A device for automatically adjusting the working width of the first plough body (111) of a plough (1) in accordance with the variable working width of subsequent plough bodies (112, 113), in which a first hydraulic cylinder (13) is arranged to displace a rear frame section (117) laterally relative to a front frame section (116), and a second hydraulic cylinder (14) is arranged to pivot the rear frame section (117) around a first vertical pivoting axis (119) in order thereby to adjust a transverse spacing of the plough bodies (111, 112, 113) by the plough bodies (111, 112, 113) pivoting around second vertical pivoting axes (115), wherein the first hydraulic cylinder (13) is a multi-stage cylinder in which a first cylinder stage (131) forms a main lateral control, and a second cylinder stage (132) forms an automatic working-width control for the first plough body (111), the second cylinder stage (132) being in hydraulic-fluid communication with the second hydraulic cylinder (14) in a master-slave configuration, the second cylinder stage (132) being the master or the slave depending on the moving direction of the cylinder stage (132) and the second hydraulic cylinder (14) correspondingly being the slave or the master, and the piston diameters (D1a, D2) of the second cylinder stage (132) and the second hydraulic cylinder (14) being matched to each other so that an adjustment of the working width of the plough bodies (111, 112, 113) by the second hydraulic cylinder (14) provides a correction of the lateral displacement of the front frame section (116). |
