Abstract: An agricultural implement includes a frame having a longitudinal axis and laterally opposed sides and motive supports mounted to and supporting the frame. The agricultural implement further includes a first wing carried by the frame and at least one second wing, in which each second wing is pivotably connected to the first wing. The agricultural implement also includes an elevator mechanism configured to raise and lower the first wing and the second wing. Each second wing is connected to the first wing by a wing pivot assembly that includes a skewed hinge pivotably connecting one of the second wings to the first wing. The wing pivot assembly allows each second wing to pivot with respect to the first wing between an operating position and a transport position, in which the skewed hinge defines a first pivot axis oriented at an acute angle with respect to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a farm implement includes a wing elevation circuit, a wing folding circuit, and a hydraulic valve block assembly. The wing elevation circuit lowers or raises the wings of the farm implement relative to a frame of the farm implement between a first position, in which the wings extend approximately collinear with a lateral axis of the frame, and a second position, in which the wings extend beneath the lateral axis of the frame. The wing folding circuit folds or unfolds the wings between the first position and a transport position, in which the wings are rotated beyond a vertical axis transverse to the lateral axis. The hydraulic valve block assembly is in communication with the wing elevation circuit and the wing folding circuit and controls hydraulic fluid flow in the wing elevation circuit and in the wing folding circuit.
