Vibrating Dual Bent-Share Cultivator

William jones

In this research, the suitability of a vibrating dual bent share cultivator was studied. Therefore, an eccentric pin slider mechanism was designed to vibrate the 2 shanks laterally, employing a tractor power takeoff. this study investigates the sector performance of the vibrating dual bent share cultivator with three different vibration frequencies (0, 0.88, and a couple of Hz) during a clay loam soil at two working depths (100 and 200 mm) and having a water content of a 0.7 or 0.9 plastic limit. rock bottom values of the draught, specific draught, and MWD were recorded at a vibration frequency of two Hz and a working depth of 100 mm. The draught force, specific draught, and MWD of the non-vibration implement were reduced by employing a vibration frequency of two Hz. The coefficient of determination and F values proved that the vibration frequency was simpler than the soil water content and therefore the working depth on the draught, specific draught, and MWD. Although a dual bent share cultivator needs low energy compared with a mould board plough, the vibration of the twin bent share cultivator could also be recommended as an efficient energy demanding implement within the soil manipulation process.
