Patent number: 10457092Abstract: A wheel weight assembly for a vehicle that has a wheel hub. The wheel weight assembly includes a wheel weight and a mounting assembly. The wheel weight includes a mounting aperture that defines a fixed axis. The mounting assembly is positioned in the mounting apertures and pivots relative thereto. The mounting assembly includes a hook and a rotator. The hook is positioned laterally inboard of the wheel hub, while the rotator is positioned laterally outboard of the wheel weight and is coupled to the hook. The rotator is configured to rotate the hook from a first position to a second position. In the first position, the hook not engaged with the wheel hub, but in the second position, the hook is engaged with the wheel hub.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2017Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: DEERE & COMPANY ONE JOHN DEERE PLACEInventors: Digvijay Bhosale, Benjamin J.

Patent number: 9084387Abstract: A drawbar support assembly includes a rail member attached to a hitch frame, a slider member and a drawbar support. The slider member is slidable in the rail member. The drawbar support has rollers which rollingly engage the slider member so that the drawbar is swingable laterally. The rail member includes a forwardly facing curved slot which slidably receives the tabs which project from the slider member. A spring unit is coupled between the rail member and the slider member and operates to urge the slider member to a central position relative to the rail member.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2013Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Assignee: DEERE & COMPANYInventors: Digvijay Bhosale, Edwin R.
