摘要:
An agricultural system includes an agricultural row unit movable on a field between a first soil condition and a second soil condition, the first soil condition having a different soil hardness than the second soil condition. A down-pressure actuator applies an initial first pressure associated with the first soil condition. A soil-hardness sensing device is positioned at a distance D forward of the row unit and outputs a soil-hardness change signal when detecting a change from the first soil condition to the second soil condition. At least one memory device stores instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, cause the down-pressure actuator to change, in response to receiving the soil-hardness change signal, the initial first pressure to a different second pressure when the row unit encounters the second soil condition.

This disclosure is directed to the field of agricultural machinery and relates to preplanting tillage implements generally used in combination with a seed planting device, or other multi-row implement. Specifically, the disclosure relates to row treating units incorporating a row clearance arrangement or a combination of tools that includes a row cleaning device and a soil penetrating coulter device. The units are designed to be attached to the front of a multi-row implement. The deployment of and down force exerted by the row cleaner is independently adjustable and controlled using pneumatic air bag operators.

An agricultural row unit includes a linkage pivotably coupled to an attachment frame, and a row unit frame with a leading end pivotably coupled to the linkage. A hydraulic cylinder is coupled to the attachment frame and the linkage, for urging the row unit frame downwardly toward the soil, and includes a movable ram extending into the cylinder. A hydraulic-fluid cavity is located within the cylinder for receiving pressurized hydraulic fluid for advancing the ram in a direction that pivots the linkage and the row unit frame downwardly toward the soil. An accumulator is positioned adjacent to the hydraulic cylinder and has a fluid chamber containing a diaphragm, with the portion of the chamber on one side of the diaphragm being connected to the hydraulic-fluid cavity in the hydraulic cylinder, and the portion of the chamber on the other side of the diaphragm containing a pressurized gas.

A device for leveling playing fields is useful for ensuring that bowling greens are flattened within established parameters. The device for leveling playing fields comprises a main frame mechanically coupled to a front skid and a rear skid and a blade assembly where the blade assembly further comprises cutting blades driven by a blade drive chain mechanically coupled to an engine. The main frame is further mechanically coupled to a lawn tractor such that a user can drive the lawn tractor over a playing field and use the front skid to knock the turf in hills loose, the cutting blades both manicure the playing field and cut loose turf which can be pushed by the rear skid into valleys.

A system for automated control of a machine having a ground engaging work implement includes an implement load sensor system. A controller determines a change in terrain based at least in part upon a change in the load on the ground engaging work implement. If the change in terrain exceeds a threshold, the controller generates an alert command signal. A method is also provided.

A weeding hand tool, comprising a generally longitudinal member joining a handle grip at a first end thereof and a pedal at a second opposite end thereof, a finger head comprising coiled fingers arranged in a helix and an ejector rod mobile inside the helix, and an ejector arm, wherein, when the tool is positioned generally vertically with free end tips of the coiled fingers on the ground, pushing down on the handle grip and/or on the pedal causes the coiled fingers to rotated down into the soil, entrapping a weed beneath the soil as they penetrate the soil, and wherein when, by pulling up on the longitudinal member, the coiled fingers are pulled out from the soil, with the weed entrapped in the helix they form, and the weed is ejected from the helix pulling down on the ejector arm.

A machine for aerating soil has a frame. A gear box is attached to the frame. A crank assembly is driven by the gear box. A parallel arm is pivotally attached to the crank assembly by a crank arm and is pivotally attached to the frame. A tine assembly arm is pivotally attached to the frame and is pivotally attached to the parallel arm at a fixed point. A rigid tine holder is pivotally attached to the tine assembly arm and is pivotally attached to the parallel arm and extends beyond the parallel arm.The connection of the tine assembly arm, parallel arm and tine holder to the crank assembly ensure that the tines are driven straight into the soil. The lack of arc ensures that the turf surface is minimally disturbed.

A small-sized tiller includes a stand unit configured to solely support the tiller in a self-standing state. The stand unit has a pole portion removably mountable to a resistance-bar attachment portion of the body frame when a resistance bar has been removed from the resistance-bar attachment portion.
摘要:
A tillage blade having a sharpened outer peripheral edge on a blade body has a predetermined thickness. An annular portion of the blade is disposed between the outer peripheral edge and the body having a thickness which is less than the thickness of the body of the blade, the annular portion having a radially outer part and a radially inner part. The blade is tapered from the sharpened peripheral edge to the radially outer part of the annular portion and the blade is tapered from the radially inner part of the annular portion to the body. By making the sharpened bevels on out outer periphery of the blades taper in steps instead of just sharpening them by making either one bevel on one side, or a bevel on each side of the outer periphery of the blade, the blade will last longer than prior art tillage blades.

An arrangement for setting variable operating elevation for a hand-held powered tool capable of generating a rotational motion and employed to manipulate a combination turbo garden tiller and a grass trimmer apparatus includes at least one elongated rod like member engageable at a first end thereof with threaded end of the apparatus and engageable at an opposed second end thereof with the powered tool. The at least one elongated rod like member has each of a predetermined length and a third predetermined cross-sectional shape in a direction transverse to the predetermined length. At least one aperture is formed through the at least one elongated rod like member in the direction transverse to the predetermined length. An elongated pin is provided and has at least one end thereof sized for insertion into the at least one aperture.
