Patent number: 11882781Abstract: A control system for an implement hitch of an agricultural vehicle, wherein the hitch is mounted to the vehicle and includes one or more hydraulic cylinders or other actuators operable to raise and lower the hitch between minimum and maximum heights relative to the vehicle and hold the hitch static at one or more heights between the minimum and maximum heights. The control system includes a rocker control device having a first operating position and being movable in a first direction to a first limit position and in a second direction to a second limit position. An electronic control unit connected to the rocker control device is configured to control operation of the or each of the hydraulic cylinders or actuators and thereby control raising and lowering of the hitch in response to user operation of the rocker control device.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 2020Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: AGCO International GmbHInventors: Tobias Albrecht, Andreas Kämmerer, Gerhard Mariner, Peter Miller

Publication number: 20140291018Abstract: An electric cable includes at least one power line having first and second ends, including multiple cores. Each core has a core insulation. All core insulations are enclosed by a common sheath. The core insulations and the sheath each include a material which is selected, independently of one another, from silicones, perfluorocarbons, cross-linked polyolefins, mica, glass fibers, ceramic fibers, and mixtures thereof. A first plug connector is arranged on the first end of the power line, and at least one second plug connector is arranged on the second end of the power line. The plug connectors each include a flame retardant containing polyurethane. A first connecting nut is arranged on the first plug connector, and at least one second connecting nut is arranged on the second plug connector. The connecting nuts each include a perfluorocarbon. A method uses the electric cable as a control line for a welding device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2013Publication date: October 2, 2014Applicant: BALLUFF GMBHInventors: Michael MAYER-ROSA, Thomas BAYER, Andreas KAMMERER
