SLOPE CUTTING ATTACHMENT FOR BULLDOZERS Filed Oct. 22, 1965 INVENTOR. JOHN w. MARRON A TTOR'NE \6 United States Patent Ofiice 3,430,706 Patented Mar. 4, 1969 4 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A bulldozer is equipped with an adjustable cutting accessory, designated a slope board, pivotally coupled adjacent an edge of the main blade. The slope board is triangular shaped and has a lower cutting edge sloped for slicing into earth. A linkage system for swinging the slope board about a vertical axis has a first power unit for moving the board from a retracted position to a position substantially coplanar with the main blade, and, a second power unit for swinging the board further around to a forward position. As the board is moved from the coplanar to its forward position, the cutting edge slope becomes increasingly steeper so that a desired angle for cutting the earth can be conveniently selected.
This invention relates generally to attachments for earth-moving devices and more particularly to a slope cutting device adapted to be attached to the blade structure of a bulldozer or the like for the purpose of cutting into earth at angles with respect to the horizontal.
The construction of roads and similar projects often involves constructing the roadway to an elevation lower than the surface of the ground. In these areas, called cuts, the design specifications often require that the areas adjacent the roadway slope upwardly at an angle with respect to the roadway surface to prevent the earth in those areas from sliding down onto the roadway.
In present use, bulldozers having front-mounted, pushblades thereon, are used to construct roadways through these cuts. However, the bulldozer blades are mounted in such a manner so as to be incapable of being vertically tilted or angled with respect to the bulldozer. Thus, the construction of the sloped areas adjacent the roadway surface often requires additional earth-moving equipment with the consequent increase in time and expense.
It would, accordingly, be desirable to provide the conventional bulldozer-mounted blade with an attachment which would permit the operator to make angled or sloped cuts in conjunction with the construction of the roadway.
With the foregoing in mind, it is accordingly a primary object of this invention to provide a novel attachment for bulldozers which permits sloped cuts to be made.
Another object is to provide an attachment which may be adjusted to cut into earth at a variety of angles.
Another object is to provide an attachment which may be easily moved into an inoperative position when not in use.
Another object is to provide an attachment of rugged simplified construction which is quickly and easily attachable to and detachable from a bulldozer blade structure without requiring any modification of the bulldozer itself.
Briefly, these and many other objects and advantages of this invention are attained by providing a device which includes a generally L-shaped frame member adapted to be coupled to the existing structure of a bulldozer blade supporting frame. A generally triangular board, hereafter referred to as a slope board, in turn is pivoted for swinging movement about a vertical axis to the frame member and includes a cutting blade secured along its bottom edge. The cutting blade slopes upwardly from the lower end of the vertical pivot axis. Coupled between the slope board and the frame member is a linkage mechanism which includes a primary and a secondary power unit adapted to be operated by a hydraulic power source and control means mounted on the bulldozer.
The linkage mechanism may be actuated to move the slope board from an inoperative position to a variety of cutting positions as desired by the operator. In so doing, the effective cutting angle of the slope board may be varied between given minimum and maximum angles as desired.
The device is preferably constructed to be coupled to the bulldozer blade with only two pins, without requiring any modification of the blade or bulldozer structure.
A better understanding of the invention will be had by now referring to a preferred embodiment thereof as shown in the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIGURE 1 is a fragmentary perspective view of a bulldozer-mounted blade with the slope cutting attachment of this invention coupled thereto;
FIGURE 2 is a fragmentary plan view of the cutting attachment in inoperative position;
FIGURE 3 is a fragmentary plan view of the cutting attachment in an extended operative position;
FIGURE 4 is a fragmentary front elevation view of the attachment as shown in FIGURE 3;
FIGURE 5 is a fragmentary plan view of the cutting attachment in another operative position; and
FIGURE 6 is a fragmentary front elevation view of the attachment as shown in FIGURE 5.
Referring now to FIGURE 1, there is shown a bulldozer 10 having a conventional push-blade 11 attached thereto by means of a blade support member 12. Attached between the blade 11 and support member 12 is a support brace 13 and a cross brace 14.
Coupled to the blade 11 and its supporting structure is the novel slope cutting attachment 15 of this invention. The slope cutting attachment 15 includes a first frame member 16 having a laterally extending fork structure 17 on an end thereof for straddling a portion of the support member 12. Integrally attached to the other end of the frame member 16 is a second frame member 18 extending generally at right angles thereto. The frame member 18 terminates in a fork 19 for straddling a portion 20 of the cross brace 14. A triangular plate 21 is positioned across the juncture of the frame members 16 and 18 to overlie a portion of the support member 12. The frame member 18 is coupled to the cross brace 14 by a pin 22 extending through the fork 19 as shown. The frame 16 is similarly coupled to the support member 12 by a second pin 23 passing through the fork 17.
The front end of the frame member 16 adjacent to the bulldozer blade 11 terminates in a vertical hinge 24 pivotally mounting a slope board 25. Positioned along the bottom edge of the slope board 25 is a cutting blade 26 secured as by rivets or fasteners 26a. The cutting blade 26, as shown, slopes upwardly from the horizontal.
Swinging movement of the slope board 25 about the hinge 24 is effected through a linkage mechanism ineluding a pivot pin 27 pivotally mounting a bell crank 28 to a frame member 16, together with primary and secondary power units 29 and 30.
Connected to the end of each of the power units 29 and 30 are hydraulic lines L which conduct hydraulic fluid from a bulldozer mounted power source (not shown) to the respective power units.
As best shown in FIGURE 2, the primary power unit 29 may constitute a hydraulic cylinder pivotally mounted at 31 to the plate 21 and including a piston rod 32 pivotally mounted at 33 to an end of the bell crank 28. The secondary power unit 30 similarly may constitute a hydraulic cylinder pivotally mounted at 34 to the other end of the bell crank 28 and including a piston rod 35 pivotally mounted at 36 to the slope board 25.
Referring now to FIGURE 3, it will be seen that the power unit 29 has been actuated to pivot the bell crank 28 such that the slope board is disposed generally at right angles with respect to the frame member 16.
In this position, and as shown in FIGURE 4, which is a front view of the device in the position shown in FIG- URE 3, the cutting blade -26 forms an angle C with a line forming a right angle with the direction of travel of the bulldozer or parallel to the bottom edge of the bulldozer blade 11. This angle C represents an effective cutting angle for the slope board 25.
Referring now to FIGUR-ES 5 and 6, when the power unit is actuated to swing the slope board 25 to a more forward position with respect to the frame member, the effective cutting angle C is increased over that shown in FIGURE 4.
With the foregoing description in mind, the entire operation of the slope cutting attachment will now be described.
Initially, the bulldozer may be used in a conventional manner with or without the attachment. In this respect, if the attachment is secured to the bulldozer blade frame structure by the pins 22 and 23 as described, the slope board 25 may be swung adjacent to the frame member 16, as shown in FIGURE 2, in an operative position until such time as it is desired to use the same.
To pivot the slope board to the position shown in FIGURE 3, the power unit 29 is actuated to draw the piston rod 32 within the unit. This movement causes the bell crank 28 to pivot about the pin 27, causing the slope board to pivot about the hinge 24 to the position shown in FIGURES 3 and 4. In this position a minimum slope cutting angle C is defined.
To increase the effective cutting angle, the slope board may be pivoted forwardly to the position shown in FIGURES 5 and 6 by the movement of the piston rod outwardly from the secondary power unit 30', or alternately, the slope board may be pivoted or swung rearwardly to a position intermediate that shown in FIG- URES 2 and 3.
From the foregoing, it is apparent that the slope board can be pivoted to any position desired, thus varying the effective cutting angle C from a minimum when the slope board is in the position shown in FIGURES 3 and 4 to greater angles when the slope board is pivoted forwardly or backwardly from that position.
It is also apparent that the slope board can be easily pivoted back to an inoperative position when desired as shown in FIGURE 2, or all the way forwardly to define a side scoop for the main bulldozer blade 11.
The simplified construction of the novel slope cuttin attachment enables the device to be quickly and easily attached to and removed from a conventional bulldozer blade without modifying the existing structure of the blade, the insertion and/or removal of the two pins 22 and 23 being the only operation required.
It should be understood that an additional slope board could be attached to the other side of the bulldozer blade 11 if desired and both operated simultaneously or individually.
Various other changes falling within the scope and spirit of this invention will occur to those skilled in the art. The slope cutting attachment is, therefore, not to be thought of as limited to the specific embodiment set forth.
