Patent number: 7277784Abstract: The invention refers to a combination of a self-propelled harvester (32) and a transport vehicle (33), set up to accept crops from the harvester, which has at least one driven and at least one steered axle, wherein the transport vehicle (33) has an electronic control unit (38) which is set up to control the driven and the steered axle of the transport vehicle (33), and the control unit (38) is connected to a receiving unit which is set up to receive position data for the harvester (32) so that the control unit (38) can be operated to control the transport vehicle (33) to accept crops from the harvester (32) automatically with respect to a position of the harvester (32). The proposal is made that the control unit (38) be operable to automatically make the transport vehicle (32) drive parallel to the harvester (32) and to be docked to it so as to be able to accept crops from the harvester (32), and that the transport vehicle (33) be unmanned.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2003Date of Patent: October 2, 2007Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventor: Heinz Weiss

Patent number: 6698524Abstract: A hitch for coupling an implement to a utility vehicle includes adjustable length coupling elements and a pivotal coupling unit coupled thereto. A control system automatically controls the length of the coupling elements to control the direction of the line of action of the draft forces, the position of the towing point defined by the coupling unit, and the orientation of the Implement relative to the utility vehicle. The control system includes sensors for sensing the position of the implement relative to the vehicle, for determining a set of reference positions, and for sensing forces applied to the coupling elements. The control system also automatically controls the length of the coupling elements as a function of the sensor signals.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 2002Date of Patent: March 2, 2004Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventors: Gerd Bernhardt, Sergiy Fedotov, Ruslan Rudik, Heinz Weiss

Patent number: 6700267Abstract: A transverse flux drive includes a first component and a second component which is rotatable with respect to the first component. A pair of transverse flux motor units are coupled between the first and second components. Each motor unit includes a plurality of U-shaped armature elements which are coupled to the first component and which enclose an circumferentially extending exciter winding. Each motor unit also includes a plurality of permanent magnet pole elements coupled to the second component. The pole elements of one motor are axially movable to attenuate the magnetic flux coupling between the elements of the motor.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2002Date of Patent: March 2, 2004Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventor: Heinz Weiss

Patent number: 6688403Abstract: A hitch control system controls a hitch for coupling an implement to a utility vehicle. The hitch includes longitudinally adjustable coupling elements operable to shift or pivot the implement in a lateral direction relative to the utility vehicle. A sensor, such as a wheel steering angle sensor, senses a parameter associated with lateral or turning movements of the vehicle. A control unit automatically adjusts the length of the coupling elements as a function of the sensor signals so that the position of the implement relative to the vehicle is adapted to the curved path. This reduces the outer radius of the area over which the vehicle and implement travel when traveling along a curved path and helps avoid collisions with objects.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2002Date of Patent: February 10, 2004Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventors: Gerd Bernhardt, Sergiy Fedotov, Ruslan Rudik, Heinz Weiss

Patent number: 6681880Abstract: A control lever controls movement of a system to be controlled. The control lever includes a manually operable handgrip attached to a platform. At least six connecting elements are arranged between the platform and a fixed console. Length sensors sense the length of the connecting elements, and/or force sensors sense forces acting on the connecting elements. A control unit evaluates the sensor signals and generates a control signal for controlling movement of the system. The connecting elements are be arranged in the form of a hexapod. The connecting elements may be telescoping members or rigid fixed length members.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventors: Gerd Bernhardt, Sergiy Fedotov, Ruslan Rudik, Nicolai Tarasinski, Heinz Weiss, Matthias Lang, Jurgen Elser

Patent number: 6581695Abstract: A coupling system couples an implement to a utility vehicle, such as an agricultural or industrial vehicle, and includes a vehicle-mounted coupling frame and an implement-mounted coupling frame. The position of the vehicle-mounted coupling frame is adjustable by an adjustment mechanism. A position sensor senses the position of the implement-mounted coupling frame. An analysis unit determines the position of the implement-mounted coupling frame relative to the vehicle-mounted coupling frame. A control unit calculates a coupling motion path of the vehicle-mounted coupling frame. In response to a starting signal, the control unit causes the adjusting mechanism to move the vehicle-mounted coupling frame along the coupling motion path.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2002Date of Patent: June 24, 2003Assignee: Deere & CompanyInventors: Gerd Bernhardt, Sergiy Fedotov, Ruslan Rudik, Heinz Weiss
