Retention system for ripper tips
A work tool or a wear member includes a working portion or a wear portion, a hollow portion that further defines a lock receiving aperture defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction. The axis of rotation is transverse to the direction of assembly of work tool or wear member as the member is slid over a nose portion of a tool adaptor or the like. The axis of rotation is spaced away from the direction the pin receiving thru-hole extends a predetermined distance measured along the direction of assembly.
GROUND ENGAGING TOOL ATTACHMENT ARRANGEMENT
Provided is an arrangement that attaches a ground-engaging tool (GET) to an adapter on support structure of ground/earth engaging/conditioning apparatus. A retainer is in a recess of the adapter. A fastener is received through the GET aperture and into the adapter aperture. The head of the fastener can be within a recess of the GET. The recess can be multi lobed/shaped to receive the retainer and prevent rotation or other torsional/lateral deformation of the retainer when tightening/inserting the fastener. A fastener has a first threaded portion adjacent the head of the fastener and a second threaded portion along a shaft portion of the fastener extending distal from the head. The first threaded portion can be wider and/or of a more coarse thread pitch than the second threaded portion.
TIP WITH THRU-HOLE AND PIN RETAINING GEOMETRY
A wear member includes a forward working portion that is disposed along its longitudinal axis including a closed end, and a rear attachment portion that is disposed along the longitudinal axis including an open end with an exterior surface, and an interior surface. The interior surface defines an interior counterbore with a major diameter, and a minor diameter. A ratio of the major diameter to the minor diameter ranges from 1.8 to 2.2.
WEAR ASSEMBLY FOR EARTH WORKING EQUIPMENT
A wear assembly for earth working equipment includes a base, a wear member and a lock. The lock includes a retainer and a lock body. The retainer is seated in a recess in the base. A key of the retainer is received in the keyway of the wear member as the cavity receives the base. A lock body passes through aligned openings of the base, retainer and wear member to engage the retainer and secure the wear member to the base.
COUPLER FOR AN IMPLEMENT ASSEMBLY
The present invention is related to a coupler for detachably coupling to a work tool is provided. The coupler includes a frame with a first aperture formed therein. The first aperture extends along a first axis inclined with respect to a transverse axis of the frame. The coupler further includes a first locking member provided within the first aperture. The coupler also includes an actuator configured to move the first locking member between an unlocked position in which first locking member is disengaged from the work tool, and a locked position in which the first locking member is engaged with the work tool.
Quick-fit coupling for a wearing part of a soil-working tool
A wearing part arrangement (1) provided with a holder (11) providing releasable attachment of a wearing part (12) by means of a socket-and-pin type quick-fit coupling, wherein the holder (11) comprises a pair of opposing first guide portions (1132) being arranged to face corresponding supporting faces (1221) provided on the wearing part (12), and a pair of second guide portions (1134) arranged to face corresponding top faces (1223) of the wearing part (12), wherein one of the pair of the opposing first guide portions (1132) and the corresponding side supporting faces (1221) of the wearing part (12) is provided with at least one elevation (1222), and the other one of the pair of the opposing first guide portions (1132) and the corresponding side supporting faces (1221) is provided with a corresponding recess (1135) arranged for receipt of the elevation (1222) when the wearing part (12) is in engagement with the holder (11).
RETENTION SYSTEM FOR RIPPER TIPS
A work tool or a wear member includes a working portion or a wear portion, a hollow portion that further defines a lock receiving aperture defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction. The axis of rotation is transverse to the direction of assembly of work tool or wear member as the member is slid over a nose portion of a tool adaptor or the like. The axis of rotation is spaced away from the direction the pin receiving thru-hole extends a predetermined distance measured along the direction of assembly.
