PLOUGH BODY Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: agricultural engineering. SUBSTANCE: plough body has standard 1, landside 2, mouldboard 4 with curved landward and furrow edge and share 3 with furrow edge. The latter is arranged in vertical plane to form angle with share blade that is equal to angle needed for blade to be placed at furrow side. Angle between straight line, connecting end points of mouldboard with furrow edge, amounts to 80-85 deg. in horizontal plane and to 145-150 deg. in vertical plane perpendicular to plane of share furrow edge position. Straight line, passing through end points of upper half of mouldboard furrow edge, is arranged at obtuse angle to share furrow edge. Mouldboard furrow edge does not project above share point, and entire edging, of share and mouldboard is sharpened to ensure cutting-off of furrow slice in left-hand turn-over action. EFFECT: improved quality of ploughing. 1 dwg
