A heated bucket system (10) for significantly reducing the accumulation of frozen mud and ice within a bucket (12) thereby maintaining the bucket's dirt moving capacity. The inventive device includes a bucket (12) attachable to an arm of a backhoe or other machinery, a pump attached to the coolant system of the backhoe, an inflow tube (20) fluidly connected to the pump, a heat tube (50) attached to the back member of the bucket (12) preferably in a sinusoidal pattern and fluidly connected to the inflow tube (20), and an outflow tube (30) fluidly connected to the heat tube (50) opposite of the inflow tube (20) and fluidly connected to the coolant system of the backhoe. The heat from the coolant is exchanged with the bucket (12) thereby maintaining the temperature of the bucket (12) above freezing.

Cette invention se rapporte ~ un syst­me de godet chauff~, qui sert ~ r~duire consid~rablement l'accumulation de boue congel~e et de glace dans un godet, afin de pr~server la capacit~ de d~placement des d~chets du godet. Le dispositif faisant l'objet de cette invention comprend un godet pouvant Útre fix~ au bras d'une pelle r~trocaveuse ou de tout autre engin de chantier, une pompe fix~e au syst­me r~frig~rant de la pelle r~trocaveuse, un tube d'admission raccord~ hydrauliquement ~ la pompe, un tube chauffant fix~ ~ l'arri­re du godet de pr~f~rence selon une configuration en serpentin et raccord~ hydrauliquement au tube d'admission, et un tube d'~mission raccord~ hydrauliquement au tube chauffant ~ l'oppos~ du tube d'admission et raccord~ hydrauliquement au syst­me r~frig~rant de la pelle r~trocaveuse. En mode de fonctionnement, la pompe aspire le r~frig~rant chauff~ dans le syst­me r~frig~rant et le pompe ~ travers le tube chauffant fix~ au godet. La chaleur extraite du r~frig~rant est ~chang~e avec le godet, maintenant ainsi la temp~rature du godet au-dessus du point de cong~lation. Le r~frig~rant est ensuite renvoy~ dans le syst­me r~frig~rant par un tube d'~mission. Le godet ainsi chauff~ empÚche la boue et l'eau de congeler dans le godet pendant le fonctionnement, pr~servant ainsi les performances de terrassement de la pelle r~trocaveuse dans des condition atmosph~riques froides. Cette invention sert ~galement ~ pr~server les performances de terrassement du godet dans des conditions atmosph~riques chaudes, en empÚchant l'accumulation de boue et de d~chets collants.
