摘要： A track joint is provided with a controlled running clearance by means of a controlled interstice producing membrane placed between the opposing axial thrust surfaces of the joint. The membrane is of a substance which sacrifically self-destructs upon the initial pivotal movements of the joint. The purpose of the membrane is to relieve the joint of compressive loads which become locked in the joint during its assembly and can cause galling of the thrust surfaces and injury to track seals in the joint.

摘要： Conventional apparatus for pressing retaining rings into a track assembly do not properly line up with the retaining ring when the press is under the high pressure required. The subject apparatus overcomes this problem by providing a self-aligning anvil for driving a tool. The anvil has an adapter for mounting it to the press and an anvil member with a work surface for engaging the tool. The adapter engages the anvil member along a semi-spherical mating surface having a radius extending from the intersection of the centerline of the anvil and a plane extending through a tool land of the tool where it engages the workpiece. The anvil member is attached to the adapter by a pin attached to the anvil member which extends across the semi-spherical mating surface into a resilient member mounted in the adapter at its center.

摘要： An improved articulate chain (10) including pivotally interconnected sections (12,14,16) of spaced, coacting links (18,20,22) having the chain driving members (54) intermediate the pivot connections (58,60) to reduce the chain loads thereon. The links (18,20,22) are locked together in a common plane (56) by integral externally splined projections (82) extending therefrom into the internally splined drive bushing (96) to resist torque loads and increase the structural integrity of the chain (10). The links (18,20,22) are releasably coupled together to permit expeditious disassembly and reassembly thereof for servicing.

摘要： A track structure (10) having an annular seal (24) defined by a C-shaped cross section for movably sealing the end (18) of the track pin (17) to an outer bushing surface (20). A shallow portion (32) of the seal is impregnated with lapping compound to lap the confronting sealing surface (20) of the bushing so as to provide a positive seal therebetween. The improved seal eliminates the need for lapping the sealing surfaces of the track structure prior to assembly. The portion (32) of the sealing surface of the seal impregnated with lapping compound provides the desired lapping of the confronting track structure surface as the result of relative movement between the seal and that surface which may be effected during a break-in period as desired.

摘要： Apparatus is connected in the liquid system for separating gas from the liquid, for example. The gas laden oil is directed into a filter positioned within a housing. The filter is of a material sufficient for separating gas bubbles from the oil while passing the oil therethrough. The separated gas passes upwardly and through a gas outlet opening out the top portion of the housing. Degassed oil passes through the filter and from the housing at a location adjacent a bottom end of the housing.

摘要： A machine is provided including a frame and at least one track, such as first and second ground engaging tracks, coupled with the frame. A plurality of pins are provided which each couple together at least two of the links of the tracks and include an outer diameter, a first end and a second end. The first and second ends of the pin may be press fit in first and second bores of first and second links of the tracks, respectively. A non-directional surface finish along a first portion of the length of the pin within the first bore forms a fluid seal with the first bore, whereas a directional surface finish along a different portion of the length of the pin within the first bore inhibits removal of the first end of the pin from the first bore. A method of coupling together machine components via an enhanced press fit is further provided, utilizing a pin having a first surface finish configured to form a fluid seal with a bore of a machine component, and a second surface finish configured to inhibit removal of the pin from the bore.
