Construction machine bucket part and manufacturing method therefor
A construction machinery bucket part includes a body including a low alloy cast iron, and a wear resistant tip cast bonded to an end portion of the body and including a white cast iron. The construction machinery bucket part includes dissimilar materials, and has improved economic feasibility and wear resistance.
WASHOUT PROTECTION FOR A BIT
A tool bit includes a working portion, and a shank portion defining a shank free end. The working portion includes a pair of side inserts, and a front insert.
PROTECTED SPRING CLIP FOR RETAINING BITS
An adapter board has an upper moldboard interfacing portion including a rear flat surface, a front surface, and a plurality of retaining spring clip receiving apertures extending from the front surface to the rear flat surface. A lower tool bit attachment portion of the adapter board terminates in a lower adapter board free end defining a bottom surface that defines a plurality of shank receiving bores. Each one of the plurality of shank receiving bores is in communication with one of the plurality of retaining spring clip receiving apertures.
Work implement assembly using a load sharing block with an arcuate profile
A load sharing block includes a body including a flat outer surface defining a first end and a second end, a first arcuate outer portion extending from the first end of the flat outer surface, and a second arcuate outer portion extending from the second end of the flat outer surface. The first arcuate outer portion terminates at a first free end and includes a first elliptical outer surface extending from the first free end.
Cutting edge
A cutting edge for a machine. The cutting edge includes a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side. The cutting edge includes insert apertures along the bottom side. The insert apertures shaped to receive inserts made of harder material than the majority of the cutting edge.
Work implement assembly using an adapter mating with a notched base edge
A base edge includes a plurality of center notches and a first and a second end notches that all include the same configuration, defining a notch depth along direction of assembly, a straight middle portion straddled laterally by a first arcuate corner portion and a second arcuate corner portion, the straight middle portion defining a lateral straight middle portion width, and the notch depth ranges from 0.1 multiplied by the lateral straight middle portion width to 0.5 multiplied by the lateral straight middle portion width.
Work implement assembly using a corner adapter mating with a notched base edge
The first and the second legs and the throat portion of an adapter include an upper surface and a lower surface that at least partially define a slot, and a clearance void disposed at the closed end of the slot. A ratio of the clearance void width to the clearance void height ranges from 2.0 to 3.0.
Work implement assembly using a corner adapter cover
An adapter cover includes a shell body including an exterior surface and an interior surface. A front face portion defines a thru-hole, a top leg extending horizontally from the front face portion and defining an adapter cover key on the interior surface. A top leg side portion defining a concave arcuate portion extending rearward from the front face portion, a convex arcuate portion extending horizontally from the concave arcuate portion, and terminating in a vertical rear surface. A bottom leg extending horizontally from the front face portion.
Work implement assembly using a center adapter mating with a notched base edge
An adapter includes a first leg, a second leg, and a throat portion that define a slot defining a direction of assembly onto a work implement assembly, a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the direction of assembly, and a vertical direction that is perpendicular to the direction of assembly and the lateral direction. The throat portion further includes a first throat side surface disposed along the lateral direction and a second throat side surface disposed on the opposite side of the throat portion along the lateral direction. The first throat side surface defines a first adapter cover receiving recess.
Tip and adapter assembly using a spring steel sleeve design
A tip and adapter assembly includes a spring loaded retainer that includes a lug receiving portion defining a first maximum outside dimension, the lug receiving portion also defining a lug receiving slot that extends partially through the lug receiving portion, forming a first sidewall, a second sidewall, and a catch surface connecting the first sidewall to the second sidewall. A drive portion defines a second maximum outside dimension, and a first flat is disposed on the outside of the lug receiving portion proximate to the first sidewall or the second sidewall.
