Abstract: A counterweight assembly for a work machine includes a structure, support studs, a first side wall, and a second side wall. The structure is coupled to a frame of the work machine and defines through holes, a first side end, and a second side end. The support studs are coupled to the frame and correspondingly received into the through holes to support the structure against the frame. The first side wall extends from the first side end and defines a first eyelet. The second side wall extends from the second side end and defines a second eyelet. A work machine guard rail is received between the first side wall and second side wall. One or more of the first eyelet and the second eyelet receive a lifting assembly for lifting the work machine, and the support studs transfer a lifting force from the counterweight assembly to the frame.

Abstract: A construction vehicle includes a chassis having a front end and a rear end. The construction vehicle also includes an operator cabin supported by the chassis and a hood proximate to the rear end of the chassis. The construction vehicle further includes a hood structure for supporting the hood. The hood structure includes a first frame member coupled to the chassis proximate to the rear end and a second frame member disposed distal to the rear end and proximal to the operator cabin. The second frame member is coupled to the chassis by a mounting assembly. The mounting assembly includes a plate member connected to the second frame member. The mounting assembly also includes a first mounting device connecting a first end of the plate member to the chassis. The mounting assembly further includes a second mounting device connecting a second end of the plate member to the chassis.

Abstract: A construction vehicle includes a vehicle body defining a first end and a second end. A construction vehicle also includes a guard assembly disposed proximate to the second end of the vehicle body. A construction vehicle includes a mounting assembly removably coupling the guard assembly with the vehicle body. Further, the mounting assembly includes a first mounting structure including a plurality of side plates defining a cavity and a first mounting plate coupled with the plurality of side plates. The mounting assembly also includes a second mounting structure removably coupled with the first mounting structure, the second mounting structure including a second mounting plate and a third mounting plate angularly disposed relative to the second mounting plate. Moreover, the guard assembly is in alignment with the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate for coupling the guard assembly with the mounting assembly.

Abstract: A guard assembly for a machine is provided. The guard assembly includes a guard structure and a frame. The frame is attachable to the machine at a machine component. The guard structure is pivotably connected to the frame and movable between a first position and a second position. The frame further includes a magnet structure to releasably couple the frame to the machine component. Furthermore, the frame includes a cap being secured to the magnet structure. The cap includes a skin having at least one side extending beyond the magnet structure and contacting at least a portion of the machine component.

Abstract: A hinge assembly including a flat plate and a bent plate is provided. The flat plate includes a first slot extending at least partially along a width of the flat plate and disposed substantially perpendicular with respect to a central axis of the flat plate. The bent plate includes a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion. The second portion includes a second slot extending at least partially along a width of the bent plate and disposed substantially perpendicular with respect to a central axis of the bent plate. The second slot is adapted to interconnect with respect to the first slot to pivotally move the hinge assembly between an open position and a close position. In the open position, the first portion of the bent plate is adapted to contact a first half section on a first side of the flat plate.

Abstract: A valve guard for a valve assembly associated with a machine includes a first portion and a second portion disposed adjacent to the first portion. Each of the first and second portions includes a plurality of tabs. Further, at least one tab of the plurality of tabs is adapted to be removed from the first and second portions based on a configuration of the valve assembly. The removal of the at least one tab from the first and second portions provides at least one passage for connecting at least one fluid line with the valve assembly.
