Abstract: A retaining spring clip includes an elongated body defining a longitudinal direction, a lateral direction that is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and a transverse direction that is perpendicular to the lateral direction and the longitudinal direction. A handle is disposed proximate to a first longitudinal end, an intermediate spring is disposed along the longitudinal direction, and a stepped groove is disposed proximate to a second longitudinal end. A triangular shaped void forms a backside of the intermediate spring, and a void filler is disposed in the triangular shaped void.

Abstract: A spring clip defines an axis of movement, and includes a handle portion disposed at a first end along the axis of movement, and a tool bit engaging portion disposed at a second end along the axis of movement. Also, an adapter board engaging portion is disposed at least partially between the handle portion, and the tool bit engaging portion along the axis of movement.

Abstract: A tool bit includes a working portion, and a shank portion defining a shank free end. The working portion includes a pair of side inserts, and a front insert.

Abstract: A wear member includes an attachment portion, and a wear portion extending from the attachment portion that defines a wear surface. The wear portion has a dispersible wear indicator that is disposed in the wear portion, and that is spaced a predetermined distance away from the wear surface.

Abstract: An adapter board defines an upper adapter board attachment portion, and a lower tool bit attachment portion. The upper adapter board attachment portion includes a first peak surface and a second peak surface, the first peak surface and the second peak surface forming a first valley between the first peak surface and the second peak surface.

Abstract: A work tool or a wear member includes a working portion or a wear portion, and a shank extending from the working portion or the wear portion, defining a longitudinal axis, and a first lock receiving groove that defines an axis of rotation that is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the shank.

Abstract: A cutter bit for a work tool on a machine includes a leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, a rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion extending axially rearwardly from the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, an annular ledge extending radially outwardly from a trailing edge of the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, a frustoconical-shaped body portion extending axially rearwardly from an outer circumferential edge of the annular ledge, a cylindrical collar portion extending axially rearwardly from a trailing edge of the frustoconical-shaped body portion, and a trailing end, cylindrical-shaped shank portion extending axially rearwardly from the cylindrical collar portion. The cutter bit may also include a plurality of circumferentially-spaced ribs projecting radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of at least one of the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, or the frustoconical-shaped body portion.

Abstract: A tool bit includes a shank portion defining a longitudinal axis, a free end, and a perimeter, at least one anti-rotation feature on the perimeter extending to the free end, and a cross-hole defining a cross-hole axis along which the cross-hole extends through the shank portion. The tool bit also including a working portion extending downwardly axially from the shank portion. The working portion includes a rear region, a front working region defining a width with a midpoint, a first side region and a second side region. The first side region and the second side region define an angle of extension measured in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The cross-hole axis pass through the width of the front working region when projected onto a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A wear member configured to be attached to a work implement includes a body defining a front working region, a rear mounting region, a first side region connecting the front working region to the rear mounting region, and a second side region connecting the front working region to the rear mounting region. The rear mounting region includes a plurality of mounting pads and defines at least once recess disposed at least partially on at least one of the plurality of the mounting pads.

Abstract: A tool bit includes a threaded portion, a shank, a shoulder, an anti-rotation segment and a working portion. The threaded portion may be centered about and extend longitudinally along a first axis. The shank may be centered about the first axis and extend longitudinally along the first axis. The shank may be disposed between the threaded portion and the shoulder. The anti-rotation segment may be disposed between the shoulder and the working portion of the tool bit. The working portion may be oriented to extend lengthwise away from the first axis and to extend lengthwise along another axis that is transverse to the first axis. The working portion may include a planar cutting surface that includes a working edge. The planar cutting surface may be oriented transverse to the first axis.
