摘要： An apparatus to distribute materials in an artificial lawn includes a row of prongs joined to a transverse support, the row of prongs being configured to lift the blades of the artificial lawn, thereby enhancing penetration of the materials between the blades. The apparatus is configured to angularly preadjust the transverse support according to multiple adjustment positions so as to vary pressure of the prongs on the lawn; and a row of brushes configured to improve distribution of materials remaining on a surface of the lawn after the passage of the row of prongs.

摘要： In one embodiment, a turf aerator includes a frame having wheels, a variable displacement pump, an engine for driving at least one of the wheels and driving the pump, a tine assembly supported by the frame and being movable between lowered and raised configurations, and a swash-plate-adjustment linkage extending from the tine assembly to the pump. The tine assembly includes: a base; a hydraulic motor in hydraulic communication with the pump; rotatable cranks powered by the hydraulic motor; a downwardly-extending arm rotatably coupled to each crank; a tine extending downwardly from each downwardly-extending arm; springs operatively anchored to the base; and a guide arm extending between each downwardly-extending arm and a respective spring. The swash-plate-adjustment linkage automatically adjusts the pump with movement of the tine assembly relative to the frame to provide output to the hydraulic motor substantially only when the tine assembly is at the lowered configuration.

摘要： A turf roller includes a water filled, cylindrical roller drum with smoothed hemispherical ends adapted to eliminate sharp edges of a regular cylinder. The roller drum is suspended from a roller frame having a towing tongue and bracing attached. A heavy duty front scrapper blade is disposed along the length of the front of the drum to scrape mud and debris from the rolling surface of the drum. A second, rear scrapper blade and a grass catching basket are disposed along the length of the rear of the drum to scrape and retain grass clippings from the rolling surface of the drum. High speed transport wheels are extendable by a hydraulic system and mechanical linkages to lift the roller from the turf surface for high speed transport. The high speed transport wheels are retractable above the surface for low speed turf rolling operations. The hydraulic system is preferably operated remotely by a tow vehicle operator.

摘要： A sod-laying machine having a low center of gravity and a seated operator position adjacent the roll of sod being placed. The superior visibility available to the operator makes it possible to place the sod more accurately and with less need for subsequent adjustment than has been possible previously. The machine has sod roll lifting arms that can be spaced apart to lift and place rolls having any of the common large sod roll widths. The machine can be configured to lay sod that is rolled with either the grass side or the dirt side outermost. Propulsion, roll lifting and roll width adjustment is hydraulic with continuously variable speed drive. Turf scuffing is minimized by trailing caster wheels and independently controllable drive wheels mounted close to the location of the sod roll.

摘要： A soil aeration device may include a plurality of arcuate blades mounted to an assembly adapted to rotate and translate the blades proximate a ground surface, thereby forming aeration pockets in the soil. In certain embodiments, the arcuate tines penetrate and fracture the soil while minimizing the amount of soil lifted from the pocket deposited on the top of the soil. In various embodiments, a planetary gear assembly imparts to the tine a translational and rotational movement which creates a fractured pocket in the soil while minimizing the amount of soil lifted from the pocket and deposited on the surface of the soil. In still other embodiments, the arcuate tine may have mounted thereon a coring tube that cuts and removes a plug from the pocket formed in the soil.

摘要： A tine holder for holding a plurality of aerator tines has a plurality of substantially vertical, tapered bores. A tapered collar is adapted to be received in each bore with the collar being split so that the collar contracts as the collar is slid into the bore. The upper end of an aerator tine is inserted into each collar before the collar is inserted into the bore such that the contraction of the collar as the collar is thereafter slid into the bore will suffice to tightly grip and hold each tine in the tine holder. A tool is provided for providing enough leverage on the collar to slide the collar over final portions of its movement as the collar slides into the bore during tine installation or to slide the collar over beginning portions of its movement as the collar slides out of the bore during tine removal.

摘要： A safety mechanism for a turf aerator having a frame and an engine with a governor that generally prevents the turf aerator from operating at full power unless the safety mechanism is engaged. A blocking mechanism and a manual actuation device are mounted to the frame. The manual actuation device is in mechanical communication with the blocking mechanism. The blocking mechanism urges the governor toward a loaded position and the engine operates at a generally low power when the governor is in the loaded position.

摘要： A holecutter for creating holes in a golf course by both cutting a hole in the ground and removing the cut material comprises a receptacle, a cutting edge disposed at an aperture of the receptacle, an impact structure connected to the receptacle and arranged to deliver an impact to the receptacle to drive it into the ground and an ejecting structure disposed to eject the cut material from the receptacle. The ejecting structure of the holecutter is movable between an initial position and an ejected position by a geared drive acting between a guide and the impact structure. The impact structure comprises a grippable shaft that is slidably mounted on the guide which extends away from an end of the receptacle opposed to the aperture.
