The present disclosure includes a mobile liquid dispensing system adaptable to be implemented on an arm-bed truck. The disclosure includes an apparatus comprising a spray rig capable of engaging arms of an arm-bed truck, and a carrier operable to be hoisted by an arm-bed truck. A method of mobile liquid dispersion is also presented that be performed from an arm-bed truck. The disclosure offers many advantages in the art, including novel uses of an arm-bed truck and a spray rig that is resistant to damage from impacts.

A portable fluid tank apparatus for removably mounting on supports for a bulk seed container of a seed cart may include a pedestal configured for resting on the container supports of a seed cart in a seed box support position, a tank housing located on a portion of the pedestal and defining a tank chamber configured to hold a liquid, and an accessory housing located on another portion of the pedestal and defining an accessory compartment configured to hold at least one accessory. The accessory housing may include a base portion mounted on the pedestal and defining an opening for accessing the accessory compartment, and a lid portion mounted on the base portion and being movable with respect to the base portion between a closed position restricting access to the accessory compartment through the opening and an open position permitting access to the accessory compartment through the opening.

An infeed chute for a material application machine includes a riser and a water spreading unit. The riser includes a sidewall and defines an infeed opening extending through the riser. The riser is configured to be coupled to an opening of a tank of a material application machine such that application material passed through the infeed opening of the riser enters the tank of the material application machine. The sidewall includes a water inlet formed therein. The water spreading unit is coupled to the water inlet and is configured to direct water laterally across the infeed chute.

Embodiments of the invention provide a probe assembly configured to selectively restrict fluid flow through an outlet of a closed transfer system. The probe assembly has an elongate probe body with a top end portion, a bottom end portion, an outer wall, and an internal structure defining a fluid chamber extending from the bottom end portion to the top end portion. The fluid chamber has a fluid chamber inlet at the bottom end portion extending through the outer wall into the fluid chamber and a fluid chamber outlet at the top end portion extending from the fluid chamber through the outer wall. A probe tip with a cylindrical bore is configured to engage the top end portion of the elongate probe body and a probe tip outlet is configured to be in fluid communication with the fluid chamber outlet. A rotating head located circumjacent to the probe tip and adjacent to the probe tip outlet is configured to rotate about the probe tip. The rotating head having an inner surface, an outer surface, and a vane extending from the inner surface through the outer surface.

A product system for an agricultural sprayer includes a product tank configured to store an agricultural product. A reclaim system can be configured to provide the agricultural product within a flow assembly to a product tank. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the reclaim system. The computing system can be configured to receive information indicative of one or more characteristics of the agricultural product inputted into the fill station during a fill mode; detect termination of the fill mode; and activate a reclaim mode to move the agricultural product from the flow assembly to the product tank through activation of the reclaim system, wherein one or more operating conditions of the reclaim mode are based on the one or more characteristics of the agricultural product.

An agricultural method for preventing roll-back of an agricultural vehicle may include receiving a roll-back prevention input from a speed setting device indicative of a command to increase the transmission speed of the hydrostatic transmission while a service brake of the agricultural vehicle is engaged. Further, the method may include adjusting a speed mapping for the speed setting device from a predetermined speed mapping to a roll-back speed mapping in response to the roll-back prevention input, with the roll-back speed mapping being associated with a reduced speed range. Additionally, the method may include determining a transmission control command associated with a current position of the speed setting device based on the roll-back speed mapping and controlling an operation of the hydrostatic transmission to adjust the transmission speed based at least in part on the transmission control command.

A convertible sprayer and seeder is provided, including a liquids tank; one or more liquid discharge lines leading from the liquids tank to one or more nozzles, said nozzles being arranged along booms extending from the sprayer; a seed metering applicator; one or more seed lines, each connected from the seed metering applicator to each of said one or more liquid discharge lines; a venturi located at each connection between each seed line and each liquid discharge line; a spraying bypass mechanism associated with each of said one or more liquid discharge lines; and a seeding valve associated with each connection between the one or more seed lines and the one or more liquid discharge lines. When the seeding valve is closed the bypass mechanism allows spraying and when the seeding valve is opened, the bypass mechanism allows seeding. A method of seeding a cover or relay crop is also provided.

An access ladder includes an upper ladder portion having an upper step. A lower ladder portion is pivotally connected to a lower end of the upper ladder portion for movement around an axis that is parallel to the upper step. The lower ladder portion has a lower step having an orientation with respect to the upper step that is maintained when the lower ladder portion is pivoted with respect to the upper ladder portion.

An agricultural system includes a boom assembly. An imager assembly is associated with the boom assembly and configured to capture image data depicting at least a portion of the boom assembly. A computing system is communicatively coupled to the imager assembly and a display. The computing system is configured to receive the image data from the imager assembly and present a graphic on the display based on the image data. The graphic can include at least one overlaid illustration.

An infeed chute for a material application machine includes a riser and a water spreading unit. The riser includes a sidewall and defines an infeed opening extending through the riser. The riser is configured to be coupled to an opening of a tank of a material application machine such that application material passed through the infeed opening of the riser enters the tank of the material application machine. The sidewall includes a water inlet formed therein. The water spreading unit is coupled to the water inlet and is configured to direct water laterally across the infeed chute.
