An Example in Steel Casting    Hinge/Bearing Assembly for Log Forwarder

Feature C -- Flange Section on the Hinge Plate

wpeE.jpg (13052 bytes)

Feature C, the flange plate on the hinge plate, is approximately 1.5” thick, 13” long, and 35” wide at the base.

With the triangular shape and the pivot rod hole on the end of the plate, a “hot spot” is unlikely to develop in this section.

The picture shows a proposed pad, but no padding is necessary on the flange section of the hinge plate

Feature C does not need padding to prevent an isolated hot spot.
