Description

SPECIFICATION Apparatus for cutting and clearing turf The present invention relates to apparatus for cutting and clearing turf or the like from a bank or ditch to edge a road, path or other way, for example, a device for edging a road verge. Needless to say, the invention is not limited to such a device.
In general, where a road is bounded on either side by a bank, it is generally necessary from time to time to cut back the bank, as in general such banks tend to extend, with passage of time, onto the road, thereby, narrowing the road to traffic. This operation is usually carried out by cutting the portion of the bank to be removed with a spade, shovel or the like, and then shovelling away the cut portion. This, it will be appreciated, is a relatively labour intensive operation, and accordingly, costly and slow. It also is dangerous in that the men cutting and shovelling the verge turf are exposed to the dangers of road accidents.
There is therefore a need for apparatus for cutting and clearing turf or the like from a road verge.
The present invention is directed towards providing such apparatus.
According to the invention, there is provided apparatus for cutting and clearing turf or the like from a bank or ditch to edge a road, path, or other way, the apparatus comprising a framework, an upstanding blade member mounted on the framework to engage, cut and part the turf along a line inwardly of the roadway, and means to clear the parted turf from the roadway.
In one embodiment of the invention the blade member comprises a forwardly directed cutting edge, and preferably, the cutting edge is upstanding.
In another embodiment of the invention at least one flail is provided adjacent the blade member to macerate and remove the cut turf from the roadway. Advantageously, a plurality of flails are provided, each flail being mounted on a chain extending from a shaft rotatable in the framework, and preferably the shaft extends substantially perpendicularly from the upstanding blade member.
In a further embodiment of the invention the upstanding blade member extends rearwardly of the cutting edge and a pair of spaced apart flail shafts are provided, and preferably, one rearwardly of the other.
In a further embodiment of the invention a second upstanding member is provided spaced apart from the blade member, the flail shafts extending between the upstanding members.
Advantageously, a scraper member extends between the two upstanding members to scrape the macerated turf from the roadway.
Advantageously, the scraper member is provided rearwardly of the flail shafts.
In another embodiment of the invention a pair of spaced apart discs are mounted on the flail shaft adjacent the scraper to prevent large stones from being picked up by the scraper.
Advantageously, the flails are provided on the shaft between the discs.
In a further embodiment of the invention a cutting disc is mounted in front of the cutting edge of the blade member.
In another embodiment of the invention a shield is provided to cover the flail and direct the turf into a conveying means. Advantageously, the shield extends between the two upstanding members. Preferably, the conveying means is provided by a conveyor.
Advantageously, the conveying means delivers the cut turf onto a delivery means. Advantageously, the delivery means is provided by a delivery conveyor. Advantageously, the delivery conveyor is driven by a hydraulic motor, powered by a hydraulic pump, which may be driven by a power take off shaft by a tractor, or alternatively by the hydraulic system of a tractor.
Alternatively, the delivery means may be provided by a chute, and preferably, the chute is pivotable on the conveyor to direct the turf, into, for example, a ditch at the side of the road or into a trailer or the like being trailed behind the apparatus. Needless to say, the delivery conveyor may also be adjustable for delivering the turf into the ditch, or alternatively, a trailer.
In a further embodiment of the invention a brush means is provided rearwardly of the scraper. Advantageously, the brush is provided by a plurality of bristles extending from a shaft rotatable in the framework and preferably driven by the power take off of a tractor.
In a further embodiment of the invention the apparatus is adapted for mounting to the three point linkage of a tractor. Advantageously, the flail shafts are driven by the power take off of the tractor, and preferably, the conveyor is driven by the power take off of the tractor.
In a further embodiment of the invention a level adjusting wheel is mounted on the framework, the wheel being adjustable up and down to raise or lower the level of the apparatus.
In a still further embodiment of the invention a level adjusting wheel may be mounted on the conveyor, the wheel being similarly adjustable.
The invention will be more clearly understood by the following description of a preferred embodiment thereof given by way of example only with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: Figure 1 is a perspective view of apparatus according to the invention for cutting and clearing turf or the like from a bank along the side of a road, Figure 2 is a perspective view of the appar tus of Fig. 1 showing a portion of the apparatus removed, Figure 3 is a side perspective view of the apparatus of Fig. 1, Figure 4 is a rear perspective view of portion of the apparatus of Fig. 1, Figure- 5 is a perspective view of a detail of the apparatus of Fig. 1, Figure 6 is a perspective view of the detail of Fig. 5 with portion removed, Figure 7 is a perspective view of another detail of the apparatus of Fig. 1, Figure 8 is a perspective view of another portion of the apparatus of Fig. 1, and Figure 9 is a perspective view of a still further portion of the apparatus of Fig. 1.
Referring now to the drawings there is illustrated apparatus according to the invention indicated generally by the reference numeral 1 for cutting and clearing turf or the like from a bank or ditch to edge a roadway, path or other way. The apparatus 1 comprises a framework 2, which is adapted for mounting to the three point linkage 3 of a tractor 4.
The framework 2 comprises four upstanding plate members 5, 6, 7 and 8 all of metal plate material joined by a pair of transv.erse tubular members 9 and 10. The plate member 5 acts as a blade member and is formed in three sections of metal plate material welded together.s The forward section 11 comprises a forwardly directed cutting edge 12 for cutting the turf from the bank. The section 14 is directed rearwardly inwardly and is welded to the main rear section 15. The plate member 6 forms with the member 5 the essential cutting portion 13 of the apparatus 1. A rubber strip 16 extends along the bottom edge of the plate member 6 to engage the ground and retain any cut turf within the cutting portion 13 between the plates 5 and 6. The plate members 7 and 8 act as main structural supports for the apparatus 1.
Within the cutting portion 13 a pair of flail shafts 17 and 18 are rotatably mounted, and each shaft 17 and 18 comprises a plurality of flails 19 for macerating and removing the turf from the road or the cut margin of the bank.
Each flail 19 comprises a flail member 20 joined to a bracket 21 on the shafts 17 and 18 by chains 22. The shaft 17 is rotatably mounted in a plumber block bearing 25 mounted on a plate 26 on the plate member 5 and a second bearing (not shown) mounted on the plate 6. The shaft 18 is rotatably mounted in the plates 5 and 6 also in bearings (not shown). The shafts 17 and 18 are interconnected by a chain 28 around sprockets 29 and 30 on the shafts 17 and 18. The shaft 18 is driven by a gear box 33 mounted on the members 9 and 10 through a shaft 34 extending through the plate members 5, 6 and 7 and by a chain drive 36 around sprockets 37 and 38 fast on the drive shaft 34 and the flail shaft 18. A tubular shield 39 extends over the drive shaft 34 between the gear box 33 and the plate member 5 to protect the shafts from a muck build up.A stub shaft 40 from the gear box 33 is connected to the power take off shaft (not shown) of the tractor 4 through a drive shaft 42 and a universal joint 44. Brackets 97 and 98 support the gear box 33 on the cross member 10.
A shield 39 of metal plate is provided between the plate members 5 and 6 over the cutting portion 13 to prevent the flails scattering turf. The shield 39 terminates in a lid 41 for access to the flail shaft 18.
A scraper membver 45 extends between the plate members 5 and 6 to the rear thereof. The leading edge 46 scrapes cut turf from the road which is delivered onto a conveying means which in this case is provided by a conveyor 47.
A pair of discs 120 are also mounted on the flail shaft 18. These discs are provided to prevent the passage of any large rocks or stones or any other such objects between the flail shaft 18 and the scraper member 45.
The conveyor 47 comprises a pair of side members 50 of angle iron welded to the plate members 5 and 6, and further reinforced by brackets 51 and 52. A pair of rollers, namely, a driven roller 55 and an idler roller 56 are rotatable in bearings (not shown) in the side members 50 and support a conveyor belt 53.
The drive roller 55 is driven by a chain drive 54 around sprockets 57 and 58 fast on the roller shaft 55 and an intermediate shaft 61.
A chain drive 62 drives the intermediate shaft from the flail shaft 18. The shaft 61 is rotatable in the plates 6 and 7 in bearings (not shown). A delivery means in this case a delivery conveyor 60 is mounted by brackets 63 and 64 to the conveyor 47. The conveyor 60 comprises a pair of side members 65 in which rollers 66 and 67 are rotatably mounted. A conveyor belt 69 around the rollers 66 and 67 delivers the cut turf from the conveyor 47 into the ditch from which the turf is cut or alternatively into a trailer behind the apparatus 1.
The roller 66 is driven by a hydraulic motor 71. This motor 71 is powered by hydraulic oil from a hydraulic pump 72 delivered through flexible hoses 73. The pump 72 is mounted on a bracket 74 extending from the cross member 10 (see Fig. 4) and is driven by a belt and pulley drive 75 from a shaft 76 which is connected through a universal joint 77 to the rear flail shaft 18. The free end of the shaft 76 is rotatably supported in a bearing (not shown) mounted on the bracket 74.
A shield 78 mounted on one of the side members 65 of the conveyor 60 directs turf from the conveyor 47 onto the conveyor belt 69. A brush means to brush any loose bits of cut turf from the road into the side is provided by an angled rotatable brush 80 mounted rearwardly of the cutting portion 13 of the apparatus 1. The brush 80 is mounted on and driven by a shaft 81 which is in turn rotatable in a housing 82. The housing 82 is supported on the side members 50 of the conveyor 47 by brackets 85. A double belt and pulley drive 86 drives the brush shaft 81 from the drive shaft 76.
A cutting disc 89 is provided in front of the cutting edge 12 of the member 5 to cut the turf from the bank. The disc 89 is rotatable on a shaft 90 which is supported on a cranked member 91. A bracket 92 extending from the plate member 5 supports the member 91. As can be seen the bracket 92 is of channel section material. Between the plate member 5 and the bracket 92 a strut 93 is provided to support the bracket 92. Although not illustrated the cranked member 91 is connected to the bracket 92 by means of a spring loaded joint which permits the cranked member 91 to pivot upwardly in the event of the disk member 89 striking an obstruction, such as for example a rock or the like. Additional reinforcing members of metal plate 95 and 96 are provided to strengthen the plate member 5.
A level adjusting wheel 100 for adjusting the level of the apparatus 1 and in turn, the level at which the cutting portion 13 of the apparatus 1 cuts is rotatably mounted on a shaft 101. The shaft 101 is supported on side members 102 which in turn engage a cross member 103 which is pivotal in a bracket member 104. The bracket member extends downwardly from a support member 105 extending from the plate member 8. An arm 107 extending from the cross member 103 is operable for raising and lowering the wheel 100 by a screw jack 108, which engages a nut 109 of the jack. The nut 109 is supported on an upstanding member 110 from the support 105. A tool box 112 is mounted on the plate member 8 for carrying tools and like.A bracket member 114 which is illustrated in Figs. 3 and 4 extends from the cross member 10 to support the delivery conveyor 60 when the apparatus is being driven to the site.
A pair of brackets 117 on the cross member 9 engage the lower links of the three point linkage 3 of the tractor 4 while a bracket 118 on the housing of the gear box 33 engages the third link of the three point linkage 3 of the tractor 4.
In use the apparatus 1 is mounted behind the tractor 4 with the three point linkage 2 connected to the brackets 117 and 118. The power take off shaft of the tractor is connected to the drive shaft 42. The delivery conveyor 60 is mounted by the brackets 63 and 64 to the conveyor 47 and the level adjusting wheel 100 is adjusted by the screw jack 108 so that the apparatus is at the desired level. The tractor is then driven forward and the cutting disk 89 parts the turf to be removed from the bank. The parting is further made by a cutting edge 12 of the plate member 5 the flails 20 on the flail shafts 18 and 19 macerate and remove the parted portion of the turf from the roadway. The scraper member 45 scrapes the turf from the road and delivers it on to the conveyor 47 where it is delivered in turn on to the delivery conveyor 60 and dumped in to the ditch on the side of the road.Any remaining particles of turf which escape the scraper are subsequently brushed in to the edge of the road by the brush 80.
Where it is desired to alter the level of the apparatus during the operation this is carried out by raising or lowering the level adjusting wheel 100.
It will be appreciated that while two flail shafts with flails have been described, one of the shafts could be dispensed with if desired.
Indeed, in certain embodiments of the invention it is envisaged that both may be dispensed with. Further of course it will be appreciated that if desired the discs on the flail shaft 18 may be dispensed with.
In other cases, it is envisaged that the scraper member could be dispensed with in which case, the loosened and macerated turf would be brushed into the edge of the road by the brush. Needless to say, in certain cases the brush member could also be dispensed with.
It will also of course be appreciated that conveying means other than conveyor belts could be used for delivering the cut turf from the road.
It will also of course be appreciated that other suitable driving arrangments for driving the farios shafts could be used besides those described.
Further, it will be appreciated that level adjusting means besides the wheel 100 could be provided indeed, in certain cases it is envisaged that the level adjusting wheel may be dispensed with altogether. In other cases, it is envisaged that a level adjusting wheel may be provided for the output conveyor or conveyors as the case may be. Further, in other cases it is envisaged that the front loading cutting disk may be dispensed with. It will of course be appreciated that in its simplest all that is required is a single upstanding member with a forwardly directed cutting edge for the invention to operate. In which case, the remaining plate members could be dispensed with.
Additionally, while the apparatus has been described for cutting turf on the edge of the road, it could be used for many other purposes, for example, edging a drive, or edging any other bank or the like. In certain cases, it could also be used for actually cutting a channel through a bank, a field, a bog or the like.
Further, it is envisaged that a hitch may be fitted on the back of the apparatus for trailing a trailer behind the apparatus.
Needless to say, the apparatus could be constructed in many other shapes or constructions besides that illustrated, for example, the cross members could be of any shape or construction or indeed they could be provided by a framework or the like. Needless to say, the plate member 6, 7 and 8 could also be provided by frameworks, and indeed in certain cases the plate member 5 could also be provided by a framework.
Needless to say, the apparatus could be mounted behind any other apparatus besides a tractor. In fact, in certain cases it is envisaged that the apparatus could be provided as a single unit with its own inboard drive means, for example, its own engine for example, an IC engine such as, for example a diesel engine.
Further, the upstanding blade member may be of any other shape or construction.
Additionally, it will be appreciated that while a particular type of flails have been described, any other suitable types of flails for use could be provided. Indeed in certain cases the flails could be dispensed with.
