A cutting device for cutting rock includes a disc and a plurality of cutting elements secured to the disc. The disc is supported for rotation about an axis of rotation, and the disc includes a peripheral edge extending around the axis of rotation. The plurality of cutting elements are spaced apart along the peripheral edge of the disc and positioned in a cutting plane. Each of the cutting elements includes a base portion and a cutting portion including a cutting edge, and the cutting portion has a width that is larger than a width of the base portion.

Mineral bits (10, 100) and associated mounts (30, 116, 200) for use during excavation and mining operations are disclosed. An exemplary bit (10) has a front region (12) and an opposite rear region (14) and comprises a head portion (16) and a mounting portion (18) secured to the head portion (16). The mounting portion (18) can be configured to be releasably retained by a mount (30). A rounded transition (22) disposed in the front region (12) of the bit between the head portion (16) and the mounting portion (18) provides a clearance (C) between the head portion (16) and the mount (16). Mineral bits (10, 100) disclosed can be inserted into and withdrawn from mounts (30, 1 16, 200) by linear and/or rotational movement.

A wear assembly for excavating equipment which includes a wear member and a base each with upper and lower stabilizing surfaces that are offset and at overlapping depths to reduce the overall depth of the assembly while maintaining high strength and a stable coupling. The nose and socket each includes a generally triangular-shaped front stabilizing end to provide a highly stable front connection between the nose and wear member for both vertical and side loading. The lock is movable between hold and release positions to accommodate replacing of the wear member when needed, and secured to the wear member for shipping and storage purposes.

A system for monitoring wear on ground engaging tools of an agricultural implement includes a ground engaging tool supported relative to a frame of the agricultural implement, the ground engaging tool configured to rotate with engagement of the ground during operation of the agricultural implement, a non-contact sensor configured to detect a parameter indicative of wear on the ground engaging tool, and a controller communicatively coupled to the non-contact sensor. The controller is configured to determine a status of the wear on the ground engaging tool based on sensor data received from the non-contact sensor.

A cutting device for cutting rock includes a disc and a plurality of cutting elements secured to the disc. The disc is supported for rotation about an axis of rotation, and the disc includes a peripheral edge extending around the axis of rotation. The plurality of cutting elements are spaced apart along the peripheral edge of the disc and positioned in a cutting plane. Each of the cutting elements includes a base portion and a cutting portion including a cutting edge, and the cutting portion has a width that is larger than a width of the base portion.

A tooth system for a cutter head includes a tooth member comprising a cutting portion and a mounting portion with at least one curved surface, a holder comprising a receiving portion with a curved surface complementary to the at least one curved surface of the tooth member, the receiving portion for receiving the mounting portion of the tooth member. The mounting portion of the tooth member detachably engages the holder such that when engaged, the at least one curved surface of the tooth member and the receiving portion curved surface contact each other at a contact area.

A cutting device for engaging a rock face includes a disc body supported for rotation about an axis of rotation, and a plurality of peripheral portions removably secured to the disc body. Each of the peripheral portions including a plurality of cutting bits positioned on a peripheral edge. The peripheral edge of each peripheral portion is aligned with the peripheral edges of adjacent peripheral portions.

A method for connecting functional elements (14) to a shaft (10, having the following steps: (a) forming elevations (12) for receiving the functional elements (14), said elevations (12) being machined out of the shaft (10) by removing material, and (b) welding the functional elements (14) to the elevations (12) on the shaft (10).

The invention relates to a replaceable blade piece of a working cylinder of a screen crusher. A blade piecehas a frame portion and a blade portion, the longitudinally opposite front surfaces of which form work surfaces. The frame portion has a through hole extending in the longitudinal direction of the blade portion. A channel-like section is formed on opposite sides of the frame portion containing the hole and extends in the vertical direction of a frame portion, between the edge areas of the side with the hole. The invention further relates to a replaceable blade piece holder having a U-shaped frame portion including arm portions, through which extends a longitudinal hole of the frame portion, and a bottom portion. On the opposite surfaces of the arm portions, onto their middle area is formed a bulge, which extends in the vertical direction of the arm portion.

A cutter bit for a work tool on a machine includes a leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, a rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion extending axially rearwardly from the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, an annular ledge extending radially outwardly from a trailing edge of the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, a frustoconical-shaped body portion extending axially rearwardly from an outer circumferential edge of the annular ledge, a cylindrical collar portion extending axially rearwardly from a trailing edge of the frustoconical-shaped body portion, and a trailing end, cylindrical-shaped shank portion extending axially rearwardly from the cylindrical collar portion. The cutter bit may also include a plurality of circumferentially-spaced ribs projecting radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of at least one of the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, or the frustoconical-shaped body portion.
