ABSTRACT:
A device for automatic filling of a mobile container (4) with a material stream (13) from a harvester (1) moving alongside a discharge knee/discharge pipe which is controllably pivotable around a vertical and/or horizontal axis, with a pivotable discharge flap (5) at the end from the harvester (1) to the container (4). At least one optical and/or acoustic range finder (6) for measuring the container (4) and measuring fill levels is disposed on the discharge knee/discharge pipe (3). The range finder (6), either together with the discharge knee/discharge pipe (3) or independently thereof, can be pivoted horizontally and/or vertically. It sends distance signal (ES) to an electronic control installation which, according to the received distance signals, causes horizontal and/or vertical pivoting of the discharge knee/discharge pipe (3), if necessary by means of pivoting the discharge flap (5), for changing the discharge direction of the material stream into the container (4), so that as complete as possible loading of the container (4) is achieved with as few losses as possible.
