Swather rake attachment assembly and hay handling system
A swather rake attachment assembly that quick connects to a front of a swather and includes two rake arms that each include lateral holding arm pivot connections to a base frame where the lateral arms are each pivotally coupled to arched reinforcement members by a torsion assembly that is coupled to a parabolic curved tool bar that includes the parabolic curved tool bar and arched reinforcement members, and includes a Z-bar coupling of the two rake arms together that control the height of the arm rake assemblies.
SIMPLIFIED HAYMAKING MACHINE WITH A CARRIER
The present invention relates to an agricultural haymaking machine comprising a chassis resting on the ground by at least one wheel and intended to be coupled to a tractor able to move the machine in a direction of advance, a carrier carrying a plurality of rotors being swivel mounted to the chassis around a central pin oriented transversally to the direction of advance, each rotor being driven around a respective drive axis, and a lift actuator, articulated to the chassis on one hand and to the carrier on another hand, being able to make the carrier pivot around the central pin relative to the chassis, the machine being able to adopt a headland configuration in which the carrier is raised, as well as a work configuration in which the carrier rests on the ground by means of at least one support. The central pin is rigidly attached to the carrier, and the machine comprises a positioning actuator able to move the central pin relative to the chassis to change the position of the drive axes relative to the ground.
RAKE FRAME WITH HINGE JOINT CONNECTING FRONT AND REAR FRAME SECTIONS
A rake frame subassembly includes a front frame segment and a rear frame segment connected by a hinge joint having two or more hinges and an adjustment element. The hinge joint connects or is configured to connect the front frame section and the rear frame section. The hinge joint is also configured to enable both an orientation of the rear frame section relative to the front frame section and a position of the rear frame section relative to the front frame section to be adjusted using the adjustment element, or is configured to enable a position of the rear frame section relative to the front frame section to be adjusted using the adjustment element.
Agricultural working tools
A towed agricultural working tool with a central frame element, a headstock and left and right hand side frame elements connected to the central frame element, each of the side elements supporting at least one processing unit, the central frame element being connected at, at least one connecting location for pivoting movement with respect to the headstock in which one or more friction elements are arranged between the central frame element and the headstock at one of the at least one connecting locations. This has as an advantage that the pivoting movement of the central frame with respect to the headstock, in particular due to induced yaw, is reduced.
Agricultural implement
An agricultural implement including a central chassis member having a support structure with support arms connected to the support structure for movement between a working position and a transport position, the support arms having operating elements defining a working width between the operating elements and the main chassis member. The support arms are adjustable in the working position between a length corresponding to minimum working width and a length greater than the minimum working width. In the transport position a distance between the operating elements and the main chassis member is less than the minimum working width. A first stop defines the position of the minimum working width and a second stop arranged vertically with respect to the first stop retains the support arm in the transport position when the distance between the operating elements and the main chassis member is less than the minimum working width.

WORKING MACHINE AND WORKING DEVICE
A raking machine includes a traveling vehicle, a rake coupled to the traveling vehicle to rake grass in an agricultural field and form a swath, a sensor to obtain a state of the grass or the swath in the agricultural field, and a controller to change, when the rake performs raking, setting information regarding the rake based on the state obtained by the sensor.

AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT
An agricultural implement is described comprising a chassis, a rotor mounted thereon that is rotatable about an upright axis and comprises working tools, a hydraulic lifting device for raising the chassis between a work position and a transport position, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the height of the rotor for the work position. The lifting device is arranged underneath the rotor and is connected to a hydraulic line that is run from top to bottom through the rotor. The adjustment mechanism comprising a tubular actuating element surrounding the hydraulic line or forming sections thereof with at least one axial adjustment thread mutually supporting the rotor and the chassis and an operating device arranged above the rotor for axially turning the actuating element.
Towed agricultural implement
A towed agricultural implement includes one or more processing units each supported on a chassis, in which each chassis supports at least one processing unit on a central axis, the chassis having a left hand side wheel assembly support and a right hand side wheel assembly support, free ends of the wheel assembly supports having wheel assemblies, each wheel assembly comprising a wheel mounted on a wheel mount, the wheel mount being rotatable about an inclined axis, and the wheel being rotatable about a horizontal axis. The wheel assembly supporting structures and the wheel mounts allow limited relative movement of each wheel mount with respect to the wheel assembly supporting structures which enables greater control when the towed agricultural implement is towed about a corner.
