Agricultural field preparation device
An agricultural device associated with reduced tillage techniques in a field includes a frame and a separator supported by the frame. The separator is configured to form a strip of exposed soil in residual plant matter in the field. A crimping device associated with the separator is configured to at least partially crush stems of residual plant matter while maintaining the strip.
Notched Compactor Cleaner Finger
A cleaner finger assembly for cleaning compactor teeth on a compactor wheel of a compactor machine includes at least one cleaner finger assembly. The cleaner finger assembly includes a cleaner finger stack and a plurality of fasteners for mounting the cleaner finger stack. The cleaner finger stack includes at least one cleaner finger with a longitudinal axis, a tip for engaging a compactor wheel surface, and a plurality of mounting apertures. The cleaner finger also includes a notch extending from an edge of the cleaner finger toward the longitudinal axis. The cleaner finger failing at the location of the notch when the cleaner finger tip is engaged by debris with a tension force greater than a tip anchor tension capacity of the finger tip anchoring mechanism.
Rolling basket internal scraper
A basket rotates about a basket axis with respect to an implement frame when moving in a direction of travel. The basket includes first and second end plates and a plurality of blades extending therebetween. The blades engage the ground surface as the basket rotates and each include a first end and a second end positioned closer to the basket than the first end. The basket defines an internal volume between the first and second end plates and the second ends of the blades. An internal scraper is positioned within the internal volume of the basket such that a portion of the internal scraper extends rearward of a vertical plane extending through the basket axis in the direction of travel and vertically away from the ground surface above a horizontal second plane extending through the basket axis. The internal scraper extends at an acute angle with respect to horizontal.
Agricultural Device For Processing Soil With Two Sets Of Working Rollers
Agricultural device for soil processing with two sets of working rollers comprising a supporting frame, which comprises a central part, a left wing and a right wing, wherein the left and right wing are rotatably attached to the central part, at least two rows of working units attached to the supporting frame, wherein the working units are arranged in regular distances in every row, a left set of rollers attached to the left wing and a right set of rollers attached to the right wing, wherein the sets of rollers are divided into front rollers and rear rollers and provided with attachments and discs, wherein the discs on the sets are located between these attachments. The number of discs of rear rollers differs exactly by one disc from the number of discs of front rollers, wherein the distances between individual discs are the same along the whole width of the agricultural device, and wherein the discs of front rollers are located in the same plane as the working units.

STALK PULLER
A stalk puller to be used with or without a mower/shredder utilizes a pair of independently mounted discs converging along their lower edge to grasp and pull stalks from the ground as the stalk puller is moved down the row by a prime mover. At least one of the discs is urged against the other by a spring such that the associated disc may allow rocks and debris to pass between the discs without damage. The spring mounting reduces adjustments due to normal wear as well as damage from debris.
CULTIVATOR
A cultivator is provided for cultivating a field. The cultivator can have a frame with a tow assembly so that the cultivator can be towed by a tractor. A cultivating assembly can be provided pivotally attached to the rear of the frame. The cultivating assembly can have a plurality of discs that engage and penetrate the soil beneath the cultivating assembly. The cultivating assembly can have a center section pivotally connected at the to the rear end of the frame, a first wing section pivotally connected to one side of the center section, a second wing pivotally connected the other side of center section where all the sections have discs connected to them. A pair of ground wheels can be provided connected to the center section so that the ground wheels are positioned in front of the cultivating assembly when it is being used to cultivate a field.
CUTTING DEVICE FOR COMMINUTING CROP RESIDUES OR PLANT PARTS
A cutting device for comminuting crop residues or catch crops on agricultural land is described. The cutting device is designed to be rotatable around a center longitudinal axis (MLA) and, to this, it has at least one bearing unit for rotatably mounting. The cutting device includes first and second respectively elongated cutting blade element, as well as at least one holding means for holding the cutting blade elements. The elongated cutting blade elements each comprise a cutting edge section and a connecting section lying opposite to the cutting edge section and are radially orientated in such a way that the cutting edge sections of the elongated cutting edge sections are arranged at a radial distance from the center longitudinal axis. The cutting blade elements are directly connected to each other with the aid of the holding means, wherein the connecting sections of the cutting blade elements are arranged directly adjoining one another in a center region of the cutting device receiving the center longitudinal axis (MLA).
