Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a wheel end assembly having a high temperature warning system for giving a warning in the event that the temperature in the assembly reaches a predetermined value such as caused by hub bearing failure or a brake related failure. In one embodiment the system may be a stand-alone system for installation on any vehicle such as a trailer. In another embodiment the system may be combined with an automatic tire inflation system.
Abstract:
A rotary mine drilling bit (10) for making blast holes having a connection (20) at one end (16) of the body (12) for attachment to a drill string and the second end (18) of the body (12) having a plurality of longitudinally extending slots (22). A thrust shoulder (24) is provided between the ends (16 and 18) of the body (12) and longitudinally extending supporting legs (26) are positioned in each of the slots (22) and are releasably connected to the body (12). One end of the supporting legs (26) are positioned the adjacent the shoulders (28) for receiving longitudinal thrust and for avoiding thrust on the connecting means (28). A roller bit (34) is connected to the end of each supporting leg (26).
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to the interface of various components of an automatic tire inflation system and an anti-locking braking system through the inside of a stationary axle (10) of a vehicle. The hub cap (15) includes a rotor assembly of the wheel speed sensor (50) and a coacting stator assembly (52) connected to the end of the axle (10) and a cable (14a) extending from the stator assembly (52) through the inside of the axle.
