Abstract: A disc assembly for an agricultural implement includes a mounting assembly having a housing and a rotatable shaft configured to be disposed within the housing. The mounting assembly includes a first end cap non-movably coupled to the rotatable shaft, in which the first end cap is configured to engage a longitudinally inward surface of a first disc blade. The mounting assembly also includes a second end cap having a first engagement feature configured to selectively engage a second engagement feature of the rotatable shaft to non-movably couple the second end cap to the rotatable shaft. The second end cap is configured to engage a longitudinally inward surface of a second disc blade, and the second end cap is selectively removable from the rotatable shaft via disengagement of the first and second engagement features to facilitate engagement and disengagement of the rotatable shaft with the longitudinal passage of the housing.

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 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 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: A disc assembly for an agricultural implement includes a mounting assembly having a housing and a rotatable shaft disposed within the housing. The rotatable shaft includes a recess extending along a portion of an axial extent of the rotatable shaft. The recess is formed by an inner surface of the rotatable shaft. The rotatable shaft also includes a first engagement feature formed on the inner surface and a key disposed about the recess. The key is configured to engage an opening of a disc blade to block rotation of the disc blade relative to the rotatable shaft. Furthermore, the disc assembly includes a fastener having a shaft configured to extend through the opening of the disc blade and to engage the recess of the rotatable shaft. The shaft has a second engagement feature configured to engage the first engagement feature to couple the disc blade to the rotatable shaft.
