Patent number: 6991401Abstract: Landfill compactor vehicles having wheels equipped with wedge shaped cleats tend to accumulate about the vehicle's axle trash such as cable, wire, rope and the like debris requiring daily removal to permit unobstructed axle rotation. The wheel construction of this invention provides compaction cleats of two types, contour and traction, in rows positioned across the width of the wheel with substantially no cleat free zone adjacent the wheel edges but with a row of contour teeth arranged adjacent the wheel's inner edge thus affording trash exclusion properties to the compactor wheel.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2005Date of Patent: January 31, 2006Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventor: James Oliver Caron

Patent number: 6682262Abstract: A companion roller for mounting on a driven compaction vehicle is equipped with both destructive and tractive, highly wear resistant cleat assemblies. The later includes readily removable wear caps with bulbous corner portions and broad wear faces. Anti twist projections and complementary recesses at the interface of the wear caps and support bases reduce relative movement between the parts under severe working forces.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventors: James O. Caron, Scott F. P. Caron

Patent number: 5795097Abstract: A wheel for a powered vehicle operating along a hard brittle surface is equipped with cleats 21 having non-metallic wear tips 31 mounted upon a metallic base 36 welded to the wheel circumference 10. The material forming the wear tips 31 has density and hardness insufficient to chip or erode the brittle work surface but of sufficient toughness for demolition of solid wastes. An elongate bracket in a medial portion 26 of the wear tip and base have complimentary portions for attachment of tip to base in a twist resisting connection. An adhesive bond unites the tip and base in one embodiment, FIGS. 4-7, and mechanical couplings unite the parts in others, FIGS. 7-13. Certain embodiments, FIGS. 8-13, have provisions for readily releasable locking of the parts for field replacement of worn cleats.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1997Date of Patent: August 18, 1998Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventors: James O. Caron, Scott F. P. Caron

Patent number: 4991662Abstract: A land fill spreader blade assembly characterized by a double "U" shape in plan for directing land fill materials into the demolition wheels or tracks carried by and supporting a tractor carrying the blade.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 1989Date of Patent: February 12, 1991Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventors: James O. Caron, Kenneth H. Pratt

Patent number: 4750792Abstract: A demolition and compaction track shoe and assembly for a crawler vehicle track includes a central opening and diagonally oriented demolition blades protruding sufficiently outwardly to be primarily useful in demolishing large rocks, home appliances, and similar materials of a type generally encountered in a land fill site. The diagonally oriented demolition blades cooperate with transversely disposed grouser blades to obtain a smoother riding, stable, self-cleaning track. The grouser blades extend only part way across the track shoe in a manner leaving a lateral spacing or gap between the adjacent ends of the grousers so as to provide a scissoring action on debris captured between adjacent grousers of adjacent track shoes in the track.Type: GrantFiled: July 17, 1986Date of Patent: June 14, 1988Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventors: James O. Caron, Kenneth H. Pratt

Patent number: 4066375Abstract: A replacement cap for use on the tip of a compaction wheel foot. The cap includes a pair of half-caps weldable together on the end of the tip. The half-caps are generally rectangular and are formed with inner end portions having facets which abut to form V-shaped weld pockets. The half-caps are shaped so as to snugly fit on tips having varied wear patterns. Replacement time, weld material and replacement costs are thereby reduced.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 1977Date of Patent: January 3, 1978Assignee: Caron Compactor CompanyInventors: James O. Caron, Fred J. Caron, Norman F. Cady
