CUTTING MACHINE INCLUDING AN IMPROVED ARTICULATION MECHANISM
An agricultural machine comprising a connecting structure designed to be laterally mounted to a tractor, the connecting structure including a coupling support, a carrier beam and a transmission unit; the transmission unit including a driving pulley, a driven pulley, a transmission element drive-mounted on the driving and driven pulleys; a work unit articulated to the carrier beam via at least one folding axis, the work unit being fitted with at least one work tool configured to be driven in rotation from the transmission unit. In this machine, the folding axis and the rotation axis of the driven pulley are separate from each other.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MOUNTING A FLAIL MOWER
A method and apparatus for attaching a forward-mounted implement that may allow pivotal movement of the implement around a longitudinal axis to better maintain proper operational height when operating on uneven or sloped terrain. Further provided, the attachment mechanism of the present disclosure may allow for a secure and safe attachment to an associated tractor or other similar vehicle while simultaneously providing for a reduced production cost and less maintenance requirements.

Agricultural working device
An agricultural working device, such as a mulcher, is improved with a working rotor which is driven by a drive shaft and a cutting rail with a cutting edge which can be directed towards the working rotor. Sensors for acquiring parameters of working rotor and/or cutting rail are provided. An electronic control apparatus is provided with at least one encoder to set the cutting rail. A method for setting the position of a cutting rail of a working device, such as a mulcher, relative to a working rotor, is configured in such a way that the rotational speed of a drive shaft and the rotational speed of the working rotor are measured and compared with one another. When a ratio of the rotational speeds differs by a predefined threshold, a change in the position of the cutting rail is brought about.

Agricultural mowing device
A mowing device for mowing material between rows of planted crops in an agricultural field, comprising a series of mower assemblies attached to a tractor and spaced from each other so that each mower assembly is located between an adjacent pair of rose of a printed crop. Multiple blades are mounted for rotation on each mower assembly for cutting material growing in the space between adjacent pairs of rows of a planted crop. A first deflector in front of each mower assembly moves planted crops around the outside of the mower assemblies so as not to be cut by the mower assemblies. A second deflector may be provided within each mower assembly and located rearwardly of the blades to push mowed material laterally toward the adjacent rows of a planted crop.

Lawnmower cutting deck with angled cutter shafts
A lawnmower cutting deck (1) is disclosed, wherein the cutting deck (1) is configured to be moved in a forward direction (d1) over a ground surface (5) to cut grass. The cutting deck (1) comprises at least a first cutter shaft (7.1) and at least one cutting unit (9) arranged on the first cutter shaft (7.1). The first cutter shaft (7.1) is configured to rotate around a first rotational axis (ax1) extending substantially parallel to the ground surface (5) to rotate the at least one cutting unit (9) in a first rotational plane (p1). The first rotational plane (p1) is angled in relation to the forward direction (d1). The present disclosure further relates to a lawnmower (3, 3) comprising a lawnmower cutting deck (1) and a method (100) of mowing a lawn.
