Abstract:
Disclosed embodiments include power machines and related structures of lift arms, implement carriers, follower links, and driver links which improve manufacturability, reduce component failures, and improve power machine design and functionality. In some embodiments, lift arm structures include cast lower lift arm portions. The cast lower lift arm portions include contoured upper ends which are sleeved onto contoured lower ends of upper lift arm portions to control stress points and to reduce stresses on welds. The follower link structures can include follower links which are configured to be positioned at least partially outside of the lift arm structure to improve rear visibility. The driver link structures can be configured to be laterally overlapping with innermost surfaces on the lift cylinder, but configured such that as the lift arm is raised the laterally overlapping portions are moved above the innermost surfaces of the lift cylinder.

Claim (Index 5):
The lift arm structure of  claim 4 , wherein the contoured bottom interface of each of the first and second upper lift arm sections includes a top extending member, a bottom extending member, and an inlet section positioned between and separating the top extending member and the bottom extending member, and wherein the contoured top interface of each of the first and second lower lift arm castings comprises a protruding section configured to be positioned in the inlet section of the corresponding one of the first and second upper lift arm section between the top extending member and the bottom extending member.
