If you're thinking of something like that (but smaller) it will still
take a lot of machine to pull it. Check out this youtube video:

Note the tractor spinning/hopping around early on...

There was also one called a "soil saver". Looks like this:

Not a great picture, but you'll get the idea.

I would try copying one of these that look like what you think you
want. But, what are you hoping to accomplish with it?

Brinly has several implements made for small garden type tractors and
pretty good diagrams to get ideas from:

It sounds like you want something similar to their cultivator:
