20130002010 | TRACK CHAIN CARTRIDGE HAVING THRUST BEARINGS - A cartridge for a track chain is disclosed. The cartridge includes a track pin. The cartridge also includes a rotatable bushing and a rotatable bearing located on the track pin. The cartridge further includes a first thrust bearing located on the track pin between the bearing and the bushing. The first thrust bearing is configured to contact the rotatable bearing and configured to contact the rotatable bushing. The first thrust bearing is configured to bear thrust loads and not radial loads. The cartridge may further include a collar located at an end of the track pin. The cartridge includes a second thrust bearing located between the bearing and the collar. The second thrust bearing is configured to contact the rotatable bearing and configured to contact the collar. The second thrust bearing is configured to bear thrust loads and not radial loads. | 01-03-2013 |

20100209180 | Pin Joint Assembly - A pin joint assembly including a pin defining a longitudinal axis and having an end portion, a bushing coaxial with the pin about the longitudinal axis and having an end portion, and a collar engaging the end portion of the pin and having an inner portion in proximal relation to the end portion of the bushing and an outer portion in distal relation to the end portion of the bushing. The end portion of the bushing, the inner portion of the collar, and the pin cooperate to define a channel. The pin joint assembly further includes a thrust ring coaxial with the pin about the longitudinal axis and residing in the channel in spaced-apart relation to the bushing. | 08-19-2010 |
20140105481 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING PART WEAR BASED ON DIGITAL IMAGE OF PART - Systems and methods are disclosed for determining part wear using a mobile device. One such exemplary method includes capturing, using the mobile device, at least one digital image of a wear part of a machine. The method further includes determining, by the mobile device and based on the at least one digital image, a degree of wear of the wear part. | 04-17-2014 |
20150066291 | WEAR MONITORING SYSTEM FOR UNDERCARRIAGE COMPONENT - A wear monitoring system for an undercarriage component includes an ultrasonic sensor disposed on the undercarriage component. The ultrasonic sensor is configured to emit ultrasonic waves to detect wear of the undercarriage component. The wear monitoring system further includes a wear monitoring device disposed in communication with the ultrasonic sensor. The wear monitoring device is located remote to the ultrasonic sensor. Further, the wear monitoring device is configured to generate an output indicative of wear of the undercarriage component. | 03-05-2015 |

20140132061 | IDLER GROUP AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLY - An idler group is disclosed for a mobile machine having a tracked undercarriage with an endless track. The idler group may include a retainer disposed on an axle and within an opening in an idler. The retainer may be configured to achieve an interference fit with the idler sufficient to hold the retainer within the opening of the idler during operation of the mobile machine. In another embodiment, a retaining ring may be disposed within a channel formed in the idler and may contact the retainer. In yet another embodiment, a swaged connection may be formed between the idler and the axle. | 05-15-2014 |
20140152086 | UNDERCARRIAGE TRACK LINK - A track link is disclosed for use with an undercarriage of a machine. The track link may have a body with a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The track link may also have a shoe face extending between the first and second surfaces at a side of the body, and a roller rail extending between the first and second surfaces at a side of the body opposite the shoe face, The body may have a substantially uniform hardness of about 45 to 55 Rkw C between the shoe face and the roller rail. | 06-05-2014 |
