Haymakers TRIZ Cases
- Sensor-Based Swathing Control for Forage Harvest Quality
Automated adjustment devices modify tractor speed and swath geometry based on real-time crop sensors to reduce crude ash levels.
- Belt Hay Rake with Oblique Conveying Area for Steep Slopes
A belt rake features an oblique conveying area that transports hay sideways while straightening lower layers down the slope.
- Hay Rake Arm Balancing via Hydraulic Cylinder Springs
Integrating elastic masses within the hydraulic cylinder assembly balances long rake arms, reducing system complexity while accommodating ground unevenness.
- Haymaking Machine Pivotable Outer Rake Rotors
Pivotable outer rake rotors fold upward to reduce vehicle length during transport.
- Foldable Hay Rake Pivot Arm and Dampener Design
Pivotal rake arms and a center kicker assembly resolve uneven terrain issues while an axle dampener prevents castor wheel wobbling.
- Horizontal Spring Hay Rake Arm Pivot
A horizontal spring floats rake arms to neutralize weight, while a hydraulic lift cylinder pivots them for compact transport.
- Variable-Frequency Electric Drive for Hay Rake Rotors
Segmenting the drive into independent electric motors eliminates heavy cardan shafts and gears, reducing machine weight.
- Tapered Windrower Merger Belt Support Structure
Segmenting the support structure height resolves the trade-off between low belt elevation for collection and large drive roll diameter for reliable engagement.
- Universal Rake Reversible Belt for Swath Versatility
A universal rake uses a reversible belt to form various swaths and working widths.
- Rotary Swather Rotor Overlap Control on Slopes
A rotary swather control device adjusts rotor positions based on steering angles to maintain consistent swath coverage.
