Abstract: A wheel ornamentation assembly is provided for attachment to a wheel secured to a wheel hub with a plurality of lug nuts. The wheel ornamentation assembly includes a wheel ornamentation body having an outboard surface and an inboard surface. The wheel ornamentation assembly also includes a first annular wall extending axially from the inboard surface. The wheel ornamentation assembly includes a plurality of first retention legs extending axially from the first annular wall. The wheel ornamentation assembly also includes a second annular wall extending axially from the inboard surface. The second annular wall is spaced radially from the first annular wall. The wheel ornamentation assembly further includes a plurality of second retention legs extending axially from the second annular wall. The first annular wall and the second annular wall of the wheel ornamentation assembly cooperate to define a plurality of lug cavities adapted to receive a lug nut.
Abstract: A travel driving apparatus for a track-type earthmoving machine is provided which can reduce abrasion wear of a sprocket and a bushing and which enables easy replacement of worn members. A contact member is detachably mounted to an opposing surface of a track shoe to a sprocket, and a tooth top portion of the sprocket is brought into contact with the contact member, thereby securing a gap between a bushing of a track chain and a tooth bottom portion of the sprocket. The tooth top portion of the sprocket and a surface portion of the contact member have surface portions which are brought into contact with each other at a time when the sprocket rotates.
Abstract: An advertisement stand includes a transparent hollow member mounted on a hollow base, and confining a water-tight inner space filled with a liquid body. The hollow member has a surrounding wall adapted to be printed with an advertisement thereon. An air pump is mounted in the base and is operable so as to supply fine air bubbles into the liquid body via a diffuser set which is mounted on a bottom end of the hollow member. A lamp set is mounted on the base and is disposed beneath the hollow member. The lamp set is operable so as to radiate light that extends through the bottom end of the hollow member. The lamp set includes a first lamp unit disposed adjacent to the surrounding wall, and a second lamp unit surrounded by the first lamp unit.
Abstract: Low ground pressure tire chains for skid-steer loaders and other construction machinery. A track (12) for parallel drive wheeled vehicles (10) having spaced apart pairs of wheels (14,16) assembled with a plurality of base units (24) pivotally interconnected in series by opposing links (26), each base unit comprising a pair of opposing side supports (32) with a wedge portion (36) extending towards the opposing side support to wedgingly receive a portion of a tire in a gap between the opposing side support's. A pair of spaced-apart transverse cross members (34) extending between the side supports and define cavities (50) between a leading edge and the wedge portion for receiving fasteners to secure a bottom plate (52) to the base unit. The assembled track mounts around the tires of the loader to provide traction and floatation of the loader during operation in mud or sand.
