Title: Coupling assemblies with enhanced take up
Inventor: BRISCOE TERRY L
IPC: E02F9/28
Filed: 2011-04-15
Granted: 2015-12-10
Abstract: Coupling assemblies for releasably holding separable parts together, and in particular for releasably securing a wear member to a support structure in excavating equipment are formed so as to provide increased take up to ensure a tight fit of the wear member on the support structure even if considerable deviation between the parts exists due to wearing, manufacturing variations or the like. The coupling assemblies are suitable for securing points, adapters, shrouds, or other replaceable component to various excavating equipment. The components of the coupling assembly include a wedge and a spool that pivots about a fulcrum when the wedge is driven into assembly for increased take up capabilities. The spool is rotatably engaged around a fulcrum of the support structure and has a bearing portion that bears against and moves the wear member to be secured to thereby take up any gaps between the engaging surfaces of these members. A movable insert may be provided to improve the cooperation between the wedge and the spool to further increase the available take up.

Title: Method for applying protective covering to pipes and tubes
Inventor: BRUMFIELD RUSSELL O
IPC: B23K11/08
Filed: 2011-06-01
Granted: 2016-01-07
Abstract: The manufacture of clad tubes (30) is described. Tube (10) intended to line the walls of a combustion chamber is made of a high strength material to contain the high-pressure steam created. However, these tubes (10) are typically not corrosion/erosion resistant. Manufacture of tubes (10) with both high strength and high resistance to corrosion/erosion would be prohibitively expensive. Therefore, tubes (10) are covered with a non-corrosive material to protect them. This is done by surface welding a strip (20) of high alloy material to the outer surface (12) of the tubes (10). It is preferable to use electric high frequency resistance welding to surface weld the strip (20) onto tube (10). The strips (20) are preferably attached with little melting and metal dilution allowing the strip 20 to keep its corrosion/erosion resistance properties.
