US Patent:

6581306, Jun 24, 2003
Filed:

Jan 28, 2002
Appl. No.:

10/058918
Inventors:

James Anthony DiClementi - Mount Prospect IL 60056
Robert Daniel DiClementi - Northbrook IL 60062
Linda Rose DiClementi - Arlington Heights IL 60004
International Classification:

E01H 504
US Classification:

37231, 37232, 37236, 248565, 248610
Abstract:

A lift device mounted on a vehicle is provided for lifting a vertically movable assembly mounted to the vehicle. It has a primary lift arm in pivotal relation to the vehicle with a near end and a distal end disposed generally above the assembly. A secondary lift arm is pivotally mounted on the primary lift arm and has a free end. A hanging mechanism secures the assembly to the free end to suspend the assembly from the free end. A positioning mechanism raises and lowers the distal end of the primary lift arm to raise and lower the assembly and to hold the assembly off of the ground on which the vehicle travels. An elastic member attenuates resultant forces originating at the assembly and transmitted from the secondary lift arm to the primary lift. The forces are therefore absorbed preventing transmission of the forces to the vehicle.

Filed:

Mar 5, 1998
Appl. No.:

9/038675
Inventors:

James Anthony DiClementi - Mount Prospect IL
Robert Daniel DiClementi - Northbrook IL
Linda Rose DiClementi - Arlington Heights IL
International Classification:

E01H 504
F16M 1300
US Classification:

37232
Abstract:

A vehicle plow suspension system designed for use with a large object such as a plow blade is disclosed. The suspension system is disposed between and connected to the plow blade and its associated positioning means, and comprises an expansion spring coaxially mounted about a two-way shock absorber in a sealed housing. The suspension system operates to attenuate both the relative movement between the plow blade and its associated vehicle, and the resultant forces thereby transmitted from the plow blade to the vehicle.
