  • Patent number: 11910740
    Abstract: A brush belt includes a base member having a drive surface configured to engage a drive member and a mounting surface opposite the drive surface, the mounting surface having a longitudinal axis, a first edge, and second edge, the first edge and the second edge being positioned on opposite sides of the mounting surface and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, and a plurality of bristles, each bristle having a first end that is proximal to the mounting surface and a second end distal thereto, the second ends of the bristles collectively defining an undulating surface profile relative to the mounting surface when viewed parallel to the mounting surface and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis from either the first edge or the second edge.

  • Publication number: 20210321558
    Abstract: Systems and methods for distributing granular products onto or into the soil, comprising a chassis, a first assembly for distributing a first granular product comprising a main hopper, fixed to a frame, which can move in relation to said chassis and is able to adopt a position known as the “lowered” position, which is the working position of said sowing unit, and a position known as the “raised” position, which is the maintenance position of said sowing unit, and that is able to move from said “lowered” position to said “raised” position and vice versa, said sowing unit also comprising a mechanism for tilting said frame and comprising a collapsible quadrangle or double quadrangle that connects said frame to said chassis, said tilting mechanism being arranged substantially perpendicular to the plane X-X? formed by said chassis, and maintained substantially perpendicular to said plane X-X? in said “lowered” and “raised” positions and when moving from one position to the other, and vice versa.
