Full Load Design Review
2003 -2004 Full Load E-Team • • Seth Elkington – agricultural engineer Matt Hess – electrical engineer Ty Windhorst - business, marketing Chris Jensen – mechanical engineer Veronica Meyer – mechanical engineer Matt Shewmaker – mechanical engineer Ian Toevs – agricultural engineer Dr. Donald Elger – mentor, Professor of Mechanical Engineering • Dr. Linda Morris – mentor, Professor of Marketing
Project Background • Situation • Existing Product/Sugarbeet harvest • Existing Technology • Complaints of Farmers
Situation For tuber and sugarbeet crops: • Simultaneous harvesting and loading • Trucks are required to make position changes relative to combine to fill uniformly • Truck and combine operators rely on hand signals to communicate specific actions relating to the proper loading
Existing Product/Sugar Beet Harvest
Existing Technology • Hand signals • Two-way radios • Home built signaling systems
View from 10 and 18 Wheelers
View from Digger
Goal • Build an affordable, practical, and versatile communication device usable on farms of any size • Product will be easy to use and manufacture • Product will improve both the safety and convenience of harvesting crops
Product Specifications This product will: • Continually relay position information from the harvester operator to the truck driver(s) • Ensure that the truck is positioned for proper loading • Be competitive with existing technology. The final outcome will be to form a corporation which will manage the manufactured product to be sold to the mass market.
Design Issues/Alternatives • Mounting • Input/Output Interfaces • Multiple Frequency • Electronic Design • Cost Competitive
Mounting in the Tractor
Mounting in the Truck
Receiver Mounting Designs Wrap-around clamp onto mirror on the outside of truck. Hangs from the back of receiver from the top mirror bar outside of truck. Hangs from the side of receiver from top mirror bar outside of truck.
Transmitter Mounting Designs Clamp will allow for a variety of attachment methods. The angle bracket attaches to side of digger controls & side of transmitter. Description: Flange wraps around rod attached to top of digger controls
Input Designs These input configurations address our human factor issues.
Output Designs
Multiple Frequency • Eliminates crossed signals between multiple combines and trucks in the same fields • Could accommodate large farms and industrial operations with numerous frequencies
Obstacles in Designing Electronics • Hire professional EE • Recruit EE student(s) from the EE Senior Design Course • Consult faculty/graduate students
Additional Features • Relative Velocity Sensors – Truck could match the speed of the harvester • Load Sensors – Harvester operator could load the truck evenly and accurately to prevent overloading • Accelerometers – Automate the STOP! signal transmission
Market Possibilities • Preparing a product package • Tradeshows • Finding a buyer/investors
Price Plan and Strategies * Based off of 1000 units produced.
Additional Industry • Additional product models? • Signal Automation? • Other industrial applications? – Road construction – Aviation
