METERING OF PRODUCT IN AN AIR CART ON HILLY TERRAIN

摘要

An air cart for use in an agricultural air seeding system includes at leastone tank forholding a material, and a metering system associated with the at least onetank. The meteringsystem is configured for metering the material from the at least one tank atan output rate. Asensor senses a parameter associated with an angular orientation of the aircart relative to areference plane, and provides an output signal indicative of the angularorientation. An actuatoradjusts an output rate of the metering system. A controller is coupled witheach of the actuatorand the sensor and receives the output signal from the sensor. The controlleris configured forcontrolling the actuator and thereby adjusting the output rate of the meteringsystem, dependentupon the output signal.
