Heavy duty shroud
Abstract HEAVY DUTY SHROUD A shroud configured to be attached to a work implement, the shroud comprising: a body defining a closed end and an open end, a first side surface and a second 5 side surface; a working portion disposed proximate the closed end; a first leg extending rearward from the working portion to the open end; a second leg extending rearward from the working portion to the open end; and a throat portion that connects the legs and working portion together; wherein the first and second legs define a slot, the slot defining a direction of assembly onto a work 10 implement and the body defines a Cartesian coordinate system at its center of mass having a X-axis, a Y-axis and a Z-axis and defining a X-Y plane, a X-Z plane, and a Y-Z plane, wherein the X-axis is parallel with the direction of assembly; and the working portion defines a ground engaging surface at the closed end and an upper outside loading surface extending from the ground 15 engaging surface toward the open end and the first leg, the upper outside loading surface comprising a first concave arcuate loading portion extending from the ground engaging surface toward the first leg, a first convex arcuate loading portion extending from the first concave arcuate loading portion toward the first leg, and a second convex arcuate loading portion extending from the first convex 20 arcuate loading portion toward the first leg wherein the upper outside loading surface including the first concave arcuate surface extends through the X-Z plane.
