  • Patent number: 8828556
    Abstract: Disclosed is a pipe made of an iron-base material, having a corrosion prevention layer formed on the surface thereof. The corrosion prevention layer includes a Zn—Sn sprayed coating including Sn in a content of more than 1% by mass and less than 50% by mass and the balance composed of Zn. Alternatively, the corrosion prevention layer includes a Zn—Sn—Mg sprayed coating including Sn in a content of more than 1% by mass and less than 50% by mass, Mg in a content of more than 0.01% by mass and less than 5% by mass and the balance composed of Zn. Preferably, the sprayed coating of the corrosion prevention layer includes at least any one of Ti, Co, Ni and P, and the content of each of these elements is more than 0.001% by mass and less than 3% by mass.

  • Patent number: 6637136
    Abstract: A backhoe unit detachably attached to a backhoe mounting frame disposed on a tractor body rearwardly of a driver's seat. The backhoe unit includes a base having engaging portions for connection to the backhoe mounting frame, a driver's footrest and a control column disposed on the base, a vertical swing axis supported by the base, a boom bracket supported to be swingable about the vertical swing axis, and a boom assembly attached to the boom bracket. The boom bracket is swung horizontally by a single swing cylinder having one end thereof connected to the base through a first cylinder connecting portion, and the other end connected to the boom bracket through a second cylinder connecting portion. The swing cylinder is disposed in a lateral position of the base.
