Abstract: A frame assembly for a machine includes a main frame and a crossmember. The main frame includes first pair of rails and a second pair of rails laterally spaced from the first pair of rails. Each of the first pair of rails and the second pair of rails includes a first rail and a second rail vertically spaced from the first rail. The crossmember includes a first flange connected to both the first rail and second rail of the first pair of rails. The crossmember further includes a second flange connected to both the first rail and the second rail of the second pair of rails.

Abstract: A track-type tractor may comprise an operator cab, an engine, a frame supporting the operator cab and the engine, and an implement configured to move a load. The track-type tractor may further comprise at least one hydraulic lift cylinder configured to raise and lower the implement. The hydraulic lift cylinder may include a head end, a rod end, and a cylinder barrel. The cylinder barrel may be connected to the backside of the implement, and the rod end may be connected to the frame.

Abstract: A mounting assembly for mounting an engine of a machine is provided. The mounting assembly includes a bracket having a first portion. The first portion is adapted to attach to a frame of the machine. A second portion is coupled to the first portion. The second portion includes a first member having a first end. The first end includes a first annular opening. A second member includes a second end having a second annular opening. A third member is sandwiched between the first member and the second member. The third member having a third end and a first surface. The first surface is indicative of a curved surface. The first end, the second end, and the third end are being coplanar with each other. The bracket is manufactured as a single component, and is disposed on the frame of the machine at a predetermined angle to mount the engine.

Abstract: A track roller assembly for a track type machine is disclosed. The track roller assembly may have a yoke member with a first arm and a second arm spaced apart from the first arm, and an idler wheel rotatably disposed between the first and second arms of the yoke member. The track roller assembly may also have a frame configured to receive at least a portion of the yoke member, and at least one idler key configured to extend through an opening in the frame and engage a lengthwise slot in at least one of the first and second arms.

Abstract: An idler key for a track roller assembly is disclosed. The idler key may have a flange portion, and an elongated protrusion extending from the flange portion in a direction generally orthogonal to the flange portion. The idler key may also have at least one shoulder disposed between the flange portion and a base of the elongated protrusion. The at least one shoulder may have at least one machined surface configured to transfer load to a mating component.
