Abstract: The invention relates to an interchangeable chisel holder (40) which can be fixed to a milling drum (15) of a ground-working machine (10), having a forward chisel holder (42) for the interchangeable holding of a forward chisel (20), preferably a round-shaft chisel, and having a rearward chisel (30, 31), which is held on the interchangeable chisel holder (40), wherein, as based on a working movement (76) of the interchangeable chisel holder (40) when used in the ground-working machine (10), the rearward chisel (30, 31) is arranged behind the forward chisel holder (42). In such an interchangeable candleholder (40) provision can be made, according to the invention, for the rearward chisel (30, 31) to be held on the interchangeable chisel holder (40) axially and fixed in the circumferential direction of the chisel holder. Maintenance-induced stoppages of the ground-working machine can thus be reduced and the loss of chisels can at least be lowered.

Abstract: The invention relates to a tool combination consisting of a chisel holder, which can be fastened to a milling drum of a soil tillage machine, and at least one leading and one trailing chisel, which are retained on the chisel holder, wherein the trailing chisel is arranged after the leading chisel, based on a working movement of the tool combination in use in the soil tillage machine, and wherein each chisel has a chisel tip having a cutter. According to the invention the trailing chisel tip of the trailing chisel has, at least in some areas, a greater hardness than the leading chisel tip of the leading chisel. Thus stoppage times of the soil tillage machine for maintenance can be reduced and the loss of chisels can at least be decreased.

Abstract: A conveyor chain includes a first link, a second link, and a coupler link. The first link includes a first sprocket-engaging portion and a second sprocket-engaging portion, each protruding laterally away from one another. The second link includes a first sprocket-engaging portion and a second sprocket-engaging portion, each protruding laterally away from one another. The coupler link couples the first link to the second link, and the coupler link is positioned laterally between the first sprocket-engaging portion and the second sprocket-engaging portion of each link. The coupler link includes a first joint pivotably coupled to the first link and a second joint pivotably coupled to the second link. The first joint permits pivoting movement of the first link about a plurality of axes, and the second joint permits pivoting movement of the second link about a plurality of axes.

Abstract: A rotatable cutting tool for use in impinging earth strata wherein the rotatable cutting tool comprises a cutting tool body and a hard tip affixed to the cutting tool body. The cutting tool body includes an axial forward end for receiving the hard tip and an axial rearward end, a head portion axially rearward of the axial forward end, a collar portion axially rearward of the head portion, and a shank portion axially rearward of the collar portion and axially forward of the axial rearward end. The head portion includes a plurality of elongated projections extending radially thereabout, each of the elongated projections including a first tapered side and a second tapered side. The first tapered side of each of the elongated projections adjoins the second tapered side of an adjacent elongated projection at a surface of the head portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting tooth for a trench wall cutter having a tongue-shaped tooth base for reception in a cutting wheel, whereby the tongue-shaped tooth base has a circumferentially surrounding holding groove, and at least one cutter which is arranged at the head-side of the tooth base. Provision is made for the cutting tooth with the tooth base and the cutter to be designed mirror-symmetrically to a plane of symmetry so that at least two opposite arranged cutters are present on the tooth base.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cutting tooth for a ground working implement, particularly for a cutting wheel of a trench wall cutter, with a dedendum for reception in a holder of the ground working implement and at least one main cutting element for working the soil located at the top on the dedendum. For widening the working cross-section of the main cutting element at least one further reaming element is provided at the top on the dedendum and which, compared with the main cutting element, has a different cutting edge design.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cutting tooth for a trencher chain. The tooth includes a base portion aligned along a first plane. The base portion includes structure for allowing the cutting tooth to be connected to the trencher chain. The tooth also includes a distal portion that is generally obliquely aligned with respect to the first plane. A curved transition is located between the distal portion and the base portion. The curved transition curves away from the first plane and at least partially forms a cupped portion that extends from a leading end to a trailing end of the cutting tooth. The tooth also includes a hardened tip positioned at a region of the leading end that is located farthest from the first plane. The leading edge includes more than one effective configuration.
