Definitions

  • This invention relates to an earth moving equipment bucket corner for receiving a ground engaging tool (GET) and to an earth moving bucket lip protection system comprising the bucket corner and a GET.
  • the invention also relates to a GET connectable to a bucket corner.
  • Loaders such as underground loaders, provided with buckets play a crucial role in mining production and the like by helping to efficiently move ore for processing.
  • loader buckets are subject to considerable wear that can compromise mining efficiency.
  • GETs were welded onto the lips of buckets and when the GET came to the end of their useful life, they were cut from the bucket, and a new GET welded in their place - for example, the right angled corners of the buckets were protected by a GET welded to the leading edge or lip of the floor of the bucket and also along the leading edge of the upright sides of the bucket.
  • the welding and rewelding steps to fit and remove GETs directly to a bucket ultimately resulted in the weakening of the bucket and also added to a loss of productivity and increased operating costs to a business.
  • PCT Patent Specification No. 2014/037781 describes connection means involving the use of a shroud which mounts about a boss on the lip or corner of an excavator bucket and a locking device in the form of a pin assembly which locates between the shroud and the boss.
  • an earth moving equipment bucket corner comprising:
  • the upper GET contacting surface is parallel with the lower GET contacting surface to within an angle ⁇ of from about 0° to about 5°.
  • the range of angles ensures an optimal parallel configuration for optimal reductions reaction forces.
  • the outside GET contacting surface and the inside GET contacting surface are parallel. This arrangement allows for improved dimensional control of castings together with an improved bucket corner - GET grip and reduced reaction forces.
  • the earth moving equipment bucket corner comprises an intermediate portion extending between and angled with respect to the side upright portion and the floor portion wherein the intermediate portion defines a top GET contacting surface and a bottom GET contacting surface disposed parallel with the top GET contacting surface.
  • the side upright portion, the floor portion and the intermediate portion comprise a leading edge, defining a leading edge plane, for insertion in a GET and the boss comprises a recess in the upper GET contacting surface for abutting a GET connector at an upright GET connector contacting seat, which defines a contacting seat plane, wherein the leading edge plane and the contacting seat plane are parallel.
  • This configuration ensures a reduced bending moment of GET connectors, particularly GET connectors of the pin assembly type.
  • leading edge plane and the contacting seat plane are parallel to within an angle ⁇ of from about 0° to about 20°
  • An angle ⁇ in this range ensures optimal bending moment reductions.
  • the side upright portion, the floor portion and the intermediate portion comprise a chamfer between the leading edge and the inside GET contacting surface, the upper GET contacting surface and the top GET contacting surface respectively.
  • a chamfer allows for effective matching of the bucket corner with the bucket lip.
  • the earth moving equipment bucket corner comprises a GET contacting surface transition zone between the leading edge and the upper GET contacting surface wherein the transition zone comprises a bevel formed from a radiused surface and a first sloped surface intersecting with a first side of the radiused surface.
  • the transition zone allows for a smooth transition between the leading edge and the chamfer.
  • the transition zone also allows for a smooth transition between the bucket corner and a sloped lip of a bucket.
  • the transition zone further comprises a second sloped surface intersecting with a second side of the radiused surface.
  • the bevel of the transition zone can be formed by the radiused surface and a single sloped surface or by the radiused surface and two sloped surfaces as required.
  • the transition zone is formed from a chamfer.
  • the central horizontal longitudinal axis of the boss and the inside GET contacting surface of the side upright portion are parallel to within +/-10°.
  • the central horizontal longitudinal axis of the boss and the inside GET contacting surface of the side upright portion are completely parallel These parallel arrangements facilitate a highly effective fit between the bucket corner and the GET.
  • the invention also extends to an earth moving bucket lip protection system comprising:
  • the GET is connectable with the bucket corner at defined contact points on the GET configured to stand proud of the outer surface of the GET.
  • the contact points provide pre-defined contact areas between the GET and the bucket corner.
  • the GET comprises pads defining the contact points. Pads which stand proud of the GET surface can be applied to individual GETs following casting as required. This configuration allows for better control of mating faces and support positions between the bucket corner and GETs.
  • the earth moving bucket lip protection system further comprises a GET connector for reversibly attaching the GET to the bucket corner at the boss.
  • the invention also extends to an earth moving equipment bucket comprising a bucket corner or an earth moving bucket lip protection system as hereinbefore defined.
