Filed:

Jan 29, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/162405

Inventors:

- New Holland PA, US
Stefano Fiorati - Ferrara, IT
Jason David Fox - Tucson AZ, US

Xin Tian - Lafayette IN, US

International Classification:

E02F 9/22

Abstract:

A system for controlling hydraulic fluid flow within a work vehicle includes a load sense valve configured to adjust the pressure of a bleed flow within a load sense conduit. Moreover, the system includes a computing system configured to determine the pressure of the hydraulic fluid within the fluid supply conduit downstream of the flow control valve based on the data captured by a pressure sensor. Furthermore, the computing device is configured to control an operation of the load sense valve to selectively adjust the pressure of the bleed flow within the load sense conduit based on the determined pressure.

International Classification:

G01N 33/24

Abstract:

In one aspect, a system for monitoring soil composition within a field may include a non-rotating ground-engaging tool configured to be pulled through soil within the field in a manner that performs an agricultural operation on the field. The non-rotating ground-engaging tool may, in turn, define a cavity therein, with the cavity including an opening. Furthermore, the system may include a sensor positioned within the cavity, with the sensor configured emit an output signal through the opening for reflection off of the soil within the field. The sensor may also be configured to detect the reflected output signal as a return signal, with a parameter of the return signal being indicative of a soil composition of the soil within the field.

Abstract:

In one aspect, a system for monitoring the frame levelness of an agricultural implement include first and second sensors configured to capture data indicative of a position differential defined between a soil surface and a portion of an a first and second ground engaging tool positioned below the soil surface, respectively. The captured data may be associated at least partially with the receipt of sensor signals reflected off of the portion of the associated ground engaging tool positioned below the soil surface. The system may also include a controller configured to determine penetration depths of the first and second ground engaging tools based on the captured data received from the first and second sensors, respectively. The controller may also be configured to monitor the frame levelness based on a penetration depth differential defined between the first and second penetration depths.

International Classification:

A01D 41/14
A01B 63/111

Abstract:

A method for automatically controlling a position of one or more ground engaging tools of an agricultural implement is relative to a ground surface may include monitoring a position signal indicative of a position of a ground engaging tool of the implement. The position signal may have an associated system delay time. The method also may include estimating an arrival time when the position of the ground engaging tool will be within a predetermined threshold of a target position based on the monitored position signal and the system delay time associated with the monitored position signal. The method may include adjusting the position of the ground engaging tool and terminating the adjustment of the ground engaging tool at a termination time determined based on the arrival time.
