An electric tractor including one or more all-electric bidirectional force exerting three-point hitch assemblies for lifting and lowering farm tool implements in level relationship to the ground regardless of the elevation of lift applied to the implement. The front, middle and rear three-point hitch assemblies are each operated using linear actuators. The hitches may be coupled with battery boxes to provide power and to counterbalance attached farm implements. Each of the described three-point hitch assemblies (including embodiments for front, middle and rear positions) may be operated through manipulation of electric controls. Electronic components include controller, displays, panels, wiring harnesses, linear actuators, joy sticks, lighting, switches, gauges, electric battery management system for managing one or more power sources, and processing modules and memory for controlling hitch movement and implements. The three-point hitch assemblies enable work in the front, middle and rear areas of the tractor.

The invention concerns an air-moving device (10) for pollinating at least one recipient plant using pollen collected on at least one donor plant, comprising: a means (12) for collecting pollen from said at least one donor plant, a means (14) for distributing pollen on at least one recipient plant, a channel for conveying the pollen collected from the collecting means (12) to the distributing means (14), an air flow amplifier (18) which employs Coanda effect for inducing a flow of air inside the conveying channel (16) from the means (12) for collecting the pollen to the means (14) for distributing the pollen.

The invention also concerns a pneumatic deflector for deflecting the Coanda effect flow of pollen disposed at the level of the pollen distributing means (14).

A work vehicle (1) comprises a coupling apparatus (18) for coupling an attachment to the forward end (8) of the work vehicle (1). The coupling apparatus (18) comprises a three point linkage mechanism having a pair of lower coupling elements (19) and an upper coupling element (25). A first carrier element (22) is pivotally coupled to a forward chassis part (14) of the work vehicle (1) by a pair of main transverse pivot shafts (35) which define a main transverse pivot axis (33). A second carrier element (23) carries the lower coupling elements (19) and is pivotally coupled to the forward chassis part (14) about the main transverse pivot axis (33) and about a main longitudinal pivot axis (45). A main longitudinal pivot shaft (46) extending rigidly from the second carrier element (23) pivotally engages the first carrier element (22) and terminates in a swivel bearing (50) which pivotally and swivelably couples the main longitudinal pivot shaft (46) to an intermediate transverse pivot shaft (54) which also defines the main transverse pivot axis (33), so that the second carrier element (23) and the first carrier element (22) are pivotal about the main transverse pivot axis (33), and the second carrier element (23) is pivotal about the main longitudinal pivot axis (45) to facilitate upward and downward movement of an attachment coupled to the coupling apparatus (18) about the main transverse pivot axis (33) and tilting movement of the attachment about the main longitudinal pivot axis (45).

A mower system comprising a powered mower, a connecting device connected to the powered mower and an attachment connected to the powered mower through the connecting device for conducting specified function during the operation of the mower system. The connecting device includes a mounting assembly mounted to the powered mower and a base rotatably mounted to the mounting assembly for driving the attachment being rotated together with the base in a horizontal plane relative to the powered mower. The utilization rate of the powered mower is effectively improved because other working functions can be conducted by the attachment which is connected to the powered mower through the connecting device.

The invention relates to an adjusting device, which includes a lifting device for adjusting a position of an attachment in use and a locking mechanism. The lifting device is switched between a locking position and a free position under a locking action of the locking mechanism, the lifting device drives the attachment to move to a first position when the lifting device is in the locking position; and the lifting device drives the attachment to move to a second position so as to work when the lifting device is in the free position. The adjusting device of the present invention has a simple structure, a low production cost, an easy maintenance, and a garden tool using the adjusting device can conveniently and quickly adjust the position of the attachment connected to the garden tool.

An attachment system for an agricultural vehicle including a feeder housing and a header. The attachment system includes at least one feeder connecting member configured for being located on and movably connected to the feeder housing, and at least one header connecting member configured for being located on the header. The at least one feeder connecting member is automatically connectable and securable to the at least one header connecting member as the feeder housing lifts the header.

An autonomous agricultural system comprising an implement configured to perform an agricultural operation. The system additionally comprises an autonomous power unit for autonomously propelling the implement. The system further comprises a coupling assembly configured to connect the implement to the power unit. The coupling assembly provides at least six degrees of freedom of movement between the implement and the power unit.

A belt-driven attachment system is disclosed. The attachment system includes a mobile power unit with a drive pulley and a power unit interface for connection of an attachment. The attachment includes at least one driven pulley and a first belt guide to maintain the belt aligned with the at least one driven pulley when tension on the belt is released. The attachment also includes an idler pulley and an idler position assembly coupled to the idler pulley. The idler position assembly provides a first position setting for the idler pulley in which tension on the belt is maintained and a second position setting for the idler pulley in which tension on the belt is released. The attachment also includes a second belt guide to maintain the belt aligned with the idler pulley when tension on the belt is released.
