Design Rationale

  • Modular wheels
  • Raisable wheels
  • Hydralic cylinder with pressure relief (not hydraulic accumulator) is used for release
  • Valve operated return-to-soil via control valve in cab
  • 3' shank length total, 2' depth max
  • Shank release angle is 45%, using an 3"x8" hydraulic cylinder
  • 1" pivot through box beam tubing serves as shank pivot point
  • Shank is welded to 12" of box beam tubing
  • Height adjustment occurs via hydraulically lifted wheels, or via adjusting height via pin on the box beam tubing
  • Designed around Universal Drawbar
  • Designed for up to 4 shanks at 2' spacing
  • Extensible in width by adding more box beam tubing
  • Modular coulter wheels are attachable in front of shanks
  • Designed for carrying fluid (water, compost tea, etc) on top of frame.
  • Idler wheels can be doubled for a total of 6400 lb load capacity on wheels (1600 lb each wheel)
  • Wheels are car donuts with two 1-7/8" bearings
