Disclosed is a ground working apparatus comprising a ground working apparatus having: a frame having a plurality of wheels attached; at least one removable ground working attachment supported directly or indirectly by the frame; a means which is adapted to move the at least one removable ground working attachment between a storage configuration and a ground working configuration; and a vehicle connection means; the apparatus configured such that when in use and when connected to a vehicle via the vehicle connection means movement of the attached vehicle causes the attached apparatus to move in the same direction as the attached vehicle and if the at least one removable ground working attachment is in or is moved to the ground working configuration this results in the at least one removable ground working attachment working the ground it engages with.

An agricultural row cleaner having: a frame; a first row cleaner wheel disposed on a first side of the frame; a second row cleaner wheel disposed on a second side of the frame; and a row cleaner diverter connected to the frame and disposed forward of the first row cleaner wheel and the second row cleaner wheel in a direction of travel and disposed between the first row cleaner wheel and the second row cleaner wheel.

A row cleaner assembly includes an upper subframe mounted to an agricultural planter forward of the planter row unit and longitudinally aligned with the trench opening assembly. A lower subframe rotatably supports first and second row cleaner wheels. An intermediate subframe is pivotally connected at a forward end to the upper subframe and is pivotally connected at a rearward end to the lower subframe. A first and second linkages are pivotally connected at a forward end to the upper subframe and are pivotally connected at a rearward end to the lower subframe. An actuator system is capable of applying a downforce and an optional lift force to the lower subframe. The row cleaner assembly may include a gauge wheel supported by a rear strut subframe. The row cleaner assembly may include a depth selector to change the depth of penetration of the row cleaner wheels into the soil surface.

The present invention relates generally to agricultural tillage equipment and, more specifically, to a vertical tillage sweep providing low surface disturbance. The sweep comprises a wing structure with a downward and generally vertical fin, and having specific wear coating placed on the various wear surfaces.

A soil working tool, such as a cultivator tip, having a carrier which bears a primary cutting element and at least two secondary cutting elements on a cutter holder, wherein both the primary cutting element and the secondary cutting elements include a cutting edge. To optimize the penetration to achieve better cutting results, the cutting edges of the secondary cutting elements are arranged offset with respect to the cutting edges of the primary cutting element.

The field cultivating sweep includes a body with wings extending from a center line in opposite directions, and a conditioning element extending downwardly from the wing body. The conditioning element may be a blade extending vertically downwardly along the center line of the body and having a leading edge sloped rearedly from front to back. In alternative embodiments, the conditioning element may have a triangular or rectangular shape or may be in the form of a fluted coulter. The conditioning element acts to till the ground vertically and break up compacted soil as the sweep is drawn along the ground.

A soil-working device for the agricultural preparation of earth, in particular for the planar cutting of earth, including a main body and cutting elements arranged on the latter, the main body having a carrier face and a sliding face, cutting elements being arranged on the carrier face, and earth being able to slide off over the sliding face. To avoid smearing over a soil when working same, the sliding face adjoins the carrier face at an angle so that the distance of the sliding face from the earth increases away from the carrier face.
