Abstract: A material penetrating tool includes a shaft portion defining a central axis, and an enlarged cutting portion extending downwardly axially from the shaft portion. The enlarged cutting portion includes a rearward blunt surface, a front cutting surface, a first side surface and a second side surface, and the first side surface and the second side surface define an angle of extension measured in a plane perpendicular to the central axis, forming a wider forward cutting surface than the rearward blunt surface in a plane perpendicular to the central axis.

Abstract: A cutting edge assembly is disclosed. The cutting edge assembly may include an attachment element configured to be attached to a work tool of a machine, wherein the attachment element is formed from a first metal alloy, and wherein the attachment element includes a plurality of retention structures that extend from an attachment end of the attachment element toward a cutting edge end of the attachment element. The cutting edge assembly may include a wear element configured to form a cutting edge of the work tool, wherein the wear element is formed from a second metal alloy that is different from the first metal alloy, and wherein the wear element is cast over the plurality of retention structures to bond the wear element to the attachment element.

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 blade assembly includes an adapter board including a lower tool bit attachment portion, terminating in a lower adapter board free end, the lower adapter board free end defining a bottom surface defining a plurality of shank receiving bores. A plurality of bushings are disposed in a corresponding one of the plurality of shank receiving bores.

Abstract: A tool bit is disclosed. The tool bit may comprise 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.

Abstract: A tool bit comprises a shank portion defining a longitudinal axis, and a working portion extending downwardly axially from the shank portion. The working portion includes a rear region, a front working region, a first side region and a second side region, and the first side region and the second side region define an angle of extension measured in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, forming a wider front working region than the rear region in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A blade assembly comprises a moldboard defining an upper moldboard free end and a lower moldboard free end, the lower moldboard free end defining a lower curved mounting surface, and an adapter board defining an upper adapter board attachment portion, and a lower tool bit attachment portion. The upper adapter board attachment portion may include a first peak surface and a second peak surface, the first peak surface and the second peak surface forming a first valley therebetween and being configured to contact the lower curved mounting surface.

Abstract: A tool bit is disclosed. The tool bit includes a working portion at a distal end of the tool bit, a threaded portion at a proximal end of the tool bit, a shank extending along a longitudinal axis of the tool bit between the working portion and the threaded portion, and an anti-rotation receiving hole located on the threaded portion. The anti-rotation receiving hole extends through the threaded portion transverse to the longitudinal axis. The threaded portion of the tool bit is configured to engage with threads of a nut, and the anti-rotation receiving hole is configured to receive a pin inserted through the nut.

Abstract: An adapter board for use with a blade assembly includes a lower tool bit attachment portion, terminating in a lower adapter board free end, the lower adapter board free end defining a bottom surface defining a plurality of shank receiving bores and a plurality of pry slots. Each one of the plurality of pry slots is disposed adjacent at least one of the plurality of shank receiving bores.

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 wear member includes a rear mounting region having a shelf forming a bottom surface and a rear surface or a plurality of mounting pads with at least one recess disposed at least partially on at least one of the plurality of the mounting pads.
