Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 148 words
An earth working machine comprising a turret, an earth working tool, a jib pivotally mounted on the turret, jib and tool operating means comprising first and second deformable parallelograms, said first and second parallelograms having major sides which are equal and are adapted to be oriented simultaneously according to equal and opposite angles by means of an angular orientation mechanism comprising two rams, said first parallelogram extending from and connected to said turret, said second parallelogram supporting said tool on its outermost end, means connected between said deformable parallelograms for adjusting the height of the tool with respect to the ground, and pivotal connection means connecting the two major sides of said second parallelogram supporting the tool to the means for adjusting the height of the tool with respect to the ground wherein the means for adjusting the height of the tool is of the parallelogram displacement type.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 148 words
An earth working machine comprising a turret, an earth working tool, a jib pivotally mounted on the turret, jib and tool operating means comprising first and second deformable parallelograms, said first and second parallelograms having major sides which are equal and are adapted to be oriented simultaneously according to equal and opposite angles by means of an angular orientation mechanism comprising two rams, said first parallelogram extending from and connected to said turret, said second parallelogram supporting said tool on its outermost end, means connected between said deformable parallelograms for adjusting the height of the tool with respect to the ground, and pivotal connection means connecting the two major sides of said second parallelogram supporting the tool to the means for adjusting the height of the tool with respect to the ground wherein the means for adjusting the height of the tool is of the parallelogram displacement type.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A machine according to claim 1, characterized in that the means for adjusting the height of the tool consists of a deformable parallelogram.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
