Articulated nozzle-holder boom arm for agricultural sprayer
An articulated nozzle-holder boom arm for agricultural sprayer which is extensible to the sides of a main chassis and which can be folded to a transportation position by means of an intermediate hinge generally placed in an intermediate point of the boom arm, and the several sections of the beam forming the boom arm can be engaged or disengaged easily and without welding in the hinge or several supports of the beam sections, being the beam sections generally extruded aluminum profiles and the union of the profiles ends obtained engaging the same in retaining flanges included in the supports and hinges of connection of the sections.
Self-Propelled Agricultural Machine
The invention relates to a self-propelled agricultural machine, for example a self-propelled merger, which self-propelled agricultural machine is provided with at least one motor, at least two elongate units for, in use, performing an agricultural operation on the land, a front wheel axle and a rear wheel axle situated at a distance from the front wheel axle, wherein the front wheel axle and/or the rear wheel axle can be driven by means of the motor for displacing the agricultural machine, wherein each elongate unit is displaceable from a transportation position to a working position and vice versa by means of a folding mechanism, so that the maximum width of the self-propelled agricultural machine is smaller in the transportation position of the units than in the working position of the units, wherein, in the working position, the agricultural operation on the land can be performed substantially along the length of each elongate unit.
Semi-Mounted Reversible Plow
A semi-mounted reversible plow with a headstock for attachment to a tractor, a stabilizer which is connected to the headstock and on which a plow frame carrying two rows of plow bodies is mounted by way of at least a front turning arm in a manner rotatable about a horizontal turning axis, wherein an offset rocker in a rotatable manner to the turning arm and a front furrow rocker connected in an articulated manner to the offset rocker and in a rotatable manner to the plow frame, on the other hand, are arranged between the plow frame and the turning arm, and wherein the rockers can be moved by an adjustment actuator to positions causing different transverse distances between the headstock and in the direction of travel of the foremost plow body, such that the semi-mounted reversible plow is configured to selectively assume a furrow working position and an on-land working position.

Header float system for use with an agricultural windrower or combine
A header for an agricultural vehicle, and an agricultural vehicle having the header. The header includes a center section extending in a lateral direction, a wing section movably connected at a lateral end of the center section and extending in the lateral direction from the center section, a ground support attached to and extending in a downward direction from the wing section, and a resilient support operatively connected to the wing section and the ground support. The resilient support is configured to generate an adjustable predetermined force to bias the ground support in the downward direction.
AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT AND RAMP ATTACHMENT SYSTEM
An agricultural implement for mounting on a U-shaped foundation frame supported on wheels for travel over a ground surface where the foundation frame includes first and second laterally spaced mounting beams fixed to and extending from a base. The implement is configured to perform an agricultural operation, to rest on the ground surface when in an idle position, and to attach to the foundation frame when in an operating position. The implement comprises a rigid implement portion configured to be attached to the first and second mounting beams at first and second beam locations remote from the base such that the first and second mounting beams are prevented from moving laterally with respect to each other.

Implement operating apparatus
An implement operating apparatus has a U-shaped drive frame supported on drive wheels, each pivotally mounted about a vertical wheel pivot axis. A steering control selectively pivots each drive wheel. A power source is connected through a drive control to rotate the drive wheels in either direction. First and second implements are configured to perform implement operations and to rest on the ground and when the drive frame is maneuvered to an implement loading position with respect to each implement, the implement is connectable to the drive frame and movable to an operating position supported by the drive frame. When the implement is in the operating position, the steering and drive controls are operative to move and steer the drive frame and implement along a first travel path or a second travel path oriented generally perpendicular to the first travel path.
Shiftable wheels for agricultural implements
A wheel assembly for an agricultural implement. The agricultural equipment includes a laterally-extending toolbar with one or more agricultural tools extending from the toolbar. The wheel assembly comprises a wheel configured to rotate along a ground surface. The wheel assembly additionally comprises a base bracket configured to be rigidly secured to the toolbar. The wheel assembly further comprises a wheel bracket adjustably engaged with the base bracket. Adjustment of the wheel bracket with respect to the base bracket causes a corresponding lateral shifting of the wheel with respect to the toolbar.
Cutting unit for an agricultural working machine, and method for adjusting a cutting unit
A cutting unit for an agricultural working machine and a method for adjusting the cutting unit are disclosed. The cutting unit comprises a support body, a cutting device on the support body, a front suspension arranged on the support body on a first half of the cutting unit and has at least one wheel that rotates about a front axle and a rear suspension on the support body on a second half of the cutting unit and has at least two wheels that rotate about a rear axle, the front suspension and the rear suspension being rotatable about a respective rotary axis relative to the support body so that the front and rear suspensions can each be transferred between a transport position and a working position. The front suspension and the rear suspension, when in their respective working position, are moved relative to the support body between a high position and a low position.
