WEIGHT TRANSFER SYSTEM FOR PITCH PLOWS

摘要

A weight transfer system for pitch plows that allows the pitch plows to draw underground at an accurate depth without inadvertent depth changes in the operation of the plow. The dynamic weight transfer system exerts upward or downward force on the plow to optimize plow operation. The reaction force of the dynamic weight transfer system is applied to the towing mechanism. The amount of force and direction can be adjusted to optimize the plowing operation as plowing conditions change.

主权项

1. A weight transfer system for pitch plows, said weight transfer system comprising:
i. a mounting system for said weight transfer system; ii. at least one lifting/lowering mechanism attached to said pitch plow; iii. a hydraulic valve packet that controls oil flow and pressure to each said lifting/lowering mechanism; iv. at least two hydraulic hoses connected by one end to a hydraulic oil system and connected at the opposite ends to each said lifting/lowering mechanism to deliver the oil to and from said lifting/lowering mechanism, and, v. a means of controlling hydraulic valves in said hydraulic valve packet.
