    STUDIES ON DESIGN AND SIZE OF BULLOCK DRAWN MULTIPURPOSE PIPE FRAMED IMPLEMENTS IN CONTEXT WITH IMPROVEMENT IN DESIGN AND FIELD PERFORMANCE
    (AAU, Anand, 1987) SAVANI, J. B.; Hakimuddin
    In the present investigations, design and size variations of major components of the bullock drawn multi-purpose pipe framed implements in context with improvement of the design and field performance of implements were studied. Measurement in size and design study for the main components of the implements were carried out to quantity the extent of manufacturing variations. The remarkable extent of variation was observed. The C. V. for length and dia. of head piece pipe was 7.86 % and 8.29 %, respectively. The number of holes and their positions from the centre of head piece are quite irregular and even dissimilar position of the same number of hole from the center of head piece in a single implement. The beam length is divided in two or three stages of different dia. pipe.
