Benefits of technology

[0007]In a second embodiment, a seed tank assembly for an agricultural implement includes a seed tank body configured to store seeds for the agricultural implement, in which the seed tank body includes an opening configured to facilitate filling the seed tank body with seeds. The seed tank assembly further includes a tank lid configured to rotate between a closed position that substantially covers the opening, and a fully open position that facilitates access to the seed tank body through the opening, in which the tank lid forms an obtuse angle with the opening while the tank lid is in the full

Embodiment Construction

[0014]One or more specific embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below. In an effort to provide a concise description of these embodiments, all features of an actual implementation may not be described in the specification. It should be appreciated that in the development of any such actual implementation, as in any engineering or design project, numerous implementation-specific decisions must be made to achieve the developers' specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and business-related constraints, which may vary from one implementation to another. Moreover, it should be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking of design, fabrication, and manufacture for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure.

[0015]When introducing elements of various embodiments of the present disclosure, the articles “a,”“an,”“the,” and “said” are intended to mean that there

Abstract

A seed tank assembly for an agricultural implement including a support rod with a first end and a second end, in which the first end is configured to couple to a first side of an opening in a seed tank, the second end is configured to couple to a second side of the opening in the seed tank, and the support rod includes a trough. The support rod is configured to provide structural support to the seed tank. The seed tank assembly further including a prop rod with a first end and a second end, in which the first end is slidably coupled to the support rod, the second end is configured to attach to a tank lid, the tank lid is configured to rotate from a closed position to a fully open position, and the tank lid forms an obtuse angle with the opening while in the fully open position. The trough is configured to block movement of the first end of the prop rod while the first end of the prop rod is engaged with the trough to hold the tank lid in the fully open position.
