Wing locking assembly for an agricultural implement

An agricultural implement comprising:

• a first toolbar and a second toolbar pivotally coupled to one another;
• an actuating cylinder having a first end pivotally coupled to the second toolbar, and a second end directly coupled between longitudinal ends of a slot in a bracket fixedly mounted directly to the first toolbar, wherein the actuating cylinder is configured to drive the second toolbar to rotate between a raised transport position and a lowered working position, and the second end of the actuating cylinder is configured to move within the slot between the longitudinal ends;
• and
• a locking mechanism rotatably coupled to the bracket of the first toolbar, and configured to drive the second end of the actuating cylinder into a desired position within the slot in response to contact between a cam of the second toolbar and the locking mechanism.

An agricultural implement comprising:

• a first toolbar having a slot;
• a second toolbar pivotally coupled to the first toolbar;
• an actuating cylinder having a first end pivotally coupled to the second toolbar, and a second end directly coupled between longitudinal ends of the slot, wherein the second end is configured to slide within the slot between the longitudinal ends, and the actuating cylinder is configured to induce the second toolbar to rotate between a raised transport position and a lowered working position;
• and
• a locking assembly comprising a cam coupled to the second toolbar, and a locking mechanism rotatably coupled to the first toolbar, wherein the locking mechanism is configured to drive the second end of the actuating cylinder into a desired position within the slot in response to contact between the cam and the locking mechanism.
