A lifting aid for lifting and supporting a ground engagement tool has an L-shaped cradle having a longitudinally extending base and back wall. A lifting yoke having at least two tubular arms is slideably connected to the L-shaped cradle through tubular sleeves which extend upward to a lifting point. The tubular arms have an upper portion, and a lower portion angled relative to the upper portion, for forming an inflection point inclined rearward toward the back wall. In a rest position, the inflection point is positioned adjacent the tubular sleeves leaving space for the tool. In a lifted position, the inflection point approaches the back wall for gripping the tool therebetween.
Description
1 "LIFTING AID FOR PLANAR MEMBERS"
2
3 FIELD OF THE INVENTION
4 Embodiments of the present invention relate to accessories for use with heavy equipment such as bulldozers and graders and the like and, more 6 particularly, to accessories which aid in replacement of cutting edges and wear 7 plates or ground engagement tools (GETs) on said bulldozers, graders and the like.
Heavy equipment used for grading, mining and the like is typically fit 11 with a blade which has at least one replacement plate for improving a cutting or 12 grading action of the blade and/or preventing wear of said blade. Often a blade may 13 be fit with both a cutting edge and a wear plate fastened to the blade.
Such plates 14 are often referred to as ground engagement tools or GET.
As wear occurs, the GET is removed and replaced or rotated for use 16 on an opposing side. Typically, a GET may be 8-12 inches high and at least 8 feet 17 long and often weigh from about 500-600 pounds. During replacement, the GET
18 must be lifted to align holes in the GET with holes on the blade and held in position 19 while the GET is secured, such as by bolts, to the blade. Due to the weight and the relatively sharp lower edge of the GET, lifting and supporting the GET is difficult.
21 The difficulty is further enhanced by the fact that the blade is typically at an angle 22 and the center of gravity of the GET is shifted when positioned adjacent to the 23 blade.
1 It is known to provide means for aiding in lifting and supporting a GET
2 for attachment to a blade.
3 US Patent 5,071,183 to Mc Dermott et al. describes an elongate bar 4 having brackets at each end of the bar in which a GET may be supported for mounting to the blade. The bracket provides a fixed width slot in which the GET is fit 6 and supported against a back of the bracket. A suspension member is connected at 7 a center of the bar and is angled for maintaining the GET at the desired angle when 8 suspended from a crane or the like.
9 US Patent 6,241,227 to Berdan et al. describes a cart configured to support a GET at an angle suitable for attachment to a plow or grader blade.
The 11 frame and GET holder are moveable up and down relative to the ground for lifting 12 the GET into pace adjacent the blade. The GET or GET and wear plate are 13 supported against the back of L-shaped cradles which are a fixed on the frame at 14 the desired angle. A nut and bolt assembly aids in retaining the GET in an upright positioned supported against the wall of the cradle.
16 Clearly what is required is a lifting aid which is relatively inexpensive 17 to build and to operate and which can make use of existing on-site equipment, if 18 possible, to assist in lifting and supporting a GET for removal and replacement. Of 19 special importance is that the lifting aid safely and securely support the GET to prevent injury to workers during the process.
2 A lifting aid for lifting and supporting a longitudinally extending planar 3 member, such as a ground engagement tool for a blade, comprises: an L-shaped 4 cradle having a longitudinally extending base and back wall; at least two substantially parallel tubular sleeves spaced apart at a front edge of the base, a top 6 end of each of the at least two sleeves inclined rearward towards the back wall; and 7 a lifting yoke having at least two tubular arms slideably connected to the L-shaped 8 cradle through the tubular sleeves, the tubular arms extending upwardly and 9 connected to a lifting point, the tubular arms having an upper portion and a lower portion angled relative to the upper portion for forming an inflection point extending 11 rearward toward the back wall, wherein in a rest position, the inflection point is 12 positioned adjacent the tubular sleeves for permitting the planar member to be 13 positioned between the inflection point and the back wall, and in a lifted position, the 14 inflection point approaches the back wall for gripping the planar member therebetween.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
6 Having reference to Fig. la, a cutting edge, wear plate or the like, 7 commonly referred to as a ground engagement tool or GET 10, is shown spaced 8 apart from and in alignment with a blade 11 of a piece of equipment, such as a 9 dozer or grader (not shown) to which the GET 10 is to be fastened. A
plurality of holes 12 are formed in a top edge 13 of the GET 10 and co-operate with a plurality 11 of holes 14 formed in the blade 11 for fastening the GET 10 to the blade 11, 12 typically using fasteners 15, such as bolts.
13 As shown in Figs. 2a, 2b and 2c and in the case of a conventional 14 GET 10 for a track dozer 16 (Fig. 2b), the holes 12 are formed at a center 17 of the GET 10 and the GET 10 is formed having reversible edges 18. Less than %2 a 16 height of the GET 10 extends below the blade 11 when fastened thereto.
17 As shown in Figs. 3a and 3b, and in the case of a conventional GET
18 10 fora grader 19 (Fig. 3b), the holes 12 are formed offset from the center 17 of the 19 GET 10 and the GET 10 is not reversible. More than %2 the height of the GET
extends below the blade 11 when fastened thereto.
21 Having reference to Figs. 4 - 8, and in an embodiment of the 22 invention, a lifting aid 20 for supporting a longitudinally extending planar member, 23 such as a GET 10, particularly during lifting and installation onto the blade 11 of a
5 1 dozer or grader 16,19, is shown. The lifting aid 20 comprises a longitudinally 2 extending L-shaped cradle 21 having a base 22 and a back wall 23. At least two 3 substantially parallel tubular sleeves 24 are spaced apart and affixed to a front edge 4 25 of the base 22. The sleeves 24 are inclined inward or rearward toward the back wall 23 at a top end 26. A lifting member or yoke 27 is connected to the L-shaped
6 cradle 21 through the tubular sleeves 24.
7 As shown in Figs. 6b, 6c, 7 and 8 and in one embodiment of the
8 invention, the lifting yoke 27 comprises a pair of tubular arms 28 and a span
9 member 29 connected therebetween at a top end 30 of each of the tubular arms 28.
Further, a lifting point 31, such as a hole for engaging a hook extending from a 11 crane boom (not shown), is formed at a center of the span member 29. The lifting 12 point 31 is aligned with a center of the cradle 21 for supporting the GET
Further, a lifting point 31, such as a hole for engaging a hook extending from a 11 crane boom (not shown), is formed at a center of the span member 29. The lifting 12 point 31 is aligned with a center of the cradle 21 for supporting the GET
10 from 13 lateral movement once engaged in the cradle 21.
14 In an alternate embodiment, as shown in Figs. 9-13, the tubular arms 28 of the lifting yoke 27 extend upwards and towards each other for forming an 16 inverted V-shaped lifting yoke. The lifting point 31 is formed at an intersection 32 at 17 the top end 30 of the tubular arms 28 and is typically a loop 33 welded thereto for 18 engaging the crane hook (not shown).
19 As shown in Figs. 4, 5, 11 and 12 the tubular arms 28 of the lifting yoke 27 slideably extend through the tubular sleeves 24 for connecting the lifting 21 yoke 27 thereto. The sleeves 24 are of sufficient length to prevent binding of the 22 tubular arms 28 therein. A stop 34 is formed at a lower end 35 of each of the tubular 1 arms 28 for preventing the arms 28 from leaving the tubular sleeves 24 once 2 engaged therein.
3 The tubular arms 28 further comprise a lower portion 36 and an upper 4 portion 37 which are angled relative to one another forming a point of inflection 38 therebetween.
6 As shown in Figs. 4 and 11, in a rest position, the tubular arms 28 are 7 positioned having the lower portion 36 engaged in the tubular sleeves 24 with the 8 point of inflection 38 adjacent the sleeves 24 and spaced away from the back wall 9 23 of the cradle 21 to permit the GET 10 to be positioned between the tubular arms 28 and the back wall 23.
14 In an alternate embodiment, as shown in Figs. 9-13, the tubular arms 28 of the lifting yoke 27 extend upwards and towards each other for forming an 16 inverted V-shaped lifting yoke. The lifting point 31 is formed at an intersection 32 at 17 the top end 30 of the tubular arms 28 and is typically a loop 33 welded thereto for 18 engaging the crane hook (not shown).
19 As shown in Figs. 4, 5, 11 and 12 the tubular arms 28 of the lifting yoke 27 slideably extend through the tubular sleeves 24 for connecting the lifting 21 yoke 27 thereto. The sleeves 24 are of sufficient length to prevent binding of the 22 tubular arms 28 therein. A stop 34 is formed at a lower end 35 of each of the tubular 1 arms 28 for preventing the arms 28 from leaving the tubular sleeves 24 once 2 engaged therein.
3 The tubular arms 28 further comprise a lower portion 36 and an upper 4 portion 37 which are angled relative to one another forming a point of inflection 38 therebetween.
6 As shown in Figs. 4 and 11, in a rest position, the tubular arms 28 are 7 positioned having the lower portion 36 engaged in the tubular sleeves 24 with the 8 point of inflection 38 adjacent the sleeves 24 and spaced away from the back wall 9 23 of the cradle 21 to permit the GET 10 to be positioned between the tubular arms 28 and the back wall 23.
11 As shown in Figs. 5 and 12, as the lifting yoke 27 is lifted, such as by
12 a crane, the tubular arms 28 slide to move axially within the tubular sleeves 24 to a
13 second gripping position wherein the point of inflection 38 is lifted and approaches
14 the back wall 23 for pinching or gripping the GET 10 therebetween, Thus, as the lifting yoke 27 is actuated to lift the lifting aid 20 and the GET 10, the tubular arms 16 28 act to grip the GET 10 in the cradle 21 and more securely retain the GET
17 therein.
18 Further, and preferably, the angle formed between the upper and 19 lower portions 36, 37 of the tubular arms 28 is sufficient to position the center of gravity of the lifting aid 20 and the GET 10 supported therein at an angle 21 substantially the same as the angle of the blade 11 to which the GET is to be 22 attached. As a result, less manipulation of the GET 10 and the lifting aid 20 is 1 required for an operator to successfully secure the GET 10 to the blade 11 resulting 2 in a safer operation.
3 Optionally, in the alternate embodiment, a transverse support member 4 40 may be connected between the tubular arms 28, spanning therebetween to increase the structural rigidity and to further support the lifting yoke 27.
6 Having reference to Fig. 13 and in an embodiment of the invention, 7 the tubular sleeves 24 are connected to the base 22 of the cradle 21 through 8 indexing means 50 which permit a distance D, between the point of inflection 38 of 9 the tubular arms 28 and the back wall 23, to be changed to accommodate GET's having different thicknesses.
11 In one embodiment, the indexing means 50 comprises attachment 12 plates 51 connected to an underside 52 of the base 22, adjacent each of the tubular 13 sleeves 24, for removeably attaching the tubular sleeves 24 to the base 22.
Each of 14 the tubular sleeves 24 has a flange 53 connected thereto for connecting to the attachment plates 51. The attachment plates 51 have a plurality of holes 53 formed 16 therethrough at spaced intervals therealong for adjusting the positioning of the 17 sleeves relative to the base 22 and thus, the distance of the inflection point 38 from 18 the back wall 23.
19 Optionally, material can be removed from the back wall 23, such as by holes 41 cut from the back wall 23, to reduce the weight of the lifting aid 20.
17 therein.
18 Further, and preferably, the angle formed between the upper and 19 lower portions 36, 37 of the tubular arms 28 is sufficient to position the center of gravity of the lifting aid 20 and the GET 10 supported therein at an angle 21 substantially the same as the angle of the blade 11 to which the GET is to be 22 attached. As a result, less manipulation of the GET 10 and the lifting aid 20 is 1 required for an operator to successfully secure the GET 10 to the blade 11 resulting 2 in a safer operation.
3 Optionally, in the alternate embodiment, a transverse support member 4 40 may be connected between the tubular arms 28, spanning therebetween to increase the structural rigidity and to further support the lifting yoke 27.
6 Having reference to Fig. 13 and in an embodiment of the invention, 7 the tubular sleeves 24 are connected to the base 22 of the cradle 21 through 8 indexing means 50 which permit a distance D, between the point of inflection 38 of 9 the tubular arms 28 and the back wall 23, to be changed to accommodate GET's having different thicknesses.
11 In one embodiment, the indexing means 50 comprises attachment 12 plates 51 connected to an underside 52 of the base 22, adjacent each of the tubular 13 sleeves 24, for removeably attaching the tubular sleeves 24 to the base 22.
Each of 14 the tubular sleeves 24 has a flange 53 connected thereto for connecting to the attachment plates 51. The attachment plates 51 have a plurality of holes 53 formed 16 therethrough at spaced intervals therealong for adjusting the positioning of the 17 sleeves relative to the base 22 and thus, the distance of the inflection point 38 from 18 the back wall 23.
19 Optionally, material can be removed from the back wall 23, such as by holes 41 cut from the back wall 23, to reduce the weight of the lifting aid 20.
