Abstract
A deep soil loosening implement comprises at least two soil engaging/lifting tools 2 mounted on a horizontal member 3, the tools are spaced in parallel and laterally in line on the member. The implement is attached by means of a vertical member 1 to a frame 5. The soil lifting tools may be mounted on separate adjacent horizontal support members. The spacing of the spacing of the tools on the horizontal support member maybe variable, the impact angle of the soil lifting tools may also be variable.
Description
I
DEEP SOIL LOOSENING ThIPLEMENT This invention relates to an improved non inversiozi soil k'oseniug implement.
Drought, soil compaction surface panning, moisture loss, weed control problems have created a need on a global basIs for agricultunti implements which will effect deep loosening of soil with minimal disturbance to soil surface.
Various known implements exist for the purpose of soil loosening. Such implements usually involve individual fixed tines with a soil lifting tool at the lotr end. Additional means of lift may be in the tbnn of flat wIngs attached and extending laterally at or near the base of tines. lndhidu& fixed tines must be spaced in staggered ro m other to allow trash flow. Further methods of soil lifting are ibnnd in the application of curved blades which penetrate and lift the soil.
An object of the invention is to provide an improved soil loosening implement.
PrevIew of fstnetiot Central to the invention is the phenomenon of lateral soil fracturing between the soil engaging tips of a pair of' soil lifting tools. A detached ovexlying band of soil is cwied intact over a horizontal support member by a pair of soil lifting tools as the implement is dravn through the soil The loosened soil is deposited behind the horizontal member.
DESCRIPTION
Accordingly, the inventIon provides a deep soil loosenIng implement comprising a frame 1mm which depends a vertIcal support member or members. To The lower end of a vertical support member, a horizontal member extends laterally and equally to both sides of the vertical member, at right angles to the direction of travel. Two soil lifting tools forming an interactive pair are mounted on the horizontal member. The pair of tools are suitably spaced apart at a distance which is substantially less than the proposed depth of work in the soil The pair of tools are mounted essentially adjacent, in parallel, in line, on a common plane and fanning a notional straight line at the forward soil engaging tips of the tools. A -tools when mounted thus shall be referred to as a Soil 1oosening Unit A third tool when mounted adjacent to the said first Soil Loosening Unit, according to the above stated essential criteria, will ibim a second Unit; the central tool being common to the two Units. The same principle applies if a plurality of tools are mounted suitably spaced, in paralleL in line on a common plane and farming a notional straight line at the lbrward soil engaging tips of the soil lifting tools.
One vertical member supporting a horizontal member on which is mounted a plurality of units shall be referred to as a Midti-nnit A plurality of writs or multi units carried on a common in line frame shall be referred to as a Soil Leesenlag Assembly.
Conveniently, each soil biking tool has a soil engaging surface extending upward and rearward with respect to direction of tmvet when in use.
Conveniently. the soil engaging tIp of each soil lifting tool has a stnttght edge fir the fisH width of the tool, formed at riht ang]es to direction of travel when in use.
Mvantageoasly, the soil engaging tip of each soil lifting tool may he wider than the upward soil lifling section.
Advantageously, the replaceable soil engaging tip and the replaceabk soil lifting section of the soil engaging tool may be two separate components.
Conveniently, the spacing of sod lifting tools on a horizontal member may be a4justable.
Conveniently, single or multiple soil loosening units may be mounted at or near the base of a subsoiler tine to form a wing or wings Advantageously, single or multiple soil loosening units nay be integrated in to any appmpriate implement for the purpose of non inversion soil loosening Conveniently, a vertical support member on winch is cauie4 a single soil loosening unit is mounted centndly and extending rearward of the unit to allow unimpeded flow of the bridged soil lqer as the implement moves forward.
The present inventioe is further described hereinafter by way of nasnple, with reference to the secentpanytng drawings in which: Figure 1 is a perspective view of one embodiment ala non inversion Soil loosening unit. The unit is mounted at the base of vertical member 1. The unit is formed by a pair of soil lifting tools I which are mounted on a horizontal member 3 A flat replaceable share 4 is fitted to this embodiment.

- <claim-text>CLAIMSAgricultural deep soil loosening inipleinent I. A soil loosening unit, attached by means ala vertical member to a frame, consisting of two adjacent soil lifting tools mounted on a horizontal support member in parallel, in line laterally, on a common plane and in appropriate mutual proximity S order to actuate lateral fracturing of sail lying between the soil engaging tips of said sail lifting tools as they are dmt through the soil.</claim-text> <claim-text>2. A soil loosening unit according to claim I in which one soil liftIng tool is central and common to two or more units fanning a multi-unit 3. A soil loosening unit according to claim 1, in which said two soil filling tools are mounted on separate adjacent horizonS support members, 4.. A plurality of soil lifting units, according to claim 1. mounted on common or separate horizontal mounts to form a series of multi-units hieh in turn form a Soil loosening assembly 5. A soil loosening unit according to claim 1, in which the spacing of said soil lifting tools on said horizontal support member is variable.6. A soil loosening unit according to claim 1, in which the angle of impact of soil lifting tools is variable.7. A soil loosening unit according to claim I, fanning a component part of an assembly of soil loosening units mounted in parallel, laterally in tine on a common plane and attached to a carrying frame by means of vertical support members.8. A soil loosening unit or units suitably mounted to fonn soil lifting wings at cnn proximity of the lower end of a subsoiler tine.9. A sod loosening unit or unIts according to claim I which may be integrated in to any implement for the purpose of loosening the salt 10.
