Abstract
In an agricultural implement having a center section and a hinged wing section foldable over the center section to narrow it for transport, there is provided an improved support structure pivotally connected to the wing section which lies flat on the wing during field operations and automatically swings into its proper support orientation as the wing is folded. The support structure includes a brace member pivotally coupled with the wing section and spring loaded to swing away from the wing as the wing is folded. A stop is provided to properly orient the brace member relative to the wing and a guide surface is provided on the brace member to assure that it securely engages the frame of the center section.
