A work vehicle includes: a chassis; a first axle carried by the chassis; a pair of first wheels rotatably coupled to the first axle; a first weight sensor associated with the first axle and configured to output a first weight signal; a second axle carried by the chassis; a pair of second wheels rotatably coupled to the second axle; a second weight sensor associated with the second axle and configured to output a second weight signal; and a controller operatively coupled to the first and second weight sensors. The controller is configured to: receive the first and second weight signals; determine a weight distribution of the work vehicle based on the received first and second weight signals; analyze the determined weight distribution to determine at least one recommended operating parameter; and output a recommendation signal based on the at least one recommended operating parameter.

Ballast weight management system for a work vehicle

A work vehicle includes: a chassis; a cab comprising a frame carried by the chassis; a support structure carried by the chassis; a hitch system directly coupled to the support structure and including a pair of lift arms, each of the lift arms being pivotably coupled to the support structure; and an anti-roll system including an anti-roll bar coupled to the frame of the cab and directly coupled to the support structure such that the support structure simultaneously supports both the hitch system and the anti-roll system. A combined hitch and anti-roll system that includes the support structure, hitch system, and anti-roll system and may be removably mounted to a vehicle is also disclosed.

Agricultural tractor with combined support for hitch and anti-roll systems

A suspension system for a cab of an agricultural vehicle having a frame. The suspension system includes a pair of first mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a first region, a pair of second mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a second region, and a pair of actuators configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a third region. The actuators are configured for variably damping a movement of the cab. The suspension system also includes a first suspension linkage laterally connected in between the second mounts. The suspension system also includes a second suspension linkage configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a fourth region. The second suspension linkage is configured for limiting a rotation of the cab about the longitudinal axis of the frame.

Semi-active cab suspension for large agricultural vehicles

A method for assembling an agricultural vehicle including the initial step of providing the agricultural vehicle including a frame, a hydraulic manifold, and a cab suspension system. The cab suspension system includes an anti-roll bar, a pair of support brackets configured for securing the anti-roll bar to the frame, and a pair of intermediary placement brackets configured for temporarily supporting the anti-roll bar in a final assembly position. The method includes the further steps of attaching the intermediary placement brackets onto the frame, positioning the anti-roll bar on the intermediary placement brackets to position the anti-roll bar in the final assembly position, assembling the hydraulic manifold onto the frame, and connecting the support brackets to the frame and the anti-roll bar.
