  • Patent number: 12181045
    Abstract: A tensioner assembly for tensioning a belt including a moveable arm, a first tensioner pulley mounted to the moveable arm, and a second tensioner pulley mounted to the moveable arm. In a first position of the moveable arm corresponding to a forward drive configuration, the first tensioner pulley is positioned in contact with the belt while the second tensioner pulley is spaced apart from the belt. In a second position of the moveable arm corresponding to a reverse drive configuration, the second tensioner pulley is positioned in contact with the belt while the first tensioner pulley is spaced apart from the belt.

  • Publication number: 20240215485
    Abstract: A header assembly for an agricultural vehicle includes a header having a lower surface and at least one gauge wheel assembly. The gauge wheel assembly includes a gauge wheel and a coupling mechanism coupling the gauge wheel to the header. The coupling mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder configured to selectively extend from a retracted configuration towards an extended configuration to urge a lower edge of the gauge wheel below and away from the lower surface of the header, and a biasing element arranged to bias the hydraulic cylinder to the retracted configuration.

  • Patent number: 11997954
    Abstract: A bale chamber includes: movable density doors; at least one fluid cylinder including a fluid chamber, a piston separating the fluid chamber into a piston side and a rod side, a cylinder rod coupled to the piston on the rod side and configured to move at least one of the density doors, a piston fluid port, and a rod fluid port; and a fluid supply circuit fluidly coupled to the fluid chamber and configured to supply working fluid to the fluid chamber, the fluid supply circuit including a fluid supply controller that is selectively switchable to a first fluid supply mode and a second fluid supply mode, the fluid supply circuit being configured to supply working fluid to only the piston side when in the first fluid supply mode and to supply working fluid to both the piston side and the rod side when in the second fluid supply mode.
