Towing attachment for agricultural tractor - enables longitudinal axis of towed implements camber to be aligned with tractor wheels

摘要

The agricultural implement sowing tractor (1) has each of its four wheels (2,3,5,6) aligned at an angle (beta) to the longitudinal axis of the tractor. This facility enables each wheel to follow a different track so that the soil is not subjected to a double compression. In order to align the towed implement (10) with the tractor, it is connected to the tractor by two hydraulic cylinders (11,12), which can align the towed implement so that its longitudinal axis is inclined at the same angle to the tractor longitudinal axis (9) as are the tractor wheels. ADVANTAGE - Maintained alignment, even during non-linear drive, and reduced towing effort.
