A mounting pin assembly includes a first mounting component. The assembly also includes a second mounting component having a first leg located on a first side of the first mounting component and a second leg located on a second side of the first mounting component. The assembly further includes a mount pin extending through an aperture of the first leg, an aperture of the first mounting component, and an aperture of the second leg, the mount pin having a conical shoulder region in contact with a chamfer of the second leg. The assembly yet further includes a self-locking nut plate threaded to the mount pin.

A steering cylinder mount system with a bearing race frictional lock assembly for an agricultural machine is provided that frictionally secures a bearing's inner race with respect to another component in a manner that ensures the bearing's inner and outer races rotate with respect to each other in preference to rotating the inner race with respect to an internally arranged supporting component. The bearing race friction lock assembly may frictionally engage multiple surfaces of the spherical bearing's inner race to lock the inner race with respect to its inwardly arranged supporting component(s).

A connecting rod includes a rod having the form of a bar, a smaller end part, and a larger end part. The rod is provided with a friction generation portion at which friction is generated due to deformation of the rod.

The present invention relates to a roller assembly for a trolley conveyor that moves along a rail track including a flange and a web. The roller assembly for a trolley conveyor includes a pair of brackets that is placed respectively on both sides of the rail track, that has the shape of cranks corresponding to each other and that includes a mounting hole for installing a below-described shaft, a roller that is rotatably coupled to the upper end of the bracket so as to be mounted on the web and slide, and a shaft that penetrates the roller, that is coupled to the roller and that is inserted into and fixed to the mounting hole. The roller assembly with the configuration may have a simple structure, may be easily assembled and disassembled and may ensure durability.

A hinge assembly for an agricultural implement having inner and outer wing frame sections has an inner pivot bracket pivotally coupled to the inner wing frame section at a fold pivot location, and an outer pivot bracket pivotally coupled to the outer wing frame section at a flex pivot location and coupled to the inner pivot bracket. An inner pivot link pivotally couples to the inner pivot bracket and the outer pivot bracket, and an outer pivot link pivotally couples to the outer pivot bracket and the outer wing frame section. The inner and outer pivot brackets pivot relative to each other at the fold pivot location between a working state and a folded state, and the flex pivot location moves relative to the fold pivot location during the relative pivoting. When in the working state, the fold pivot location is higher than a top side of the inner wing frame section and the flex pivot location is lower than a bottom side of the inner wing frame section.

A kit of replacement parts and a method are used to replace a roller on a defective pin including a washer and a retaining pin. The invention is particularly useful in conjunction with roll-off trucks and trailers. The method includes the steps of removing the retaining pin, washer and roller from the defective pin, placing a new sleeve over the defective pin, placing a new roller over the new sleeve, placing a new washer over the sleeve, and installing a new retaining component to maintain the position of the new sleeve, roller and washer. In accordance with one embodiment, the new retaining component is a retailing pin used to replace an old retaining pin. According to an alternative embodiment, the new retaining component is a snap retaining ring. The sleeve is preferably hardened, and the defective pin may have a nominal O.D. of 2 inches.

An improved tilting bearing assembly (100) is provided that includes a support bracket and a tilting bearing; the support bracket and the tilting bearing, along with methods of replacing the same are also provided. The support bracket generally comprises a substantially planar upper portion lying in a first plane and having two opposing ends and a pair of elongated openings, each elongated opening extending in a first direction entirely through the upper portion of the support and having a closed end and an opposing open end, the closed end of each elongated opening being equidistant from respective ones of the two opposing ends; and two opposing leg portions, each leg portion projecting at an angle relative to the first plane, extending at respective upper ends of each leg portion from one of the two opposing ends of the upper portion and terminating at respective lower ends of each leg portion.
