Abstract: An agricultural roller comprises a tubular support and a series of pneumatic tyres mounted on the support. Each pneumatic tyre of the series has a respective uninflated envelope. The roller further comprises a series of tyres mounted on the support and interleaved in the series of pneumatic tyres. Each tyre has a respective envelope. The tyres are smaller than the pneumatic tyres while their envelope is narrower.
Abstract: An agricultural system includes a tow bar, a first row-cleaning device, and a second row-cleaning device. The first row-cleaning device is attached to the tow bar via a first frame and includes a first roller device in a trailing position relative to a first furrow-opener disk and configured to crush standing residual plant matter along a first path on a field. The second row-cleaning device is attached to the tow bar via a second frame and includes a second roller device in a trailing position relative to a second furrow-opener disk and configured to crush standing residual plant matter along a second path on the field. The second roller device is offset longitudinally from the first roller device.
Abstract: A seeder implement (125) includes a fork (146) having a first spindle support arm (150) that supports a first spindle (164) and a second spindle support arm (152) that supports a second spindle (168). A first disk (160) is supported on the first spindle (164), wherein the first spindle (164) is oriented in a first orientation and at a first acute angle relative to a lateral line. The first disk (160) is oriented at a second acute angle relative to the ground surface. A second disk (166) is supported on the second spindle (168), wherein the second spindle (168) is oriented in a second orientation and at a third acute angle relative to the lateral line. The second disk (166) is oriented at a fourth acute angle relative to the ground surface. The first disk (160) is longitudinally offset ahead of the second disk (166), and there are no structural components between the first and second disks (160, 166) other than the first and second spindles (164, 168).

Abstract: A pneumatic processing machine includes a pneumatic motor, a circuit for connecting the motor to a source of compressed air, a tool holder spindle, and a drive mechanism. The mechanism includes a selection element which can be moved to select a first method of driving the spindle and a second method of driving the spindle. A device for controlling the operation of the machine controls the carrying-out of a driving cycle which includes at least one phase for driving the spindle according to the first driving method, then a phase for driving the spindle according to the second driving method, then the stopping of the supply of air to the motor. A supply valve of the circuit is controlled mechanically by the selection element to interrupt the supply of compressed air to the motor at the end of the driving cycle.

Abstract: Apparatus for making ski trails which is towed and comprises a drag having a cutter unit and a snow crushing unit mounted behind the cutter unit on the drag. The units have radial blades and rotate about an axis transverse to the direction of travel of the apparatus. The cutter unit derives its rotary motion from the tamped track of the snow and is connected by a transmission to the crushing unit whereby the latter derives its rotary motion from the cutter unit.
