  • Publication number: 20230397533
    Abstract: A combine harvester having a plurality of working units for performing a harvested material processing operation is disclosed. The plurality of working units comprise at least one separator and one cleaning device. A grain loss sensor may be present in one or both of the separator or the cleaning device. The combine harvester comprises a driver assistance system, which comprises a grain loss sensor setting assistant configured to determine and to set the grain loss sensor sensitivity of the grain loss sensor(s) of the separator and/or the cleaning device. The grain loss sensor setting assistant may determine in a dialog with an operator the grain loss sensor sensitivity to be set for the grain loss sensor(s).

  • Patent number: 11304367
    Abstract: An agricultural working machine with a driver assistance system is disclosed. The driver assistance system controls driving functions of the agricultural working machine and at least one working assembly of the agricultural working machine in the context of performing a work process. The driver assistance system accesses a set of rules in the form of control strategies to control the at least one work assembly according to a specific control strategy. The driver assistance system includes an interface to communicate with an external computer unit, which is remote from the agricultural working machine, and through which data can be exchanged between the driver assistance system and the external computer unit. For example, the driver assistance system receives data from the external computer unit via the interface during the work process of the agricultural working machine, and selects the control strategy for performing the work process based on the data.

  • Patent number: 11185005
    Abstract: A driver assistance system for controlling a combination of agricultural vehicles including a towing vehicle designed as a tractor and a mounted device, wherein the driver assistance system generates control parameters for the towing vehicle and/or for the mounted device. The driver assistance system has an input/output unit for the dialog with the user. The driver assistance system is formed by a rule interpreter which generates the control parameters by executing the rules of a set of rules, and the driver assistance system has a linking module which receives at least two sets of rules from different data sources and generates, on the basis of the received sets of rules and according to a linkage specification, the set of rules to be executed by the rule interpreter.

  • Publication number: 20190090423
    Abstract: A working machine, in particular a combine harvester, having multiple working elements for carrying out or assisting work, and a driver assistance system for controlling the working elements according to at least one processing strategy which can be specified by the operator and directed to the fulfillment of at least one quality criterion. The driver assistance system has a memory for storing data characterizing the processing strategy, a computing device for processing the data stored in the memory, and a graphical user interface. Competing quality criteria, weighted with respect to each other according to a weighting variable, are incorporated into the processing strategy. The weighting variable is visualized via a virtual control element of the graphical user interface and can be specified by the operator. The driver assistance system registers the strategy selection of the operator, predicts an optimization goal, and presents an optimization proposal for this predicted optimization goal.
