Abstract: A tilt bucket may include a front structure having an outer surface, the front structure including a base plate with a bottom surface. The tilt bucket may include a bottom edge and a curved wrapper extending between the base plate and the bottom edge. A ratio of a maximum distance between the curved wrapper and a first line extending from the bottom edge to the tangent point on the outer surface of the front structure, taken substantially perpendicularly from the first line, relative to a length of the first line, may be about 0.64 to 0.70.

Abstract: A work implement for a construction machine includes a collection member, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a plate member coupled to the collection member, the first side wall, and the second side wall. The collection member, the first side wall, the second side wall, and the plate member together define a hollow space. Further, at least one of the first side wall, the second side wall, and the plate member define an opening that communicates with the hollow space. The work implement further includes a sensor mounting system including a cover, a plurality of mechanical fasteners adapted to couple the cover with the work implement, and a sensor mounted on the cover. Upon coupling of the cover with the first side wall, the sensor is partially received within the hollow space.

Abstract: A hinge attachment bracket for use with a work implement is provided. The bracket comprises a substantial I-beam configuration that includes a first flange, a second flange, a web that connects the first flange to the second flange and that defines a boss that defines a pin receiving bore that establishes a radial direction, a radial plane and a longitudinal axis. The first and second flanges may merge toward each other tangentially forming a first extension portion.
