AUTOMATED FARMING SYSTEMS
An automated farming system includes a frame. The frame includes a fixed base, a beam, and a support. A farming implement support extends from the beam and moves up and down in relation to the beam. The farming implement support moves along a length of the beam. The movable support includes a propulsion system and is configured to rotate around the fixed base. Movement of the farming implement support and the movable support allows for high density planting of crops in hexagonal patterns and/or a continuous spiral pattern.

Operation set for a mobile tool-bearing head for agricultural operation machinery
An operation set is provided for a mobile tool-bearing for agricultural operation machines, which allows for the application of phytosanitary products or the survey of information from a crop surface formed by the traveling of a self-impelled irrigation machine. The set includes a plurality of modules installed consecutively one after the other thus covering the whole length of the self-impelled irrigation machine, each one having a scanning tool that may be a nozzle and/or a sensor that applies the programmed dose as it is displaced along the section, and these modules being linked to each other by a motor cable covering all the length of an irrigation machine or the greenhouse, and which travels in both directions in an alternate manner, since the movement is achieved as the motor cable is linked to a synchronic belt on at least one point.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR IRRIGATING AGRICULTURAL FIELDS
A system for irrigating an agricultural field includes a high-clearance vehicle (e.g., a sprayer vehicle) and a hose configured to connect an external water source to the high-clearance vehicle while the high-clearance vehicle traverses the agricultural field. A method for irrigating an agricultural field includes connecting an external water source to a high-clearance vehicle by a hose, and dispensing water from the nozzles of the high-clearance vehicle while the external water source remains connected thereto and while the high-clearance vehicle traverses the agricultural field.
Autonomous Integrated Farming System
A farming system includes a field engagement unit. The field engagement unit includes a support assembly. The support assembly includes one or more work tool rail assemblies. The field engagement unit additionally includes one or more propulsion units which provide omnidirectional control of the field engagement unit. The field engagement unit additionally includes one or more work tool assemblies. The one or more work tool assemblies are actuatable along the one or more work tool rail assemblies. The farming system additionally includes a local controller. The local controller includes one or more processors configured to execute a set of program instructions stored in memory. The program instructions are configured to cause the one or more processors to control one or more components of the field engagement unit.
VEHICLE FOR CULTIVATION AND TRANSPORTATION
Vehicles having the versatility to be used as farm vehicles while also being able to be used as a transportation method, such as a motorcycle, are provided. The vehicles can generally include a three-wheel configuration in which first and second drive wheels are substantially vertically aligned, and the third wheel is offset from the vertically aligned drive wheels. The third wheel can be aligned with the second wheel, or it can be disposed at a location that is between the first and second wheels while still being offset from the vertical alignment. A tool for performing farming actions is also provided. In some instances the tool can be laterally offset from the vertically aligned wheels, located between the drive wheels, while in other instances the tool can be disposed distal of the rear wheel. Many vehicle and tool configurations are disclosed, as are methods for operating the same.
Sand bunker rake and infield groomer apparatus
A sand bunker rake/infield groomer vehicle having a frame; a plurality of wheels to traverse a driven surface, wherein the wheels are rotatably mounted to the frame; a power source mounted to the frame; and a rear attachment structure attached to the frame, wherein the rear attachment structure provides a joint enabling rotation; a bracket including a shaft wherein the bracket is configured to cooperate with an associated rake/grooming attachment; and a pivoting bracket mounted to the frame.
