The towed implement, for example, a farm implement such as a seeding device, comprises a main frame having front and rear ends and at least one steerable surface engaging wheel attached to the frame. The steering device comprising a sensor means mounted on the main frame of the towed implement for sensing a misalignment of the towed implement and the work vehicle and producing a signal corresponding to the misalignment. The steering device further comprises a steering means associated with the steerable wheel for receiving the signal produced by the sensor means and for effecting movement of the steerable wheel in response to the signal until the towed implement and the work vehicle are once again realigned.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de direction afin de faciliter la direction d'un outil remorqué par un véhicule de travail. L'outil remorque, par exemple, un outil agricole comme un dispositif d'ensemencement, est composé d'un châssis principal ayant des bouts avant et arrière et au moins une surface dirigeable engageant les roues reliées au châssis. Le dispositif de direction est composé d'un moyen de capteur monté sur le châssis principal de l'outil remorque pour capter un désalignement de l'outil remorque et du véhicule de travail et produire un signal correspondant au désalignement. Le dispositif de direction se compose également d'un moyen de capteur associé à la roue orientable pour recevoir le signal produit par le moyen de capteur et pour bouger de la roue orientable en fonction du signal jusqu'à ce que l'outil remorque et le véhicule de travail soient à nouveau alignés.
