82 AGRICULTURAL IMPLEMENT MOUNTING US14576987 2014-12-19 US20150201546A1 2015-07-23 Thomas Müller; Benno PICHLMAIER; Jakob Kreitmayr
An agricultural vehicle has an implement connection hitch including means for controllably moving the same relative to a rear axle of the vehicle. A control system controlling movement of the connection hitch is coupled with position determining means such as a GPS receiver and determines a location for the vehicle. During turning manoeuvres, the control system moves the hitch relative to the rear axle of the vehicle until it reaches an offset position such as to reduce the turning circle of the vehicle and a connected implement. The extent of offset may be determined automatically by the control system on identification of a connected implement.

89 Agricultural implement US13099134 2011-05-02 US08201638B1 2012-06-19 Carl Badger; Kimberly A. Lang
An agricultural implement in the form of a dicing plow booster device is provided that is operative to connect to a further hitch device of a front end of a plow. The implement has a dicing drum in rotating connection with a dicing drum frame, and has a drive roller in rotating connection with the drive roller frame. The dicing drum comprises a plurality of blades. A first hydraulic motor causes the dicing drum to rotate in a first direction. A second hydraulic motor causes the drive roller to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction. When the agricultural implement is mounted to the plow, the dicing drum and drive roller are positioned rearwardly of the plow. The drive roller rotating in the second direction is operative to urge the agricultural implement to move in a direction towards the plow.

94 Rotary tiller attachments for facilitating turning US619865 1990-11-29 US5095996A 1992-03-17 Elbert P. Sprinkle
A conventional rotary tiller having an engine, an axle with two wheels, a set of tines, handlebars, and an attachment that facilitates turning. The attachment comprises a turntable which is mounted to the tiller opposite the tines in such a way that it remains out of contact with the ground during normal cultivation operations. Turning the tiller is accomplished by pivoting the tiller about the axle onto the turntable, and then rotating the tiller on the turntable to a new direction. The tiller is then pivoted back to resume normal operations in the new direction.
