Patent number: 9615505Abstract: A run selection mechanism is provided for selectively directing the flow of particulate material from an air cart. The mechanism includes a chute for receiving metered particulate material. The chute has an output. A first primary conduit has an output communicating with a first pneumatic primary run and a second primary conduit has an output communicating with a second pneumatic primary run. A selector selectively directs the metered particulate material to one of the output of the chute, the first pneumatic primary run and the second pneumatic primary run.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: CNH Industrial Canada, Ltd.Inventors: Ethan Bent, Dennis Thompson, Dennis Chahley, Darwin Zacharias

Patent number: 8141653Abstract: In an embodiment, an agricultural implement includes a first wing tool bar and a second wing tool bar on each lateral side of the implement. The first wing tool bar and the second wing tool bar are configured to rotate from a working position to a transport position. The first wing tool bar and the second wing tool bar each include a respective tool frame configured to rotate upwardly from a working position to a transport position. In addition, the second wing tool bar is configured to articulate with respect to the first wing tool bar during transport. A fold-away frame section is rotatably coupled to the first wing tool frame and configured to rotate out of a plane formed by the first and second wing tool frames to avoid contact between the tool frames during transport.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2009Date of Patent: March 27, 2012Assignee: CNH Canada, Ltd.Inventors: Nicholas George Alfred Ryder, Darwin Zacharias
