machine or the disk mower. The driver assistance system is structured such that it forms a work machine setting device and a disk mower setting device, which optimize the operation of the agricultural work machine and the disk mower depending on each other.

Abstract: Harvesting device (10) of an agricultural harvesting machine, having a mower (11) for mowing harvested crops, having a conditioning apparatus (14) with conditioning rolls (15, 16) arranged downstream of the mower (11) for conditioning the mown harvested crops, having a transverse conveying apparatus (18) arranged downstream of the conditioning apparatus (14) for conveying the conditioned harvested crops, having a guide element (20) in order to transfer the conditioned harvested crops from the conditioning apparatus (15) onto the transverse conveying apparatus (18), wherein the guide element (20) is configured to be deflectable such that the guide element (20) adopts a position as a function of a harvested crop mass flow to be transferred from the conditioning apparatus (15) onto the transverse conveying apparatus (18).

Abstract: A more robust attachment member or pin is provided for use with farm implements that are attached to a farm vehicle by a quick hitch adapter. The attachment member includes an elongated member having a length and extending between a first end and a second end; and at least three surfaces extending longitudinally along a substantial portion of the elongated member between the first and second ends, the at least three surfaces having at least two different radii. Two of the surfaces are either generally flat or have a very large radius. Two other surfaces, disposed between the generally flat surfaces, have a smaller radius and the two other surfaces may have the same or different radii.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for impregnating a support matrix with solid and/or liquid compounds using a compressed gas or a compressed mixture of gases at densities ranging from 0.15 to 1.3 kg/l and at least two unsymmetrical pressure changes (pulsations). The method is further characterized in that both a multitude of impregnating substances such as biologically active compounds, technical materials or metal-organic compounds, as well as support matrices of biological origin and organic or inorganic substances can be used that have large inner surfaces and/or inner surfaces that are difficult to access.

Abstract: The invention relates to oil-free glycerophospholipid formulations which contain a homogeneous mixture of glycerophospholipids and an anhydrous, liquid polyol compound such as glycerol in a molar ratio of 1:0.1 to 1. These formulations are produced, eg, by extracting a starting material consisting of an oil-containing glycerophospholipid (mixture) and the polyol component with a compressed hydrocarbon (mixture) in a rectifying column. The oil-free formulation can be obtained from the melt at the bottom of the column in the form of free-flowing powder, which is ideally suited for stabilising oil-in-water emulsions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for the fractionation of wool wax acid mixtures by dissolving the starting material in a polar organic solvent (mixture). The dissolved wool wax acid mixture is treated at a temperature between -5 and 30.degree. C. and at a pressure between 10 and 70 bar with gaseous carbon dioxide and the hydroxy-fatty acids that accumulate as a solid are separated from the solution.
