Abstract:
1. A wear assembly comprising: a first wear member including a socket; a second wear member including a nose portion, the wear members arranged in an assembled condition where the nose portion of the second wear member is received within the socket of the first wear member; and a lock mounted to the second wear member, the lock adjustable between an extended configuration and a retracted configuration, the lock comprising at least one locking element that projects outwardly from the second wear member in the extended configuration of the lock and is operative to be displaced inwardly from the extended configuration towards the second wear member to adopt the retracted configuration of the lock; wherein, with the first and second wear members in the assembled condition, movement of the at least one locking element from the extended configuration towards the retracted configuration causes the second wear member to be locked to the first wear member in the assembled condition, and wherein the first wear member has an inner surface that defines said socket, and at least one slot that extends along said inner surface and configured to provide clearance for the at least one locking element to allow the second wear member to move relative to the first wear member into the assembled condition whilst the lock is in its extended configuration.
