The multi-lobed wheel having a wheel hub including a central axis on which the multi-lobed wheel is configured to rotate and a plurality of spaced apart lobes defining an outer perimeter configured to make ground engaging contact with the agricultural field, the outer perimeter including structure presenting a plurality of gaps between the plurality of spaced apart lobes, the gaps shaped and sized to provide sufficient clearance for individual plants within a planted crop row so as to enable the multi-lobed wheel to pass over a planted crop row without crushing the individual plants therein.

A unit (UO) for the processing ground (T), comprises at least a first group (G1, D3) for supporting rotating cutting disk means (D) adapted to realize grooves (S) in said ground (T); at least a second group (G2) for supporting plowshare means (V, E) adapted to realize, in correspondence of said grooves (S), cuts (Z) below the surface of said ground (T); and mechanical coupling means (M2) for dynamically connecting said second group (G2) to said first group (G1, D3).

Presently described is a damping element (1) for supporting a disc (2) of agricultural equipment, the damping element (1) comprising at least one flange (10) arranged on at least one of its longitudinal ends and allowing a adequate arrangement of the damping element in the intermediary between the disc holder and the chassis of the agricultural equipment, preventing its translation or escape from the intermediary of these two parts.

A jump arm assembly for a tilling machine includes a jump arm and a disc hub assembly. The jump arm has a first end coupled to a frame unit of the tilling machine and a second end opposite the first end. The disc hub assembly includes a an arm end configured to be fixedly secured to the second end of the jump arm, and an opposing disc end. A first plane defined by the arm end of the disc hub assembly is arranged in non-parallel relation with respect to a second plane defined by the disc end of the disc hub assembly.

A jump arm assembly for a tilling machine includes a jump arm and a disc hub assembly for coupling a tilling disc to the jump arm. The jump arm has a first end configured to be coupled to a frame unit of the tilling machine and a second end opposite the first end. The disc hub assembly includes a hub housing and a shaft having a first axial shaft section and a second axial shaft section. The first axial shaft section is configured to be rotatably mounted within the hub housing. The second axial shaft section extends outwardly from the hub housing and is at least partially threaded to receive a threaded nut to secure the tilling disc to the disc hub assembly.

A tilling machine includes a frame having a jump arm frame unit and a plurality of jump arm assemblies supported along a length of the jump arm frame unit such that a lateral gap is defined between each adjacent pair of jump arm assemblies of the plurality of jump arm assemblies. Additionally, the tilling machine includes a plurality of jump arm spacers, with each jump arm spacer being provided in operative association with a clamp unit of a respective jump arm assembly of the plurality of jump arm assemblies to maintain the lateral gap between each adjacent pair of jump arm assemblies.

A jump arm apparatus for a tilling machine includes a jump arm frame unit having a triangular transverse cross-section and a plurality of jump arms assemblies coupled to the jump arm frame unit. Each jump arm unit includes a jump arm having first and second ends, with the first end coupled to be coupled to the jump arm frame unit via a clamp unit and the second end configured to be coupled to a tilling disc.

An apparatus for clearing trash from a soil surface, the apparatus being configured to be mounted on a towable frame support and driven across the soil surface in a direction of travel (“D”), the apparatus comprising: a bearing housing; and a soil-engaging member rotatably mounted to the support, wherein the soil-engaging member is oriented to rotate about an axis (“A”) tilted from a perpendicular to the soil surface (“B”) by an acute angle (Φ1) towards one lateral side relative to the direction of travel (“D”), whereby contact between the soil-engaging member and the soil surface induces rotation of the soil-engaging member around the axis (“A”).

A link assembly (3) for an agricultural ground engaging chain (1) including a plurality of link assemblies, the link assembly including: a first component (7) having a first clamping portion (21) and a first link portion (13) for linking with a link portion of an adjacent link assembly; a second component (9) having a second clamping portion (27) and a second link portion (15) for linking with a link portion of an adjacent link assembly; a harrow member (5) has a first side (17) and an opposite second side (19); at least one resilient spring plate (22) wherein the resilient spring plate is elastically deformable, and at least one fastening element (11). The resilient spring plate urges the first and second components (7, 9) to retain the components of the link assembly together.
