AN AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT, A COMPUTER PROGRAM, A COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM AND A METHOD FOR DETECTING ABNORMAL PRODUCT FLOW IN SUCH AN AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT

摘要

The disclosure relates to a method, performed by a control device (100), for detecting abnormal product flow in an agricultural implement (1) comprising a feed system (10) for an agricultural product (5). The feed system (10) comprises: a first flow path (12); an air flow generating unit (14) arranged in fluid communication with the first flow path (12); a primary metering device (16) arranged to provide the agricultural product (5) to the air flow in the first flow path (12); and at least one distribution unit (20). The at least one distribution unit (20) comprises at least two outlets (22), each connected to a separate duct (24) for conveying the agricultural product (5) to the ground. The feed system (10) comprises sensor units (30) arranged in at least two ducts (24). The method comprises: determining (s110) a static pressure in each of the at least two ducts (24) based on signals from the sensor units (30); and comparing (s120) the determined static pressures to detect whether any of the at least two ducts (24) has a deviating static pressure, indicating an abnormal product flow in said duct (24). The disclosure further relates to a computer program (P), a computer-readable medium and an agricultural implement (1).
