Analysis of coulters of grain seeders

The article presents an analysis of the working bodies of grain seeders: double-disk, single-disk, anchor. The advantages and disadvantages of the presented working bodies are described. A model of a double-disk coulter with axes displacement in the direction of travel and a decrease in the angle of disc set-up from (10° to 7°) is proposed. The results of laboratory tests are presented, which indicate the advantage of the proposed opener model over the prototype.
