摘要： The disclosed flexible flail is molded from polyurethane. The flail has a relatively thin shank with a hub at one end so that the flail can be attached to the rotor of conventional defoliating apparatus and has a thicker portion at the end thereof opposite the hub. A plurality of metal studs have disk-like heads embedded in the thicker portion of the shank and the studs project from the side of the shank opposite the thicker portion in a direction so as to strike the leaves and remove same from sugar beets and the like while such beets are still in the ground.

摘要： A dual disc cultivator cutaway (10) is disclosed including a frame (30) pivotally mounted to a cultivator tool bar (14) through a bar mount (22). A spindle (38) is pivotally mounted to the opposite end of the frame (30) and slideably mounts first and second arms (40) which in turn rotatably mount the disc blades (44). An adjustment slide (46) is removably pivotally mounted to the upper arm (26) of the cultivator gang assembly and is adjustably, slideably fixed on a bar (45) extending from the spindle (38). Thus, movement of the frame (30) is in a fixed positional relationship with the gang assembly in the cutting and transport positions and pivots with the gang assembly relative to the tool bar (14). When the slide (46) is not attached to the upper arm (26), the frame (30) can be held in an inoperative position relative to the tool bar (14) by a latch (54) pivotally mounted to the tool bar ( 14) through the bar mount (22) which hooks on a pin (56) attached to the frame (30). In the inoperative position, the frame (30) is supported by the tool bar (14) independent of the gang assemblies.

摘要： During the first pass across a field of row-planted sugar or red beets, the apparatus digs the beets from a specific number of rows (six being illustrated but the apparatus herein disclosed can be structured for four or five rows as well), elevates the beets at one side of the apparatus to a given height and discharges the elevated beets into a tank from which they are periodically re-elevated and discharged into a truck at the side of the apparatus opposite the side at which they are elevated and re-elevated, the truck trailing the apparatus over rows from which beets have been removed when not receiving re-elevated beets. On the next pass in a reverse direction across the field, the truck runs in the swath where the beets have been removed during the first pass, and the beets during the second pass are continually discharged into the truck without resort to storage and without re-elevating the beets as done on the first pass. In this way, beets are run over by the truck only on the first pass, and even then to a minimum degree. Also the apparatus is better balanced by elevating beets at one side of the apparatus, and discharging them at the other side. A hydraulic system automatically controls certain motors in determining whether beets are to be discharged into a truck or stored. The apparatus additionally includes a special cleaning bed that assures a more complete cleaning of the beets.

摘要： The disclosed planting apparatus includes a frame fixedly attached to a transversely extending tool bar. Secured to the tool bar and extending rearwardly therefrom is a platform on which the seed hopper and herbicide container are mounted. Seed from the hopper is dispensed downwardly to a seed metering device which deposits seed at uniformly spaced intervals into a furrow formed by a pair of furrow-opening discs and a shoe associated therewith, the shoe packing or compacting the soil at the bottom of the furrow formed by the discs. Playing an important role in the invention is a walking beam system which mounts a pair of gauge wheels for independent movement relative to each other and also relative to the furrow-opening discs and shoe. Also supported by the walking beam system is a pair of furrow-closing or press wheels, the pitch of which can be adjusted for varying soil conditions. The depth of the furrow is initially selected by positioning a handle which raises and lowers an articulated link assembly that acts against the pair of pivotal arm units on which the gauge wheels are rotatably journaled and also acts against a rearwardly extending arm unit that supports the press wheels at the rear of the apparatus. In this way, unevenness and/or obstacles encountered by either of the gauge wheels will not adversely affect the planting depth that has been selected by positioning the handle relative to a depth-indicating gauge.

摘要： A preferred number of lifter wheel assemblies each have a pair of lifter wheels rotatably carried at one end of a strut which is pivotally mounted at its other end to a clamp unit having a horizontal flange which projects forwardly past the front transverse beam of the main frame of the sugar beet harvester. An elongated rigid member is welded to the underside of each strut and has a flange at its forward end which projects beneath the clamp unit flange. Heavy-duty coil springs normally maintain the flanges together to cause the lifter wheels to be biased into the ground. Each spring individually yields or compresses when the lifter wheels associated therewith ride upwardly over a submerged rock, thereby preventing breakage of any of the components constituting the lifter wheel assembly. Sufficient upward movement of the lifter wheels in any given instance would cause the lifter wheels to strike the overhanging steel shaft carrying the paddles that knock the sugar beets from the various pairs of lifter wheels. Breakage of the paddle shaft is prevented by journalling the ends of the paddle shaft on arms pivotally mounted to the side portions of the main frame. Additional heavy-duty springs, one for each arm, normally bias the ends of the arms downwardly, these being the ends of the arms near which the paddle shaft is journaled, so that the last-mentioned springs yield or compress to permit upward movement of any one of the struts and its lifter wheels when deflected upwardly by a rock.
