Integrated CB microphone control
A control system of a work machine including an operator's cab and an implement, the system comprising a vehicle control unit for controlling the machine; a first control device located in the cab for controlling a steering function of the machine; a second control device located in the cab for controlling the implement; a CB transceiver located in the cab, the CB transceiver configured to receive and transmit signals; and a CB microphone control disposed on the first control device or the second control device, the CB microphone control being operably actuable between an active position and an inactive position, where in the active position the transceiver is enabled to transmit a signal, and in the inactive position the transceiver is enabled to receive a signal.
APPARATUS FOR ATTACHMENT TO A TRACTOR
An apparatus for attachment to a tractor the apparatus comprising a primary implement and at a first end, connections suitable to connect to the three point linkage of the tractor and at a second end, connections suitable to connect to the three point hitch points of a secondary implement.
Utility loader with high lift loader arms and unifying hand grip for dual traction control levers
A compact utility loader is operated by a standing operator at the rear of a frame. A loader arm assembly comprises a scissors linkage on either side of the frame nesting around the prime mover. Each scissors linkage has an upper loader arm that is pivoted at its rear end to rears ends of a pair of lower loader arms such that the pivot connections to the upper loader arm move upwardly and forwardly relative to the frame during elevation of the loader arm assembly to provide a high lift capability. The frame is self-propelled by a differential drive and steering system that is operated by dual levers. A hand grip extends between and unifies the operation of the levers to permit the operator to more easily move the levers in the ways that are needed to provide either straight motion of the frame or turns of the frame.
REMOVABLE SCRAPER DEVICE
A removable scraper device is described herein. The removable scraper device includes an attachment element and a socket defined by the attachment element, wherein the socket is configured to receive a post of a scraper element therein. The removable scraper device further includes a slot defined by the attachment element, wherein the slot is configured to receive a portion of a bucket of a wheeled-machine therein. The removable scraper device further includes an aperture defined by the attachment element and a bolt sized to be received within the aperture. In some embodiments of the removable scraper device, the bolt and aperture are configured to selectively press the attachment element against the bucket to removably secure the removable scraper device thereto.
Front loader
A front loader includes a link operating mechanism spanning a bucket and a stand. The link operating mechanism is configured to cause, using a swing force of the bucket, a bending and stretching link to bend so that propping and supporting of the bending and stretching link are released.
Hydraulic coupling
Disclosed embodiments include power machines, implement coupling systems and methods in which hydraulic or electric coupling between an implement and the power machine is made automatically using an existing actuator, for example a tilt actuator, of the power machine. Thus, additional actuators are not required to achieve hydraulic or electric coupling. In exemplary embodiments, power coupling is also free from the process of mechanically coupling the implement to the implement carrier. Also, in exemplary embodiments, a machine side coupler assembly moves with the implement after a connection is established, despite the implement coupler assembly being removed from the implement carrier. This allows the same implement carrier to be used on all similarly sized machines.

Tubing assembly for a work vehicle
A tubing assembly for a work vehicle includes a tube having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is configured to fluidly couple to a fluid source. The tubing assembly also includes a fitting positioned at the second end of the tube. The fitting includes a first radially-expanded portion configured to engage a first side of a plate that is configured to form part of a chassis of the work vehicle, a threaded portion configured to extend through an opening in the plate, and a second radially-expanded portion configured to engage a second side of the plate to trap the plate between the first radially-expanded portion and the second radially-expanded portion, thereby coupling the tube to the plate.
Front loader
A front loader comprises an arm, a work implement supported to a tip portion of the arm, and an angle display device. The angle display device includes a gauge member, an indicator, a shaft member, and a conversion mechanism. The gauge member has a scale indicating an angle of the work implement relative to the arm. The indicator is movable relative to the gauge member according to variations of the angle of the work implement. The shaft member is movable along the arm according to variations of the angle of the work implement. The conversion mechanism changes a relative position of the gauge member and the indicator according to the movement of the shaft member. The conversion mechanism is configured so as to cause the indicator to rotate relative to the gauge member around a rotation axis being parallel to an axis of the shaft member in one direction or another direction according to the movement of the shaft member.
Construction Machine
A construction machine includes: a cover that covers an engine and a radiator; a radiator fan that is arranged at the rear of a vehicle body frame and discharges exhaust gas toward the rear of the vehicle body frame from the inner space of the cover; an injection device that injects a reducing agent into exhaust gas of the engine; a tank housing section that is arranged at one side of the vehicle body frame, includes an introduction section for introducing outside air, and houses a tank for storing the reducing agent injected by the injection device; and a connection section that is arranged in either the cover or the vehicle body frame and in the tank housing section, connects the inner space of the tank housing section and the inner space of the cover, and allows the outside air and the pipe to pass therethrough, the outside air having been introduced from the introduction section by the suction pressure of the radiator fan, the pipe supplying the reducing agent to the injection device.
