Abstract: A transportation device includes a first transporter, a second transporter movable between a contact position and a separate position toward and away from the first transporter to hold a to-be-transported object between the second transporter and the first transporter in the contact position, and a transportation unit that transports the to-be-transported object to a nip area where the first transporter and the second transporter hold the to-be-transported object therebetween while the second transporter is located in the separate position. The second transporter moves from the separate position to the contact position to hold the to-be-transported object transported to the nip area by the transportation unit between the second transporter and the first transporter to transport the to-be-transported object.

Abstract: A transport device includes: a first transport body; a second transport body that is movable between a contact position and a separate position with respect to the first transport body and that nips a transported material with the first transport body at the contact position; and a transport section that includes a holder to hold a leading end portion of the transported material and that transports the transported material toward a nip region where the first transport body and the second transport body nip the transported material in a state in which the second transport body is located at the separate position. After holding of the leading end portion by the holder for the transported material transported by the transport section has been released, the second transport body nips the transported material with the first transport body and transports the transported material.

Abstract: A work arm of a work machine includes a box-shaped structure including multiple plate members, a pair of bosses attached to opposing plate members, and a cylindrical boss coupling member coupling the pair of bosses together. Each boss includes a boss body section having a pin insertion hole through which a coupling pin is inserted and extending in an arrangement direction of the plate members, and a flange section extending outward from an outer circumferential portion of the boss body section and joined to a corresponding one of the plate members via a first weld. The boss body section includes a cylindrical outer body portion on an outer surface side of the box-shaped structure and a cylindrical inner body portion on an inner surface side of the box-shaped structure. The boss coupling member is joined, at both axial ends thereof, to respective ends of the inner body portions via second welds.

Abstract: An arm of a hydraulic excavator is formed as a box-shaped structural body surrounded by left and right side plates, an upper plate, a lower plate, and a thick rear plate. An upper end of the thick rear plate is protruded upward from an outer surface of the upper plate. Upper ends of a pair of arm cylinder brackets joined to an outer surface of the thick rear plate are arranged higher than the outer surface of the rear thick upper plate and lower than the upper end of the thick rear plate. As a result, in each of the arm cylinder brackets, a joint area with the thick rear plate can be ensured large, and joint strength can be improved.

Abstract: An arm of a hydraulic excavator is formed as a box-shaped structural body surrounded by left and right side plates, an upper plate joined to each of the upper end sides of each side plate, a lower plate joined to each of the lower end sides of each side plate, and a thick rear plate joined to each of the rear end sides of each side plate and the upper plate. The side plates are formed by joining a rear thick side plate and a front thin side plate. The upper plate is formed by joining two members, that is, a rear thick upper plate and a front thin upper plate, and the lower plate is formed by joining two members, that is, a rear thick lower plate and a front thin lower plate.

Abstract: In an arm for a construction machine formed as a box-shaped structural body by left and right side plates, an upper plate, a lower plate, and a rear plate, a left rear thick side plate constituting the left side plate, a right rear thick side plate constituting the right side plate, a rear thick upper plate constituting the upper plate, and a rear thick lower plate constituting the lower plate are formed by using a soft steel material having a large plate thickness. A left front thin side plate constituting the left side plate, a right front thin side plate constituting the right side plate, a front thin upper plate constituting the upper plate, and a front thin lower plate constituting the lower plate are formed by using a high tensile steel material having a small plate thickness. As a result, the weight of the entire arm can be reduced.

Abstract: In left and right web plates (12) of a boom (11), first to fifth web materials (12A to 12E) are joined at edge portions in a front-rear direction along welding lines (13A to 13D). In an upper flange plate (14), a rear upper flange material (14A), a front upper flange material (14B), and a middle upper flange material (14C) are joined at edge portions in a front-rear direction along welding lines (15A, 15B). Ina lower flange plate (16), first to sixth lower flange materials (16A to 16F) are joined at edge portions in a front-rear direction along welding lines (17A to 17E). The welding lines (13A to 13D) of the left and right web plates (12) are disposed in positions that are different from those of the welding lines (15A, 15B) of the upper flange plate (14) and the welding lines (17A to 17E) of the lower flange plate (16) in a front-rear direction.
