  • Boom breakaway hinge assembly with damper system
    Patent number: 11700845
    Abstract: A breakaway hinge assembly includes a first bracket coupled to a boom section, a second bracket coupled to a breakaway boom section, and a damper system. The damper system includes a first damper assembly coupled to a stop bracket of the first bracket and a second damper assembly coupled to an upper bracket arm of the first bracket. Each damper assembly includes a housing, at least one rubber element disposed within the housing, a plunger having a first end in contact with the at least one rubber element, and a stop coupled to a second end of the plunger. The first and second brackets are pivotably coupled to each other so that the breakaway boom section pivots between a first position and a second position. The damper system is configured to prevent over-pivoting and reduce impact load of the breakaway boom section when pivoting to the first and second positions.
