Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments, aspects and features a multifunction, intelligent telescoping boom system. The system may comprise a hydraulic circuit with a continuous, circulating flow through a circuit that includes a hydraulic pump and a configurable valve bank. Valves in the valve bank may be designated to given components of any of a multitude of implement attachments. In this way, the continuous flow of hydraulic fluid through the valve bank may be distributed, via the valves, to the hydraulic components of implements. Hydraulic flow in excess of the demand created by the hydraulic components moves on through the valve bank and returns to the pump to continue the circulation. Also returning to the pump from the valve bank is any hydraulic fluid returning to the valve bank from the hydraulic components.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments, aspects and features an oscillating track system that includes an oscillating track lock subsystem. The oscillating track system may include a track operable to rotate around a housing structure that is configured to receive an axle. While in operation, i.e. while the track is being rotated around the housing, the oscillating track system may be able to oscillate about the axle and, in doing so, incline or decline to accommodate undulating terrain. Advantageously, when stopped, the degree to which the oscillating track system has oscillated around the axle may be locked in place via an oscillating track lock subsystem comprised within the oscillating track system, thereby providing stability to the heavy equipment that includes the oscillating track system.

Abstract: Vehicles, systems and methods for providing articulating two section vehicles with tracks, and a front body attached superstructure with telescopic forklift, for use on all terrain condition applications. The vehicle can include front and rear track assemblies that can tilt up and down while traveling over different ground surfaces. Each of the track assemblies can have rotatable articulating/oscillating track wheels which can traverse different contoured surfaces. The right and left tracks on both the front and rear track assemblies can separately extend outward and inward from underneath the vehicles to add stability to the vehicles. The cab can be raised and lowered to add greater visibility for the operator. Hydraulics can be used for raising and lowering the extendable boom and operator cab, as well as controlling the body articulating hinge, the articulating tracks and the tilting controls for the front track assembly.

Abstract: An all-terrain telehandler includes a pair of front tracks. Each front track may be coupled to a front bracket by an arm that telescopes relative to the front bracket. A superstructure may be coupled to the front bracket where the superstructure supports a first telescoping boom. A pair of rear tracks may be coupled to a rear body. The rear body may be coupled to the front superstructure. A maximum extension position for the first telescoping boom and a length generally corresponding to a length of the superstructure may define a ratio of approximately 4.00:1.00, whereby the all-terrain telehandler is substantially stable when moving loads supported by the first telescoping boom. A second telescoping boom may support a cab. With the second boom, the cab may be lowered beneath a top section of one of the front tracks for facilitating an operator loading sequence.
