COMBINE SIDE-SHAKE CLEANING CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A combine side-shaking control system (500) includes a sieve (202) for separating crop material from other materials and a movable side-shaking mechanism coupled to the sieve (202) and configured to move the sieve (202) in a side-to-side motion. The control system (500) also includes also includes first and second grain loss sensors (208, 210) configured to sense amounts of grain loss from separate portions of the sieve (202). The control system (500) further includes a controller (502) configured to: (i) receive a first grain loss value corresponding to the sensed first amount of grain loss and a second grain loss value corresponding to the sensed second amount of grain loss; and (ii) cause the side-shaking mechanism to control movement of the sieve (202) in the side-to-side motion based on at least one of the received first grain loss value and the received second grain loss value.
