peer agreement (net): +1large offset (disc) harrow Explanation: Excéntrica is offset, meaning that the harrow is set at an angle to the line of motion. "Excéntrica" is short for "rastra excéntrica", "rastra" being a harrow. It's a disc harrow rather than a tine harrow, as "máquina de discos", but for that reason you could probably omit "disc". https://www.google.es/search?num=100&q="offset harrow"&oq="o... (Rather few results for the alternatives suggested.) And compare the pictures: https://www.google.es/search?q="offset harrow"&num=100&sourc... http://vehiculos.mercadolibre.com.uy/rastras-excentricas-par... http://maquinariapotente.blogspot.com.es/2012/01/tipos-de-ra... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 31 mins (2014-10-27 14:54:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- And see no. 3 in the last ref. quoted: "3. Rastra de discos excéntrica u offset. Esta rastra esta formada por dos cuerpos, uno detrás del otro, dispuestos de manera que uno invierte el suelo hacia la derecha y el otro hacia la izquierda. Debido a la acción de la fuerza del suelo sobre los cuerpos, el punto de enganche y la línea de tiro se ubica hacia un costado del centro. De este hecho deriva su nombre de rastra excéntrica. La excentricidad se puede cambiar desde el lado derecho hacia el izquierdo del tractor modificando el enganche. Esto facilita el trabajo en huertos frutales para labrar debajo de las ramas donde éstas están muy bajas impidiendo que el tractor se acerque a las hileras de árboles." http://maquinariapotente.blogspot.com.es/2012/01/tipos-de-ra... Here's a good English example: http://www.athensplowcompany.com/M127167.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 38 mins (2014-10-27 15:01:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The fact that it's feminine, excéntrica, shows that it means rastra excéntrico, not arado excéntrico (which is a very rare term). Although a "rastra" is sometimes referred to as a plough (plow), it's strictly not the same thing; it's an additional implement for breaking up the ground that has already been ploughed: http://books.google.es/books?id=xzLQnBU6DOkC&pg=PA363&lpg=PA... |

peer agreement (net): +1big tiller Explanation: the excéntrica is just a tiller and gran just means its big, look up tractor con excéntrica and you'll see all kinds of pics and links, you can also look up rastra excéntrica to get the idea. When looking at the John Deere page to see what they call this, brand specifications aside its just a tiller, so this would simply mean a big tiller being pulled behind a tractor, excéntrica has nothing to do with being strange or awkward or anything, it's just the name of the implement itslef. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2014-10-27 15:47:36 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- also since this is a a screenplay it just needs to be a simple description to convey the idea and this is all it is, a tractor pulling a big/large tiller |
