Towed Agricultural Tool

摘要

A towed agricultural tool is provided, wherein the tool comprises a trailer that can be attached to a tractor or similar vehicle, which has a structure capable of supporting a number of agricultural tools, such as a rotovator or similar tool, such that with the limited power of the tractor vehicle it is possible to work with several tools simultaneously since the trailer includes motors to power the operation of the tools. Independent agricultural tools are fitted on a secondary structure capable of folding in on itself to reduce its size to comply with traffic regulations for trailers during transport and where each agricultural tool is powered by a motor such that they can be operated independently of the rest. Hydraulic arms can raise articulated sections of the secondary structure.
