STRIP FRESHENER ASSEMBLY
20230354729 · 2023-11-09 ·

A strip freshener is disclosed that includes a tine having a retention portion and a tooth. The tine is received in a cavity in a mounting member, and the retention portion of the tine is retained by a retaining member that is removably connected to the mounting member. A sleeve is fixedly connected to the mounting member and is connected to a frame. The frame has a spindle assembly that is configured to rotate the sleeve. The frame also has a toe angle assembly and a camber assembly that are configured to adjust the toe angle and camber of the sleeve, respectively, in relation to the frame. The strip freshener can be used to prepare a narrow strip of soil for planting by breaking up the soil, mixing it with air, and adding fertilizer.

System and method for rotationally driving ground engaging tools of an agricultural implement
11140803 · 2021-10-12 · ·

A system for rotationally driving ground engaging tools of an agricultural implement may include a rotational actuator configured to rotationally drive a ground engaging tool of the implement about a rotational axis. A controller may be configured to determine a current ground speed of the implement based on data received from a sensor. Moreover, the controller may be further configured to determine a rotational output for the rotational actuator based on the current ground speed of the implement such that the tool rotates at a predetermined rotational speed relative to soil within a field. In addition, the controller may be configured to control the operation of the rotational actuator such that the actuator provides the determined rotational output to the tool while the tool is disposed at a working position relative to a soil surface of the field.
