CENTER PIVOT AGRICULTURAL PROCESSING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18150309 titled 'CENTER PIVOT AGRICULTURAL PROCESSING SYSTEM
The agricultural system described in the patent application includes a center pivot structure that establishes an axis of rotation, a beam extending radially outward from the center pivot structure to a moveable support structure, and a crop processing implement coupled to the beam for processing crops in the field while the system rotates.
- The system features a moveable support structure and beam that are rotatable about the axis of rotation.
- The crop processing implement is positioned between the center pivot structure and the moveable support structure.
- The crop processing implement can be powered by the same power source used for the drive motor of the moveable support structure.
- A center pivot irrigation system may also be included in the agricultural system.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in large-scale agricultural operations to efficiently process crops while irrigating fields. - It can improve crop processing efficiency and reduce labor costs in the agricultural industry.
Problems Solved: - The system addresses the need for a more efficient and automated way to process crops in the field. - It helps streamline agricultural operations by integrating crop processing and irrigation systems.
Benefits: - Increased efficiency in crop processing and irrigation. - Reduced labor costs and improved productivity in agricultural operations.
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Agricultural System for Crop Processing and Irrigation This technology can be commercialized for use in large farms, agricultural cooperatives, and agribusinesses to enhance crop processing efficiency and irrigation practices.
Prior Art: Further research can be conducted in the field of agricultural machinery and irrigation systems to explore similar technologies and innovations.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about the latest advancements in agricultural technology, crop processing equipment, and irrigation systems to enhance the efficiency and productivity of agricultural operations.
Questions about the Agricultural System: 1. How does the crop processing implement in this system improve efficiency in agricultural operations? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this innovative agricultural system?
Original Abstract Submitted
An agricultural system includes a center pivot structure establishing an axis of rotation, beam having coupled to the center pivot structure and extending radially outward to a moveable support structure. The moveable support structure and the beam are rotatable about the axis of rotation. A crop processing implement is coupled to the beam between the center pivot structure and the moveable support structure. The crop processing implement is operable to process the crop in the field while the moveable support structure and the beam rotate about the axis of rotation relative to the center pivot structure. The crop processing implement may be powered via the same power source used to power a drive motor of the moveable support structure. A center pivot irrigation system may also be included with the agricultural system.
