A frame control system for an agricultural implement includes a first sensor configured to be coupled to a sub-frame of the agricultural implement and directed toward a soil surface. The first sensor is configured to emit a first output signal toward the soil surface and to receive a first return signal indicative of a first height of the sub-frame above the soil surface. The frame control system also includes a first sub-frame actuator configured to be coupled to the sub-frame and to a main frame of the agricultural implement. The first sub-frame actuator is configured to control a first position of the sub-frame relative to the main frame along a vertical axis. In addition, the frame control system includes a controller configured to control the first sub-frame actuator such that a difference between the first height and a target height is less than a threshold value.

The proposed invention discloses a multipurpose agro-farming and gardening machine for earth pit digging, tilling, raking, soil bed preparation on plain terrains, as well as in sloppy terrains in hilly areas, weeding, manuring and seeding, with augers, raking rods, compost or manure and seed drop attachments for use in small farms and home gardening. Machine of the proposed invention comprises three rotary soil excavating augers (7) and a linear actuator (2) for driving the assembly of augers to dig into the soil for making pits or for making trenches with adjoining raised beds. Attachments enable adopt double digging practices for preparation of soil beds, manuring and seeding comprising [i] raking rods with spikes for deep digging and [ii] attachments for compost or manure drop and seed drop.

A hydraulic height control system controls all raising, lowering and folding movement of agricultural tillage equipment. The system includes a single hydraulic circuit utilizing non-rephase cylinders which allows for independent raising and lowering of the equipment frame sections and tool gangs. The hydraulic circuit also controls the folding of the frame wings between field and transport positions. Sensors monitor component positions. The hydraulic circuit also uses a common rail for providing fluid to the cylinders. The system achieves precise depth control in the high speed tilling agricultural environment by keeping the tilling components at the appropriate depth or operating position

An orientation control system for an agricultural implement includes a first sensor configured to be positioned at a left end portion of a frame. The first sensor is configured to emit a first output signal toward a soil surface and to receive a first return signal indicative of a first height of the left end portion. The orientation control system also includes a second sensor configured to be positioned at a right end portion of the frame. The second sensor is configured to emit a second output signal toward the soil surface and to receive a second return signal indicative of a second height of the right end portion. In addition, the orientation control system includes a controller configured to control first, second, and third actuators such that a difference between the first height and the second height is less than a threshold value.

A system for identifying plugging within an agricultural implement is provided. The system includes a ground engaging tool configured to be supported by the agricultural implement. A weight sensor is operable to measure a weight of one or both of the ground engaging tool and the agricultural implement. A controller is communicatively coupled to the weight sensor. The controller is configured to receive, from the weight sensor, a signal that corresponds to the weight of one or both of the ground engaging tool and the agricultural implement. The controller is further configured to determine when the ground engaging tool is plugged based at least in part on the signal from the weight sensor.

An agricultural device for soil processing with two sets of working rollers comprises a supporting frame, which comprises a central part, a left wing and a right wing. The left and right wings are rotatably attached to the central part. At least two rows of working units are attached to the supporting frame. The working units are arranged in regular distances in every row. A left set of rollers is attached to the left wing and a right set of rollers is attached to the right wing. The sets of rollers are divided into front rollers and rear rollers and provided with attachments and discs. 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. The distances between individual discs are the same along the whole width of the agricultural device. The discs of front rollers are located in the same plane as the working units.

A closing wheel assembly is provided for a row unit agricultural planter. The planter is configured to open a trench in the soil and the closing wheel assembly is configured to close the trench. A resilient flap is provided for firming and leveling the soil returned to the trench by the closing wheel assembly. Pivotally mounted offset closing wheels are also provided.

A methods for soil clod detection within a field is provided herein and can include receiving, with a computing system, data indicative of terrain variations within a region of an agricultural field. The region of the field is comprised of one or more adjacently positioned segments. The method can also include generating, with the computing system, a mean reference line. The method can further include calculating, with the computing system, a segment height for each of the one or more adjacently positioned segments. The method can also include determining, with the computing system, a presence of an object based on a deviation of one of the one or more segment heights being greater than a threshold height from the reference line.
