PEANUT DIGGER-SHAKER-INVERTER WITH HYDRAULIC MOTORS IN LIEU OF BEVEL GEARS
A digger-shaker-inverter for harvesting rooted plants includes a plurality of row units, with each row unit comprising first and second carrying belts spaced to grip opposite sides of vines on the rooted plants. A first pulley drives the first carrying belt and a second pulley driving the second carrying belt. A first hydraulic motor is mounted to selectively cause rotation of the first pulley, and a second hydraulic motor is mounted to selectively cause rotation of the second pulley. A supply line connected to a tractor's hydraulic system provides hydraulic fluid to the first and second hydraulic motors, which are connected in daisy-chain fashion with an outlet of one connected to an inlet of the second, and the outlet of the second of the hydraulic motors connected to an inlet for a hydraulic motor of another row unit.

Harvester and processor for peanuts
A harvester and processor for peanuts that comprises a drag type machine to be towed and actuated by a conventional tractor, which has various double assemblies to harvest lined up peanuts and process them through various steps of cleaning, up to the separation of the cleaned grains that are stored in an embedded tipper bucket, and to perform all this, the machine contains a chassis (1), that on its bottom side is supported by wheels (3), while on its top side is integrated with a plate body (4) forming a mono block structure for the assembling of all the embedded assemblies, starting with the frontal hitch pole (5) integrated with the transmission assembly (6) which is responsible for the actuation of various parts of the machine, specially two harvesting conveyor belts (8), anti-jamming receptive boxes (9), threshing cylinders (10), and in these cylinders starts the cleaning process together with the vibrating sieves (11) and the ventilation assembly (12), being that the cleaned fruits are delivered to a receptive chute (13), where they are collected by a bucket elevator (14) and dropped inside of a tipper bucket (15).

PEANUT DIGGER-SHAKER CONTROL SYSTEM
A control system for use on a peanut harvester using a conveyor to elevate and relocate the peanut pods and attached plant material. The control system inputs the ground speed in the direction of travel and the conveyor speed, and outputs to an electronic flow control valve that is part of a hydraulic circuit between a hydraulic motor that drives the conveyor and a connection point that provides hydraulic power to the hydraulic motor. The control system uses an algorithm that compares the ground speed and the conveyor speed and varies the output to the flow control valve so that the conveyor speed is maintained at a defined percentage of ground speed. The defined percentage of ground speed is a user-controlled variable that can be adjusted on the go through the user interface portion of the control system.

Grain-harvesting farming equipment
Agricultural implements include equipment designed for harvesting, cleaning and storing farming produce. The farming produce it is designed to process particularly includes peanuts, beans or any other produce disposed in rows that can be gathered from the ground. The agricultural equipment can include a head (2), endowed with a collecting platform (3) with belts (5); with the head (2) including a transmission box (4) of the dual and pivotable type. The head (2) has complete hydraulic system with hydraulic oil tank (9), heat exchanger (9A) and filters, and the transmission box (4) further has an auxiliary input (11) to couple an accessory that can be hydraulic, pneumatic or electric, in order to drive auxiliary systems. In the rear part of the equipment are helicoids (6) that extend to the vertical transporter (7) and latter to the container (8).
