Patent attributes
A harvesting system or device formed with an agricultural harvesting machine having a crop transfer device that that swivels about a swivel angle (φ) for transferring crop and allows for setting a setpoint swivel angle (φ soll) for discharging the crop, and a hauling vehicle that receives the crop. The crop that is discharged from the agricultural harvesting machine impacts the hauling vehicle at an adjustable impact point. If the deflection of the transfer device deviates from the setpoint swivel angle (φ soll), a return of the transfer device to the setpoint swivel angle (φ soll) is regulated by changing the ground speed (VE) of the agricultural harvesting machine, the ground speed (VT) of the hauling vehicle or bother while maintaining a position of the impact point substantially unchanged.
