Detailed Description of the Invention
The invention is a yield monitoring system for the combine harvesters, wherein said system is applied to the combine harvesters to compile the data such as the mass, moisture, position (GPS) and speed in order to enable the formation of the yield maps based on said data and the transfer of said data via GPRS to the specified central servers. Said system is applied to a combine harvester, which is driven by a motor (1) and which is comprised by the storage (2), cabin (3), cutting header (4), drum-concave (5), stalk elevator (6) and grain elevator (7).
Figure 1 is a diagram of the monitoring system according to the invention illustrating the positioning of said system on a combine harvester. According to the figure, the magnetic sensor (9) is mounted to the elevator (6) of the combine harvester in order to monitor the speed (rotational speed) of the shaft inside the same. Owing to said rotational speed, it becomes possible to measure the speed losses of the combine harvester after beginning to reap. Thus, the speed of the elevator is monitored in a continuous and accurate manner.
By means of the opposing sensors (10) mounted to the body, the grains passing through the elevator (7) are monitored with respect to volume. Owing to the module (11), the density and moisture values of the grains within the storage (2) are monitored. The quantity and moisture values for the harvest are calculated using the data coming from the sensors (9, 10, 1 1). In the connection box (12), the data coming from these sensors (9, 10, 11) is provided with the format that allows communication with the Pc (15) via the electronic card present therein.
By means of the Pc and display module (15) present within the operator cabin (3), the incoming data are monitored. Using the GPS data coming via the antenna (16) integrated to said module (15), the data such as the moisture, weight and volume obtained from the sensors (9, 10, 11) are marked on the map shown on the display (15). The data as well as the constant information about the combine harvester (license plate, operator name) are sent to the previously determined server via the GPRS antenna (16) integrated to the module (15). Said GPS/GPRS antenna (16) may also be embedded in PC/Display module (15).
Owing to the fuel sensor (17) in the fuel tank, the instant fuel consumption and the total fuel consumption may be observed. Owing to the data coming from the angle gauge (18), it will be possible to monitor the angle between the cutter and the ground in the fields where the combine harvester operates. By means of the grain loss sensor set (19), the grain loss is measured within the crop harvested by the combine harvester. In case of receiving a signal that exceeds the limit from the sensors positioned at 4 points, the user is warned. By means of a thermal printer (14), the yield and Gps data from the Pc (15) may be transferred onto paper and provided to the farmer at the end of the operation.
By means of the autopilot module (13), the operator of the combine harvester may automatically direct the combine harvester owing to a servo motor that the operator activates whenever he wants. Here, the system, using the GPS data, ensures that a previously reaped line is not tracked again. The power of the system is supplied from the battery (8) present in the motor (1) on the combine harvester.
Figure 2 is a diagram of the monitoring system according to the invention illustrating the relations between the components of said system. The arrows in dark color indicate the flow of data, while the arrows in light color indicate the flow of power supply via the battery. As will be seen in the figure, there are present a connection box/control card (12) and the sensors (9, 10, 1 1), autopilot module (13), fuel sensor (17) and angle gauge (18) in communication with said box (12) powered by the battery (8).
The steps of operation of the combine harvester shown in Figure 1 are as follows:
The combine harvester is started; the monitoring system is started; the cutter length is entered as a numerical value in the monitoring system interface; the crop to be harvested is selected from the list (barley, wheat, etc.); the combine harvester system (drum (5), rocking elevator (6)) is provided with the rotation; the sensors (9, 10, 11 , 18) are checked with the provided rotation; in case an inoperative sensor is present, the machine is stopped and the sensor connections are checked; in case there is not any inoperative sensor, the cutting header (4) is lowered to the cutting height and the combine harvester is advanced to start harvesting; the designed card (12) performs the instant yield calculation with the information obtained from the laser sensor (10), speed reader and moisture sensor (1 1 ); since the speed information is shared, a warning signal is sent to the operator display in case the speed of advance is more than necessary in order to enable the combine harvester to return to the optimum speed; in case no information arrives from the laser even though the speed reading is performed, the interior of the elevator (6) is checked and cleaned; in case more signals are received than anticipated from the grain loss sensors (19), the speeds of the drum (5) and the fan are checked; when necessary, the advance speed, orientation and the operating hours of the combine harvester are changed; the reaping is continued once the ambience is prepared to enable the reaping at desired values.
The following process steps are performed for the operation seen in Figure 2:
Measuring with a magnetic sensor (9) the speed losses after the combine harvester starts to harvest,
by means of the sensor (10), monitoring the volume of the grains passing through the elevator (7), by means of the module (1 1), monitoring the density and moisture values of the grains in the storage (2),
calculating the quantity and the moisture values for the harvest using the data coming from said sensors (9, 10, 1) by means of the electronic card present in a connection box (12) and communicating with the Pc (15),
monitoring the incoming data by means of the Pc and display module (15), sending said data as well as the constant information about the combine harvester (license plate, operator name) to the previously determined server via the GPRS antenna (16) integrated to the module (15),
by means of the fuel sensor (17), monitoring the instant fuel consumption and the total fuel consumption,
owing to the data coming from the angle gauge (18), monitoring the angle between the cutter and the ground in the fields where the combine harvester operates,
automatically directing the combine harvester by means of the autopilot module (13),
using the GPS data, ensuring that a previously reaped line is not tracked again.
As will also be seen in Figure 2, the data acquired by said connection box (12) are sent to a PC display (15) or a thermal printer (14). The data received at said PC (15) may be delivered to another remote point by means of a GPS/GPRS antenna.
