  • Patent number: 7137882
    Abstract: An agricultural harvesting machine includes a first rotating working member rotating about an axis; a non-rotating working member cooperatively associated with the first working member; and at least one releasable segment associated with the first rotating working member, forming an assembly and dismounting opening when the releasable segment is removed and wherein the assembly and dismounting opening creates an access to the non-rotating working member and additional adjacent working members.

  • Patent number: 7001267
    Abstract: For controlling a threshing mechanism of a combine harvester parameters of the threshing mechanism are adjusted with respect to a nominal crop throughput determined for corresponding harvesting conditions to an optimal value, the changing automatically and the adjustment includes automatically determining a deviation of an actual crop throughput from the nominal crop throughput, and adjusting at least one threshing mechanism parameter for adaptation to the actual crop throughput; also a combine harvester with the control device for performing the method is proposed.

  • Patent number: 6435966
    Abstract: A harvesting machine having a dividing device for dividing granular material from stem- or stalk-like material, and a separating device connected downstream of the dividing device, in which there is a conveying unit for conveying the stream of material from the dividing device to the separating device. In order to satisfactorily discharge the stem- or stalk-like material from the conveying tines of the conveying unit, cleaning elements are provided for cleaning away the material being conveyed over the free ends of the conveying tines.

  • Patent number: 6129629
    Abstract: The present invention describes an intake zone (4a) for an axial separator (4) consisting of a rotor (6) that is configured as a cone in its front area, is tapered in the direction of the flow of materials and has a sleeve (12, 13, 16) or an intake zone for a similar axial flow threshing and separating device having at least one similar separating rotor (6) arranged downstream from a single or multi-cylinder threshing machine with a feed cylinder (3) connected thereto. The upper sleeve (12) of the intake zone (4a) has a semi-circular cross-section at the beginning of the rotor intake continuously running as far as the end of the intake zone (20) into an eccentric cross-section corresponding to the cross-section of the remaining upper sleeve.

  • Patent number: 5469217
    Abstract: In an arrangement for converting an original picture signal representing a sequence of frames, each of which is composed of two interlaced fields, into a converted picture signal which has a double field frequency with respect to the original picture signal, is for doubling the field frequency, for the purpose of noise reduction, motion compensation and line flicker reduction, a memory arrangement (1, 2) provided for doubling the field frequency, which memory arrangement precedes a motion compensation arrangement (5) whose output signal is applied to a noise reduction arrangement (6), and a line flicker reduction arrangement (7) is provided which receives the output signals from the noise reduction arrangement (6) and the motion compensation arrangement (5), while the converted picture signal is obtained from the output signal of the noise reduction arrangement (6), the line flicker reduction arrangement (7) or the motion compensation arrangement (5), dependent on the position with respect to time of a field

  • Patent number: 4251472
    Abstract: A carburetor for combustion engines with a mixing chamber in the carburetor housing, the mixing chamber being bounded downstream by a randomly actuated mixture throttle and upstream by an air throttle controlling the intake air cross section and actuated by the pressure prevailing in the mixing chamber. A bypass air duct discharges into the center of the mixing chamber and receives the fuel supply. A nozzle pin cooperates with the air throttle and controls the cross section of a fuel jet. Downstream of this jet is another fuel jet whose cross section is controllable as a function of engine operating parameters by means of an analog magnet. The fuel jet controlled by the analog magnet may be the fuel outlet in the bypass air duct, and may be controlled by a nozzle pin through a lever via the analog magnet which is a plunger system. The second fuel jet may be located in a bypass air duct and its cross section may also be controlled by an analog magnet as a function of engine operating parameters.
