Abstract: An idler wheel may include an annular rim portion, an annular hub portion configured to be positioned about an axle, a webbing extending from an outer surface of the hub portion to an inner surface of the rim portion, the webbing including a first radius portion converging with the inner surface of the rim portion, a second radius portion converging with the outer surface of the hub portion, a taper transition point, and a first tapered portion between the first radius portion and the taper transition point. The idler wheel may further include a second tapered portion between the second radius portion and the taper transition point.

Abstract: An idler and method of manufacturing is disclosed. The idler may comprise a web member, a rim and a plurality of flanges. The web member may include a body. The body may include a front side, a back side and an aperture extending therethrough, wherein the web member is centered about the aperture and has an outer circumference. The rim may be oriented transverse to the web member and disposed on the outer circumference. The plurality of flanges may be spaced apart in a zig-zag disposition on the rim, each flange projecting radially outward from the rim and oriented to extend longitudinally parallel to the outer rim circumference.

Abstract: An idler for a tracked machine may include a unitary hub and a substantially unitary disk-shaped web centered on the hub and extending radially outward from the hub to an outer cylindrical edge. The idler may also include an outer rim arranged proximate the outer cylindrical edge and extending laterally relative to the disk-shaped web. The outer rim may include a raised portion flanked by a pair of lower ledges, the raised portion and the pair of lower ledges having a cross-sectional profile configured for engagement by a link assembly of a track system.

Abstract: A track roller shaft comprises a body including a revolved surface defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction disposed about the axis of rotation. The body also defines a proximate axial end disposed along the axis of rotation, a radially extending hole that is disposed axially adjacent to the proximate axial end, and a guide member receiving pocket disposed axially farther away from the proximate axial end than the radially extending hole.

Abstract: An idler wheel includes a hub, an outer rim, and a pair of side plates that form an interior cavity extending radially between the outer rim (110) and the hub, and axially between the pair of side plates. The first side plate defines a maximum side plate axial thickness disposed radially next to the hub in a cross-sectional plane containing a radial direction, and an axis of rotation, as well as a minimum side plate thickness disposed radially next to the outer rim. A ratio of the maximum thickness to the minimum thickness ranges from 1.325 to 1.900.

Abstract: A track roller rim is disclosed. The track roller rim may include an outer member including an annular configuration defining an axis of rotation, a radial direction, and a circumferential direction disposed about the axis of rotation, where the outer member has an inner circumference, an outer circumference, a first axial end disposed along the axis of rotation, and a second axial end disposed along the axis of rotation. The track roller rim may include a first annular inner member, where the first annular inner member is interference fit within the inner circumference of the outer member at the first axial end. The track roller rim may include a second annular inner member, where the second annular inner member is interference fit within the inner circumference of the outer member at the second axial end.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a corner adapter for attaching a ground engaging tooth to an implement bucket. The corner adapter includes a nose portion, a bottom strap and a top strap. The nose portion and the bottom strap are aligned along substantially common longitudinal axes, the top strap is aligned along a longitudinal axis that defines an offset angle. A cutout portion and gusset are provided in the top strap to permit the corner adapter to engage the side wall.

Abstract: A tip assembly has a replaceable wear member mounted to an adapter carried on the cutting edge of an implement of an earth-working machine. The adapter has an external surface formed to engage a complementary internal cavity of the wear member and includes a pair of transversely spaced sides at least one of the transversely spaced sides include a guide arrangement and a retainer pocket positioned therein. The wear member has a body with an exterior ground-engaging surface, a mounting end, an adapter receiving cavity and at least one ear extending from the mounting end. The at least one ear is configured to be received by the guide arrangement when the wear member is positioned on the adapter.
