System and method for calibrating alignment of agricultural vehicles

摘要

A control system for an agricultural vehicle includes a controller configured to calibrate alignment of a conveyor outlet of the agricultural vehicle with a storage compartment by receiving a first signal from a user interface indicative of alignment of the conveyor outlet with a first desired point on the storage compartment, determining a first position of the storage compartment relative to the agricultural vehicle upon receiving the first signal, receiving a second signal from the user interface indicative of alignment of the conveyor outlet with a second desired point on the storage compartment, diagonally opposite the first desired point, determining a second position of the storage compartment relative to the agricultural vehicle upon receiving the second signal, and establishing a bounding rectangle having a first corner at the first desired point and a second corner at the second desired point based on the first position and the second position.

1. A control system for an agricultural vehicle, comprising:
a controller configured to:
receive a first signal from a user interface indicative of alignment of a conveyor outlet of the agricultural vehicle with a first point on a storage compartment;determine a first position of the storage compartment relative to the agricultural vehicle upon receiving the first signal;receive a second signal from the user interface indicative of alignment of the conveyor outlet with a second point on the storage compartment, diagonally opposite the first point;determine a second position of the storage compartment relative to the agricultural vehicle upon receiving the second signal;establish a bounding rectangle having a first corner at the first point and a second corner at the second point based on the first position and the second position;establish a target point within the bounding rectangle;output a third signal indicative of a third position of the first corner of the bounding rectangle relative to the storage compartment, a fourth position of the second corner of the bounding rectangle relative to the storage compartment, and a fifth position of the target point relative to the storage compartment; and control a product delivery system to engage product flow from the conveyor outlet to the storage compartment while the conveyor outlet is within the bounding rectangle or while the conveyor outlet is within a threshold range of the target point.
