A track-type tractor may comprise an operator cab, an engine, a frame supporting the operator cab and the engine, and an implement configured to move a load. The track-type tractor may further comprise at least one hydraulic lift cylinder configured to raise and lower the implement. The hydraulic lift cylinder may include a head end, a rod end, and a cylinder barrel. The cylinder barrel may be connected to the backside of the implement, and the rod end may be connected to the frame.

A pivot coupling system that permits the use of attachable equipment such as material pushers or containment plows with a range of vehicles including all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), utility task vehicle (UTV), lawn and garden tractors, small farm tractors, small trucks, skid-steer loaders, etc.

A control device receives, from an engine load sensor device, a value of an engine load of an engine of an equipment operating in an operating environment. The control device compares the value of the engine load to a target engine load range defined by a minimum target engine load value and a maximum target engine load value. Responsive to determining that the value of the engine load is less than the minimum target engine load value, the control device lowers a cutting blade of the equipment to increase an engagement of the cutting blade with a surface or subsurface. Responsive to determining that the engine load is greater than the maximum target engine load value, the control device raises the cutting blade of the equipment to decrease the engagement of the cutting blade with the surface or subsurface.

A bulldozer has a left planetary gear mechanism, a left steering clutch, and a first clutch gear. The left planetary gear mechanism is disposed between an input shaft and a left output shaft. The left steering clutch switches between transmitting and blocking a rotational force from the input shaft to the left output shaft by the left planetary gear mechanism. The first clutch gear is attached to the left steering clutch. The left steering clutch can is configured to be engaged or disengaged with a left sun gear. The first clutch gear is fixed in an unrotatable manner.

the apparatus was made too move and level dirt, gravel, and other landscaping and paving materials. It utilizes a rear tine tiller, hinge apparatus, and back blade in combination. It opens if the tiller moves forward and closes in reverse. As used the present invention saves countless hours of time when compared to shoveling and leveling material manually.

A dirt scooping, moving, and dumping apparatus for attachment to a tractor, is disclosed. The apparatus includes a dirt scoop defining a volume, a frame pivotably supporting the dirt scoop for rotation of the dirt scoop between a scooping angle and a dumping angle, and an interconnection assembly cooperative with the dirt scoop and the frame. When the dirt scoop is at a scooping elevation, the interconnection assembly is configured to maintain the dirt scoop at the scooping angle while the tractor moves to scoop a material into the volume of the dirt scoop. The interconnection assembly is further configured to automatically release the dirt scoop to allow the dirt scoop to pivot from the scooping angle to the dumping angle when the frame reaches a dumping elevation, thereby automatically dumping the material from the volume upon reaching the dumping elevation.

A coupling system for coupling a tool to be carried over the earth to a mobile tool carrier. The system includes an attachment base for attaching the coupling system to the mobile tool carrier and a center pivot assembly with a pivot that allows a tool support arm to swing to either side of the tool carrier where it extends to the side to allow the tool to be used to the side while the machine moves forward. The support arm includes a vertical hinge that divides the arm into two parts, allowing the arm to fold so the tool can be either in front of the machine or beside the machine. The tool may be connected to the support arm with a quick-coupler having hooks or with a permanent attachment.

A roller device includes a shaft, a bushing, a roller shell, a retainer, and an elastic member. The shaft has a rotation axis. The bushing has smaller-diameter parts on both ends and a larger-diameter part arranged between the smaller-diameter parts with stepped portions interposed therebetween, and is fitted over the outer circumference of the shaft to be rotatable relative to the shaft around the rotation axis. The roller shell has a cylindrical shape, and is fitted over the outer circumference of the smaller-diameter parts of the bushing to abut on the stepped portions. The retainer is formed annularly, is fixed detachably to an end face of the bushing, and abuts on the end face of the roller shell with the elastic member interposed therebetween.
