  • Patent number: 5108253
    Abstract: A hydraulic piping structure for controlling a boom assembly supported through a swing bracket by a swivel deck of a backhoe. The piping structure includes a plurality of hydraulic hoses for supplying oil from a pressure source mounted on the swivel deck to hydrauylic cylinders for controlling a boom and other components of the boom assembly. These hoses are arranged parallel on an upper face of the boom, with hoses connected to a boom cylinder being curved on a vertical plane. The parallel boses extend to the swivel deck through an interior space of the swing bracket and are fixed in position by a clamp mechanism therein. On the swivel deck, these hoses are separated into two batches and fixed in position by further clamp mechanisms, respectively.

  • Patent number: 4728251
    Abstract: A backhoe vehicle comprising an upper carriage including a driver's section and swivellable 360 degrees on a chassis, and an excavating assembly including a boom, a bucket arm and a bucket. The boom defines a first and a second bent portions so that a distal end of the boom is inclined in a direction in which the boom is lowered. An excavating assembly holder is attached to a front region of the upper carriage and adjacent a transversely mid-position of the vehicle to be pivotable on a vertical axis. The boom is connected to the holder to be pivotable on a horizontal rotary shaft. A boom cylinder for causing pivotal movements of the excavating assembly is connected at one end to the boom and at the other end selectively to a first and a second pivot members defined on the holder. The second pivot member is disposed at a lower rearward position with respect to the first pivot member.
