  • Patent number: 11765995
    Abstract: A louver position sensing system for a sieve and chaffer of a combine harvester. One system provides that at least one sensor is in actual, physical contact with one or more louvers of the sieve and chaffer. Another system provides that a one or more magnet holders are mounted on louvers and, spaced away, sensors sense magnets in the magnet holders to determine the rotational position of the louvers. Either system allows for accurate, on-the-fly adjustment of the louvers in order to maximize the efficiency of operation of the sieve and chaffer. Preferably, the sensing systems are configured such that sensed position of the louvers is broadcast on the CAN bus of the combine harvester. As a result, the position information can be used to dynamically adjust the openings between the louvers of the sieve and chaffer to achieve more efficient grain cleaning as the machine and field variables change.

The simulation engine includes one or more simulation tools for performing one or more suggested simulations on a design. A user completes a design of an object via the design engine. The simulation suggestion engine automatically identifies one or more simulation tools that are appropriate for the completed design based on at least one characteristic of the design. The simulation suggestion engine automatically identifies and loads simulation parameters (boundary conditions) for the suggested simulation tools. The suggested simulation tools are then performed on the completed design via the simulation engine.
