Patent ID: 8721185

Claim:
A support for assembling agricultural tilting bearings comprising: a substantially planar upper portion defining a pair of elongated openings, each elongated opening formed by the merger of at least two circular openings of different diameters and extending entirely through the upper portion of the support; and a first axis, wherein said circular openings have centers disposed on the first axis; opposing fastening sides, each fastening side projecting from one of two opposing ends of the upper portion and terminating at respective lower ends, wherein a pair of holes is defined in each lower end of each fastening side; a second axis, perpendicular to the first axis; wherein the upper portion defines a top of a cavity and entirely extends across the cavity in both a first direction, parallel to the first axis, and a second direction, parallel to the second axis; the opposing fastening sides define two opposing sides of the cavity; wherein the pair of elongated openings oppose one another and are equidistant from respective opposing ends of the upper portion; wherein each lower end of each fastening side defines a U-shaped channel; wherein the holes in each lower end are concentric and are configured to receive a fastening mechanism; wherein one of the holes in each lower end is counterbored; wherein an aperture is defined in each fastening side between the lower ends of each fastening side and the upper portion of the support, such that the apertures are aligned with one another along the first direction and extend through the respective fastening sides.
