Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a component is provided. The method includes providing one or more notches on a surface of the component. Further, depositing a coating on the surface to provide a thickness of the coating on the surface, is performed. The method also includes removing, at least partially, the coating from the surface such that the thickness of the coating over the notches is different from the thickness of the coating on the surface adjacent to the notches.
Abstract:
Provided is a construction machine in which a pair of boss parts (17L, 17R) coupled via a boss pipe (18) are welded to a tip end of an arm (7), a coupling pin (16) is rotatably supported in bushes (20L, 20R) of the respective boss parts (17L, 17R), and brackets (8b) of a bucket (8) are coupled to opposite ends of the coupling pin (16). An inner pipe (25) is fitted onto the coupling pin (16) on an inner circumferential side of the boss pipe (18), and defines a grease passage (26) between the coupling pin (16) and the inner pipe (25). Left and right gaps between the boss pipe (18) and the inner pipe (25) are closed with side plates (27L, 27R), and a pair of grease chambers (28L, 28R) communicating with each other via the grease passage (26) are defined. A grease supply pipe (29, 30) has a base end welded to a center of an outer circumferential surface of the inner pipe (25) in an axis (C) direction, and a tip end opened in a left side plate (7L) of the arm (7), so that a nipple (33) is mounted to the tip end.
Abstract:
A boom apparatus comprises a boom structure, at least one flexible line, a fluid cylinder, and a barrier. The boom structure comprises a first boom and a second boom attached pivotally to the first boom. The at least one flexible line extends along the boom apparatus. The fluid cylinder is attached pivotally to the first boom and the second boom. The fluid cylinder comprises an end portion pinned to the second boom. The barrier is positioned between the end portion and the second boom. The at least one flexible line is routed externally of the second boom through a passageway positioned between the barrier and the second boom such that the barrier spaces the at least one flexible line apart from the end portion.
Abstract:
A pivot mechanism for adjusting a blade on a work vehicle is provided. The pivot mechanism includes a bushing bolt fastened to a mounting bracket on the blade. The bushing bolt has a spherical portion fixedly positioned between coupling ends and configured to receive a bushing. The pivot mechanism further includes a cylinder coupled to the bushing bolt for controlling the position of the blade.
Abstract:
A support rail for a swing gear assembly having a thrust rail coupled to a swing gear includes a substantially horizontal first surface configured to be coupled to the swing gear such that the first surface engages a substantially horizontal top face of the swing gear, and a substantially vertical second surface intersecting the substantially horizontal first surface such that the second surface is substantially perpendicular to the first surface. The second surface is configured to engage a substantially vertical face of the thrust rail when the first surface is coupled to the swing gear. The first surface and the second surface are configured to inhibit a rotation of the thrust rail relative to the swing gear by engaging the top face of the swing gear and the vertical face of the thrust rail simultaneously.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a double-structure bush usable in a joint portion which operates in low-speed and high-load, and a bearing assembly comprising the same.
Abstract:
A linkage pin joint assembly may include a portion of a first machine member having a first bore, a portion of a second machine member having a second bore, and a linkage pin pivotally interconnecting at least the first and second machine members. The linkage pin may extend between the first and second machine members, and be positioned at least partially within the first bore of the first machine member and the second bore of the second machine member. The linkage pin may extending at least partially through the first and second bores and pivotally support the first and second machine members relative to each other. The linkage pin may be coated with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating over at least a portion of an outer diameter surface of the linkage pin, the coating providing a contact layer between the outer diameter surface of the linkage pin and at least one of a mating inner diameter surface of a joint bushing positioned within one of the first and second bores through the first and second machine members and a mating inner diameter surface of one of the first and second bores.
Abstract:
Provided are a novel sliding bearing and a construction machine provided with same, the sliding bearing being capable of maintaining an excellent sliding performance over a long period of time and exhibiting an excellent strength. A sliding bearing includes at least a brush and a shaft part, the shaft part being provided with a grease feeding pathway for feeding grease from the exterior to the sliding surfaces of the shaft part and the bush, the bush being formed from a porous sintered metal, and a decomposition catalyst being adhered to the sliding surface of the bush.
Abstract:
An iron-based sintered sliding material includes: a sintered structure which contains 10-50 wt. % copper and 1-15 wt. % carbon and has been formed by sintering a powder mixture obtained by mixing at least one of an Fe—Cu alloy powder containing copper in an amount which is the solid solubility or larger and is 5-50 wt. %, excluding 50 wt. %, and an Fe—Cu—C alloy powder containing copper in an amount which is the solid solubility or larger and is 5-50 wt. %, excluding 50 wt. %, and containing carbon in an amount of 0-5 wt. %, excluding 0 wt. %, with a graphite powder and at least one of a copper powder and a copper alloy powder; and graphite particles dispersed in the sintered sliding material in an amount of 1-14 wt. % or 3-50 vol. %.
Abstract:
Between an inner race and an outer race, a plurality of thrust rollers supporting the inner race and the outer race capable of relative rotation are provided. A thrust cage for retaining each thrust roller capable of rolling is composed of a plurality of cage separate bodies separated and arranged in a roller accommodating space. The cage separate body has two projecting portions having a semicircular cross-sectional shape provided on an outer wall surface of an outside connecting portion spaced apart from each other in a peripheral direction of the outer race. With relative rotation between the inner race and the outer race, when each cage separate body is displaced toward an inner peripheral surface side of the outer race, a top portion of each projecting portion is brought into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the outer race.
