Transporting agricultural products and the other material by the two-wheel-tractor (power-tiler)and trailer system may be one of its most widely used farming functions.The safety and hitching load for all the previaling performing conditions may be the general concern over the operation of the tiller-trailer system. In this study, a mathematical model to determine the static and dynamic forces excerting on the hitch point were developed . Based on the analysis of the model and the field measurements. the limiting hitching load and critical slope were analyzed. The results of the study are summarized as follows ; 1) The limit angle of slope land for the safety steering that two-wheel tractor-single axle trailer system was able to transport agricultural products was the direct angle (${\gamma}$) = 8 ; the cross angle$\beta$) 15 ; and it was decreased in accordance with the increase of carrying load ($W_4). 2) The critical velocity for safe operation in case of running on downward hill road was about 1.08m/sec. 3) The limiting carrying load for the safe steering was W$_4$=600kg. The degree of the safe steering for different braking methods was given in order as follows ; Simulataneous braking the tractor and trailer , braking the trailer only, and braking tractor only. 4) Among the three components of impact loads excerting on the hitch point, the component in the lateral direction ($P_{Vy}$) was near zero in spite of increase of hitching load ($W_4) , while the components in the other two mutually perpedicular directions ($P_{Vx}$ and ($P_{Vz}$) ) had larger values in horizontal plane than those in the slope lands. 5) Moment of forces on the lateral direction (M$y$) had the largest value among the three components of impact moment acting on the hitch point, however all the components were sharply increased in accordance with the increase of hitching loads ($W_4. Three components of the moment were the negative values.

농산물은 수확된 후부터 계속해서 호흡, 증발, 대사작용을 계속한다. 이런 제반 활동에 기인된 품질손실을 수송과정에서 회복시킬 수는 없으며 단지 농산물은 자체내의 대사작용에 의해서만 에너지를 공급받아 품질을 유지해야 한다. 수확 직후부터 농산물은 세포의 부패로 인해 품질이 저하되기 시작하며 저장기간이 줄어들게 된다 결국 농산물은 수송하고 처리하는 동안의 온도변화, 수분감소, 가스발생 빈도, 물리적 손상, 위생상의 문제 등에 노출된다. (중략)

청과류는 수송과 취급기간 중에 충격, 마찰, 눌림, 타박 등에 지속적으로 노출된다. 그러므로 농산물의 품질을 저하시키는 물리적인 손상을 최소화하기 위해 최선의 처리와 수송방법을 선택할 필요가 있다. 충격흡수 시스템이 갖추어진 대형 냉동 트레일러에 체리, 복숭아, 배, 토마토를 수송했을 때 3.5Hz에서 수직가속도가 가장 크게 나타났고 9-25Hz에서는 이보다는 약간 감소했다. (중략)

농산물은 육로를 통한 트레일러 수송 과정에서 파손의 우려가 있고, 진동으로 인한 물리적 손상은 미생물 증식이나 농산물 자체의 생리적 변화를 초래하는 원인이 되어 결국 품질 저하를 가져 올 수 있다 수송 중 가속도의 변화와 진동은 농산물의 탈색 현상과 타박상을 초래하여 상품 가치를 저하시키는 주요 요인으로 지목되고 있다. (중략)

농산물 취급자는 전체 수송기간 동안 청과류의 품질을 어떻게 유지할 것인가 하는 기술적인 면에 더 많은 관심을 기울이고 있다. 대부분의 농산물은 선적하기 전의 품질만으로도 목적지에 도착했을 때의 품질을 예측할 수 있다. 신선도가 높은 농산물은 신선도가 떨어지는 농산물에 비해 병원균의 침투에 강하고, 기계적인 손상과 물리적 피해에 대한 저항력이 크다. 동일한 조건으로 수송될 때 양질의 농산물은 품질이 낮은 농산물에 비해 손실이 적고, 수송비용을 많이 들이는 것이 양질의 농산물을 수송하는 한가지 방법이다(McGregor, 1989).

농산물의 품질은 생산자에서 최종 소비자에게 도착될 때까지의 일련의 취급과정에서 발생되는 생리적, 환경요인에 의해 좌우되며 단 한번의 부주의에 의한 취급도 바로 품질저하로 연결되는 되돌릴 수는 없는 나쁜 결과를 만든다. 청과류는 수송과 취급기간 중에 충격, 마찰, 눌림, 타박 등에 지속적으로 노출된다. 그러므로 농산물의 품질을 저하시키는 물리적인 손상을 최소화하기 위해 최선의 처리와 수송방법을 선택할 필요가 있다. (중략)

Power tiller is a major unit of agricultural machinery being used on farms in Korea. About 180.000 units are introduced by 1977 and the demand for power tiller is continuously increasing as the farm mechanization progress. Major farming operations done by power tiller are the tillage, pumping, spraying, threshing, and hauling by exchanging the corresponding implements. In addition to their use on a relatively mild slope ground at present, it is also expected that many of power tillers could be operated on much inclined land to be developed by upland enlargement programmed. Therefore, research should be undertaken to solve many problems related to an effective untilization of power tillers on slope ground. The major objective of this study was to find out the travelling and tractive characteristics of power tillers being operated on general slope ground.In order to find out the critical travelling velocity and stability limit of slope ground for the side sliding and the dynamic side overturn of the tiller and tiller-trailer system, the mathematical model was developed based on a simplified physical model. The results analyzed through the model may be summarized as follows; (1) In case of no collision with an obstacle on ground, the equation of the dynamic side overturn developed was: $$\sum_n^{i=1}W_ia_s(cos\alpha cos\phi-{\frac {C_1V^2sin\phi}{gRcos\beta})-I_{AB}\frac {v^2}{Rr}}=0$$ In case of collision with an obstacle on ground, the equation was: $$\sum_n^{i=1}W_ia_s\{cos\alpha(1-sin\phi_1)-{\frac {C_1V^2sin\phi}{gRcos\beta}\}-\frac {1}{2}I_{TP} \( {\frac {2kV_2} {d_1+d_2}\)-I_{AB}{\frac{V^2}{Rr}} \( \frac {\pi}{2}-\frac {\pi}{180}\phi_2 \} = 0 $$ (2) As the angle of steering direction was increased, the critical travelling veloc\ulcornerities of side sliding and dynamic side overturn were decreased. (3) The critical travelling velocity was influenced by both the side slope angle .and the direct angle. In case of no collision with an obstacle, the critical velocity $V_c$ was 2.76-4.83m/sec at $\alpha=0^\circ$, $\beta=20^\circ$ ; and in case of collision with an obstacle, the critical velocity $V_{cc}$ was 1.39-1.5m/sec at $\alpha=0^\circ$, $\beta=20^\circ$ (4) In case of no collision with an obstacle, the dynamic side overturn was stimu\ulcornerlated by the carrying load but in case of collision with an obstacle, the danger of the dynamic side overturn was decreased by the carrying load. (5) When the system travels downward with the first set of high speed the limit {)f slope angle of side sliding was $\beta=5^\circ-10^\circ$ and when travels upward with the first set of high speed, the limit of angle of side sliding was $\beta=10^\circ-17.4^\circ$ (6) In case of running downward with the first set of high speed and collision with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of the dynamic side overturn was = $12^\circ-17^\circ$ and in case of running upward with the first set of high speed and collision <>f upper wheels with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn collision of upper wheels against an obstacle was $\beta=22^\circ-33^\circ$ at $\alpha=0^\circ -17.4^\circ$, respectively. (7) In case of running up and downward with the first set of high speed and no collision with an obstacle, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn was $\beta=30^\circ-35^\circ$ (8) When the power tiller without implement attached travels up and down on the general slope ground with first set of high speed, the limit of slope angle of dynamic side overturn was $\beta=32^\circ-39^\circ$ in case of no collision with an obstacle, and $\beta=11^\circ-22^\circ$ in case of collision with an obstacle, respectively.

This study was aimed to minimized the impact force and vibration transmitted to transporting agricultural product from the power tiller trailer by installing vibration absorption device. The vibration absorbable trailer (I) mounted with leaf spring suspension and shock absorber was developed and compared on vibration absorption performance with the existing trailer (E) equipped no vibration absorption device. In order to identify the vibration absorption effect of the trailer developed in this study, the vibration accelerations, occurred during driving on paved road with loading 360 kg of pear, were measured and analyzed using FFT analyzer. The magnitude of average vibration acceleration was decreased highly for the improved trailer mounted with vibration absorption device in comparing with existing trailer in the frequency range under 60 Hz and under 80 Hz. And similar vibration absorption effect was represented for the improved trailer in all frequency range. Especially, in the frequency range between 40 Hz and 80 Hz, the magnitude of vibration acceleration for the improved trailer was decreased with 1/3 times in comparing with existing trailer. So, the transporting loss including damage of agricultural product could be decreased highly by using the improved vibration absorbable trailer mounted with leaf spring suspension and shock absorber simultaneously, designed in this study.

This study aimed to output augmented reality display using chroma-key so that power tiller simulator can be operated smoothly while wearing the head mounted display. In this paper, we propose a chroma-eliminating image filtering method. Experimental results show that the maximum and minimum values of hue, saturation and intensity were 0.52, 0.153, 0.57, 0.16, 1, and 0.12, respectively. A keypad was used to set the initial position of augmented reality adjusted with the front, back, top, bottom, left, and right buttons. The initial position value is always maintained and managed according to the trailer attachment and detachment. Finally, we show that the augmented reality merged with virtual image and the acquired image of operation device using coordinate values obtained from the HMD and the position tracking sensor as relative coordinates in Unity program that is the ultimate game development platform.
