  • Patent number: 7909389
    Abstract: A work vehicle includes a frame, a cab structure pivotably connected to the frame and an implement connected to the frame. A body is disposed between the cab structure and the implement to sufficiently limit pivotal movement of the cab structure with respect to the implement to prevent damage to the cab structure by the implement.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 31, 2008
    Date of Patent: March 22, 2011
    Assignee: CNH America LLC
    Inventors: Christopher Dixon Bell, Kyle Brenner, Loras Lavern Weinschenk, Michael David Case
  • Patent number: 7588287
    Abstract: A work vehicle includes a frame, and a cab structure and a seat each pivotably connected to the frame. In response to the cab structure and seat being disposed in an operating position with the frame, the cab structure substantially prevents pivotable movement of the seat.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6679772
    Abstract: A foldable extension for increasing a grain holding capacity of a grain tank of an agricultural harvesting machine. The grain tank includes angularly related upper peripheral portions defining an upwardly facing opening, and the extension includes a corresponding number of extension panels mounted for pivotal movement about the respective upper peripheral portions of the grain tank. Each of the extension panels is pivotally positionable in a deployed position extending upwardly and outwardly relative to the opening of the grain tank at an acute angle of less than about 80° to horizontal, and a generally horizontal folded position extending over a portion of the opening, adjacent ones of the extension panels having adjacent ends defining corner spaces therebetween when in the deployed position.
