Claims
- 1. A tillage tool comprising:
- a cultivator sweep including:
- a base plate having a top surface, a bottom surface and a pair of converging leading edges at opposite sides thereof converging to a point at the forward end thereof, said base plate further defining and lying in a principal major plane which extends normal to said leading edges; and
- a shank projecting from said base plate and defining apertures for attaching the sweep to a tilling implement frame;
- a plow point bar-overcap mounted on said base plate and including:
- an overcap on said top surface; and
- a leading edge lip projecting downwardly from said overcap and overhanging the base plate adjacent the leading edges thereof, said leading edge lip including an inner surface adjacent said base plate and extending at an angle of from about 100.degree. to about 110.degree. to said major plane of said base plate, said leading edge lip projecting to a location below the bottom surface of said base plate; and
- weld metal positioned between said leading edge lip and said base plate to join said plow point bar-overcap to said base plate.
- 2. A tillage tool comprising:
- a cultivator sweep including:
- a base plate having a top surface, a bottom surface and a pair of converging leading edges at opposite sides thereof, said base plate including a major, substantially horizontally extending principal plane, and having said converging leading edges each extending substantially normal to said major plane; and
- a shank projecting from said base plate and defining at least one aperture for attaching the sweep to a tilling implement frame;
- a plow point bar-overcap mounted on said base plate and including:
- an overcap on said top surface of said base plate; and
- a leading edge lip projecting downwardly from said overcap and overhanging the base plate adjacent the leading edges thereof, said leading edge lip projecting to a location below the bottom surface of said base plate and extending at an angle of from about 100.degree. to about 110.degree. to the major plane of said base plate; and
- weld metal positioned between said leading edge lip and said base plate to join said plow point bar-overcap to said base plate.
