Abstract: A tillage implement has a main frame, a hinged wing and a plurality of gangs each having tools along its length. The plurality of gangs includes a main frame gang mounted to the main frame and inner and outer wing gangs mounted to the wing. The inner and outer wing gangs have inner ends that are forward or rearward with respect to the direction of travel of outer ends, and the lengths of the inner and outer wing gangs are offset from each other in the direction of travel.

Abstract: A disk scraper system for an agricultural implement includes a tubular member slidably supported by the implement frame adjacent a gang assembly having a plurality of disks. Scrapers are fixed to the member and project into scraping relationship with the disks to remove dirt and debris from the surfaces of the disks. A hydraulic cylinder is connected between the frame and the tubular member and connected through a pressure control valve assembly to a source of fluid under pressure to bias the member so the scrapers are urged into scraping relationship relative to the disks. The pressure control valve assembly may be remotely adjustable to vary the scraper pressure on-the-go as conditions change. The system maintains the selected scraper bias even as the gang assembly moves vertically and from side to side relative to the frame with changing contour and soil conditions.

Abstract: A scraper mechanism for the disk gangs of disk harrows and embodying a series of flexible scraper arms, one for each disk, which depend from a common scraper support and carry scraper blades at their lower ends. The upper ends of the scraper arms are turned laterally and provide short attachment sections of wide angle concavo-convex configuration. A clamping bolt extends through the apex of each section and the support and, upon tightening thereof progressively flattens the section against the support and thus swings the depending portion of the scraper arm in the direction of the respective disk for regulating the pressure of the scraper blade against the disk. Means are provided for shifting the position of the common scraper support so that collective adjustment of the various scraper blades may be effected.
