system for detecting crop levels in an agricultural harvester and method for operating an agricultural harvester

摘要

it is in one aspect a system for detecting crop levels in an agricultural harvester which may include an elevator extending between a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the elevator is configured to carry harvested crops between the end proximal to the elevator and the distal end of the elevator. The system may also include a culture level sensor provided in operative association with the elevator. The crop level sensor may include a sensor body and a shovel, rotatably coupled to the sensor body so that the shovel is configured to rotate relative to the sensor body when a crop level of harvested crops carried by the elevator. exceeds a threshold culture.
