TWO ROW AGRICULTURAL PLANTING IMPLEMENT
An agricultural planting implement includes a first wing toolbar configured to support a first set of row units. The first wing toolbar is configured to pivotally couple to a main frame of the agricultural planting implement. The agricultural planting implement also includes a second wing toolbar configured to support a second set of row units. In addition, the agricultural planting implement includes a connection assembly having at least one arm pivotally coupling the second wing toolbar to the first wing toolbar. The at least one arm is pivotally coupled to the first wing toolbar and non-pivotally coupled to the second wing toolbar. Furthermore, the connection assembly includes an actuator configured to drive the second wing toolbar to rotate relative to the first wing toolbar.
Agricultural machine and folding method for an agricultural machine
An agricultural machine includes two side units and a chassis that extends in a longitudinal direction and is equipped with two wheels, each side unit being fitted to pivot in relation to the chassis around a folding axis parallel to a median plane of the chassis. Each side unit includes a tool unit connected to the chassis by an arm and being able to occupy a work position in which the length of the tool unit extends transversely to the longitudinal direction. Each side unit is also able to occupy a transport position in which the length and width of the tool unit are parallel to the median plane. The machine includes a tilter articulated with the chassis around one tilting axis oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction, and in the transport position of the side units, each tool unit is closer to the median plane than the respective arm.
RIDING LAWN MOWER
A riding lawn mower having an adjustable cutting width has at least one front wheel, a plurality of rear wheels, a frame extending from the at least one front wheel to the plurality of rear wheels and a plurality of cutting decks, each cutting deck comprising a cutting blade. A motor is supported by the frame and configured to drive the cutting blades of the cutting decks. A support configured to couple the cutting decks to the frame. The support is configured to extend at least one of the cutting decks laterally from beneath the frame to adjust a cutting width provided by the blades.
IMPLEMENT WING CASTER WHEEL FOR TRANSPORT
An agricultural implement has a hitch frame, a center frame pivotally attached rearward of the hitch frame about a hitch pivot axis. Wing frames are pivotally attached to ends of the center frame and a center actuator is pivots the center and wing frames from a rearward extending operating position to an upward extending transport position. Caster wheels are pivotally mounted on front sides of the wing frames about caster and transport axes. In the operating position, the caster axes are oriented vertically and the transport axes are oriented horizontally, and in the initial transport position, the caster axes are oriented horizontally, perpendicular to the hitch pivot, the transport axes are oriented vertically, and caster wheel actuators pivot the caster wheels 90 degrees about the transport axes to align the caster axes with the hitch pivot axis. The caster wheels support the wing frames in both operating and transport positions.
IMPLEMENT WITH FOLDABLE TOOLBAR SYSTEM
An agricultural implement includes a frame having a longitudinal axis and laterally opposed sides and motive supports mounted to and supporting the frame. The agricultural implement further includes a first wing carried by the frame and at least one second wing, in which each second wing is pivotably connected to the first wing. The agricultural implement also includes an elevator mechanism configured to raise and lower the first wing and the second wing. Each second wing is connected to the first wing by a wing pivot assembly that includes a skewed hinge pivotably connecting one of the second wings to the first wing. The wing pivot assembly allows each second wing to pivot with respect to the first wing between an operating position and a transport position, in which the skewed hinge defines a first pivot axis oriented at an acute angle with respect to the longitudinal axis.
Cylinder bypass

The third port can be located in between the first port and the second port. The manifold can include a first valve and a second valve. The first valve can be in fluid communication with the first port and the third port. The second valve can be in fluid communication with the second port and the third port.
SUPPORT BEATER FOR AGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENT AND AGRICULTURAL EQUIPMENT
Presently described is a support stop (1) for agricultural equipment (2) comprising a support portion (10) to be secured on a first structural portion (20) of the agricultural equipment (2), and a portion of damping (11) configured to contact a second structural portion (21) of the agricultural equipment (2), allowing the structural portions to adequately support and absorb impacts that occur during the displacement of the equipment in the transport position. The present invention further relates to agricultural equipment provided with the aforementioned supporting stop.
Riding lawn mower
A riding lawn mower having an adjustable cutting width has at least one front wheel, a plurality of rear wheels, a frame extending from the at least one front wheel to the plurality of rear wheels and a plurality of cutting decks, each cutting deck comprising a cutting blade. A motor is supported by the frame and configured to drive the cutting blades of the cutting decks. A support configured to couple the cutting decks to the frame. The support is configured to extend at least one of the cutting decks laterally from beneath the frame to adjust a cutting width provided by the blades.
TILLAGE IMPLEMENT WITH AUXILIARY ROLLERS
A tillage implement has a frame connectable to a towing vehicle and at least two transverse rows of secondary tillage tools mounted on the frame, the at least two transverse rows comprising a row of main rollers mounted on the frame rearward of all other rows of the at least two transverse rows. The implement also has a transverse row of auxiliary rollers mounted rearward of the row of main rollers, the transverse row of auxiliary rollers independently pivotable vertically about a transverse pivot axis. The implement has at least one ground-engaging wheel. Independent pivoting of the row of auxiliary rollers allows an operator to increase tillage/field finish on the go or as needed.
