- the subframe also supports a second engine and a transmission which operatively interconnects the second engine and the excavating wheel assembly.
- An auxiliary conveyor is detachably supported at the rear of the main frame for receiving material from the delivery end of the conveyor and for transporting the material either rearwardly or laterally.
- a plurality of ballast tanks are mounted on the main frame for receiving liquid to counterbalance the weight of the auxiliary conveyor.
- the excavating wheel assembly preferably comprises a center wheel and a pair of side wheels which are supported on the subframe for rotation about a common axis.
- cross conveyors are provided for transporting material from the side wheels to the material receiving portion of the main conveyor.

- the vertical positioning of the material delivery portion of the main conveyor is lowered, and the auxiliary conveyor is removed.
- Structure is provided for pivoting the subframe to position the excavating wheel above and below the highest and lowest elements of the system, respectively. This permits use of the excavating and loading system in tunneling operations.
- FIG. 1 is a side view of an excavating and loading sys tem comprising the preferred embodiment of the invention
- FIG. 2 is a partial top view of the excavating and loading system shown in FIG. 1',
- FIG. 3 is a partial front view of the excavating and loading system
- FIGS. 4, 5, and 6 are enlarged side views of the rear. central, and forward portions of the excavating and loading system, respectively;
- FIGS. 7 through 12 are illustrations of various systems for actuating the rear plates of the digging buckets of an excavating and loading system incorporating the invention.
- FIG. 13 is a side view of an excavating and loading system comprising an alternative embodiment of the invention.
- the system 20 comprises a vehicle 22 including a main frame 24 which is supported by four wheels 26 for movement along a surface S.
- Each of the wheels 26 comprises a pneumatic tire 28 whereby the excavating and loading system 20 is adapted for movement over highways and other paved surfaces as well as for operation in unpaved areas, such as during an excavating operation.
- a first engine 30 is supported on the main frame 24 of the vehicle 22.
- the first engine 30 is an internal combustion engine and functions to drive a plurality of hydraulic pumps 32.
- the pumps 32 in turn supply operating power for various components of the excavating and loading system 20.
- one of the pumps 32 supplies operating power for a hydrostatic drive 34.
- the hydrostatic drive 34 is coupled to a transmission 36 including a brake 38.
- the transmission 36 provides dual outputs which are coupled to a forward differential 40 and a rear differential 42 by a plurality of drive shafts 44.
- the hydrostatic drive 34 operates by means of the wheels 26 to propel the excavating and loading system both during excavating operations and during travel.
- An excavating system 50 comprises the forward portion of the excavating and loading system 20.
- the excavating system 50 includes a subframe 52 which is sup ported on a shaft 54 for pivotal movement relative to the vehicle 22 under the action of a pair of hydraulic cylinders 56.
- Operating power for the cylinders 56 is supplied by one of the pumps 32 which are driven by the first engine 30.
- the excavating system 50 further includes an area vating wheel assembly 58 which is supported at the front end of the subframe 52.
- the excavating wheel assembly 58 is driven by a second internal combustion engine 60 which is supported at the rear end of the subframe 52.
- the engine 60 provides operating power for the excavating wheel assembly 58 but otherwise plays no part in the operation of the excavating and loading system 20.
- This arrangement has been found to be highly satisfactory for two reasons. First, it permits selection of the second engine 60 on the basis of the power requirements of the excavating system 50 only and not on the basis of the power requirements of the other components of the excavating and loading system 20. Also.
- the second engine 60 acts as a counterbalance for the weight of the excavating wheel assembly 58. This permits the use of hydraulic cylinders 56 of reduced size and also reduces the amount of power that is required in manipulating the excavating wheel assembly 58.
- a crumbing shoe 62 is supported at the front end of the vehicle 22 of the excavating and loading system 20 beneath the excavating wheel assembly 58.
- the crumbing shoe 62 is connected to the vehicle 22 by a pair of turnbuckles 64 and is also connected to the subframe 52.
- the excavating wheel assembly 58 comprises three excavating wheels 66A, 66B. and 66C, which are rotatably supported on the subframe 52 by a shaft 68 and a plurality of bushings 70.
- the second engine 60 drives a speed reducer 72 which in turn drives a right angle drive 74.
- the right angle drive 74 actuates a pair of chain and sprocket drives 76 each including a sprocket 78 driven by the right angle drive 74, a chain 80 driven by the sprocket 78, and a sprocket 82 driven by the chain 80.
- the chains 80 and the sprockets 82 are mounted within the subframe 52, which constitutes a housing, and are therefore protected from damage to accumulations of dirt, etc. during the operation of the excavating and loading system 20.
- Each sprocket 82 is mounted on a shaft 84 which is rotatably supported in the subframe 52 and which in turn supports a pair of pinions 86.
- the pinions 86 are each mounted in mesh with a ring gear 88 mounted on one of the wheels 66 whereby the second engine 60 functions to rotate the wheels.
- the center excavating wheel 66B is provided with two ring gears 88 and is driven by two pinions 86, whereas the side exca vating wheels 66A and 66C support a single ring gear 88 and are driven by a single pinion 86.
- the excavating wheels 66 of the excavating wheel assembly 58 each includes a hub 90 and a pair of rims 92 which extend radially outwardly from the hub.
- the excavating wheels comprise a plurality of digging buckets 94 which are equally spaced circumferentially around the hub 90 and which extend between the rims 92.
- the digging buckets 94 each have a cutting edge 96 including a plurality of teeth 98 and a stationary front wall 100 extending generally radially inwardly from the cutting edge 96.
- Each digging bucket further includes a rear wall 102 which is supported for pivotal movement between a digging position and a dumping position.
- the rear walls 102 of the digging buckets 94 are actuated by one of the mechanisms shown in FIGS. 7 through 12 and are manipulated thereby to the digging position when their respective digging buckets 94 are in the lower and forward portion of their rotary motion and to the dumping position when their respective digging buckets are in the upper and rearward portion of their rotary motion.
- the three wheels 66A, 66B, and 66C comprising the excavating wheel assembly 58 have an overall width which exceeds that of the remaining components of the excavating and loading system 20. This has been found to be highly advantageous for two reasons. First, by increasing the width of the excavating wheel assembly 58 over that of a conventional ditching machine, an excavating and loading system incorporating the present invention is capable of excavating considerably more material without increasing the speed of rotation of the excavating wheel assembly. Second, the fact that the excavating wheel assembly 58 is wider than the remaining components of the excavating and loading system 20 permits operation of the excavating and loading system within the excavation that is being formed. This materially reduces the amount of movement of the excavating wheel assembly 58 that is necessary to position the assembly for excavating and for travel, and thereby reduces the overall complexity of an excavating and loading system incorporating the invention.
- the excavating and loading system 20 further includes a loading system 110.
- the loading system includes a main conveyor 112 comprising an endless belt 114 mounted for movement around a course extending angularly upwardly relative to the main frame 24 of the vehicle 22 and including a material receiving portion 116 and a material delivery portion 118. More particularly, the course of the belt 114 is defined by a plurality of rollers 120 which are supported on a conveyor frame 122.
- the conveyor frame 122 is supported on the main frame 24 of the vehicle 22 and includes an upper portion 124 supported for pivotal movement about a horizontal axis under the action of a hydraulic cylinder 126. This permits control over the vertical positioning of the material delivery portion 118 of the conveyor 112.
- the belt 114 of the main conveyor 112 extends around a relatively small drum 128 mounted at the upper end of the frame 122 and around a relatively large drum 130 mounted on the frame 24.
- the drums 128 and 130 are rotated by radial hydraulic motors 132 and 134, respectively.
- the belt 114 is actuated for movement around the course defined by the rollers to move material from the material receiving portion 116 to the material discharge portion 118. It has been found that the positioning of the drums 128 and 130 causes a synergistic effect in that the drum 130 functions to cause the belt 114 to wrap more tightly around the drum 128 and thereby increase the effectiveness of the motor 132 in moving the belt 114.
- a pair of cross conveyors are also supported on the main frame 24 of the vehicle 22.
- the cross conveyors 140 are driven by hydraulic motors 142 and func tion to receive material from the side excavating wheels 66A and 66C and to deliver the material to the material receiving portion 116 of the main conveyor 112.
- all material that is excavated by the excavating wheel assembly 58 is delivered to the main conveyor 112 for transportion thereby from the material receiving portion 116 to the material discharge 118.
- the auxiliary conveyor system includes a frame 152 which is secured to the rear end of the frame 24 of the vehicle 22 by a plurality of pins 154.
- a turntable 156 is supported on the frame 152 for pivotal movement about a vertical axis under the action of a hydraulic motor 158.
- a conveyor 160 is supported on the turntable 156 to receive material discharged from the material discharge portion 118 of the main conveyor 112.
- the conveyor 160 comprises a frame 162 which is supported on the turntable 156 and an endless belt 164 mounted for movement around a course defined by a plurality of rollers 166.
- the belt 164 is driven by a radial hydraulic motor 168, and a hydraulic cylinder is provided for controlling the angular relationship of the frame 162 to the turntable 156.
- the auxiliary conveyor system 150 further includes a stringer conveyor 172 comprising a frame 174 which is supported on the frame 162 of the conveyor 160 by a pair of parallel links 176.
- An endless belt 178 is supported on the frame 174 for movement around a course defined by a pair of drums 180.
- the conveyor 178 is driven by small hydraulic motors (not shown) mounted in the drums 180.
- a hydraulic cylinder 182 extends between the frame 162 of the conveyor 160 and the frame 174 of the conveyor 172 for actuation to manipulate the conveyor 172 between the positions shown in full and in dashed lines in FIG. 4.
- the conveyor 172 When the conveyor 172 is positioned as shown in full lines in FIG. 4, it functions to receive material from the conveyor 160 and to discharge the material from the end of the excavating and loading system 20 remote from the excavating system 50.
- the conveyor 172 is positioned as shown in dashed lines in FIG. 4 material is discharged directly from the conveyor 160.
- This arrangement is highly advantageous in that it permits the positioning of a dump truck or similar vehicle under the discharge end of the conveyor 160 while another vehicle is being loaded from the conveyor 172, and vice versa.
- the hydraulic motor 158 may be actuated to pivot the turntable 156 and the con veyors 160 and 172 supported thereon through an arc of approximately
- the excavating and loading system 20 may also be operated with the auxiliary conveyor system 150 removed, ifdesired. These conditions cause substantial changes in the overall weight distribution of the component parts of the excavating and loading system 20.
- the vehicle 22 is equipped with a counterbalancing system comprising four ballast tanks 192, 194, 196, and 198 located at forward and rearward positions on opposite sides of the vehicle 22.
- a counterbalancing system comprising four ballast tanks 192, 194, 196, and 198 located at forward and rearward positions on opposite sides of the vehicle 22.
- water is selectively pumped to and from the tanks comprising the counterbalancing system 190 whereby changes of the weight distribution of the excavating and loading system 20 caused by manipulations of the auxiliary conveyor system 150 are compensated for.
- the excavating and loading system 20 is operated with the auxiliary conveyor system 150 removed, water is pumped out of the tanks 194 and 198 and into the tanks 192 and 196.
- the hydraulic motor 158 is operated to pivot the auxiliary conveyor system 150 towards one side of the vehicle 22, the tanks on the opposite side of the vehicle are filled with water whereby the change in weight distribution caused by the manipulation of the auxiliary conveyor system 150 is completely counterbalanced.
- the excavating and loading system 20 comprises separate excavating and loading systems 50 and 110, respectively. which are driven by independent power sources. This arrangement has been found to be advantageous in that it permits optimum utilization of both systems. For example, in certain instances it may be necessary to provide maximum operating power to the excavating system 50 and to simultaneously provide maximum operating power to the loading system 110. Such a situation is accommodated much more readily by means of the present invention than would otherwise be possible.
- an actuating system 200 comprises a plurality of push rods 202 each of which is connected between one of the rear walls 102 and a chain 204.
- the chain 204 is generally unconstrained but extends around a roller 206 which is supported on the shaft 68 and which is secured against angular movement relative to the shaft 68 by suitable brackets (not shown).
- each push rod 202 comes into engagement with the roller 206 whereupon its respective rear wall 102 is pushed outwardly to the material dumping position. Subsequently, as each digging bucket is rotated to the lower and forward portion of its circular path, the chain operates through the push rod 202 to positively return the rear wall 102 to the material digging postion.
- This positive actuation of the rear wall 102 in both directions has been found to be vastly superior to the arrangement that has been used heretofore wherein the rear portions were allowed to return to the digging position under the action of gravity.
- FIG. 8 An actuating system 208 that is similar in many respects to the system 200 is shown in FIG. 8.
- the system 208 incorporates a plurality of push rods 210 each connected between a chain 212 and the rear wall 102 of one of the digging buckets 94.
- the principal difference between the system 208 and the system 200 is that the chain 212 of the system 208 is equipped with a plurality of rollers 214.
- the rollers 214 are mounted for movement around a saddle 216 which is fixed to the shaft 68.
- the rear wall 102 of the digging buckets 94 are positively actuated to the dumping position as each bucket is rotated to the upper and rearward por tion of its circular path and is positively returned to the digging position as the bucket is rotated to the lower and forward portion of its path.
- the system 218 includes a crank 220 which is fixed to the shaft 68.
- a collar 222 is rotatably supported on the crank 220, and a plurality of push rods 224 extend from the collar 222 to the rear walls 102 of the digging buckets 94.
- One of the rear walls 102 is connected to the collar 222 by a rod 226 which is fixed to the collar 222.
- the collar 222 is constrained for rotation with the digging wheel whereby the push rods 224 and 226 function to positively actuate the rear walls 102 to the dumping position when their respective digging buckets are in the upper and rearward portion of their travel about the shaft 68 and to positively return the rearward walls 102 to the digging position when their respective digging buckets are in the lower and forward portion of their travel.
- FIG. 10 Still another actuating system 228 is shown in FIG. 10.
- the system 228 comprises a plurality of cams 230 each fixed to one of the rear walls 102 of the digging buckets 94.
- the cams 230 are positioned for engagement with a roller 232 which is supported on an arm 234 that is fixed to the shaft 68.
- Each rear wall 102 is also provided with a spring 236 which functions to return the rear wall 102 to the digging position.
- the spring 236 returns the rear wall 102 to the digging position.
- the system 238 comprises a cam track 240 which is supported on the shaft 68 and which is fixed against rotation with respect thereto.
- the rear wall 102 of each digging bucket 94 is equipped with a cam follower 242 including a roller 244 mounted in the cam track 240.
- the shape of the cam track 240 is such that each rear wall 102 is actuated to the dumping position when its digging bucket 94 is in the upper and rearward portion of its rotation about the shaft 68 and is returned to the digging position when its respective bucket 94 is in the lower and forward portion of its rotation.
- FIG. 12 Yet another actuating system 246 is shown in FIG. 12.
- a pneumatic cylinder 248 is provided for actuating the rear wall 102 of each digging bucket 94 between the digging and the dumping positions.
- Each pneumatic cylinder 248 is equipped with a valve 250 for controlling the flow of compressed air from a manifold 252 to the cylinder 248.
- Each valve 250 is in turn equipped with a cam follower 254 which functions to open its respective valve whenever it is moved inwardly.
- the cylinders 248 and their respective valves 250 are mounted for rotation about the shaft 68 with the digging buckets 94 comprising the excavating wheels.
- a cam 256 is supported in fixed relation to the shaft 68.
- each digging bucket rotates in alignment with the cam 256, its respective cam follower 254 is actuated by the cam 256.
- the rear walls 102 of the digging buckets 94 are returned to the digging position by individual springs 258.
- the actuating system 246 may be modified to provide for return of the rear walls 102 under pneumatic action, if desired.
- the cylinders 248 can comprise hydraulic cylinders rather than pneumatic cylinders.
- an excavating and loading system 20' comprising a second embodiment of the invention is shown.
- the excavating and loading system 20 is similar to the excavating and loading system 20 described hereinbefore in that it comprises a vehicle 22', an excavating system 50', and a loading system
- One difference between the system 20 and the system 20' is that the first and second engines 30 and 60 of the system 20 are replaced with electric motors 30' and 60' in the system 20'.
- the electric motor 60' is positioned in a forward location and in that the angular positioning of the excavating system 50 is controlled by hydraulic cylinders 56' which are arranged somewhat differently from the hydraulic cylinders 56 of the excavating and loading system 20.
- the present invention comprises an excavating and loading system including an excavating wheel assembly mounted at one end of the vehicle and a conveyor which extends upwardly from a material receiving portion adjacent the wheel to a material delivery portion at the opposite end of the vehicle.
- the use of the invention is advantageous over prior art systems in that an excavating and loading system incorporating the invention can be constructed at lower cost and yet has greater capacity than is the case with the various prior art excavating and loading systems.
- an excavating and loading system incorporating the present invention is adapted to provide a finished grade in a single pass and thereby eliminates the need for auxiliary finishing equipment of the type that has heretofore been required to complete excavations made by an excavating and loading system.
- one of the major advantages in the use of the present invention involves the width of the excavating wheel assembly which is in excess of that of the remainder of the system.
- This feature in combination with the rearward or outward unloading of the digging buckets permits operation of an excavating and loading system incorporating the invention to form a ditch having a depth equal to the diameter of the excavating wheel assembly.
- structure may be secured to the excavating wheel assembly for rotation therewith to form tapered side walls on such a ditch. Both of these operational modes are impossible in the case of a machine having either supporting structure or loading apparatus positioned laterally of the excavating wheel.
- An excavating and loading system comprising:
- an excavating wheel assembly comprising axle means and at least two rigid excavating wheels rotatably mounted cantilever on and supported on the axle means, said excavating wheel assembly having a width at least equal to the widest portion of the remainder of the system;
