Abstract: A multi container system of at least one each of the first container, and at least one second and at least one third container, each of which has a chamber therein. The first container has a water retaining chamber with water input and water output as well as a water self leveling means. The second container has a water transfer chamber in which a wicking tray loaded with a wicking medium is placed, preferably on a drainage tray, said medium being used to transfer the water to the plants disposed in a third container's plant receiving chamber. The container #3 nests within the water transfer chamber of container #2, to receive water therefrom by capillary action. Container #1 is fluidly connected to a first container #2 for water transfer, and a series of containers #2 may be linked, as space limitations and grade permit, or as may be desired.

Abstract: A shift mechanism for a transmission in a vehicle includes a housing, a shift lever, a key cylinder and an actuator. The actuator operably connects to the key cylinder and is capable of movement between a first position that prevents the shift lever from changing shift positions, and a second position that allows the shift lever to change shift positions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for transferring harvested tobacco leaves from an amorphous mass of harvested tobacco leaves to a bulk curing container component for subsequent transfer to a bulk curing site. According to the method, the bulk curing container component is positioned adjacent a tobacco discharging end of a tobacco transferring system. The transferring system has the discharging end, a tobacco receiving end opposite the discharging end, and a generally upwardly facing tobacco conveying apparatus for supporting and moving the leaves between the discharging and receiving ends. The amorphous mass of harvested tobacco leaves is supplied to the tobacco conveying apparatus at the tobacco receiving end of the transferring system in such a manner that the harvested tobacco leaves of the amorphous mass are randomly arranged and stacked on top of one another in a generally vertical direction. The transferring system is continuously operated under power such that the transferring system (a) conveys the harvested tobacco leaves from the tobacco receiving end thereof to the tobacco discharging end thereof and then subsequently discharges the conveyed tobacco leaves to the bulk curing container component, and (b) separates the leaves from one another and disperses the separated leaves along the tobacco conveying apparatus as the leaves are being conveyed to thereby reduce the aforesaid vertical stacking of the harvested leaves so that substantially all the leaves being discharged into the bulk curing container component from the discharging end thereof are separated from one another. The present invention also relates to a tobacco transferring system.

Abstract: A multiple plant container self-watering system comprises a primary container at a first elevation and a plurality of secondary containers at different elevations, fluidly connected by means of tubing. The primary container comprises a primary outer shell that encloses a primary reservoir pot, having an expanded upper portion and a tubular lower portion, a primary wick and a primary grow pot. Each of the plurality of secondary containers comprises a secondary outer shell that encloses a secondary reservoir pot having an expanded upper portion and a tubular lower portion, a secondary wick, and a secondary grow pot. The diameter of the lower portion of the primary and secondary reservoir pot is greatly reduced in comparison to the diameter of the upper portion thereof, thereby allowing for substantially similar dry-down time for a plurality of fluidly connected plant containers at different elevations.
