Land Leveler Implement with Bottom-Finned Working Blade
A towable implement features a frame, a pull tongue extending longitudinally forward thereof for towed conveyance of the frame over underlying ground, and a working blade lying transversely of the longitudinal direction, said blade being operable to engaged the underlying ground to perform a working operation thereon. The blade is selectively tiltable about a roll axis to adjust an angular position of the blade relative to the underlying ground to enable performance of different working operations thereon. A series of rigid fins are distributed discretely along a width of the blade in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction, and each rigid fin protrudes downwardly beyond a reference plane occupied by the lower working edge of the blade. In the working state of the blade, at least one of said rigid fins engages said underlying ground in penetrating fashion to perform a rudder-like action helping maintain a straight travel direction of the implement.
