System and method for monitoring the frame levelness of an agricultural implement

In one aspect, a system for monitoring the frame levelness of an agricultural implement include first and second sensors configured to capture data indicative of a position differential defined between a soil surface and a portion of an a first and second ground engaging tool positioned below the soil surface, respectively. The captured data may be associated at least partially with the receipt of sensor signals reflected off of the portion of the associated ground engaging tool positioned below the soil surface. The system may also include a controller configured to determine penetration depths of the first and second ground engaging tools based on the captured data received from the first and second sensors, respectively. The controller may also be configured to monitor the frame levelness based on a penetration depth differential defined between the first and second penetration depths.

In one aspect, a system for monitoring the frame levelness of an agricultural implement may include an implement frame and first and second seedbed detection assemblies coupled to the implement frame. Each of the seedbed detection assemblies may include a seedbed tool configured to ride along a seedbed floor as the implement frame is moved across a field in a forward travel direction. Each of the seedbed detection assemblies may also include a seedbed floor sensor configured to capture data indicative of a position of the corresponding seedbed tool relative to the implement frame. Furthermore, the system may include a controller configured to monitor positions of the seedbed detection assemblies relative to the implement frame based on data received from the seedbed floor sensors of the first and second seedbed detection assemblies, respectively.

TILLAGE POINT FOR AN AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT WITH IMPROVED SHANK PROTECTION
20200236832 · 2020-07-30 · ·

A tillage point for an agricultural implement includes a body extending in a lengthwise direction between a tip end and a retention end and in a vertical direction between an upper body surface and a lower body surface, where the body defines a retention slot between the upper and lower body surfaces. Additionally, the tillage point has a fin extending outwardly from the upper body surface in the vertical direction. The fin defines a height in the vertical direction between a base end of the fin positioned adjacent to the upper body surface of the body and a top end of the fin positioned opposite the base end. The fin further defines a lateral width between opposed lateral sides of the fin, where the lateral width of the fin tapers along at least a portion of the vertical height of the fin.
