Abstract: An improvement to a chassis for mobile asphalt plants consists in modularizing the design of the chassis in order to reduce design time and storage costs by virtue of a standardization of the chassis. Thus, the solution fits asphalt plants of different sizes and reduces the physical space required to store items belonging to the structure of the chassis. The high level of standardization has been achieved by segmenting the main structure of the chassis into three regions which appropriately accommodate all of the systems for producing the asphalt mixture.

Abstract: A hydraulically powered trough extension attached to a pipe handling, pipe pickup and pipe laydown tool can be extended hydraulically to facilitate transport of pipe to/from a drill rig. The hydraulically powered trough extension is semipermanently attached to the trough of the pipe handling, pipe pickup and pipe laydown machine to eliminate the need for special equipment to attach a trough extension to the trough. A specially designed hinge enables the hydraulically powered trough extension to be folded so as to lay flat on the trough of the pipe handling, pipe laydown and pipe pickup machine. When the hydraulically powered trough extension is fully extended the hinge mechanism does not obstruct the movement of pipe on or off the pipe pickup and pipe laydown machine. This feature enables the hydraulically powered trough extension to be easily and safely extended for moving pipe to/from the drill platform and when folded for easy transport to another work site without the need for extra equipment.
