Row-crop Tractor
A tractor is an engineering vehicle specifically designed to deliver a high tractive effort (or torque) at slow speeds, for the purposes of hauling a trailer or machinery such as that used in agriculture, mining or construction. Most commonly, the term is used to describe a farm vehicle that provides the power and traction to mechanize agricultural tasks, especially (and originally) tillage, and now many more. Agricultural implements may be towed behind or mounted on the tractor, and the tractor may also provide a source of power if the implement is mechanised. Etymology The word ''tractor'' was taken from Latin, being the agent noun of ''trahere'' "to pull". The first recorded use of the word meaning "an engine or vehicle for pulling wagons or plows" occurred in 1896, from the earlier term " traction motor" (1859). National variations In the UK, Ireland, Australia, India, Spain, Argentina, Slovenia, Serbia, Croatia, the Netherlands, and Germany, the word "tractor" u ...

Cockshutt Plow Company
Cockshutt was a large agricultural machinery manufacturer, known as Cockshutt Farm Equipment Limited (1957–1962), based in Brantford, Ontario, Canada. Founded as the Brantford Plow Works by James G. Cockshutt in 1877, the name was changed to the Cockshutt Plow Company when it was incorporated in 1882. After James died shortly thereafter, his brother William Foster Cockshutt took over as president. He remained until 1888, when another brother, Frank Cockshutt, became president of the company. In 1910, Henry Cockshutt, the youngest of the brothers, took over the leadership of the company. Under his direction, the company was able to obtain financing for acquisitions and expansion. History Known for quality designs, the company became the leader in the tillage tools sector by the 1920s. Since Cockshutt did not have a tractor design of its own yet, in 1929 an arrangement was made to distribute Allis-Chalmers model 20-35 and United tractors (United was a group of Fordson dealer ...

Cockshutt 30
The Cockshutt 30 row-crop tractor was the first production tractor to be manufactured in Canada. The Cockshutt Plow Company had previously imported rebranded Oliver and Allis-Chalmers tractors from the United States. The Model 30 marked Cockshutt's emergence as a full-line agricultural manufacturer. The tractors were built in Cockshutt's Brantford, Ontario plant. The Model 30 was noted for its introduction of a live power take-off (PTO), the first such accessory that could be operated whether the tractor was moving or stationary. Through the model's production span it was itself resold in the United States as the CO-OP E3 and the Gambles Farmcrest 30. Description and production Starting in 1939, Cockshutt studied designs for a Cockshutt-built tractor, with effort accelerating as World War II and war-related production drew to a close. In particular, a need was identified for a "live" power take-off (PTO) drive; i.e. a PTO that provided full power whether the tractor was moving or ...

Cockshutt 40
The Cockshutt 40 row-crop tractor was the second tractor produced by the Cockshutt Plow Company, from 1949 to 1958. Having developed the medium-sized Cockshutt 30, Cockshutt developed the heavier 40, using a six-cylinder engine. The 40 was rated for four plows. It was sold in the United States as the CO-OP E4. Description and production The Cockshutt 40 was scaled up from the 30, with many of the same features, including a live power takeoff (PTO), which at that time was a novelty. This optional feature allowed the tractor to operate machinery at a constant speed whether the tractor was in motion or stationary. The tractor was styled in the same streamlined manner as the 30 by Canadian architect Charles Brooks. A six-cylinder engine was provided by the American Buda Engine Company for the 40, supplemented by a diesel version in 1950. Kerosene and LP gas options were added to the product line in 1953. Following the acquisition of Buda by competitor Allis Chalmers in 1953, Cockshu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Buda Engine Company
Buda Engine was founded in 1881 by George Chalender in Buda, Illinois, to make equipment for railways. Later based in Harvey, Illinois, Buda from 1910 manufactured engines for industrial, truck, and marine applications. Early Buda engines were gasoline fueled. Later, diesel engines were introduced, utilizing proprietary Lanova cylinder head designs, injection pumps and nozzles. These were known as Buda-Lanova diesel engines. Buda Engine Company was acquired by Allis-Chalmers in 1953. The Buda-Lanova models were re-christened "Allis-Chalmers diesel". Buda began by manufacturing railroad maintenance of way tools and equipment, switches, switch stands and signal devices. By the end of the century, Buda was producing a line of hand cars and velocipedes, and eventually moved into the motorcar business also. Velocipedes were equipped with single-cylinder, air-cooled engines and motorcars were equipped with 2-cylinder opposed "pancake" air-cooled engines. The motorcar production was l ...

Oliver 99
The Oliver 90 series of row-crop tractors was a series of agricultural tractors produced from 1937 to 1961 by the Oliver Farm Equipment Company. Beginning with the Hart-Parr 28–44, the series was the most powerful Oliver tractor offering, capable of heavy plowing. Initial development proceeded on parallel lines, with the 28–44 offered with low and high-compression engine options that became the Oliver 90 and 99, respectively. The lines merged with the Super 99, then diverged again with the 950, 990 and 995 models. The series was produced until 1961. Hart-Parr Model A 28–44 The first heavy Hart-Parr tractor was the 28–44, or Hart-Parr Model A. Following rating by the Nebraska Tractor Test Laboratory, it was marketed with its power rating. It could operate a four or five-bottom plow. Built in Charles City, Iowa, the 28–44 was itself a scaled-up Hart-Parr 18-36, with a engine with gross, and a weight of . At a selling price of $about $1,325, almost 9,000 2844s were sold. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
John Deere Model R
The John Deere Model R tractor was John Deere's first diesel tractor. A large, heavy tractor, it had fixed wheel widths and was not produced as a row-crop tractor with adjustable axles. The R was followed in the John Deere numbered model series by the John Deere 80, 820 and 830 tractors, which represented evolutionary upgrades to the basic R. Description and production The R was the successor to the Model D standard-tread tractor. The R had a two-cylinder side-by-side diesel engine of displacement. The R required a starter motor, which was also a two-cylinder engine, horizontally-opposed, burning gasoline to warm up the prime engine. The pony engine had electric start. In addition to being the first Deere diesel tractor, the R was the first to have a "live" power take-off, with its own clutch allowing independent control of the PTO. A cab option was available for the R. The Model R was produced at the John Deere factory in Waterloo, Iowa. 21,293 were built, at a selling price ...
