Pothole Protection Mechanism
US Patent:
2002018, Dec 12, 2002
Filed:
Jun 8, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/876069
Inventors:
Ignacy Puszkiewicz - Smithsburg MD, US

Assignee:
JLG Industries, Inc.
International Classification:
B60R021/00, B60S009/00
US Classification:
280/755000, 280/764100
Abstract:
A pothole protection mechanism for a lift machine includes a frame that is securable to the lift machine, a pothole protection bar movably coupled with the frame via a support linkage, and an actuator coupled between the frame and the pothole protection bar. The actuator is sized for a force sufficient only to lift the pothole protection bar. The support linkage includes a coupling bar driven by the actuator that is connected between two pivot joints secured between the frame and the pothole protection bar. In the extended or deployed position, the pivot joints are pivoted to an over-center position and the coupling bar is abutted against a stop. As such, when a vehicle to which the pothole protection mechanism is attached falls into a pothole or off a curb or the like, the weight of the machine is supported by the pothole protection bar and support linkage and not by the actuator. In preferred forms, the pothole protection mechanism is without a mechanical linkage between platform lift and pothole protection mechanisms.
Pothole Protection Mechanism
US Patent:
7281736, Oct 16, 2007
Filed:
Jan 6, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/751540

Assignee:
JLG Industries, Inc. - McConnellsburg PA
International Classification:
B66B 5/00, E06C 1/00
US Classification:
280755, 2807631, 2807641, 182 696, 182 631, 182141, 187243
Abstract:
A pothole protection mechanism provides additional support for the vehicle in the event a wheel is driven into a hole while the platform is elevated. The mechanism includes an extendible and retractable pothole protection bar. A mechanism serves to actuate the pothole protection mechanism based on a position of the vehicle lifting section. The construction of the mechanism serves to prevent a crushing hazard while deploying the bar and tolerates fixed objects on the ground while raising the bar.
Longitudinal Stability Monitoring System
US Patent:
2013023, Sep 12, 2013
Filed:
Nov 14, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/884784
Inventors:
Steven Aulton - Loughborough, GB

Assignee:
JLG Industries, Inc. - Hagerstown MD
International Classification:
B66F 9/20
US Classification:
701 50
Abstract:
A longitudinal stability monitoring system controls a boom lift down speed for a lift vehicle. The lift vehicle includes a vehicle chassis supported on front and rear wheels respectively coupled with a front axle and a rear axle, and a boom pivotally coupled to the lift vehicle. The system monitors a vertical load on the rear axle and manages boom lift down speed based on the vertical load. Additionally, the system may manage the boom lift down speed based on both the vertical load on the rear axle and an anticipated operator demand according to a signal from an operator input device.
