Advanced front plow

Abstract The process of smooth plowing with the turnover of layers within its own furrow is characterized by high energy costs due to the interaction of the plow body and the plow in conditions of blocked cutting. The purpose of the research is to substantiate the type of the second-rear body of the frontal plow. The proposed front plow for smooth plowing contains twin screw housings, first-row colliders, rear screw right- and left-turning plow housings, second-row colliders. Screw right- and left-turning plow housings are equipped with mirror-mounted screw shortened stabilizing plates. The transverse distance from the field cutoff to the front of the stabilizing plate is greater than the width of the body grip. As a result, the rear bodies work in a semi-open furrow, which helps to reduce the traction resistance of the plow. The results of experimental studies to substantiate the type of rear enclosures are presented. Experiments were carried out with the following types of rear housings: cultured, semi-screw, screw and screw housing with a guide plate. It is established that when performing the rear screw housings and equipping them with guide plates, the quality indicators of the plow fully comply with agro technical requirements. At the same time, the degree of embedding of plant residues and the height of irregularities is 92-95% and 4.3-5 cm, respectively.
