VEHICLE FOR TENDING TO AGRICULTURE AND RELATED METHODS
A vehicle for tending to an elevated agriculture includes a base, a lower platform positioned above the base, and an adjustable support frame extending vertically upward from the lower platform. The adjustable support frame includes an expandable scissor portion. The vehicle also includes an elevated platform connected to the adjustable support frame such that the elevated platform is positioned above the lower platform, the elevated platform configured to selectively, vertically raise upward relative to the base from a lower height toward a higher height via selective expansion of the expandable scissor portion. The vehicle also includes a guide rail extending vertically upward from the elevated platform and horizontally surrounding at least a portion of the elevated platform. The vehicle further includes a drive unit operatively attached to the base and configured to selectively direct horizontal movement of the base with the elevated platform thereon.

Ergonomic seat tilting between two configurations
A chair includes a seat and a back rest, both of which pivot about respective axes between first and second positions thereof about parallel axes of rotation. The seat's second position is inclined relative to a first seat plane defined by the seat's first position. The backrest's second position is essentially parallel to the first seat plane such that the chair switches between seating and support configurations. In the seating configuration, the seat and backrest are their respective first positions such that the chair accommodates a seated person. In the support configuration, the seat and backrest are in their respective second positions such that the chair accommodates a person's chest on the backrest's rear face.
Stand-on outdoor power equipment for aerating soil
A stand-on aerator includes a chassis, an operator platform extending from a rear portion of the chassis, an aerator assembly coupled to the chassis and having a plurality of reciprocating tines configured to extend from and retract into the aerator assembly, and an object detection sensor. At least a portion of the plurality of reciprocating tines are configured to retract in response to the object detection sensor detecting an object in a path of the aerator assembly.

Farm vehicle
A farm vehicle includes a seat that converts between sitting and kneeling positions. The seat has three cushions: a first one to support a user's chest and head, a second to supports his knees, and a central cushion that pivots transversely between a lowered position and a raised position. In the lower position, the third cushion supports the user's pelvis in the kneeling position. In the raised position, the third cushion forms a sitting part in a sitting position. The slide-way comprises a supporting slide-way that allows translation of the seat in a direction of travel. The seat is mounted on a base that pivots on the slide-way to allow the first, second, and third cushions to pivot about a vertical pivot axis of the farm vehicle.
