Abstract: A pullyoke assembly for a scraper that includes a transverse torque tube having a central tubular member rigidly interconnecting the lower portions of a pair of drawbar members and being connected through each of the drawbar members to an outer tubular member which has a pair of outwardly flared ends, with one of the flared ends being rigidly secured to a pull-arm that extends rearwardly for pivotal connection with a scraper bowl, and the other of the flared ends being connected to one of the drawbar members in axial alignment with the central tubular member.

Abstract: A pivot construction for connecting a pair of relatively movable members that include a stepped diameter pin one end of which is fastened to one of the members and the other end of which is received in an end cap member that serves to preload a tapered roller bearing assembly mounted on the other of the members.
