Abstract: Soil working tool for an agricultural machine, in particular a cultivator, which is fixed on a tool holder and has a tine-like region to which a preferably guide plate-like element is attached. In order to achieve an improved soil flow across the soil working tool with good wear protection and thus a sufficient service life of the soil working tool, the tine-like region has two side strips which run in the longitudinal direction of the soil working tool and have notch-like recesses extending in the transverse direction, and that an at least approximately smooth center strip region is located between the two side strips in the center in the longitudinal direction of the tine-like region of the soil working tool.

Abstract: A garden row tool to till the soil may include a first longitudinal side frame support member, a second longitudinal side frame support member connected to the first longitudinal side frame member, a first blade and a second blade to connect to the first longitudinal side support member and the second longitudinal side support member to till the soil and a traverse frame support member to adjustably connect the first longitudinal side frame member and the second longitudinal side frame support member.

Abstract: An aerator tine holder includes a clamp block removably attached to a base. Each of the clamp block and the base have a plurality of semicylindrical channels that when attached together form a plurality of cylindrical bores holding cylindrical tines. One or more magnets in the base and/or clamp block may be used to position the tines while the clamp block is removed from the base.

Abstract: An improvement for no-till rotary hoes to prevent trash from accumulating around a bearing of the rotary hoes thus destroying the bearing. An elongated axle mounts a hoe wheel distant from its corresponding support arm and in close proximity to an adjacent support arm, and the axle is protected by a spring-loaded protective sleeve which is spring loaded to provide a frictional seal against the bearing of the hoe wheel.

Abstract: A stone digging implement is manufactured as a simple and inexpensive attachment for the front end loader of a tractor. The attachment comprises a frame formed by a pair of horizontal I-beams which support a pair of hooked or pointed tines which extend downwardly from the I-beams for engaging the ground.

Abstract: A target member of the seismic energy source is driven into ground surface engagement, as the vehicle, to which the seismic energy source is pivotally connected, moves, due to the target member geometry, that is by resolving the tractive force so that the force driving the target member into the ground is a vector directed at an angle less than 90.degree. to the direction of the vehicle movement. Impulses from an impulse generator are transmitted to the target member after the latter has been driven into the ground, during the vehicle movement or at rest. The impulses are transmitted to propagate in a plane parallel to the ground surface and perpendicularly to the direction of the target member movement.

Abstract: A device for removing palmetto bushes which is adapted to be attached to a 3 point hitch and which is composed of a reinforced laterally extending or horizontally disposed frame having an attachment surface and a plurality of downwardly and forwardly extending equispaced fingers of tempered spring steel extending vertically downwardly and being forwardly tilted at an angle of between 5 and 20 degrees for use in digging, scraping, and raking palmetto bushes upon forward movement of a tractor to which the device is attached.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with an improvement in a tractor drawn scraper wherein the scraper has a bowl with a back, a bottom, two sides and a forward cutting edge and a spreader forward of the cutting edge and supported by forward extensions of the bowl sides. A tractor is provided forward of the spreader for pulling the scraper and means are provided for raising and lowering the forward end of the scraper relative to the tractor. The improved ripper assembly of the present invention comprises a beam suspended generally vertically downwardly from the spreader and forwardly from the bowl, the beam having a plurality of ripper sockets extending laterally from it. Held within the ripper sockets are a plurality of ripper shanks. A plurality of ripper teeth are generally provided proceeding from the ripper shanks. Means are provided for adjusting the vertical separation between the beam and the spreader.

Abstract: A lightweight pasture harrow for breaking up and scattering piles of manure and like material in a pasture including a shaped wire mesh framework secured to a front crossbar which provides a tow bar for pulling the harrow across a field, or pasture. The wire mesh framework includes a plurality of longitudinal wires and a plurality of transverse wires. Ends of the longitudinal wires may serve as harrow teeth, or separate harrow teeth may be provided.

Abstract: The tool bars carrying plows are removably attached to the farm tractor by two or more rearwardly extending support arms. The support arms are attached to a frame connected to the standard three-point power lift attachment of the farm tractor. Locking bars lock the tool bars to the support arms.
