20100101895 | PALLET FORK WITH IMPROVED VISIBILITY AND VERSATILITY - A pallet fork includes a structural frame, a fork bar, a swing bar, and a pair of fork tines. The fork tines can be fixed or swinging through the removal of the swing bar. The swing bar can be conveniently stored onboard the pallet fork when it is inoperative. The structural frame is arranged for enhanced visibility by an operator to the fork tines to improve productivity and operator comfort. | 04-29-2010 |
20130092478 | PALLET FORK - A pallet fork includes a frame having a top support tube and a bottom support tube between opposing end plates. A fork bar and a carriage plate are supported by the frame. A fork tine is mounted to the fork bar via a slotted tube. The fork tine includes a vertical leg and a horizontal leg. The slotted tube is at an upper portion of the vertical leg. A locking plate is provided on the top support tube. An upper locking member selectively inserted through a slot in the slotted tube and through one of a plurality of notches to engage the vertical leg of the fork tine with the locking plate and restrict lateral motion of the fork tine. The upper locking member has a head portion with an open point that rests on a top surface of the top support tube. | 04-18-2013 |

20110020061 | QUICK COUPLER - A quick coupler includes mounting structure for mounting the coupler to a machine, and for mounting the coupler to an implement. The mounting structure on the coupler includes wedge coupling surfaces and a tube. The mounting structure on the implement includes hooks for engaging the tube, and complementary wedge coupling surfaces. The wedge coupling surfaces wedge together during coupling to produce and tight fit and solid hold between the coupler and implement. The mounting structure is robust, and can accommodate future possible wear. The kinematic impact on the performance of the implement due to the use of the quick coupler is minimized. | 01-27-2011 |
20120325505 | Coupler With Visibility Window - A coupler for connecting an implement to a machine includes a first mounting structure configured to attach the coupler to the implement. The first mounting structure includes a first actuator including a first cylinder rod extendable relative to a first cylinder body. The first cylinder rod has a first rod longitudinal axis. The first mounting structure also includes a first wedge attached to the first cylinder rod. The first wedge is movable between a retracted position and an extended position by the first actuator. The first wedge includes a first wedge tip insertable into the implement. The first wedge tip has a first wedge longitudinal axis. The first rod longitudinal axis is offset from the first wedge longitudinal axis to form a first opening extending through the coupler adjacent the first actuator. The coupler also includes a second mounting structure configured to attach the coupler to the machine. | 12-27-2012 |
20130028696 | Locking Members For Pallet Fork - A pallet fork including a frame and a fork tine. The frame supports a fork bar and a carriage plate. Further, the fork bar and the carriage plate extend in a longitudinal direction of the pallet fork. The fork tine is mounted to the fork bar. Also, the fork tine has a swingable motion and a lateral motion relative to the fork bar. Moreover, the fork tine includes a vertical leg and a horizontal leg. A bracket is attached to the vertical leg of the fork tine. A first locking member is selectively inserted in the bracket to engage the fork tine with the carriage plate and restrict the swingable motion of the fork tine. | 01-31-2013 |
20140212210 | TOOL COUPLER HAVING A MODULAR FRAME CONSTRUCTION - A tool coupler for connecting a machine to a tool is disclosed. The tool coupler may have a first frame module having a first pair of side plates and a pair of aligned bores passing through the first pair of side plates. The aligned bores may be configured to receive pins that are connectable to a linkage of the machine. The tool coupler may also have a second frame module releasably attached to the first frame module. The second frame module may have a second pair of side plates and a pair of hooks fixedly connected to the second pair of side plates. The pair of hooks may be configured to receive corresponding pins that are connectable to the tool. | 07-31-2014 |

20130294833 | Extension Mounting System And Method For Attaching Screed Extension to Screed - A screed has an extendible frame portion that includes a catch engaging surface of an extension mounting system. The extendible frame portion is expandable along a lateral extension axis and pivotable about a pivot axis perpendicular to the lateral extension axis. A screed extension has a screed extension frame supporting a mounting catch of the extension mounting system. In a mounting configuration, the extendible frame portion is pivoted to a lowered mounting position, and the extendible frame portion is axially expanded to an extended mounting position in which the catch engaging surface and the mounting catch are vertically aligned. In a lifted configuration, the extendible frame portion is pivoted to a raised lifting position, the catch engaging surface and the mounting catch are in mating engagement, and the screed extension is supported on the extendible frame portion using the extension mounting system. | 11-07-2013 |

20130318841 | TOOL COUPLER SYSTEM HAVING MULTIPLE PRESSURE SOURCES - A tool coupler system is disclosed for use with a machine. The tool coupler system may have a tool coupler with a hydraulic actuator configured to selectively lock a tool to a machine. The tool coupler system may also have a first hydraulic pump configured to generate a first flow of pressurized fluid, and a second hydraulic pump configured to generate a second flow of pressurized fluid. The tool coupler system may further have a valve configured to selectively direct the first or second flows of pressurized fluid to the hydraulic actuator of the tool coupler. | 12-05-2013 |
20130322959 | TOOL COUPLER HAVING ANTI-RELEASE MECHANISM - A tool coupler for a machine is disclosed. The tool coupler may have a coupler frame, a hook coupled to the coupler frame and configured to receive a first pin of a tool, and a wedge operatively connected to the coupler frame. The tool coupler may also have an actuator connected to move the wedge away from the hook to bias a second pin of the tool against the coupler frame, and a latch associated with the wedge. The latch may be movable between a first position at which the wedge is allowed to move away from the second pin, and a second position at which the wedge is constrained from moving away from the second pin. | 12-05-2013 |

20100082167 | METHOD FOR SETTING A BASAL RATE PROFILE FOR AN INSULIN PUMP - Methods for setting a basal rate profile for an insulin pump with an input unit and a calculation unit are disclosed. A number of interpolation nodes for the basal rate profile are defined by means of the input unit of the insulin pump. A continuous function with respect to the interpolation nodes, which images the interpolation nodes and any previously stored basal rates, is formed using the calculation unit of the insulin pump, and a temporal sequence of basal rates to be released by the insulin pump during specific time intervals is generated from the continuous function using the calculation unit of the insulin pump. | 04-01-2010 |
