1、 ANSI/ASAE S375.2 DEC1996 (R2013) Capacity Ratings and Unloading Dimensions for Cotton Harvester Baskets American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers ASABE is a professional and technical organization, of members worldwide, who are dedicated to advancement of engineering applicable to a
2、gricultural, food, and biological systems. ASABE Standards are consensus documents developed and adopted by the American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers to meet standardization needs within the scope of the Society; principally agricultural field equipment, farmstead equipment, stru
3、ctures, soil and water resource management, turf and landscape equipment, forest engineering, food and process engineering, electric power applications, plant and animal environment, and waste management. NOTE: ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data are informational and advisory only. The
4、ir use by anyone engaged in industry or trade is entirely voluntary. The ASABE assumes no responsibility for results attributable to the application of ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data. Conformity does not ensure compliance with applicable ordinances, laws and regulations. Prospectiv
5、e users are responsible for protecting themselves against liability for infringement of patents. ASABE Standards, Engineering Practices, and Data initially approved prior to the society name change in July of 2005 are designated as “ASAE“, regardless of the revision approval date. Newly developed St
6、andards, Engineering Practices and Data approved after July of 2005 are designated as “ASABE“. Standards designated as “ANSI“ are American National Standards as are all ISO adoptions published by ASABE. Adoption as an American National Standard requires verification by ANSI that the requirements for
7、 due process, consensus, and other criteria for approval have been met by ASABE. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a si
8、mple majority, but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. CAUTION NOTICE: ASABE and ANSI standards may be revised or withdrawn at any time. Additionally, procedures of ASABE require that
9、action be taken periodically to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw each standard. Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers. All rights reserved.

Keywords: Baskets, Capacity, Cotton, Harvester 1 Purpose and Scope 1.1 The purpose of this Standard is to provide a uniform method of expressing the following information re
14、lative to cotton strippers and cotton pickers. 1.1.1 Capacity of basket. 1.1.2 Unloading height of basket. 1.1.3 Lip height of raised basket. 1.1.4 Unloading angle of basket. 1.1.5 Maximum basket height. 1.1.6 Working height. 1.1.7 Transport height. 2 Capacity 2.1 Capacity of cotton stripper and cot
15、ton picker baskets shall be expressed as the total volume enclosed by the basket and lid. This volume shall be expressed in cubic meters (cubic feet) and may be determined from dimensional layout drawings. 2.2 In addition to the volumetric capacity rating, it shall be permissible to express a nomina
16、l capacity in kilograms (pounds). This rating shall be determined based on a density of 80.1 kg/m3(5.0 lb/ft3) for baskets without a compaction device. 2.3 If a mechanical compaction device is used, the capacity shall be the total weight, expressed in kilograms (pounds), certified from actual tests
17、conducted by the manufacturer. ANSI/ASAE S375.2 DEC1996 (R2013) Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers 2 3 Unloading Height 3.1 Unloading height H is defined as the maximum height of a 51-mm (2-in.) thick vertical side of a container which has clearance to all aspects of
18、 the machine when the basket is being unloaded into the container, under the following conditions and as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1 Typical cotton harvesters 3.1.1 Machine is stationary. 3.1.2 Basket is in fully raised position. 3.1.3 The lip location is in any vertical plane falling within the con
19、tainer. 3.2 Unloading height may be determined from dimensional layout drawings, and shall be expressed in meters to the nearest hundredth (feet to the nearest tenth). 4 Lip Height 4.1 Lip height HL is defined as the vertical dimension to the lip of the basket with the basket in fully raised positio
20、n. This dimension may be determined from dimensional layout drawings, and shall be expressed in meters to the nearest hundredth (feet to the nearest tenth). 5 Unloading Angle 5.1 The unloading angle of cotton picker or cotton stripper baskets is the angle (a) between the floor of the basket (unloadi
21、ng surface) and the horizontal when the basket is in its fully raised position. This angle is shown in Figure 1 and shall be specified in degrees. ANSI/ASAE S375.2 DEC1996 (R2013) Copyright American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers 3 6 Maximum Height 6.1 Maximum basket height HM is d
22、efined as the maximum vertical dimension that can be attained by any component on the basket during the unloading cycle with the assumption that the machine is stationary and on level ground, as shown in Figure 1. 6.2 Maximum basket height may be determined from dimensional layout drawings and shall
23、 be expressed in meters to the nearest hundredth (feet to the nearest tenth). 7 Working Height 7.1 Working height is defined as the maximum vertical dimension that can be attained by any component on a cotton picker or stripper while it is harvesting in the field. 7.2 Working height may be determine
24、d from dimensional layout drawings and shall be expressed in meters to the nearest hundredth (feet to the nearest tenth). 8 Transport Height 8.1 Transport height is defined as the maximum vertical dimension that can be attained by any component on a cotton picker or stripper when it is prepared for travel on a public roadway for purposes of going from farm to field or from farm to farm. 8.2 Transport height may be determined from dimensional layout drawings and shall be expressed in meters to the nearest hundredth (feet to the nearest tenth).
