An agricultural tillage implement including a main frame section having a pull hitch tube extending in a travel direction, which may be a telescoping pull hitch tube, a plurality of pivotally coupled wing sections coupled with the main frame section, and a plurality of pivoting wing front shank frames. Draft linkage assemblies connect the plurality of pivotally coupled wing sections to the telescoping pull hitch tube, while allowing both the pivoting wing front shank frames and the plurality of pivotally coupled wing sections to articulate correctly. The main shank frame, the pivotal wing front shank frames, and the wing sections articulate from an operating configuration to a transport configuration.

A farm implement supported by at least one wheeled support mounted on a pivot arm extending from a wing and at least one tracked support on a main carrier. The tracked support can be rotated about a primary rotational axis and the wheeled support being rotatable about a secondary rotational axis. The pivot arm can be rotated to position the wheeled support to elevate or lower the wing. The rotational of the pivot arm also changes the alignment of the secondary rotational axis of the winged support relative to the primary rotational axis of the tracked support to prevent berming when maneuvering the farm implement.

An agricultural tillage implement for use in a field. The agricultural tillage implement including a frame section and a plurality of wing sections. The frame section has a pull hitch extending in a travel direction. Each of the plurality of wing sections are coupled to the frame section and/or a wing section. The wing sections each have an articulated portion pivotal about an axis substantially perpendicular to the travel direction.

A wide area turf mower (10) has a wheel supported main frame (12) and cutting units (22, 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34) movably connected to the main frame (12) and positioned in rows (36, 38, 40) in a staggered order to form a mower cutting configuration for cutting a continuous swath of turf between any two outer cutting units (26, 32) located respectively on opposite sides of the main frame (12). One row (38) of the cutting units comprises a first pair of interconnected outer and inner cutting units (26, 28) at a first side (18) of the main frame (12) and a second pair of interconnected inner and outer cutting units (30, 32) at the second side (20) of the main frame (12). The inner cutting units (28, 30) are pivotally connected to the main frame and the outer cutting units (26, 32) are pivotally connected to a respective inner cutting unit (28, 30). Hydraulic cylinders (42, 44) cause the outer cutting units (26, 32) to fold in a direction towards the rear end of the main frame (12). Hydraulic cylinders (50, 52) cause the inner cutting units (28, 30) to lift in an upward direction. A controller operates all of the hydraulic cylinders.

A stowable flail curtain for blocking debris flailed by a conditioner of an agricultural mower when in use. The flail curtain includes a sheet of material, a first arched support arm coupled between the sheet at a first attachment point and the trail frame, a second arched support arm coupled between the sheet at a second attachment point and the trail frame, and first and second actuation mechanisms coupled to the first and second arched support arms, respectively, and to the trail frame to move the sheet between a deployed position that blocks debris flailed by the conditioner when in use and a stowed position under the trail frame.

The present document discloses an agricultural implement comprising a first frame section (10), a portion (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b), which is moveable relative to the first frame section, and an actuator (15a, 15b, 16a, 16b, 215) for controlling a relative movement between the first frame section (10) and the portion (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b). The agricultural implement has a first sensor (20, 220), arranged to provide a first value corresponding to the angle of the first frame section relative to a predetermined reference plane or a predetermined reference direction, and a second sensor (21, 22), arranged to provide a second value corresponding to the angle of the portion relative to the predetermined reference plane or the predetermined reference direction. Said reference plane or reference direction is defined in relation to a direction of gravity.
