Loader with parallel motion tool linkage

摘要

A front-end loader includes a pair of loader arms and features a parallelogram-shaped plate assembly associated with each arm and having first and second corners respectively pivotally mounted to the forward end of a respective loader arm and to an implement carrier holder and having third and fourth corners respectively pivotally coupled to levelling and tilt linkage assemblies. A tilt cylinder is mounted between the tilt linkage assembly and the parallelogram-shaped plate assembly. The parallelogram-shaped plate assembly serves to transfer levelling linkage and tilt cylinder inputs to an implement carrier holder coupled to a mounting bracket at the rear side of a bucket.
