DISK BLADE WITH SHARPENED EDGE AND RELIEF PORTION AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME
20190307049 · 2019-10-10 ·

A method of manufacturing an agricultural tillage disk blade includes providing a substantially circular-shaped disk body with an outer peripheral edge and a central opening that defines a rotation axis, the outer body being disposed within a first plane. A plurality of waves is formed in a predetermined pattern in the outer peripheral edge of the disk body, and the outer peripheral edge is sharpened to form a plurality of teeth such that at least a portion of the sharpened outer peripheral edge is disposed within a second plane that is parallel to the first plane and substantially perpendicular to the rotation axis. The method also includes machining a plurality of relief portions in each of the plurality of waves at a location radially inward of the plurality of teeth, and heat treating the disk body after the sharpening and machining steps.

Agricultural system for field preparation
10433472 · 2019-10-08 · ·

An agricultural system includes a tow bar, a first row-cleaning device, and a second row-cleaning device. The first row-cleaning device is attached to the tow bar via a first frame and includes a first roller device in a trailing position relative to a first furrow-opener disk and configured to crush standing residual plant matter along a first path on a field. The second row-cleaning device is attached to the tow bar via a second frame and includes a second roller device in a trailing position relative to a second furrow-opener disk and configured to crush standing residual plant matter along a second path on the field. The second roller device is offset longitudinally from the first roller device.

DISC TOOL, AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT COMPRISING SUCH A DISC TOOL AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A DISC TOOL

The document discloses a disc tool (1) for breaking up field residues, comprising a central hub portion (10), which is designed for mounting the disc in a tool holder in order to make the disc rotatable about a rotation axis (Ar), a cultivating portion (11), which is located radially outside of and adjoins the hub portion (10), and a plurality of substantially straight cutting edges (E1, E2) which are located at the periphery of the disc tool. The cultivating portion (11) has a plurality of undulations (111, 112) which, with an axial extent decreasing toward the inside, run from the cutting edges (E1, E2) to the hub portion (10). The cutting edge (LE1, E2) is designed such that 90-98% of a track formed by the cutting edge consists of straight track portions.

The document further discloses an agricultural implement with such disc tools, the use of such an agricultural implement, and a method for manufacturing such a disc tool.

Disk device for an agricultural machine

Variable Tooth Coulter Blade With Sized Inserts

A system and method cuts and increases surface area of surface stubble material while contemporaneously mulching, tiling and aerating the soil. A discoidal coulter blade is configured with sharpened areas at the circumference and one or more inside bevel for cutting the surface stubble as well as reducing the downward pressure required for the blade to enter the type and depth of soil desired. The bevel aids in coulter blade lifespan, ensuring a self-sharpened blade, and allows mating with a second coulter blade.
