CUTTING UNIT HAVING SENSORS FOR HEIGHT CONTROL

The present invention relates to a cutting unit (2) for attachment to the height-adjustable intake duct (6) of a harvester (4). In order to improve the sensor-supported height guidance of cutting units, it is proposed to provide at least one additional load sensor (26) which measures the load (28) w...

Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a cutting unit (2) for attachment to the height-adjustable intake duct (6) of a harvester (4). In order to improve the sensor-supported height guidance of cutting units, it is proposed to provide at least one additional load sensor (26) which measures the load (28) with which the cutting unit (2) loads the intake duct (6), in order to calculate a height-control-relevant signal (32) from the transmitted sensor values (25) of the distance sensor (18) and the load sensor (26) via an evaluation device (24), which signal (32) is transmitted to the interface (34).
