  • Publication number: 20070233348
    Abstract: For controlling several agricultural machine systems during operation on a territory, based on a reference line, an optimized route for working the territory is determined for the particular machine system, and the particular machine system is driven along this route. The reference line is determined by recording a reference path that was driven along with a first machine system, and the first machine system is controlled based on this reference line with consideration for the working conditions of the first machine system. This reference line is also transmitted by the first machine system to at least one second machine system, which is controlled based on this reference line of the first machine system and with consideration for the working conditions of the second machine system. A corresponding control system for controlling several agricultural machine systems during operation of a territory is also described.

  • Publication number: 20050011727
    Abstract: An apparatus for transporting and rotating an article (G) has means for bearing the article (G) which are arranged in a bearing plane, and these means contain longitudinal and rotary conveyors (2, 2?). The conveyors (2, 2?) extend in the transporting direction (T) and are spaced apart at least more or less parallel to one another. They convey the article at different transporting speeds. The means (24, 25) have direction-dependent coefficients of friction in respect of the bearing plane, these coefficients of friction being greater, in particular, in the transporting direction (T) than those in a direction (S) which is perpendicular thereto, and runs in the bearing plane. The apparatus according to the invention thus allows straightforward rotation and transportation of articles, there being barely any need for the apparatus to be adapted to the shape and size of the articles.

  • Patent number: 6822634
    Abstract: A handheld control device of a system is coupled to a display screen comprising a number of lines. The device comprises a pushbutton for each line. The user can scroll through a series of possible contents of a line associated with a pushbutton, but only if the relevant pushbutton is depressed. Changing the contents of the line by the user thus becomes a coherent operation, so that the device will less readily respond to unintentional actuation of the controls.
