Abstract
Abstract An extension boom for use with a tractor mounted back hoe assembly comprises a main body section pivotally connected at one end to said back hoe assembly in place of the usual back hoe bucket. The main body section is formed of a pair of spaced elongated channel members with a fixed outwardly extending tubular member therebetween. A secondary tubular member is positioned partially within said tubular member and is telescopically extensible therefrom. The extension is adapted to support an aerial platform for a workman.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
207 words
An extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly thereon wherein the back hoe assembly has a pair of arms pivoted to one another and wherein one of the arms is pivoted to the tractor and means on the tractor and the arms for moving the same relative to one another, the extension boom being pivotally attached to one of said arms so as to extend outwardly therefrom, said extension boom comprising a pair of elongated body members arranged in spaced parallel relation, a first tubular member secured to the elongated body members and extending outwardly beyond one end thereof, a secondary tubular body member telescopically mounted in said first tubular body member and means for securing said secondary tubular body member in desired relation to the first tubular body member, means on said boom for supporting an article to be moved, apertured attachment plates on said elongated body members located above the axial center line thereof and links selectively engaged in said apertures plates, power means on one of said arms and connected with said links whereby motion imparted by said power means to said apertured plates raises and lowers said boom extension relative to said arms of said back hoe assembly.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
207 words
An extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly thereon wherein the back hoe assembly has a pair of arms pivoted to one another and wherein one of the arms is pivoted to the tractor and means on the tractor and the arms for moving the same relative to one another, the extension boom being pivotally attached to one of said arms so as to extend outwardly therefrom, said extension boom comprising a pair of elongated body members arranged in spaced parallel relation, a first tubular member secured to the elongated body members and extending outwardly beyond one end thereof, a secondary tubular body member telescopically mounted in said first tubular body member and means for securing said secondary tubular body member in desired relation to the first tubular body member, means on said boom for supporting an article to be moved, apertured attachment plates on said elongated body members located above the axial center line thereof and links selectively engaged in said apertures plates, power means on one of said arms and connected with said links whereby motion imparted by said power means to said apertured plates raises and lowers said boom extension relative to said arms of said back hoe assembly.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
75 words
The extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly mounted thereon as set forth in claim 1 and wherein a yoke of inverted U-shape in cross section is positioned over and in registry with said secondary tubular body member and wherein portions of the yoke are angularly disposed with respect to said mounting bracket, pivotal means on the outer ends of said angularly disposed portions and an aerial platform suspended therefrom.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
46 words
The extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly thereon as set forth in claim 1 and wherein said power means on one of said arms comprises a piston and cylinder assembly and wherein said power means is controlled from said tractor.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
52 words
The extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly thereon as set forth in claim 1 and wherein the first tubular member is positioned between said spaced elongated body members for a portion of its length with the majority of its length extending beyond said elongated body members.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
80 words
The extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly as set forth in claim 1 and wherein said means on the tractor and the arms for moving the same relative to one another comprise hydraulic piston and cylinder assemblies, one positioned between said tractor and one of said arms and the other positioned between one of said arms and the other of said arms at points spaced with respect to the pivotal engagement of said arms.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
86 words
The extension boom for use with a tractor having a back hoe assembly thereon as set forth in claim 1 and wherein the first tubular body member is of substantially square cross section and the secondary tubular body member telescopically mounted in said first tubular body member is of substantially square cross section and wherein said pair of elongated body members comprise channel-shaped members with the flanges outturned with respect to one another and spaced in parallel relation sufficiently to receive said first tubular member therebetween.
