Abstract

Soil working tool for an agricultural machine, in particular a cultivator, which is fixed on a tool holder and has a tine-like region to which a preferably guide plate-like element is attached. In order to achieve an improved soil flow across the soil working tool with good wear protection and thus a sufficient service life of the soil working tool, the tine-like region has two side strips which run in the longitudinal direction of the soil working tool and have notch-like recesses extending in the transverse direction, and that an at least approximately smooth center strip region is located between the two side strips in the center in the longitudinal direction of the tine-like region of the soil working tool.

Claims (37)

1. A soil-working tool for an agricultural machine, the soil working tool comprising:

a cultivator blade fastened on a tool holder, the cultivator blade defining a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, the cultivator blade comprising

an upper side and a lower side, the upper side comprising a first curve and the lower side comprising a second curve, the first curve and the second curve being curved in a similar direction;

a guide-plate-like element, and

a tine-like region adjoined by the guide-plate-like element;

wherein the tine-like region comprises two side strips and a central-strip region disposed between the two side strips,

each side strip extending in the longitudinal direction,

each side strip comprising a plurality of notch-like depressions extending in the transverse direction, and

the central-strip region being smooth,

wherein the tine-like region comprises a cross section that is curved convexly upward on the upper side of the tine-like region,

wherein the central-strip region is located in an upper convexly curved region of the tine-like region.

2. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 1 ,

wherein a notch-like depression of the plurality of notch-like depressions is located in a side region of the tine-like region, the side region sloping down laterally from the central region.

3. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 2 ,

wherein each side strip and the central strip comprises the substantially same width.

4. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least six notch-like depressions of plurality of notch-like depressions are arranged serially in each side strip.

5. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a through-passage disposed from the upper side to the lower side, the through-passage for receiving a fastener.

6. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least one notch-like depression of the plurality of notch-like depressions widens outward in a transverse direction.

7. A soil-working tool for an agricultural machine, the soil working tool comprising:

a cultivator blade fastened on a tool holder, the cultivator blade defining a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction, the cultivator blade comprising

an upper side and a lower side;

a through-passage disposed from the upper side to the lower side, the through-passage for receiving a fastener;

a guide-plate-like element; and

a tine-like region adjoined by the guide-plate-like element;

wherein the tine-like region comprises two side strips and a central-strip region disposed between the two side strips,

each side strip extending in the longitudinal direction,

each side strip comprising a plurality of notch-like depressions extending in the transverse direction, and

the central-strip region being smooth;

wherein at least one notch-like depression of the plurality of notch-like depressions widens outward in a transverse direction.

8. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 7 ,

wherein the tine-like region comprises a cross section that is curved convexly upward on an the upper side of the tine-like region,

wherein the central-strip region is located in an upper convexly curved region of the tine-like region, and

wherein a notch-like depression of the plurality of notch-like depressions is located in a side region of the tine-like region, the side region sloping down laterally from the central region.

9. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 8 , wherein at least one side strip of the two side strips comprises a notch-like depression, and

wherein each side strip and the central strip comprises the substantially same width.

10. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 7 , wherein at least six notch-like depressions of plurality of notch-like depressions are arranged serially in each side strip.

11. The soil-working tool as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the upper side comprising a first curve and the lower side comprising a second curve, the first curve and the second curve being curved in a similar direction.
