  • Patent number: 4126189
    Abstract: A folding tool carrier to be attached to a tractor and to carry an array of cultivating tools or implements. The carrier includes three bars forming a central section and a wing section at each side of the central section. Each wing section is connected to the central section by inner and outer swing arms to function as a parallelogram when the wings are lifted and retracted above the central section. The central section, the wings and the arms, are placed in a common vertical transverse plane to provide for a compact unit which may be carried immediately behind a tractor.To accomplish this, the inner arms are above and the outer arms are below the central and wing sections when the wing sections are extended. A comparatively short crown bar is mounted upon and above the central section and an inner swing arm is pivotally attached to each end of this crown bar to pivotally connect with the inner end of the adjacent wing section.
