Definitions
- Sugarcane harvesters are large moveable agricultural machines that harvest and partially process sugarcane.
- a typical sugarcane harvester cuts sugarcane stalks from sugarcane plants as it moves through the plants, strips leaves from the sugarcane stalks, cuts the sugarcane stalks into billets, and ejects the leaves, stems, and other waste material back onto the sugarcane field where they act as fertilizers.
- a conventional sugarcane harvester includes basecutters with rotating blades that sever sugarcane stalks from sugarcane plants.
- the basecutters are ideally positioned close to the ground so as to capture as much of the sugarcane stalks as possible, but they should not be positioned too low or they will contact the ground when the harvester is driven over uneven surfaces.
- Other variables such as crop density and harvester speed may also affect the ideal basecutter height. Operators typically select and adjust the basecutter height before starting a harvesting operation, but it is difficult and time-consuming to change the height after harvesting has begun, so many operators select an unnecessarily high height to avoid unwanted ground contact.
- the present invention solves at least some of the above-described problems and related problems and provides a distinct advance in the art of sugarcane harvesters. More particularly, the present invention provides a sugarcane harvester that automatically calibrates an operational height of its basecutters before and/or during harvesting to achieve maximum cutting capabilities while avoiding unwanted ground contact.
- a sugarcane harvester constructed in accordance with an embodiment of the invention broadly comprises an intake and cutting assembly; a chopping section; a discharge assembly; and a height adjustment system.
- the height adjustment assembly automatically calibrates an operational height of the basecutters.
- the intake and cutting assembly cuts sugarcane stalks from sugarcane plants as the sugarcane harvester moves through the plants.
- the intake and cutting assembly may include a topper to cut off the leafy top portions of the sugarcane plants, one or more crop divider scrolls to divide and separate the sugarcane plants, one or more knockdown rollers to knock down the sugarcane plants, the above-described basecutters, and a feed section to feed the sugarcane stalks rearwardly to the chopping section.
- the basecutters include rotary blades operated by at least one hydraulic motor.
- the chopping section receives the sugarcane stalks from the intake and cutting assembly and chops or otherwise cuts the sugarcane stalks into billets.
- the chopping section includes blades or other chopping mechanisms operated by at least one hydraulic motor.
- the discharge assembly is positioned at or near the rear of the harvester and receives the sugarcane billets from the chopping section and then discharges the billets into a wagon or other storage vehicle that travels alongside the harvester.
- the discharge assembly may comprise elevators, conveyors, or the like that lift the billets to an elevated position and discharge the billets to a wagon or other storage vehicle or mechanism following the harvester.
- the discharge assembly includes at least one hydraulic motor for driving the elevators, conveyors, or the like.
- the harvester may also include one or more extractor fans or blowers that separate leaves, stems, and other crop residue from the billets and discharges the debris back into the sugarcane field.
- the height adjustment system calibrates an operational height of the basecutters to achieve maximum cutting capabilities while avoiding unwanted ground contact.
- An embodiment of the height adjustment system includes a height adjustment mechanism for raising or lowering the basecutters; a sensor that monitor operational aspects of the basecutters; and a processing system that receives signals from the sensor and calibrates an operational height of the basecutters in response to the sensor signals.
- the sensor includes a pressure sensor that monitors the hydrOaulic pressure associated with the basecutter motor. This monitored pressure is representative of the load on the basecutter motor. If the basecutters touch the ground, the load increases, and the pressure sensor readings spike. The processing system monitors this to determine a height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground as described below.
- the height adjustment system may include other sensors that directly or indirectly monitor the load of the basecutter motors to aid in the calibration.
- the height adjustment system may include a sensor to monitor the hydraulic pressure of the chopping section motor.
- the height adjustment system first lowers the basecutters toward the ground while monitoring an operational aspect of the basecutters.
- the monitored operational aspect is the hydraulic pressure of the basecutter motor as sensed by the basecutter motor pressure sensor.
- the processing system determines the basecutters have contacted the ground.
- the processing system then obtains and saves data representative of a height or setting of the basecutters when the basecutters contact the ground.
- This height data may represent a setting or position of the height adjustment mechanism.
- the processing system directs the height adjustment mechanism to again raise and lower the basecutters until they again strike the ground.
- the processing system then again obtains and saves data representative of the height or setting of the basecutters when they are in contact with the ground. These steps are repeated at least twice and preferably 3 - 5 times.
- the harvester may be moved forward or rearward after each raising/lowering cycle to compensate for any ground compaction or ruts caused by the basecutters striking the ground.
- Each raising/lowering cycle saves basecutter height data, with each set of data representative of the height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground.
- the processing system then calibrates the operational height of the basecutters based on this data.
- the processing system determines an average height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground and then selects the operational height of the basecutters to be a selected distance above this average height. For example, if the above raising/lowering cycles are repeated 4 times and result in ground contact heights of 1cm, 2cm, 2cm, and 1 cm, the processing system determines the average height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground is 1.5 cm.
- the processing system directs the height adjustment mechanism to position the basecutters at a height or setting of 6.5 cm, which positions the basecutters 5 cm above the ground.

- Fig. 2 is a block diagram of an exemplary height adjustment system for the sugarcane harvester.
- Fig. 3 is a flow diagram depicting exemplary steps in a method of the present invention and/or steps performed by a control system of the present invention.
- a sugarcane harvester 10 constructed in accordance with embodiments of the invention is illustrated. As explained in more detail below, the sugarcane harvester 10 automatically calibrates an operational height of its basecutters to achieve maximum cutting capabilities while avoiding unwanted ground contact.
- An embodiment of the sugarcane harvester broadly comprises a movable chassis
- sugarcane harvester 10 may have additional and/or different components.
- the chassis 14 has a forward end 21 and a rearward end 22 disposed along a longitudinal axis that is essentially parallel to a ground surface over which the harvester travels.
- the chassis 14 rides on wheels, belts, or other ground-engaging traction elements 24 that are driven by conventional motors, transmissions, and associated mechanical and electrical components.
- An operator’s station 26 may be supported on top the chassis, although the harvester may also include various sensors and controls that provide autonomous operation without direct operator control.
- the intake and cutting assembly 16 is supported on the forward end 21 of the chassis 14 for cutting sugarcane stalks from sugarcane plants as the sugarcane harvester moves through the plants.
- the intake and cutting assembly 16 may include a topper 27 to cut off the leafy top portions of the sugarcane plants, one or more crop divider scrolls 28 to divide and separate the sugarcane plants, one or more knockdown rollers to knock down the sugarcane plants, one or more basecutter assemblies 30 to sever sugarcane stalks from the sugarcane plants, and a feed section 32 to feed the sugarcane stalks rearwardly to the chopping section 18.
- the basecutter assemblies 30 include rotary blades or other cutting implements and at least one hydraulic motor 32 (Fig. 2) or other drive mechanism for rotating the blades.
- the basecutters 30 can be adjusted up or down by height adjustment mechanism 34 (Fig. 2) so the blades are any distance above the ground as described in more detail below.
- the chopping section 18 is supported between the forward and rearward ends of the chassis 14 and receives the sugarcane stalks from the intake and cutting assembly 16 and chops or otherwise cuts the sugarcane stalks into billets.
- the chopping section includes chopping blades and a hydraulic motor 36 (Fig. 2) for driving the chopping blades.
- the sugarcane harvester 10 also comprises an internal bin or other storage mechanism supported on the chassis 14 between the chopping section 18 and the discharge assembly 12 for storing a quantity of the billets before they are discharged from the harvester.
- the discharge assembly 20 is positioned at or near the rear of the harvester and receives the sugarcane billets from the chopping section 18 and discharges the billets into a wagon or other storage vehicle that travels alongside the harvester.
- the discharge assembly may comprise elevators, conveyors, and the like that receive the billets from the chopping section 18, elevate the billets, and discharge them from the harvester.
- the discharge assembly comprises at least one hydraulic motor 38 (Fig. 2) for driving the elevators or conveyors.
- the discharge assembly 20 may also comprise one or more extractor fans 40 or blowers that direct pressurized air over the billets to separate leaves, stems, and other crop residue from the billets and discharge the debris back into the sugarcane field.
- the sugarcane harvester also comprises a height adjustment system 42 that automatically calibrates an operational height of the basecutters 30 to achieve maximum cutting capabilities while avoiding unwanted ground contact.
- the height adjustment system 42 may be incorporated in a control system of the harvester or may be a stand-alone system.
- FIG. 2 An embodiment of the height adjustment system 42 is depicted in Fig. 2. and broadly includes the height adjustment mechanism 34; a sensor 44; and a processing system 46.
- the height adjustment system may also include conventional power and control circuits and relays and data transfer devices for sending and receiving data.
- the height adjustment mechanism 34 includes hydraulic motors, cylinders, or other mechanisms for raising or lowering the basecutters 30.
- the mechanism 34 may also include or be coupled with hydraulic valves, relays, actuators, or other control mechanisms that can be controlled by the processing system 46.
- the sensor 44 monitor an operational aspect of the basecutters 30 or other driven components of the harvester that are directly or indirectly proportional to a load on the basecutters.
- the sensor 44 includes a pressure sensor that monitors the hydraulic pressure associated with the basecutter motor 32. This monitored pressure is representative of the load on the basecutter motor. If the basecutters touch the ground, the load increases, and the pressure sensor readings spike. The processing system 46 monitors this to determine a height of the basecutters when they contact the ground.
- the height adjustment system may include other sensors that directly or indirectly monitor the load of the basecutters so as to calibrate the basecutter height adjustment.
- the system may include a sensor that monitors the hydraulic pressure of the chopping section motor.
- sensors that may be used to implement the functional aspects of the invention described herein and may be replaced with or supplemented with any other sensors that directly or indirectly monitor loads on the basecutters.
- the processing system 46 receives signals from the sensor 44 and calibrates an operational height of the basecutters to achieve maximum cutting capabilities while avoiding unwanted ground contact.
- the processing system may be any type of circuitry or other computing elements that are operable to receive signals from the sensor 44 and provide control and/or power signals to the height adjustment mechanism 34.
- the processing elements may be coupled with suitable relays, switches, and/or valves and may be programmed with logic or a number of routines, subroutines, applications, or instructions for performing the instructions described herein.
- the processing system 46 may also include or be coupled with communication elements for sending data to remote control devices and for receiving instructions from the remote devices.
- Fig 3 depicts exemplary steps in a method 300 of calibrating an operational height of the basecutters. These steps may be performed in any order and/or supplemented or replaced with other steps. Some of the steps may be implemented with the processing system 46 or another computing device.
- the processing system 46 first receives signals from the pressure sensor 44 to monitor the load on the basecutter motor 32 as depicted in step 302. The processing system then directs the height adjustment mechanism 34 to lower the basecutters as depicted in step 304. While the basecutters are being lowered, the processing system 46 continues to monitor the basecutter motor pressure as depicted in step 306.
- step 308 the processing system 46 determines if the basecutters have contacted the ground based on the basecutter motor pressure.
- the processing system detects ground contact when the hydraulic pressure spikes or exceeds a pre-determined threshold value.
- the threshold level may be fixed or variable and may be any value greater than an average motor pressure experienced while operating the harvester with no contact between the basecutters and the ground. A rapidly increasing pressure reading may also indicate ground contact.
- the method returns to steps 304 and 306 where the basecutters continue to be lowered and the basecutter motor pressure continues to be monitored.
- step 308 determines in step 308 that the basecutters have touched the ground
- the method continues to step 310 where the processing system 46 obtains and saves data representative of a height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground.
- This height data may be a setting or position of the height adjustment mechanism 34 or any other data that represents a position of the basecutters.
- step 312 determines if the desired number of raising/lowering cycles have been completed. If not, the method moves to steps 314 and 316, where the processing system 46 directs the height adjustment mechanism to raise the basecutters and then directs the harvester to move forward or backward to compensate for any ground compaction or ruts caused by the basecutter striking the ground. The processing system then repeats steps 302 - 312 until the desired number of raising/lowering cycles have been completed. These raising/lowering cycles repeated at least twice and preferably 3 - 5 times. [0039] Each time a raising/lowering cycle is completed, the processing system 40 obtains and saves data representative of the height of the basecutters when they contact the ground. Once the desired number of raising/lowering cycles are completed, the method proceeds to step 318 where the processing system 46 calibrates the operational height of the basecutter based on this data.
- the processing system 46 determine an average height or setting of the basecutters when they contact the ground and then selects the operational height to be a selected distance above this average height. For example, if the above raising/lowering cycles are repeated 4 times and result in ground contact heights of 1cm, 2cm, 2cm, and 1 cm, the processing system determines the average height or setting of the basecutter when the basecutter contacts the ground is 1.5 cm. If the desired operational height of the basecutters is 5 cm above the ground surface, the processing system 46 then directs the height adjustment mechanism to position the basecutters at a height or setting of 6.5 cm.
- the processing system determines a median height of the basecutters when they contact the ground to calibrate the operational height. In other embodiments, only one raising/lowering cycle is performed, and the processing system calibrates the operational height based on one height reading.
- the above calibration steps are preferably performed before a harvesting operation and may be repeated at intervals during a harvesting operation.
- the calibration step may also be performed whenever a sensor senses uneven ground on which the harvester operates.
- routines, subroutines, applications, or instructions may constitute either software (e.g., code embodied on a machine-readable medium or in a transmission signal) or hardware.
- routines, etc. are tangible units capable of performing certain operations and may be configured or arranged in a certain manner.

- the processing system may also comprise programmable logic or circuitry (e.g., as encompassed within a general-purpose processor or other programmable processor) that is temporarily configured by software to perform certain operations. It will be appreciated that the decision to implement the processing element as special purpose, in dedicated and permanently configured circuitry, or as general purpose (e.g., configured by software) may be driven by cost and time considerations.

- Computer hardware components such as communication elements, memory elements, processing elements, and the like, may provide information to, and receive information from, other computer hardware components. Accordingly, the described computer hardware components may be regarded as being communicatively coupled. Where multiple of such computer hardware components exist contemporaneously, communications may be achieved through signal transmission (e.g., over appropriate circuits and buses) that connect the computer hardware components. In embodiments in which multiple computer hardware components are configured or instantiated at different times, communications between such computer hardware components may be achieved, for example, through the storage and retrieval of information in memory structures to which the multiple computer hardware components have access. For example, one computer hardware component may perform an operation and store the output of that operation in a memory device to which it is communicatively coupled. A further computer hardware component may then, later, access the memory device to retrieve and process the stored output. Computer hardware components may also initiate communications with input or output devices, and may operate on a resource (e.g., a collection of information).
