The eccentric assembly includes a tubular section, an eccentric weight, and a counterweight. The eccentric weight is mounted within the tubular section such that as a motor rotates the eccentric assembly, the eccentric weight generates vibrations that are transferred to the drum assembly of the vibration compacting machine. The counterweight is slidably coupled to the eccentric weight and moves between a first position where the counterweight contacts the eccentric weight and a second position where the counterweight contacts the tubular section.

Speed controlled eccentric assembly

A protective apparatus for use in an industrial vehicle having an operator station including a protective member adapted to be connected with the vehicle so as to be generally disposed above the operator station. The protective member has a plurality of apertures configured to allow sound waves from vibrations of the vehicle to propagate through the protective member while generally preventing solid objects from falling through the protective member.
