Caterpillar D10
The Caterpillar D10 is a bulldozer manufactured by Caterpillar Inc. between 1977 and 1987, when it was superseded by the Caterpillar D11, D11. It was the first modern tractor to use the elevated drive sprocket to improve durability, operator comfort, and ease of maintenance. History The Caterpillar D10 was the result of a need for a tractor larger than the Caterpillar D9. At this time, competitors were building bulldozers that were more powerful than the D9. Allis Chalmers introduced at Conexpo 69 in Chicago a HD-41 which was the largest crawler in the world. In 1974 after Allis Chalmers and Fiat merged their construction equipment divisions, the 41-B was introduced. For example, the Fiat-Allis 41-B track-type tractor had at the time, while the D9H had . In 1976 Japanese company Komatsu Limited, Komatsu came out with an even larger bulldozer called the D455A at and . The first pilot D10 was D10X1 and was shown in July 1973 at a big Caterpillar corporate meeting. Other prot ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Its most popular accessory is a #Ripper, ripper, a large hook-like device mounted singly or in multiples in the rear to loosen dense materials. Bulldozers are used heavily in large and small scale construction, road building, mining and quarrying, on farms, in heavy industry factories, and in military applications in both peace and wartime. The word "bulldozer" refers only to a motorized unit fitted with a blade designed for pushing. The word is sometimes used inaccurately for other heavy equipment such as the generally similar Loader (equipment), front-end loader designed for carrying material rather than ...

Drive Sprocket
A sprocket, sprocket-wheel or chainwheel is a profiled wheel with teeth that mesh with a chain, rack or other perforated or indented material. The name 'sprocket' applies generally to any wheel upon which radial projections engage a chain passing over it. It is distinguished from a gear in that sprockets are never meshed together directly, and differs from a pulley in that sprockets have teeth and pulleys are smooth except for timing pulleys used with toothed belts. Sprockets are used in bicycles, motorcycles, tracked vehicles, and other machinery either to transmit rotary motion between two shafts where gears are unsuitable or to impart linear motion to a track, tape etc. Perhaps the most common form of sprocket may be found in the bicycle, in which the pedal shaft carries a large sprocket-wheel, which drives a chain, which, in turn, drives a small sprocket on the axle of the rear wheel. Early automobiles were also largely driven by sprocket and chain mechanism, a practice larg ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |
