Abstract

The harvesting method uses a number of harvesting machines which are controlled from a single remote-control point, with self-control of the guidance and/or processing of the harvested crop for each harvesting machine, e.g. using a global positioning navigation system. At least one of the harvesting machine may supply data to the mobile or stationary remote-control point, which can be used for control of further transport or servicing vehicles.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Ernteverfahren, bei dem mehrere Ernte­ maschinen einzeln oder im Verbund eine Erntefläche bearbeiten, wie dies im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1 angegeben ist.The invention relates to a harvesting method in which several harvests machine a harvesting area individually or in combination, such as this is specified in the preamble of claim 1.

Es sind Ernteverfahren, die insbesondere von Lohnunternehmen bei großen Ernteflächen durchgeführt werden, bekannt, bei denen meh­ rere Erntemaschinen entweder einzeln oder im Verbund die Ernte­ fläche bearbeiten. Dabei fahren mehrere Mähdrescher oder Feld­ häcksler hintereinander versetzt auf parallelen Bahnen, wobei zu je­ dem Mähdrescher oder Feldhäcksler ein Ladewagen oder dergleichen mitfährt oder herangefahren werden kann, um das geerntete Erntegut zu übernehmen.There are harvesting methods that are used especially by contractors large harvested areas are known, where meh harvesters either individually or in combination edit area. Several combine harvesters or fields are driving chopper staggered one behind the other on parallel tracks, each with the combine or forage harvester a loading wagon or the like drives along or can be brought up to the harvested crop to take over.

Zur Bedienung eines jeden Mähdreschers und zur Steuerung einer Zugmaschine für den Erntegutwagen ist jeweils eine Bedienperson erforderlich, so daß das Ernteverfahren an sich zwar bei großen Ernteflächen effektiv, nachteiligerweise jedoch personal- und damit kastenintensiv ist.To operate each combine and to control one The tractor for the harvest wagon is one operator each required, so that the harvesting process itself at large Effective harvesting areas, but disadvantageously in terms of personnel and therefore is box intensive.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Ernteverfahren anzugeben, das bei zumindest gleicher oder auch gesteigerter Effektivität gegenüber bisherigen Ernteverfahren den Einsatz von Bedienpersonen reduziert. The invention is therefore based on the object of a harvesting method to indicate that at least the same or also increased Effectiveness compared to previous harvesting methods Operators reduced.  

Diese Aufgabe ist durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches 1 ge­ löst.This object is ge by the features of claim 1 solves.

Der ferngesteuerte Einsatz der Erntemaschinen von einer Leitstelle aus hat den Vorteil, daß zumindest während der Bearbeitung der Erntefläche nicht die ganze Zeit über eine Bedienperson (Fahrer) für die jeweilige Erntemaschine erforderlich ist. So ist es denkbar, daß die Erntemaschinen, die die Ernteflächen bearbeiten sollen, von je­ weils einer Bedienperson von einem Abstellplatz oder dergleichen bis zu der Erntefläche (Feld) gefahren werden, wobei diese Fahrer da­ nach (also während des Erntevorganges) nicht mehr benötigt werden und weitere Aufgaben übernehmen können. Eine einzige oder auch eine geringere Anzahl von Bedienpersonen kann oder können nun die sich auf der Erntefläche, insbesondere am Rand, befindenden Ernte­ maschinen zu Beginn des Erntevorganges positionieren. Dazu werden die Erntemaschinen beispielsweise hintereinander versetzt auf parallelen Bahnen positioniert. Der Erntevorgang wird entweder von der Leitstelle aus während der gesamten Zeit gesteuert, wobei es auch denkbar ist, daß nur der Beginn des Erntevorganges von der Leitstelle aus gesteuert wird und sich die Erntemaschinen während des Erntevorganges auf der Erntefläche selber steuern. Denkbar ist auch, daß während der Selbststeuerung der Erntemaschinen ein ferngesteuerter Eingriff von der Leitstelle aus vorgenommen wird. Weiterhin ist denkbar, daß eine Erntemaschine, die vorne wegfährt, von der Leitstelle aus ferngesteuert wird, während die dahinter­ fahrenden Erntemaschinen von der vorne wegfahrenden Ernte­ maschine aus gesteuert werden oder sich an deren Bahnführung orientieren. Zu diesem Zweck sind die Erntemaschinen zu einem In­ formationsaustausch untereinander und/oder mit der Leitstelle ausge­ rüstet, wobei für den Fall, daß sich eine Erntemaschine oder meh­ rere oder alle Erntemaschinen selbst steuern, Einrichtungen für die Spurführung auf der Erntefläche und damit verbunden eine Lenk­ automatik vorhanden ist. The remote controlled use of the harvesting machines from a control center has the advantage that at least during the processing of the Harvest area not all the time for one operator (driver) for the particular harvester is required. So it is conceivable that the harvesting machines that are to work the harvested areas, each because of an operator from a parking space or the like to be driven to the harvested area (field), with these drivers there after (i.e. during the harvesting process) are no longer required and can take on other tasks. A single one or too a smaller number of operators can or can now harvest located on the harvested area, especially at the edge position the machines at the start of the harvesting process. To for example, the harvesters are moved one after the other positioned on parallel tracks. The harvesting process is either controlled from the control center throughout the time, taking it it is also conceivable that only the beginning of the harvesting process from the Control center is controlled from and the harvesting machines during control the harvesting process yourself on the harvested area. Is conceivable also that during self-control of the harvesters remote control intervention is carried out from the control center. It is also conceivable that a harvesting machine that moves away at the front is remotely controlled from the control center, while the one behind it moving harvesters from the front-moving harvest machine can be controlled from or on their web guide orientate. For this purpose, the harvesters are in one Exchange of information among themselves and / or with the control center equips, in the event that a harvester or meh Control all or all of the harvesting machines yourself, facilities for the Tracking on the harvesting area and associated steering automatic is present.  

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Leitstelle stationär oder mobil. Von einer stationären Leitstelle (beispielsweise der Standort des Lohnunternehmers) erfolgt dann ferngesteuert die Bewegung und auch die Überwachung des Erntevorganges der Erntemaschinen. Eine mobile Leitstelle ist beispielsweise auf einem Fahrzeug angeordnet, das insbesondere für den landwirtschaftlichen Einsatz geeignet ist. Von der Leitstelle, ob sie nun stationär und/oder mobil ist, werden die Erntemaschinen auf einer Erntefläche oder auch auf mehreren Ernteflächen, die weit auseinander liegen können, gesteuert. So können beispielsweise von einer stationären Leitstelle aus mehrere mobile Leitstellen Informationen erhalten und zurückgeben, in Abhängigkeit derer die mobilen Leitstellen jeweils die Erntemaschinen auf der einen Erntefläche steuern.In a further development of the invention, the control center is stationary or mobile. From a stationary control center (e.g. the location of the Contractor) the movement and then takes place remotely also monitoring the harvesting process of the harvesting machines. A mobile control center is on a vehicle, for example arranged that especially for agricultural use suitable is. From the control center, whether it is stationary and / or mobile is, the harvesters are on a harvested area or on several harvested areas that can be far apart, controlled. For example, from a stationary control center receive information from several mobile control centers and return, depending on which of the mobile control centers Control harvesting machines on one harvest area.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung werden die Erntemaschinen zumindest während der Bearbeitung der Erntefläche von der Leitstelle aus fern­ gesteuert. Hierbei kann beispielsweise die Bahnführung von der Leit­ stelle aus vorgegeben, überwacht und gegebenenfalls korrigiert wer­ den.In a further development of the invention, the harvesters are at least from the control center while working on the harvested area controlled. Here, for example, the web guide from the guide Issue, monitor and, if necessary, correct who the.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die Erntemaschinen zumindest während der Bearbeitung der Erntefläche hinsichtlich der Bahnfüh­ rung und/oder hinsichtlich der Bearbeitung des Erntegutes selbst­ steuerend. Dies hat den Vorteil, daß die Erntemaschinen unabhängig von der Leitstelle den Erntevorgang selbsttätig ausführen, wozu beispielsweise nur dann ein Eingriff von der Leitstelle vorgenommen wird, wenn vorgegebene Grenzwerte, zum Beispiel hinsichtlich von Ernteverlusten überschritten werden. Handelt es sich bei der Erntemaschine beispielsweise um einen Mähdrescher, ist dieser mit entsprechenden Mitteln und Einrichtungen versehen, die es zumindest in Abhängigkeit von der Fahrgeschwindigkeit, dem Zustand des Ernte­ gutes oder sonstigen Parametern gestatten, das Erntegut auf­ zunehmen und weitestgehend optimal zu verarbeiten.In a further development of the invention, the harvesting machines are at least during the processing of the harvested area with regard to the web guidance tion and / or the processing of the crop itself controlling. This has the advantage that the harvesters independent of the control center, the harvesting process automatically perform, for which only an intervention by the Control center is carried out when predetermined limit values for Example with regard to crop losses. For example, if the harvester is one Combine harvester, this is with appropriate means and Provide facilities that are at least in  Depends on the driving speed, the state of the harvest allow good or other parameters to open the crop increase and process as far as possible optimally.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung werden von der Leitstelle weitere Fahrzeuge, wie Erntegutwagen, Servicefahrzeuge oder dergleichen von einem beliebigen Ort zu einer Erntemaschine gesteuert oder um­ gekehrt. Auch hierdurch reduziert sich der Einsatz von Bedienperso­ nen, da im Falle von vorgegebenen Situationen von der Leitstelle wei­ tere Fahrzeuge zu den Erntemaschinen oder zu einer Erntemaschine gesteuert werden können. Diese weiteren Fahrzeuge können sich im Bereich des Standortes der Leitstelle (mobil oder stationär) oder an beliebigen weiteren Orten befinden. So kann beispielsweise, wenn es sich bei den Erntemaschinen um Feldhäcksler handelt, dann, wenn erkannt wurde, daß ein bei einem Feldhäcksler mitfahrender Häckselgutwagen voll ist, dieser von der Leitstelle aus zu einem anderen Ort auf der Erntefläche oder auch beispielsweise zu einem Abladeort gesteuert werden.In a further development of the invention, the control center provides further Vehicles such as harvest wagons, service vehicles or the like controlled or moved from anywhere to a harvester swept. This also reduces the use of operating personnel nen, because in the case of given situations knows from the control center more vehicles to the harvesters or to a harvester can be controlled. These other vehicles can be in the Area of the location of the control center (mobile or stationary) or at any other places. For example, if it is the harvesters are forage harvesters, if it was recognized that someone driving a forage harvester Chopper wagon is full, this from the control center to one another location on the harvested area or, for example, to one Unloading location can be controlled.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung erfolgt von zumindest einer Ernte­ maschine eine Datenübertragung an die Leitstelle, von wo aus ein weiterer Prozeß ausgelöst wird. Bisher wurde davon ausgegangen, daß beispielsweise das weitere Fahrzeug von der Leitstelle aus zu der Erntemaschine gesteuert wurde. Umgekehrt ist es aber auch von Vorteil, daß ein weiterer Prozeß von der Erntemaschine selber aus­ gelöst wird, um den Erntevorgang zügig und reibungslos zu gestalten. So ist es hier beispielweise denkbar, daß ein Mähdrescher eine sol­ che Einrichtung aufweist, die erkennt, daß der Korntank nahezu voll oder schon voll ist, wobei weiterhin eine Einrichtung zur Datenüber­ tragung an die Leitstelle vorgesehen ist, die diese Information an die Leitstelle weitergibt, von wo aus dann beispielsweise ein Erntegut­ wagen zur Entleerung des Korntankes des Mähdreschers zu diesem geschickt wird. Auch dies kann ferngesteuert oder durch Bedienpersonen erfolgen.In a further development of the invention, at least one harvest takes place machine transfers data to the control center, from where a further process is triggered. So far it was assumed that, for example, the other vehicle from the control center the harvester was controlled. Conversely, it is also from Advantage that another process from the harvester itself is solved in order to make the harvesting process quick and smooth. For example, it is conceivable that a combine harvester should have a sol che device that recognizes that the grain tank is almost full or is already full, whereby a device for data transfer continues Transfer to the control center is provided, which this information to the Control center passes on, from where, for example, a crop dare to empty the grain tank of the combine to this  is sent. This can also be done remotely or by operators respectively.

In Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird zumindest zur Bahnführung auf dem Feld ein Navigationssystem, insbesondere GPS (Global Positioning System), verwendet. So kann zumindest die Bahnführung auf dem Feld und auch die sonstige Bahnführung (beispielsweise auf den Straßen) unter Zuhilfenahme des Navigationssystemes ausge­ führt werden. Dies kann alternativ oder ergänzend zu der Fernsteue­ rung über die Leitstelle erfolgen. Weiterhin ist es denkbar, daß das Navigationssystem unterstützt wird von Bahnführungssensoren auf dem Feld beispielsweise zur Reihenerkennung (von Erntegutbestän­ den), von Straßenführungen oder dergleichen. Insbesondere für die Bahnführung auf Straßen ist es erforderlich, daß auch Ab­ standssensoren zur Erkennung von Hindernissen und/oder vorausfah­ renden Fahrzeugen vorhanden sind.In a development of the invention, at least for the web guidance a navigation system, in particular GPS (Global Positioning System). So at least the web guide in the field and also the other path guidance (for example on the streets) with the help of the navigation system leads. This can alternatively or in addition to the remote control via the control center. Furthermore, it is conceivable that the Navigation system is supported by path guidance sensors the field, for example, for row recognition (of crop stocks the), of road guides or the like. Especially for the Lane guidance on roads requires that Ab level sensors to detect obstacles and / or advance vehicles are available.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform ist darin zu sehen, daß die mehre­ ren Erntemaschinen von Bedienpersonen auf dem Feld positioniert werden, wobei dann diese Bedienpersonen zumindest während des Erntevorganges nicht mehr benötigt werden. Die Erntemaschine können sich dann selbst mittels geeigneter Einrichtungen über die Erntefläche steuern (Steuerung der Bahnführung und auch Steuerung des Ernteprozesses) und/oder von der Leitstelle aus ferngesteuert über die Erntefläche geführt werden. Ist die Erntefläche abgearbeitet, werden die Erntemaschinen angehalten und direkt danach oder auch zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt von den Bedienpersonen abgeholt und abgestellt oder zu einer weiteren Erntefläche gebracht.A preferred embodiment can be seen in the fact that the harvesting machines positioned by operators in the field be, then these operators at least during the Harvesting process are no longer required. The harvester can then use the appropriate facilities Control the harvesting area (control of the track guidance and also control the harvesting process) and / or remotely controlled from the control center be led over the harvested area. When the harvested area is finished, the harvesters are stopped and immediately afterwards or also picked up by the operators at a later date and parked or brought to another harvest area.

Eine weitere Ausführungsform des erfindungsgemäßen Ernteverfah­ rens ist darin zu sehen, daß von der Leitstelle aus, gegebenenfalls unter Zuhilfenahme des Navigationssystems, die Erntemaschine von einem beliebigen Ort oder von beliebigen Orten aus zu dem Ein­ satzort (Erntefläche) gesteuert werden, wobei es dann auch hier wie­ der denkbar ist, daß sich die Erntemaschinen selbst steuern und/oder von der Leitstelle aus ferngesteuert werden.Another embodiment of the harvesting method according to the invention rens can be seen in the fact that from the control center, if necessary with the help of the navigation system, the harvester from any place or from any place to the on  location (crop area) can be controlled, where it is also like here which is conceivable that the harvesters control themselves and / or be controlled remotely from the control center.
