A pneumatic manifold is provided for a folding toolbar for use with seed planters having pneumatic seed metering devices. The manifold is formed within the tubular center section and opposite folding wings of the toolbar. A flexible coupler is provided at each wing hinge juncture to provide air flow through the toolbar wings and the center section, while allowing the toolbar to fold and unfold between the transport and field positions.

An agricultural implement system includes a tow bar configured to couple to a hitch assembly. The agricultural implement system also includes a first wing tool bar rotatable relative to the tow bar and disposed proximate to a first side of the tow bar. The first wing tool bar has a first send proximate to the first side of the tow bar and a second end opposite the first end. Further, the agricultural implement system includes a caster wheel assembly having a caster wheel pivotally coupled to a sub-frame. The first sub-frame is pivotally coupled to the first wing tool bar proximate to the second end of the first wing tool bar, and is coupled to the first wing tool bar such that the axis of rotation of the sub-frame extends through the first wing tool bar.

A towable implement that is shiftable between a wide field configuration and a narrow transport configuration using a folding tongue and vertically adjustable transport wheels. Shifting of the towable implement between the field and transport configurations can be accomplished primarily by hydraulic power, with little or no manual manipulation of implement components being required.

An agricultural implement with a main frame and wing assemblies, wherein the wing assemblies are configured to move between an operational position and a stowed position via an actuator, which is coupled to a main frame of the implement and coupled to the wing assembly. The implement also includes a coupling mechanism that couples the main frame, the actuator, and the wing frame assembly. The coupling mechanism is also moveably coupled to at least the main frame. The coupling mechanism ma move relative to the main frame about a main frame axis, wherein the main frame axis is positioned between a horizontal and vertical position.

An example work machine generally includes a main section, a pair of inner wings, a pair of outer wings, a pair of flippers, a work assembly, a ground interface assembly, and a height control assembly. The flippers are pivotable relative to the outer wings about axes that extend in a direction transverse to the travel direction of the work machine. Each flipper includes at least one corresponding work component and at least one corresponding ground interface mechanism. The height control assembly is operable to adjust heights of the work components relative to a ground surface.

A mode of a bracing system applicable to a modular chassis for agricultural machines and implements, which considerably attenuates or reduces shear and bending effects on the joints (A) between the modular sections of the tilting lateral chassis during the respective working operations of the agricultural machine/implement. A bracing structure (1) made up of a supporting tower (2) arranged transversally and horizontally aligned facing the respective joint (A) between adjacent sections, the section closest (B) to the central drawbar (F) of the machine and the immediately adjacent section (D), adjustable tie rods (3) being arranged at the top of tower (2), the ends of which are rigidly connected to and draw these adjacent sections (B) and (D); the supporting tower (2) being tilted to a vertical position, under the action of an actuator or actuators (4) when the machine is switched from the working position to the transport position.
