Abstract:
A connecting and adapting system for interconnecting a pair of jaws of a grapple assembly and for adapting the grapple assembly for connecting to a plurality of linkages. The system includes bearings, where the bearings have a flange, an elongated section, and a bore. The flange of the bearings abuts a portion of one of the jaws, the elongated section of the bearings interconnects the jaws, and the bore of the bearing receives a pin to provide a connecting location. A portion of the bearing, being positioned opposite the flange, receives a collar that abuts a portion of one of the jaws.
