  • Publication number: 20230180647
    Abstract: A machine includes a trailer frame, a tongue, a plurality of wheels, and an implement assembly. The tongue extends away from the trailer frame and supports a coupling. The plurality of wheels are coupled to the trailer frame. The implement assembly is coupled to the trailer frame, and includes a plurality of independent implement mounting assemblies coupled to a mounting rail. The independent implement mounting assemblies each include an arm, an implement, and a spring. The arm is selectively coupled to the mounting rail. The implement is coupled to a first end of the arm. The spring is coupled to a second end of the arm opposite the first end. The spring is configured to oppose movement of the implement relative to the mounting rail.

  • Patent number: 9474197
    Abstract: A multi-task single-pass agricultural tillage implement has a plurality of independently engageable and adjustable soil working components successively mounted on a mainframe. The mainframe has a wheel assembly which raises and lowers a plurality of wheels. The mainframe also includes a tongue assembly coupleable to a towing vehicle and a frame pivoting angle adjustment mechanism. Each of the soil working components can be independently and selectively operated separately or in combination with any one or more of the plurality of working components such that each of the plurality of soil working components is independently, selectively operated for optimized single pass tillage. An open spiral chopping reel assembly for use in an agricultural field preparation implement is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8020629
    Abstract: A low till agricultural implement has a frame with a hitch for attachment to a tractor. An shallow-angled blade gang composed of an array of parallel ultra-shallow inclined disk blades is mounted to the front of the frame, and is followed by at least one wheel, spiral reel, and spike tooth harrow. The ultra-shallow inclined disk blades are mounted perpendicular to rotating shafts, and slice through field residue and soil with minimal lateral movement of material. The blades of the following reel then make cuts nearly perpendicular to those made by the circular blades. A trailing rolling basket or other finishing implement follows the spiral reel. The implement aids in drying the soil surface layer. Also, by cutting up residue and evenly spreading debris and topsoil, the implement helps to warm up the soil.
