SYSTEME ET PROCEDE PERMETTANT DE DETERMINER LES FORCES EXERCEES SUR LES COMPOSANTS D'UN OUTIL AGRICOLE EN CONTACT AVEC LE SOL ROULANT, EN FONCTION DE LA FORCE DE FREINAGE APPLIQUEE
In one aspect, a system for determining forces exerted on rolling groundengaging components of an agricultural implement may a ground engagingcomponent configured to roll relative to soil within a field as theagriculturalimplement is moved across the field. A controller of the disclosed system maybeconfigured to control an operation of a braking device such that a brakingforce isapplied to the rolling ground engaging component. When the braking force isbeingapplied to the rolling ground engaging component, the controller may beconfiguredto monitor a rotational speed of the rolling ground engaging component basedonmeasurement signals received from a sensor. Moreover, the controller may beconfigured to determine a force exerted on the rolling ground engagingcomponent bythe soil within the field based on the applied braking force and the monitoredrotational speed.
