  • Patent number: 10143133
    Abstract: There are provided an engine controlling section for controlling a rotational speed of an engine, a horizontal posture controlling section for rendering a vehicle body frame to a horizontal posture by controlling a posture changing mechanism configured to change a posture of the vehicle body frame by an operation of an actuator utilizing power from the engine, a yield measuring section for measuring a yield of grains stored in a grain tank based on measurement result of a load cell configured to measure a weight of the grain tank, an activation operational tool for outputting an activation signal for activating yield measurement by the yield measuring section, and a yield controlling section configured to provide the engine controlling section with a high speed rotation instruction for driving the engine at a rated rotational speed in response to the activation signal and also to provide the horizontal posture controlling section with a horizontal posture instruction for rendering the vehicle body frame to th

  • Patent number: 9974233
    Abstract: A harvesting machine includes: a crop tank; a measuring device that measures an amount of crop that has been stored in the crop tank; an unloader apparatus that discharges crop that has been stored in the crop tank; a device control part that executes precise measurement oriented device setting processing; a measurement control part including a precise measurement execution part that performs, precise measurement which involves the precise measurement oriented device setting processing, and a simplified measurement execution part that executes, simplified measurement; an operational instruction processing part that outputs a precise measurement instruction and a simplified measurement instruction in response to an operation performed by a manual operation device; and a measurement result recording part that rewrites a simplified measurement result recorded based on a preceding simplified measurement instruction, with a precise measurement result that is based on a succeeding precise measurement instruction.
