ABSTRACT:
An excavator for continuously excavating soil includes an elongated frame, which is generally rectangular in plan, the frame being defined by a pair of spaced apart, parallel sides; a tow bar at the front end of the frame for connecting the latter to a tractor or other towing vehicle; a large, central wheel for carrying the frame; hydraulic cylinders for adjusting the height and longitudinal position of the wheel in the frame, and consequently for adjusting the depth of cut made by a blade mounted in the frame behind and/or beneath the wheel and a conveyor mounted in the frame rearwardly of the blade for receiving excavated soil and feeding the soil rearwardly for discharge from the excavator.
