Abstract
A basic operator's cab can be expanded after assembly to provide a widening thereof as well as an expansion in length or both a widening and length expansion. The operator's cab is generally of a rectangular configuration and is fabricated with a diagonal separation line. The two basic sections are connected by nuts and bolts to allow disassembly and movement thereafter. Depending upon customer preference, these two basic sections can be expanded by placing insert members between the two sections which insert members will afford a widening or a lengthening or a combination of both. The insert members can be secured to the two basic sections by use of removable fasteners such as nuts and bolts which also connect the cab sections. The three-way expansion and insert feature for the operator's cab can be utilized for any type of modular unit which is to be expanded and is most particularly suited for large equipment such as blast hole drills.
