BACK-DRAG BUCKET ACCESSORY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240026634 titled 'BACK-DRAG BUCKET ACCESSORY
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a bucket for a loader that has a main body and a pair of swing plates. These swing plates are pivotably connected to the main body and create an exterior collection space for gathering material from the ground surface when the bucket is used in a back-dragging mode. The swing plates can be moved between a first position and a second position. In the first position, the lower edge of the swing plate is raised above the outer surface of the bottom wall. In the second position, the swing plate protrudes past the outer surface of the bottom wall, partially enclosing the exterior collection space when back-dragging.
- The bucket for a loader has swing plates that can be pivoted to create an exterior collection space.
- The swing plates have two positions - a raised position and a protruding position.
- In the raised position, the swing plates do not enclose the exterior collection space.
- In the protruding position, the swing plates partially enclose the exterior collection space.
- The bucket is designed for back-dragging mode, allowing material to be gathered from the ground surface.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Construction and excavation projects
- Landscaping and gardening tasks
- Agriculture and farming operations
- Mining and material handling industries
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficiently collecting material from the ground surface
- Facilitating back-dragging operations
- Enhancing the functionality of loader buckets
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased productivity and efficiency in material gathering
- Versatility in different applications and industries
- Improved control and maneuverability during back-dragging operations
Original Abstract Submitted
a bucket for a loader includes a main body and a pair of swing plates pivotably coupled to the main body for defining an exterior collection space for gathering material from the ground surface when operating the bucket in a back-dragging mode. each swing plate is pivotable relative to the main body between a first position and a second position. when in the first position, the swing plate lower edge is raised above an outer surface of the bottom wall. when in the second position, the swing plate protrudes past the outer surface of the bottom wall, with inwardly directed faces of the swing plates cooperating with an outer surface of a bottom wall of the main body to partially enclose an exterior collection space when back-dragging.
