The thesis is focused on the combine harvester in terms of noise and dust in the cabin, but also outside. The literature search is the basic data and concepts from areas combine harvesters, noise and dust. The actual measurements were carried out on the land at the four farmers. Measured the machines were different dates of manufacture. These are machines Fortschritt E 512 (1983), Fortschritt E 514 (1989), IH 2188 (1998) and Claas Avero 240 (2011). The results of measurement were graphically displayed and compared each other. The measured values were compared with the current legislation. These measurements showed that the noise does not just limit oldest machine. Dustiness been in this job for guidance only. Thanks dust measurements but we get a more complete view of the work environment in which the operator is exposed.

This diploma thesis deals with the evaluation of CLAAS TUCANO 440 and CLAAS TUCANO 450 combine harvesters for the harvest of cereals and winter rape. It evaluates problems in terms of losses, depending on grain humidity, quality of crushing and spreading plant residues. The thesis sets basic performance and is supplemented by a simple analysis of investment and operating costs. The methodology of the solution was based on own measurements, information obtained from the owner, literature and agricultural standards.

Yield monitors have become an indispensable part of precision agriculture systemsbecause of their ability to measure the yield variability. Accurate yield monitor data availabilityis essential for the assessment of farm practices. The current technology of measuring grainyields is prone to errors that can be attributed to mass flow variations caused by the mechanismswithin a grain combine. Because of throughput variations, there are doubts regarding thecorrelation between the mass flow measurement and the actual grain volume produced at aspecific location. Another inaccuracy observed in yield monitor data can be attributed to inexactcut-widths values entered by the machine operator.To effectively address these yield monitor errors, two crop mass flow sensing deviceswere developed and used to correct yield monitor data. The two quantities associated with cropmaterial mass flow that were sensed were tension on the feeder housing drive chain and thehydraulic pressure on the threshing cylinder's variable speed drive. Both sensing approacheswere capable of detecting zero mass flow conditions better than the traditional grain mass flowsensor. The alternative sensors also operate without being adversely affected by materialtransport delays. The feeder housing-based sensor was more sensitive to variations in cropmaterial throughput than the hydraulic pressure sensor. Crop mass flow is not a surrogate forgrain mass flow because of a weak relationship (R2 andlt; 0.60) between the two quantities. The cropmass flow signal does denote the location and magnitude of material throughput variations intothe combine. This delineation was used to redistribute grain mass flow by aligning grain andcrop mass flow transitions using sensor fusion techniques. Significant improvements (?? = 0.05)in yield distribution profile were found after the correction was applied.To address the cut-width entry error, a GIS-based post-processing algorithm wasdeveloped to calculate the true harvest area for each yield monitor data point. Based on theresults of this method, a combine operator can introduce yield calculation errors of 15%. Whenthese two correction methods applied to yield monitor data, the result is yield maps withdramatically improved yield estimates and enhanced spatial accuracy.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo analisar a influencia da configuração física do sistema de espalhamento de palha em colheitadeira de grãos na eficiência do espalhamento da palha, visando cobertura mais uniforme do solo de cultivo. Tal processo produzirá melhoramentos no próximo plantio, pois espalhamento mais uniforme de palha evita perdas de nutrientes do solo por incidência luz solar, assim como previne erosão hídrica e eólica. Para analisar a influencia dos parâmetros da configuração física do sistema espalhador de palha foram realizados testes alterando parâmetros como quantidade de pás, ângulo de pás, rotação dos rotores, diâmetro dos rotores, defletor central e vazão de material. Devido à importância econômica no cenário nacional e mundial, utilizou-se a cultura de soja e os testes foram realizados em laboratório seguindo as normas da Sociedade Americana de Engenheiros Agrícolas e Biológicos (ASAE). O trabalho visa fornecer dados que auxiliem designers no desenvolvimento de novos projetos de gerenciamento de resíduos, de modo que venham a aumentar a eficiência desses sistemas, contribuindo com o crescimento da agricultura em no país. Os resultados apontam que a geometria do defletor central apresenta o parâmetro de maior influencia na uniformidade de cobertura da palha ao solo. / The objective of this work is to analyze the influence of the physical configuration of the straw spread system in grain harvester on the efficiency of the straw spread, aiming at a more uniform coverage of the crop soil. This process will produce improvements in the next planting, because more uniform straw spread prevents soil nutrient losses by sunlight, as well as prevent water and wind erosion. In order to analyze the influence of the parameters of the physical configuration of the straw spreader system, tests were performed changing parameters such as blade quantity, blade angle, rotor rotation, rotor diameter, central deflector and material flow. Due to the economic importance in the national and world scenario, the soybean crop was used and the tests were carried out in laboratory according to the standards of the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers (ASAE). The work aims to provide data to assist designers in the development of new waste management projects, so that they will increase the efficiency of these systems, contributing to the growth of agriculture in the country. The results indicate that the geometry of the central baffle presents the parameter of greatest influence on the uniformity of covering of the straw to the soil.

The aim of this thesis was to compare the activity and quality of work of the combine harvester New Holland CR 9080 and John Deere 9880 STS at harvest of cereals and oilseed rape and their simple economic evaluation. The thesis was focused on comparing losses and influence of moisture of harvested crops on the size of the losses, on the quality of crushing and the spreading of plant residues.

Combine harvesters are used to gather plants from the field and separate them into the components of value, the grain and the straw. The optimal utilization of existing combine potential is an inevitable task to maximize harvest efficiency and hence to maximize profit. The only way to optimize the threshing and separation processes during harvest is to adjust the combine settings to existing conditions. Operating permanently at optimal harvest efficiency can only be achieved by an automatic control system. However, for reasons of transparency and due to lack of sensors, the approach in this thesis is a combined development of an interactive and an automatic control system for combine process optimization. The optimization of combine processes is a multi-dimensional and multi-objective optimization problem. The objectives of optimization are the harvest quality parameters. The decision variables, the parameters that can be modified, are the combine settings. Analytical optimization methods require the existence of a model that provides function values in dependence of defined input parameters. A comprehensive quantitative model for the input-output-behavior of the combine does not exist. Alternative optimization methods that handle multi-dimensional and multi-objective optimization problems can be found in the domain of Artificial Intelligence. In this work, knowledge acquisition was performed in order to obtain expert knowledge on combine process optimization. The result is a knowledge base with six adjustment matrices for different crop and combine types. The adjustment matrices contain problem oriented setting adjustment recommendations in order to solve single issues with quality parameters. A control algorithm has been developed that is also capable of solving multiple issues at the same time, utilizing the acquired expert knowledge. The basic principle to solve the given multi-objective optimization problem is a transformation into one-dimensional single-objective optimization problems which are solved iteratively. Several methods have been developed that are applied sequentially. In simulation, the average improvement from initial settings to optimized settings, achieved by the control algorithm, is between 34.5 % and 67.6 %. This demonstrates the good performance of the control algorithm.
