System, method, and apparatus for planter weight transfer

A removably installable row planter tool bar weight transfer system adapted to adjust weight transfer along a row planter tool bar by an actuator, the system comprising:

• a first bracket assembly configured to be removably mounted on a first portion of a row planter tool bar, the first bracket assembly comprising:
• a primary bracket plate;
• a secondary bracket plate;
• a lower tool bar plate;
• a first set of fasteners for securing the primary bracket plate to the secondary bracket plate and for securing the primary bracket plate and secondary bracket plate to the lower tool bar plate;
• a second bracket assembly adapted to be removably mounted to a second portion of the row planter tool bar, the second bracket assembly comprising:
• a primary bracket plate;
• a secondary bracket plate;
• a lower tool bar plate;
• a second set of fasteners for securing the primary bracket plate to the secondary bracket plate and for securing the primary bracket plate and secondary bracket plate to the lower tool bar plate;
• a mid plate assembly comprising a first and a second mid plate and being interconnected with the first and second bracket assemblies to facilitate transfer of force between the first and second bracket assemblies;
• an actuator operatively disposed and connected with the first and second tool bars by the first and second bracket assemblies;
• and
• wherein the first bracket assembly and the second bracket assembly when secured to the row planter tool bar are adapted to provide for the application of a force on the row planter tool bar by the actuator.
