Patent ID: 8555994

Claim:
An agricultural device for coupling an agricultural implement to a tractor vehicle, wherein the tractor vehicle has carrier arms, wherein the only tensile force transmitting coupling between the tractor and the agricultural device is at the carrier arms , the agricultural device comprising: a carrier frame extending in the longitudinal direction over a centre line, the carrier frame having at a first end a set of wheels and a coupling device for coupling the agricultural implement, wherein the agricultural implement can be held by the coupling device in a working position and in a raised position; and a coupling frame connected to a second end of the carrier frame and hingeable about an upward axis of rotation, the coupling frame having at least one coupling point for coupling of the coupling frame to both carrier arms of the tractor vehicle; and wherein the coupling frame is connected to the carrier frame so as to be rigid in rotation in a vertical plane, wherein at least one coupling point of the coupling frame is positioned above a centre line of the carrier frame; and wherein the coupling point is vertically positioned in such a way that, after coupling of the agricultural device to the tractor vehicle, the carrier arms extend upwardly front the tractor vehicle.
