3 Claims. (Cl. 37-135 This invention relates to animprovement-in excavating. apparatus and has particular. reference tothe type-commonly recognized as drag line bucketsuand the :prime purpose of the present invention is the provisiontofx-brace means forprotecting the bucket against: damage -thatiscaused by impact engagement upon rocks or-the'like.
It is a commonly recognized-fact, that drag; line buckets have a relatively short life-and require constant; and repeated repairs to maintainthe bucket bottom straight. in order to facilitate the loadingand discharge of excavated material. Attempts have been-madeto strengthen the bottoms of the buckets by .using. a plural? ity of ribs or runners along the bottom andback oftthev bucket,.but such means has proven ineffective and under normal excavating operations, theoperatorlowers the. bucket to the point of diggingrand frequently, as .the bucket is drawn forward and contacts a rockyformation that fails to give, the bucketwith. its fuller partialiload; rises upwardly and, when the rock: formation-breaks" away, the bucket falls back toits normal position; strik; ingjts bottom against the rocks and bending the :bottom inwardly. In a relatively short time,- therbottomthas been: bent inwardly so far, that the bucket fails: to perform; correctly and it becomes necessary to. remove'the bucket: and by suitable pounding, bend the-bottombaclc -toinormal. position. This. action. results in a.-considerablo=loss; oftime and is comparatively expensive rand-aundennormali rocky excavating, the bucket willrequirevrepairingztapr proximately once a week.
An important object of the-present invention-resides: in providing a centrally disposed brace. ton-the bucketa thatis welded upon the inner surface Ofzzthfi bucketiandl'. provides a-rigid novel brace to prevent. inwardbending; of the bucket bottom underpractically,-all fnormal= con-r; ditions: of excavating.

Referring specifically to the drawings, the numeral 5' designates any standard and conventional drag line excavating bucket, having a bottom 6, sidewalls 7 anda rear wall 8. The bottom is. rounded into the rear wall:
arcuate form and the bottom and wall 8 may' be formed-in acontinuous sheet of. material, as may also thebottom and side walls. The forward end of the bucket is formed open and the leading edge of the bottom-6 isprovided with conventional cutting teeth 9. The forward end isalso provided with a conventional yoke: 10,;having connectionwith hoisting cables or chains, as iscustomary. The bucket is also provided with forwardi clevises 11 for connection with draft cables or chains,v while.-the rear portion of the bucket is supported .and
controlled by chains 12, connected to swivels 13. The
structure so far described'is generally conventional withall dragline buckets.
It has been found, that when excavating rock or the like, the'bucket when being-dragged forwardly for cutting or digging action, will frequently engage a mass that isso hard-as tocause the loaded or partially loaded' bucket? to fulcrum upwardly upon the teeth 9 and, as the rock'mass breaks away, the loaded-bucket drops back-to thehorizontal position-and strikes. the. rock surface with considerable force,-accelerated by theload in the bucketand. causes: the bottom of the bucket, adjacent its rear end to be progressivelybent inward. This is understandable-when it is considered that the bucket,-plus its load,.-.weighs-.several thousand. pounds. Due. to this poundinglyand bending, it becomes necessary to discon-- nest and transport the bucket to a point of repair and the bottom'then pounded out to its original shape. AS
the bottom is bent inwardly, the loading and discharge thereof: becomes increasingly more dilficult andgreatly reduces thevolume of work-possible in. the usual workvideaa novel'brace means within the bucket,- that will absorb the external forces of pounding impact to the ex-' tent-that the-bottom and rear .wall are adequately braced against inward: bending.
The brace of the present invention is rigidly welded in"position;withinthebucketand designated as awhole by-the numeral'14; The brace 14 iscentrally arranged and extends longitudinally of the bucket, engaging :both
thebottomwall6 and rear wall 8 in that area subjected .-to-external. forces; The: braceconsists of a centhe: bottom andrear .Wall of the bucket.

side angularly disposed plates 20, slotted at 21, for the PatentedNov. 15, 1955.
reception of the tongues 19 at assembly. The plates I 20 have a straight upper edge 22 that normally parallels the edge 16 of the plate 15 at assembly and a curved lower edge 23 that conforms to the curvature of the bottom and rear wall 6 and 8 at their point of merging. The plate at assembly is welded along its upper edge 22 throughout its contact with the plate 15 and also throughout its curved edge 23, to the bottom of the bucket. The plate 20 is also welded throughout the engagement of the tongues in the slots 21. As shown, the gussets are positioned in radial form and the number of gussets employed is determined by the size of bucket and the estimated weight thereof and the weight of the estimated load supported within the bucket.
In the assembly of the brace 14, the overall length of the desired brace is determined and the lower edge of the plate 15 is cut to conform to the bottom of the bucket. The plate is then positioned within the bucket in vertical position and welded to the bucket along its entire curved edge 17. The number and sizes of gussets having been determined, they are positioned upon opposite sides of the plate 15 and temporarily supported in angular and radial position in contacting relation with the sides of the plate 15 and the bottom of the bucket. Any suitable template may be employed for the temporary support of the gussets. The gussets are then welded to the plate 15 and the bottom of the bucket throughout the right angular edges. The plates 20, having been preformed, are then positioned over the gussets at both sides of the plate 15, with the tongues 19 seated within the slots 21. In this position, the edge 22 contacts and parallels the edge 16 of the plate 15, while the lower edge 23 contacts the bottom of the bucket throughout its length. The edges 20 and 23 are then welded throughout their length to the edge 16 and bottom of the bucket respectively. The plate 20 is then welded throughout the length of the several tongues of the gussets. It will thus be seen, that a very rigid brace has been provided that is angularly disposed at the rear portion of the bucket in that area found to absorb the major portion of all external forces. The stress of external force is thus transmitted throughout the brace both longitudinally and laterally, while the assembled brace is of inverted V-shape in cross section and offers no obstacle to the loading and unloading of the bucket.
As an additional safeguard against inward bending, should the bucket be dropped forcibly upon its rear wall 8, a transverse horizontally arranged rib 24 is welded to the outer face of the wall 8 at a point above the brace 14. The rib 24 will obviously be notched to engage over the conventional external runners 25 of the bucket, with the engaging edge of the rib being welded throughout its length to the bucket. Gussets 26 are preferably welded to the rib 24 above and below and to the wall 8 of the bucket. An external force striking the rib 24 will be transmitted through the brace 14 longitudinally thereof, with the force being distributed both longitudinally and laterally.
It will be apparent from the foregoing, that a very novel and highly efficient brace means has been provided for drag-line buckets. The brace rigidly supports the bottom and rear wall against inward bending and does not interfere with the loading action of the bucket nor the discharge of such load. The incline of the brace both longitudinally and upon its sides, prevents rocks or the like from catching and hanging in the bucket. It is contemplated that the brace shall be installed within drag-line buckets as original equipment, but the application of the brace to those buckets now in use is simple and cheap to install and greatly adds to the life of the bucket and avoids the very costly delays now encountered in straightening and repairing the buckets after their bottoms have been bent inward.
Since the buckets will not be removed from service periodically for repair, the production will be very considerably increased.
It is to be understood, that the invention is not limited to the precise arrangement shown, but that various changes in the shape, size, materials and methods of assembly may be resorted to as clearly fall within the spirit of the invention or the scope of the subjoined claims.
