Abstract

804,196. Counterweights for balancing cranes. CATERPILLAR TRACTOR CO. Feb. 18, 1957 [Dec. 5, 1956], No. 5385/57. Classes 78 (2) and 78 (4). A counterweight 18 for balancing a crane mounted on tractor 8 is carried by pairs of arms 12, 14 pivoted on frame 11 secured to said tractor 8. The counterweight is displaced sideways by jacks 16, the arms ensuring that the counterweight moves along a substantially horizontal path.
