Platform Cover Cleanout / Cup Holder (Product Improvement)

QAR Interlock Cutout

Interlock cutout removed from weldment assemblies and replaced to be on newly created outrigger legs.

- This makes design control easier to manage by showing it on the leg and not each weldment

Weldment Assembly Drawing Updates Updated the eight corresponding weldment assembly drawings to show

increased clarity of weldment procedures. This included isometric, detail, and exploded views.

BEFORE

AFTER

Redesigned Outrigger Rod Cover

Outrigger rod cover would come into interference with the cylinder manifold when folded. Cover was redesigned to prevent this occurrence.

Contact

Stationary cylinder manifold

Retracting rod cover

Before After

New design enables rod cover to safely return to the stowed position without contact.

Old Rod Cover Vs. New Rod Cover

Old New

Outrigger Rod Cover Scraping The rod cover would also come into contact (metal-on-metal) with the cylinder it

covered when maneuvering the outrigger legs. This caused both scratches and paint damages to the parts. Designed and created new slide pad to hinder

metal-on-metal scraping.

CDS0009 Implementation (Altec Decals)

Altec Corporate wanted to ensure that their aerials had four visible logos on their machines:

• 2 curb side• 1 street side• 1 rear/front (depending on model)

Platform Cover Cleanout / Cup holder Customers had issues with debris, such as woodchips, getting caught in

the TDA58 cup holder as well as the bottom of the platform. Users were not able to clear debris, a new design was needed.

Old design, ½ in hole in center Initial idea for redesign

Platform Cover Cleanout / Cup holder

Final Design, Quarter-cut Prototype – made on camps

Lesson: sometimes the simple approach is the best approach.

Platform Cover Cleanout / Cup holder Similar to the cup holder, the bottom of the platform cover also experienced

issues with built-up debris. Cover must continue to hold in the multiple hoses
