Abstract: A disc blade angle adjustment system for a tillage implement includes a first actuator having a cylinder, a piston disposed within the cylinder, and a single rod extending from the piston. The first actuator is configured to couple to a frame of the tillage implement and to a first disc blade support. The disc blade angle adjustment system also includes a second actuator having a cylinder, a piston disposed within the cylinder, and a single rod extending from the piston. The second actuator is configured to couple to the frame of the tillage implement and to a second disc blade support. In addition, the disc blade angle adjustment system includes a conduit extending between a cap end of the first actuator and a cap end of the second actuator or between a rod end of the first actuator and a rod end of the second actuator.

Abstract: A disc blade angle adjustment assembly for a tillage implement includes a base structure configured to couple to a frame of the tillage implement. The disc blade angle adjustment assembly also includes a vertical guide plate coupled to the base structure, in which the vertical guide plate has an elongated opening. Furthermore, the disc blade angle adjustment assembly includes a vertical support configured to couple to a disc blade support of the tillage implement. The disc blade support is configured to pivotally couple to the frame at a pivot point. The disc blade angle adjustment assembly also includes multiple rollers rotatably coupled to the vertical support and disposed within the elongated opening of the vertical guide plate. The rollers are configured to block rotation of the disc blade support about a longitudinal axis of the disc blade support via engagement with the vertical guide plate.

Abstract: A system for hydraulically leveling a multi-wing agricultural implement having a pressure regulating valve and a folding valve fluidly coupled in parallel between a supply line, configured to provide a supply pressure of hydraulic fluid, and an actuator, configured to move an outer-wing section of the implement between a transport position and a fully-extended position. Specifically, when fluid is supplied to the actuator via the pressure regulating valve, only a portion of the supply pressure is allowed through the pressure regulating valve to the actuator such that the outer-wing section may pivot towards a position where the outer-wing section is substantially level with the inner-wing section. When hydraulic fluid is supplied to the actuator via the folding valve, the outer-wing section is actuated towards the transport position. When hydraulic fluid is supplied to the actuator via the leveling valve, the outer-wing section is leveled relative to the inner-wing section.

Abstract: A finishing assembly for an agricultural implement includes a first rolling basket and a second rolling basket. The finishing assembly also includes a basket support assembly coupled to the first rolling basket and the second rolling basket and configured to support the first rolling basket and the second rolling basket relative to each other. The finishing assembly further includes a linkage pivotably coupled to the basket support assembly at a first pivot point. The finishing assembly even further includes a hydraulic actuator pivotably coupled to the basket support assembly at a second pivot point, wherein the hydraulic actuator is configured to damp pivoting of the basket support assembly about the first pivot point in both a first pivot direction and a second pivot direction, the second pivot direction being opposite the first pivot direction.

Abstract: In one aspect, a finishing assembly for an agricultural implement may include first and second rolling baskets, a basket support assembly configured to support the first and second rolling baskets relative to each other, a linkage pivotably coupled to the basket support assembly at a pivot point, and at least one damping element. The at least one damping element may be configured to damp pivoting of the basket support assembly about the pivot point in both a first pivot direction and a second pivot direction, the second pivot direction being opposite the first pivot direction.
