摘要: A row unit for an agricultural implement has a mounting device with a rail portion for sliding engagement with a seed delivery device to facilitate quick and easy installation and removal of the seed delivery device without the use of tools. A seed meter is mounted to the underside of a cover such that as the cover is opened the seed meter moves with the cover away from the seed delivery device to provide convenient access to both the seed meter and the seed delivery device. A cam and pawl arrangement selectively retains the cover in the open position.

摘要: An electrically operated agricultural planting implement is used with an agricultural vehicle. The planting implement may include a generator to generate electric power to power electronic components located on the row units of the planting implement as well as to power other functionality of the planting implement such as lifting and/or pivoting. Operating the planting implement via electric power rather than hydraulic power eliminates the need for hydraulic plumbing. A wireless data communication and control system is used with an agricultural planting implement and an agricultural vehicle. The system provides for bidirectional data communication and control between a control unit and the planting implement. The system eliminates the need for wiring and also provides the ability to communicate with and control the planting implement remotely. A user can wirelessly and remotely control the planting implement by inputting commands into the control unit.

摘要: An agricultural planting implement includes a number of row units. The row units include one or more seed meters for receiving, singulating, and dispensing seed to the ground such that preferred spacing of subsequent seed is attained. A seed meter provides seeds one at time to a seed carrier, such as a brush wheel. The brush wheel may move the seeds one at a time to a seed conveyor by directly moving seeds along a curved portion of a seed disc in the seed meter. The seed conveyor may be a flighted belt, and the velocity of the seeds when transferred from the seed carrier may match the velocity of the flighted belt. The seed conveyor conveys the seeds to a position near the bottom of a furrow, and ejects the seeds with little or no horizontal velocity relative to the bottom of the furrow.
