20100300340 | COULTER ASSEMBLY - A coulter assembly is provided that facilitates continuous adjustment of coulter disk penetration depth. In an exemplary embodiment, the coulter assembly includes a gauge wheel configured to rotate across a soil surface to limit a penetration depth of a coulter disk into the soil. A depth adjustment assembly is coupled to the gauge wheel and configured to adjust the penetration depth of the coulter disk by continuously varying the vertical position of the gauge wheel. This configuration may enable the coulter disk to operate at any penetration depth within the gauge wheel range of motion, thereby facilitating deposition of fertilizer within the soil at a suitable depth to enhance crop growth. | 12-02-2010 |

20090087280 | REUSEABLE LOCK NUT DEVICE - A reusable lock nut device is provided. The reusable lock nut device includes a nut with an axial bore and at least one setscrew bore extending radially through a sidewall and opening into the axial bore. The setscrew bore accepts a setscrew for interfacing with and selectively locking against a threaded fastener, used with the reusable lock nut device. The threads of the threaded fastener define a thread angle between respective pairs of converging lateral thread walls. An end portion of the setscrew is tapered, with a taper angle that corresponds to such thread angle. This configuration enables the end portion of the setscrew to nest wholly within a thread valley defined between walls segments of the respective pairs of converging lateral thread walls. | 04-02-2009 |
20100101810 | Pump Support Coupler System - A pump support coupler assembly for connecting a large displacement hydraulic pump to a tractor power take off device is provided. The pump support coupler assembly includes a coupler housing with front and back walls, and sidewalls. The high displacement hydraulic pump attaches directly or indirectly to the coupler housing back wall. A shaft extends longitudinally through the coupler housing. The shaft is coupled to an input shaft of the hydraulic pump at its first end and a power take off output shaft at its second end. A torque restraint strap extends between the coupler housing and a tractor drawbar, and prevents the coupler housing from rotating about its longitudinal axis. In this configuration, the power take off output shaft supports the pump support coupler assembly and the hydraulic pump, and since the pump is attached to the coupler housing, the pump input shaft is not subjected to bending-type loads. | 04-29-2010 |

20090020298 | Method And Apparatus For A Folding Marker For An Agricultural Implement - A folding marker for connection to an agricultural implement toolbar with a marker shoulder pivot, an inner arm and a double acting hydraulic cylinder both pivotally connected to the shoulder pivot. A middle arm bracket is pivotally connected to the inner arm and the cylinder. A middle arm is connected to the middle arm bracket, with two beams extending from the bracket and terminating at an outer arm pivot, with a third beam connected between the bracket and a crossbrace. An outer arm pivot bracket is pivotally connected to the outer arm pivot, an outer arm connected thereto and having two legs connected between the outer arm pivot bracket and a plate assembly. The legs define a channel therebetween, and an adjustable arm is slidably connected within the channel. An extension element is insertable within the channel and lockable with the plate assembly, with a marking element connected thereto. | 01-22-2009 |

20160003390 | QUICK COUPLING FOR FLEXIBLE TUBE - A quick coupling for the flexible tube supplying seeds from a storage bin to row crop units in a row crop seed planter. The quick coupling has an outer annular element with a bayonet connection and a central bore which receives an annular insert having two arcuate sections and holding the flexible tube in place through barbs. The inserts are removable from the outer annular coupling by means of a detent at which point the arcuate sections may be easily removed from the flexible tube. | 01-07-2016 |
