Agricultural implement with combined down force and depth control
An agricultural implement system includes a down force cylinder configured to apply a downward force to a row unit, and a depth control cylinder configured to vary a penetration depth of a ground engaging tool of the row unit. The agricultural implement system also includes a valve assembly in fluid communication with the down force cylinder and the depth control cylinder. The valve assembly is configured to automatically adjust the downward force by varying fluid pressure within the down force cylinder based on fluid pressure within the depth control cylinder.
EXTENDED-TYPE SUBSOILING POWDER RIDGE MACHINE AND SUBSOILING POWDER RIDGE MACHINE
The present invention discloses an extended-type subsoiling smash-ridging machine, comprising a machine body, a smash-ridging device, a connection device, a ditching device, a flattening device and a straw returning device, wherein the smash-ridging device comprises a smash-ridging box comprising a bottom plate, side plates and a top plate, lower bearing seats are mounted in the bottom plate, rib plates are welded between the lower bearing seats, lubricating oil passages are formed between rib plates and the bottom plate, an upper bearing seats are mounted on the top plate and the length of each lower bearing seat is larger than that of each upper bearing seat. By adopting the structure of the present invention, the strength of the lower bearing seats can be improved so as to facilitate the mounting of more bearing where the stress is large and less bearings where the stress is small, thereby both improving the rigidity and transmission stability of a transmission shaft and reducing the cost; the welding of the rib plates is facilitated, it is ensured that lubricating oil smoothly flows within the smash-ridging box and the lubricating effect is improved.

TRACTOR MOUNTED EXCAVATION IMPLEMENT ENHANCEMENTS AND EXPANSIONS
The objective of this application is to reveal enhancements and extensions of the previously patented Tractor-Mounted Excavation Implement, awarded Nov. 24, 2015 to Bruce Wade McGee, and assigned U.S. Pat. No. 9,194,103 B2. McGee's Tractor Mounted Excavation Implement is useful in small-scale construction, hobby farming or gardening, landscaping, irrigation, utilities and pipe laying, roadside or city development and maintenance in some areas, land-owner maintenance, and possibly firefighting with rapid excavation needs in some less dense forests. This application adds apparatuses to include usefulness in creating gardening or landscaping beds, and shallow graded excavations for sidewalk or simple slabs. Additionally, several other changes are proposed that enhance and extend usefulness of the implement, including improved power diversion to the implement's apparatuses, improved cutting element configuration, and an enhanced axle that more effectively loosens soil for excavation and sweeps excavated soil laterally.
Systems and methods for tilling ground materials
Systems and methods for tilling ground material are provided. According to one embodiment, a tiller system is provided comprising two coiled conical blades that penetrate ground material to provide both forward propulsion and tillage of the ground material. An operator of the tiller system can adjust the angle at which the coiled conical blades penetrate the ground material to achieve an optimal balance of forward propulsion, stability, and tillage of the ground material.
Dual function vibration isolation and handle swivel
A walk behind power equipment device includes a frame (or housing), an engine supported at least in part by the frame or housing, a mobility assembly operably coupled to the frame and to the engine to provide mobility of the walk behind power equipment device responsive to operation of the engine, a working assembly and a handle assembly. The working assembly is operably coupled to the frame and to the engine to facilitate performance of a working function of the walk behind power equipment device responsive to operation of the engine. The handle assembly is operably coupled to the frame via a handle coupler to provide steering inputs responsive to which the mobility assembly moves the walk behind power equipment device via a handle apparatus of the handle assembly. The handle coupler is configured to provide at least vibration isolation and handle apparatus orientation adjustment.

HYDROSTATIC AERATOR
A power system for a power machine with an aerator assembly can include a hydrostatic drive system with a hydraulic drive pump arranged to power a hydraulic drive motor. The power system can further include a hydrostatic aerator system with a hydraulic tine pump arranged to power a hydraulic tine motor.
STABLE OPERATION OF A DISC TILLAGE TOOL AT HIGH OPERATIONAL SPEEDS
A tillage tool achieves stability at higher speed ranges by providing stabilization with additional damping through damping elements on the front support wheels and on the constant level linkage and on the rear tool. The tillage tool maintains maximally one longitudinally positioned unsuspended load path to the ground provided by unsuspended depth gauging wheels longitudinally positioned parallel to a front to rear rocking axis to allow for constant settings throughout the depth, speed, and field condition ranges.
