Abstract: An improved tilting bearing assembly (100) is provided that includes a support bracket and a tilting bearing; the support bracket and the tilting bearing, along with methods of replacing the same are also provided. The support bracket generally comprises a substantially planar upper portion lying in a first plane and having two opposing ends and a pair of elongated openings, each elongated opening extending in a first direction entirely through the upper portion of the support and having a closed end and an opposing open end, the closed end of each elongated opening being equidistant from respective ones of the two opposing ends; and two opposing leg portions, each leg portion projecting at an angle relative to the first plane, extending at respective upper ends of each leg portion from one of the two opposing ends of the upper portion and terminating at respective lower ends of each leg portion.

Abstract: A cultivator comprises an array of laterally-spaced soil-inversion discs having their centers arranged in a substantially horizontal line lying at not more than 30.degree. to a transverse plane of the cultivator and being mounted for rotation about individual axes which are equally inclined to the vertical and, when viewed in plan, also to the longitudinal plane of the cultivator.
