A land plane that may be moved over an agricultural field to smooth any irregularities in the surface of the field is pulled by a tow vehicle and has a blade assembly in a general diamond shape. The general diamond shape may be between 30 and 35 feet wide and 35 and 40 feet long. Thus, the land plane may have a sufficient length for drag and earth moving capability to economically and properly level a field, and a sufficient width to cover a substantially large area in single pass over the field. Further, the land plane may have foldable wing sections that enable the land plane to be transported over a typical state or county road or highway.

A system for monitoring an installation status of shank attachment members of agricultural implements may include a shank assembly. The shank assembly may have a shank and at least one mounting element configured to couple the shank to a portion of an agricultural implement. The system may further include a shank attachment member coupled to the shank and a signal transmission device provided in operative association with the shank attachment member. The system may further include an antenna provided in operative association with the shank assembly, where the antenna is configured to receive wireless signals transmitted by the signal transmission device. Additionally, the system may include a controller communicatively coupled to the antenna and configured to determine an installation status of the shank attachment member based at least in part on the wireless signals received by the antenna.

Provided is an earth working tool assembly comprising: a tool shank having a leading end portion; an earth working tip having a trailing end portion that is detachably engageable with the leading end portion of the tool shank; and a fastening assembly for detachably fastening the earth working tip to the tool shank. The fastening assembly comprises: a trailing connector that is connectable to the tool shank; a leading connector that is connectable to the earth working tip; a spring mounting mechanism interposed between the trailing and leading connectors. The spring mounting mechanism is configured so that the trailing and leading connectors can be driven away from each other against a bias of the spring mounting mechanism, into and out of an operative condition in which the spring mounting mechanism acts to retain the earth working tip and the tool shank in engagement with each other.

The disclosure relates to a tool change system for agricultural ground cultivating machines, comprising: a ground cultivation tool, which is designed to be moved through soil for ground cultivation; a tool carrier, on which the ground cultivation tool is arranged; and a locking device; wherein the ground cultivation tool and the tool carrier together form an engagement mechanism, by means of which the ground cultivation tool and the tool carrier can be non-destructively and releasably brought into engagement with one another.

The present invention relates to a tool system for an agricultural ground cultivating machine having a base part which communicates, by means of a releasable connection, with a carrier element, in particular with a tine of the agricultural ground cultivating machine, wherein the base part comprises a cutter and, adjoining the cutter, at least one hard material element, and wherein the carrier element comprises, in its end region pointing in the operating direction, laterally arranged wing shares which are fitted with hard metal plates. In this case, it is provided that the edge of the wing share which is fitted with hard metal plates runs up to a lateral surface of the carrier element. The present invention additionally relates to an associated wing coulter. The tool system has reduced wear and tear and consequently extended changing intervals.

A locking device (3) for a wearing part (2) detachably attached to a soil-working working element (1) by means of quick-coupling elements (11, 21), wherein a locking element (31) attached to the working element (1) includes an end portion (312) projecting from the working element (1) and being provided with an engagement section (313) arranged to engage with a lock-receiving element (22) arranged on a lee-side face (2a) of the wearing part (2).

A convertible box blade scraper apparatus includes a frame assembly including a first sidewall, a second sidewall, one or more shank support cross-members, a first blade support cross-member having a first scraper blade secured thereto, a second blade support cross-member extending between and secured to the first sidewall and the second sidewall, and having a second scraper blade and a leveling blade secured thereto, and a moldboard support cross-member, the moldboard support cross-member having a moldboard support longitudinal center axis. The apparatus further includes an elongated moldboard having an arc-shaped front surface that extends between a moldboard top edge and a moldboard bottom edge, the moldboard including one or more pivot arms rotatably coupled to the moldboard support cross-member to provide the moldboard with a pivot axis, wherein the pivot axis is coincident with the moldboard support longitudinal center axis, and further including a hitch assembly.

Agricultural implements typically include ground-engaging tools, such as replaceable shanks and shank attachment members (e.g., tillage points), to condition the soil of a field. Unfortunately, when a shank attachment member falls off or otherwise decouples from its respective shank during operation, the shank attachment member is typically difficult to find and expensive to replace. The shank may also need to be replaced if the implement is operated for an extended period without a shank attachment member. As such, an agricultural implement includes radar sensors configured to emit output signals directed at a portion of a field positioned aft of the shanks and to receive reflections of the output signals as echo signals, and a computing system configured to determine when the shank attachment member has detached from the shank based on the echo signals.

An agricultural tillage system including a carriage frame assembly, a plurality of tillage elements coupled to the carriage frame assembly, an actuator and a residue reactive system. The actuator is moveably coupled to the tillage elements, and is directly in control of a soil contact depth of the tillage elements. The residue reactive system is in controlling communication with the at least one actuator. The residue reactive system reduces the soil contact depth of the tillage elements when the residue mass on the soil is reduced and/or the slope of the soil is above a predetermined value.
