Problems solved by technology

But the need for heat treatment has also led to the need to design the wheel tops in a geometry that facilitates this heat treatment, but that geometry is not optimal for compaction
[0010] In summary, prior art compactor wheel crown designs lead to trade-offs between the choice of material wear resistance, durability, and weldability, and the choice of wheel crown geometry

Abstract

A compactor tip (10) assembly for a landfill or soil compactor comprises a base (200) and a tip that are formed from dissimilar materials. The tip (100) may be formed from high carbon steel for wear resistance, while the base (200) may be formed from low carbon steel for easy welding. The compactor tip assembly is attached to the compactor wheel by welding the base to the wheel. The tip and the base each have ground engaging surfaces (101, 201) which may be complementary to one another. A hollow pocket (11) may be formed through the base and in the tip.

Description

technical field [0001] This invention relates to wheel tops for refuse and soil compactors. Background technique [0002] Trash compactors are machines that move over piles in a landfill to compact trash. Compacting waste maximizes landfill use. When trash is compacted, more material can be deposited in the landfill because the trash is packed more tightly. Compacting waste also helps ensure the long-term structural stability of the landfill when it is filled and covered with soil. Similarly, a soil compactor is a machine that moves over soil, gravel, or other materials to compact them in preparation for road building or other construction purposes. [0003] Trash compactors and soil compactors typically have large, heavy steel wheels. The machine bodies are also relatively heavy, and the combined weight of each machine body and wheel set provides the necessary downward force for compaction. To increase the compaction capacity, the wheels of the compactor are usually eq...
