  • Patent number: 8851826
    Abstract: A bottom surface part of a bucket includes first and second curved surface parts. The second curved surface part is positioned closer to a back surface part than the first curved surface part. A second curvature radius of the second curved surface part is shorter than a first curvature radius of the first curved surface part. The center of the first curvature radius is positioned to the outside of a main bucket body when viewed from the side. In a horizontal state, the first curved surface part is arranged along or above a reference curved surface when viewed from the side. A connecting part between the first curved surface part and the second curved surface part is positioned more towards a lip part than the portion of the bottom surface part that is positioned lowest in the bottom surface part in the horizontal state when viewed from the side.

  • Patent number: 8495826
    Abstract: A work implement includes a ground engaging tool with a first through-hole, an adapter with a second through-hole, a retaining pin, a metal bushing and a metal retainer. The retaining pin is inserted into the first and second through-holes disposed in a state in which the ground engaging tool is in contact with the adapter. The retaining pin is inserted in an inside of an cylindrical member of the bushing, which is disposed at an end portion of the retaining pin inside the first through-hole. The metal retainer prevents the bushing from coming loose from the retaining pin by sandwiching the bushing between the metal retainer and the adapter at the end of the retaining pin. The bushing is disposed in a state that allows movement in an axial direction of the retaining pin between the adapter and the retainer on an outer peripheral face of the retaining pin.

  • Publication number: 20090130332
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for drying a coating film (4a) on an exterior panel of a box-shaped workpiece (4), wherein radiant rays, and warm air having a temperature less than a hardening temperature of the coating film (4a), are supplied simultaneously and directly to the coating film (4a). The method and apparatus of the present invention can dry the coating film (4a) on the exterior panel of the workpiece (4) within a relatively short period of time, without causing a negative effect on a surface quality of the coating film (4a).
