Zusammenfassung:A mineplough 1 comprises at least one blade element set at an angle to the direction of plough movement so that it deflects lifted earth to one or both sides of the plough, each blade element having tines 5b-5j which lift earth ahead of the blade element. The plough further comprises depth control means for controlling the cutting depth of the tines and at least two linkages 6a, 6b and 6c to connect the mineplough to a suitable carrier vehicle. Each blade element is formed by a number of intersecting plates 2a-2 j and 3a-3d whose planes lie substantially parallel to the direction of travel and which define open channels therebetween. Each of the linkages contains at least one crushable element 8 capable of absorbing blast energy.
