Abstract

An outrigger assembly for the support and stabilization of a mobile work machine, such as a vehicle-mounted telescopic belt conveyor, while the machine is operating. The outrigger assembly includes a vertical outrigger leg assembly. The vertical outrigger leg assembly is attached to the end of a horizontally extending member and includes multiple telescopically extendable sections that extend until a support pad is in contact with the work surface, then raise the mobile work machine off of the ground into a stabilized position. The multiple leg sections allow for increased vertical lifting distance, thus improving stability on uneven work surfaces, and allow the outrigger assembly to be used on larger machines.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] The present invention relates to an outrigger assembly for stabilizing a mobile work machine. More specifically, the present invention is an outrigger assembly for stabilizing a self-propelled, vehicle-mounted conveyor system used to place concrete or other materials in a desired location where the vertical movement of the outrigger leg is actuated by utilizing multiple cylinders to direct the multiple telescoping leg sections.

[0002] Vehicle-mounted, extendable material placement systems have been in use for some time and are the subject of numerous prior patents. In such vehicles, a telescopic or sectional-unfolding boom extends from a rotating turret attached to the vehicle. The substantial amount of weight extending from the vehicle chassis necessitates the use of outriggers to stabilize the vehicle and prevent the vehicle from tilting or overturning. Extendable material placement systems are most typically utilized during the construction of n...
