Abstract: Cable assemblies for providing electrical communication between hinged sections of an electronic device are described. The cable assemblies can include a cover that covers one or more cables that run through a hinge region of the electronic device. The cable and cover can be drawn over a mandrel of the hinge region. The cover and the portions of the mandrel can be visible to a user at the hinge region of the electronic device. The cover can be sufficiently rigid to guide a path of the cable and protect the cable from bending beyond a prescribed angle during rotation of the electronic device at the hinge region. The cover can also be sufficiently rigid to prevent ceasing or folding of the cover and the cable during rotation of the electronic device at the hinge region.

Abstract: A sugar cane harvester has a base cutter elevation control system that compensates for changes in terrain such as ruts, small hills, etc. by raising or lowering the base cutter. A forwardly positioned slipper assembly gives feedback as to upcoming changes in terrain. A sensor also monitors tire position as when the harvester sinks into soft spots, muddy spots and the like wherein base cutter position is adjusted to compensate for sinkage of the tires.

Abstract: A two-row sugar cane harvester utilizing a single crossing arm for conveying two rows of cane rearwardly, merging the two rows of cane and discharging the two rows of cane at laterally adjusted positions in relation to the path of travel of the harvester with the crossing arm including a laterally adjustable discharge mechanism enabling six-row heaps of sugar cane to be formed without rolling over the initial row. The crossing arm includes a unique powered sticker chain arrangement oriented in opposed relation to a non-powered roller chain for gripping and conveying the sugar cane stalks in relation to the harvester. The forward end of the harvester includes a novel arrangement of lower and upper pairs of scroll-type gathering and lifting devices and a novel cutting and shredding assembly for cutting and chopping the immature upper end portions of the sugar cane stalks.

Abstract: An attachment for a sugar cane harvester for gathering, severing and chopping or shredding the non-millable, immature top portions of a sugar cane stalk so that the remaining millable portion of the sugar cane stalk can be harvested by the sugar cane harvester in a conventional manner.
