What changes for Renato

A new implement button on Set up AgOpenWeb from your measures (version 1.8): 3.2 m centre-pivot mower conditioner, the trailed mower he uses with the Farmall. This replaces #140.

  • Pressing it also presses Case IH Farmall 115C.
  • Measured by Renato: on the lower links, its swivel 0.5 m behind the rear axle (between the rear tyres), the wheels 6.5 m behind the swivel, the discs 2 m ahead of the wheels. Still assumed: 10 cm of overlap.
  • New field "Swing in the turn (°)" for any trailed implement: a centre-pivot implement swung against its tongue in the turn runs its axle on a wider circle, so the tongue folds less against the tractor. 0 = held straight (what every other button uses).
  • Tool offset 0: mowing back and forth, it swings to the uncut side, the other side of the tractor every pass (like the plough).

Results on the Farmall:

Held straight Swung 20° in the turn (guessed)
U-Turn radius 9.1 m (the tongue touches a tyre at 54.5°) 6.8 m (6.5 m tongue ÷ sin 75°)
Turn Keyhole, skip 4 Sagitta, skip 4
Headland 27.9 m (9 passes) 18.6 m (6 passes)
Distance from boundary 2.6 m 2.8 m

How the swing is counted: in a steady turn the axle runs at ra = L sin s + √(rh² − L² cos² s) from the centre (L the tongue, rh the hitch's radius, s the swing), and the step-by-step path swings the implement as far as the tongue folds, up to the field's value, back in line on a straight. A test checks that the path round a circle settles where the formula says (0°, 10°, 20°).

How to test

  1. Open the page after the merge (version 1.8 under the title).
  2. Press 3.2 m centre-pivot mower conditioner: the Farmall is pressed too, the hitch reads 0.5, the swing 20, the radius 6.8 m.
  3. Type 0 in "Swing in the turn": the radius goes to 9.1 m.
  4. Press 4 m disc harrow: the swing goes back to 0.

Checks run here: node Firmware/simulator/aow-settings/test.js (all passed), the changelog check, build.py and smoke-test.js ("Simulator pages OK").

A button for his 3.2 m trailed centre-pivot mower conditioner, used
with the Farmall: pressing it also presses the Farmall (a preset's new
`tractor` key). Measured: on the lower links, its swivel 0.5 m behind
the rear axle (between the tyres), the wheels 6.5 m behind the swivel,
the discs 2 m ahead of the wheels.

New field "Swing in the turn (°)": a centre-pivot implement swung
against its tongue in the turn runs its axle on a wider circle, so the
tongue folds less. steadyFoldDeg/steadyAxleRadius take the swing
(ra = L sin s + √(rh² − L² cos² s)) and sweep() swings the implement
as far as the tongue folds, up to that much; a test checks the path
settles where the formula says. The mower: held straight, the tongue
touches a tyre at 54.5° and needs 9.1 m; swung 20° (guessed), the
tongue ÷ sin 75° sets 6.8 m, Sagitta skip 4, 18.6 m headland.
Page version 1.8.
