Wear assembly

Abstract

A wear assembly positioned between contacting surfaces a moldboard assembly and at least one of a mounting bracket or a work implement of a work machine. The wear assembly includes a plurality of wear strips having a first surface and a second surface defining a thickness of the wear strip therebetween. The first surface of the wear strip is positioned in a contacting relationship with one of the contacting surfaces, and the second surface of the wear strip is positioned in a contacting relationship with an other of the contacting surfaces. At least one of the first or second surfaces of each of the plurality of wear strips includes a number of recesses infused with a lubricant, such that the number of recesses is formed on a surface area of the wear strip in frictional contact with at least one of the contacting surfaces.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A wear assembly associated with a moldboard assembly of a work machine, the wear assembly being positioned between contacting surfaces of the moldboard assembly and at least one of a mounting bracket or a work implement of the work machine, the wear assembly comprising:
 a plurality of wear strips positioned between the contacting surfaces, the contacting surfaces configured to move relative to each other, each of the plurality of wear strips having a first surface and a second surface, the first and second surfaces defining a thickness of the wear strip therebetween,   wherein the first surface of the wear strip is positioned in a contacting relationship with one of the contacting surfaces, wherein the second surface of the wear strip is positioned in a contacting relationship with an other of the contacting surfaces, and   wherein at least one of the first or second surfaces of each of the plurality of wear strips includes a number of recesses formed thereon, each of the number of recesses configured to be infused with a lubricant therein, such that the number of recesses are formed on a surface area of the wear strip in frictional contact with at least one of the contacting surfaces.
