Abstract
A row unit for a seed-planting implement includes a frame, a gauge wheel arm pivotably coupled to the frame, and a gauge wheel rotatably coupled to the gauge wheel arm. Additionally, the row unit includes a wobble bracket configured to engage the gauge wheel arm and a linkage arm coupled to the wobble bracket. Moreover, the row unit includes an actuator, a gearbox coupled to the actuator, and a threaded shaft coupled to the gearbox. In addition, the row unit includes an actuation arm having a first end and a second end opposed to the first end, with the first end forming a hook that directly couples to the linkage arm and the second end coupled to the threaded shaft such that the actuation arm transmits rotation of the threaded shaft into linear motion of the linkage arm.
