My invention is directed to precision adjustment means for controlling the depth of cut of rear sets of gangs of discs with respect to the front sets of gangs of discs in a multiple lift type disc harrow. I provide a lineally extending strut of tubular form which is substantially polygo-nal in section and which supports rightand left-hand screw-threaded means in opposite ends thereof for receiving correspondingly screw-threaded fittings, one of which attaches to a suspension frame which couples to a tractor and the other of which connects to a central position adjacent the trailing edge of the front frame. The shape of the strut is such that it may be readily engaged manually or engaged by a wrench at any position along the length thereof and revolved to control the angular relation of the frame of the harrow to the suspension frame for correspondingly regulating the depth of cut. I provide an arrangement of jam nuts for maintaining the fittings in a selected adjusted position with respect to the strut. I so construct the rightand left-hand screwthreaded members and mount them in the opposite ends of the tubular strut in such manner that the r'ightand left-hand screw-threaded members, if stripped or otherwise injured, may be readily replaced without replacing all of the component parts of the strut.
Referring to the drawings in more detail, reference character 1 designates the front frame of a multiple folding lift type disc harrow which pivotally connects at its front end with the vertically extending suspension frame 2 pivoted at 3 to the frame 1. The suspension frame 2 connects the links 4 and 5 with a tractor. The front frame 1 carries the revolvable gangs of discs represented at 6 The trailing edge of the front frame 1 is provided with connecting means represented at 7 'in which the screw-threaded fitting represented at '8is mounted for anguiar-meve'ment." "The ttailin'g edgeof thefront rame 1 is also provided with hinge members represented at 9 which coact with hinge members represented at 10 arranged on the leading edge of the rear harrow frame 11. There are depending members 12 carried by the trailing edge of front frame 1 in alignment with depending members 14 carried by the leading edge of rear frame 11 which may be interconnected by bolt members 15 for maintaining the rear frame member 11 in coplanar alignment with the front frame 1. The rear frame 11 carries gangs of harrow discs 16. Rear frame member 11 may be divided into sections and the sections individually moved to a position Over front frame 1 guided by the hinge members 10 upon removal of fastening bolts 15.,
The adjustable strut of my invention is shown more particularly in Figs. -13 and includes the screw-threaded fitting 8 adjustable through one end of the strut and the screw-threaded fitting 18 adjustable through the other end of the strut. The screw-threaded fittings 8 and 18 are both provided with T-shaped termini shown at 8a and 18a for respectively engaging the connecting means 7 on the trailing edge of front frame 1 and the transverse connecting means 19 on the suspension frame 2. The screw-threaded fitting 18 is angularly shiftable with respect to transverse connecting means 19. Screw-threaded fitting 8 carries left-hand threads represented at 8b while screw-threaded fitting 18 carries right-hand threads represented at 18b. These leftand right-hand threads engage correspondingly screw-threaded inserts represented at 20 and 21 of polygonal contour and which fit within the tubular strut 22 of corresponding contour. The screwthreaded fittings 8 and 18 each carry jam nuts 23 and 24 thereon which bear against the ends of the screwthreaded inserts 20 and 21 which terminate coplanar with the opposite ends of the tubular strut 22.
The tubular strut 22 is polygonal in section so that it may be manually grasped or engaged by a tool at any position intermediate its opposite ends and revolved for adjusting the distance between the fittings 8 and 18 and correspondingly adjusting the distance between suspension frame 2 and the trailing edge of horizontal frame 1. To facilitate the revolving strut 22, I provide a transversely extending bar 25 projecting through the strut 22 at a position intermediate the opposite ends thereof and which may be manually grasped for rotating the tubular member 22 for projecting or contracting the fittings 8 and 18. As the fittings 8 and 18 are projected, the rear gangs of discs shown at 16 are moved downwardly as represented in Fig. 4 from the normal position represented in Fig. 1 for thereby controlling the relative depth of cut of the rear gangs of discs 16 in the earth 26 as compared to the relative positions of the gangs of discs 6 and 16 represented in Fig. 1.
The screw-threaded inserts 20 and 21 may be rectangular or square in contour and the tubular strut 22 may be correspondingly shaped. Normally the screw-threaded inserts 20 and 21 may be welded in position in the ends of the tube 22. I prefer, however, to arrange the screwthreaded inserts 20 and 21 so that they may be readily removed from opposite ends of the tubular strut and renewed in the event of the stripping of the screw threads for thus enabling the screw-threaded inserts to be replaced Without the necessity of replacing the other components of the strut. This may be accomplished by the arrangement represented in Figs. -13 wherein the in sert 21 is shown provided with diametrically opposed indentations represented at 21a into which indentations 22a may be struck from the walls of tubular member 22 for maintaining the inserts in position. In this form of my invention, the tubular member 22 is provided with diametrically opposite instruck projections 22b at a distance from opposite ends thereof equal to the length of the inserts 20 and 21 and serving as abutments for seating the inserts 2t) and 21 in positions in the ends of the tubular member 22 so that the ends of the inserts terminate coplanar with the ends of the tubular member.
When it is necessary to remove an insert having stripped threads, the arrangement shown in Fig. 13 is employed wherein a tool having a pair of arms 27 engaged against the ends of the tubular strut 22 is provided with a pair of insertable arms 28 which may be passed through the screw-threaded insert and engaged with the inner end wall thereof and then advanced outwardly under the action of screw-threaded member 29 engaged in a screwthreaded cross-head 30 connected with the arms 27. The instruck projections 22a in tubular member 22 are sprung outwardly and the defective screw-threaded insert removed. The replacement insert is forced into the open end of the tubular member 22 and clamped in position by applying pressure to the indentations 22a in the walls of the tubular member 22, whereupon the replaced insert is ready for operation without renewal of any other of the component parts of the strut.
I have secured excellent results by the use of a tubular strut formed from 2%" square tubing approximately two feet long and using screw-threaded fittings of 1%" stock having rightand left-hand threads of seven threads to the inch and coacting with 1 /3" jam nuts and operating into correspondingly screw-threaded inserts.
