摘要:
A vibration mitigation device is configured to be fixedly coupled to a generally horizontally extending support member. The vibration mitigation device includes a generally vertically extending housing extending from the generally horizontally extending support member and a reciprocating assembly coupled with and fully enclosed inside of the generally vertically extending housing.

An irrigation system is disclosed that is configured to maintain a near straight. In an implementation, an irrigation system includes multiple interconnected spans that are supported by multiple tower structures and an extension arm pivotally connected to the end tower. Each tower structure includes a variable-speed drive unit for selectively driving a tower structure at a selected speed. The irrigation system also includes multiple sensors that are each associated with a corresponding span to determine an alignment of the corresponding span with respect to adjacent spans. Each of the sensors is in communication with a corresponding variable-drive control unit. Each of the variable-drive control units are configured to control the selected speed of a corresponding variable-speed drive unit to maintain the interconnected spans in a substantially linear orientation with respect to adjacent ones of the plurality of interconnected spans along a generally longitudinally oriented axis.

摘要:
A wind energy tower erection device is disclosed together with the method of assembling the same and the method of utilizing the device to erect a wind energy tower. The tower erection device successively places tower sections one upon the other until the tower is erected.
摘要:
A concrete pole includes an attachment mechanism which provides astructurally sound means of attaching to the pole and permits the use of short, inexpensive bolts. The attachment mechanism (30) includes reinforcing bars (50), a base plate (32), an internally threaded fastener insert (38) fixed to the base plate, which provides a path from the base plate, which is embedded in the concrete pole, to the finished outside surface of the pole. One embodiment includes a pipe (60) connecting opposing fasteners inserts for added strength.
