Agricultural electronics include many components. The components can be connected via an electronic link that connects the various components to components of an agricultural implement. This can include the use of a component type identifier and a master module. The identifier and the module can communicate data, including identification data and instructional data, to easily acknowledge and operate various electrical components of the agricultural implement. Additional sensors can be included to provide even additional data that is communicated between the module and the components of the agricultural implement to aid in providing instructions for operation and to provide additional data information.

An agricultural planting implement having a number of row units includes a voltage converter configured to receive an input voltage and produce an output voltage that is different than the input voltage. The voltage converter is configured to receive power directly from an agricultural vehicle configured to tow the agricultural planting implement. The voltage converter can be selectively enabled and/or disabled to supply the requisite power to electronic components located on the row units, wherein the electronic components are configured to perform at least one agricultural function. Different electronic components often require a power supply of differing voltage levels. The voltage converter provides a means to supply differing power supplies to different electronic components wherein all electrical power supplied to the electronic components originates from a power source located on the agricultural vehicle.

A wear block assembly for a three-point hitch includes an actuator wedge that moves along a longitudinal axis relative to a lower lift arm of the three-point hitch. The actuator wedge also includes a tapered surface. The wear block assembly also includes a wear block that moves along a lateral axis relative to the lower lift arm and the wear block includes a wear surface that engages a sway block of the three-point hitch. The wear block also includes a contact surface that engages the tapered surface of the actuator wedge. The actuator wedge drives the wear block to move in a first direction along the lateral axis in response to movement of the actuator wedge in a second direction along the longitudinal axis.

A lift arm for a three-point hitch includes a central body. The central body includes a connecting member and a first rib extending away from a surface of the connecting member along a lateral axis. The central body also includes a second rib extending away from the surface of the connecting member along the lateral axis. A channel is formed by the connecting member, the first rib, and the second rib.

A locking assembly for a three-point hitch quick coupler includes a locking plate configured to be movably coupled to a main support of the three-point hitch quick coupler. The locking plate is configured to block removal of a lower hitch pin from a lower hook of the three-point hitch quick coupler while the locking plate is in a closed position, and the locking plate is configured to enable removal of the lower hitch pin from the lower hook while the locking plate is in an open position. The locking assembly also includes an actuator coupled to the locking plate and configured to be coupled to the main support of the three-point hitch quick coupler. The actuator is configured to drive the locking plate to move between the open and closed positions.

An upper link for a three-point power lift of an agricultural tractor including a cylindrical connecting sleeve, a first fastening element rotated into a first open end of the cylindrical connecting sleeve and configured to be attached to the agricultural tractor, a second fastening element rotated into a second open end of the cylindrical connecting sleeve and configured to produce a releasable connection to an attachment, and a retaining bar attached to the first fastening element. The retaining bar includes a bar portion having a locking region for receiving a retaining catch and runs spaced apart along the cylindrical connecting sleeve. The retaining bar includes a support element encompassing the cylindrical connecting sleeve such that the connecting sleeve is rotationally displaceable, and the length of the upper link is varied by rotating the cylindrical connecting sleeve.

An agricultural system includes agricultural equipment and a user interface. The agricultural equipment includes a command and control system and an equipment configuration code file. The command and control system, in operation, configures and controls the agricultural equipment based at least in part on the equipment configuration code file. The agricultural equipment comprises a work vehicle or an implement to be carried or towed by a work vehicle. The user interface displays information to, and receive inputs from a user for one or more data fields in the equipment configuration code file for the agricultural equipment. The data fields comprise a user-given name and at least one of a compatible implement, an accessory, or a task for which the agricultural equipment may be configured.

A three-point hitch for an agricultural tractor includes a hydraulically actuatable lifting arm, a vertically pivotable lower link, and a lifting strut arranged between the lifting arm and the lower link. The lifting strut transmits to the lower link a pivoting movement on the lifting arm. The lifting strut includes a first fastening portion articulated to the lifting arm and a second fastening portion articulated to the lower link. The second fastening portion includes first and second fastening segments which encompass the lower link in a fork-shaped manner. A bearing pin disposed between the two fastening segments extends through a slot formed in the lower link. By pivoting the lower link, the bearing pin is displaced inside the slot between a first working position and a second working position. In each position, the bearing pin is secured inside the slot by a blocking arrangement.

A coupling device, particularly for power-operated machines for agricultural use or the like, includes an oscillating frame which is detachably connected to a hitch assembly of an engine and a movable connection means for associating with the oscillating frame the working means of a power-operated machine. The oscillating frame and the movable connecting means are configured to maintain, during use, the working plane of the power-operated machine substantially parallel to the ground, independently of the plane of arrangement of the wheels or of the tracks of the engine.
