Abstract:
A grain cleaning device with movable teeth forming a comb which is attached to the shaker table by means of supporting and guiding components which permit displacement of said comb in a transverse direction with respect to the shaker table under the action of control means attached to the frame in which the shaker table is mounted.
Abstract:
A locking lever for securing the linkage of a loader vehicle in a predetermined position. The locking lever is pivotally secured to the vehicle whereby it can be swung out to a position where it keys with a bracket means, fixed to the linkage, when the linkage achieves a given orientation.
Abstract:
Transmission having a number of lubricant cooled friction engaging means, a majority of which at any time are nonselected for operation, and further having flow blocking sleeves individual to the friction engaging means to restrict same for only lo cooling flow to the majority which, as indicated, are the nonselected ones, and moving automatically and conjointly with movement of each selected one of the friction engaging means to unblock hi cooling flow to that one while at and to and from engaged position.
Abstract:
A parking brake and accelerator system in which the activation of the parking brake engages a lockout mechanism which restricts the operator''s ability to increase the output of the power source.
Abstract:
Methods of and apparatus for reducing nitrogen oxides which employ self-supporting, catalytically active alloys of metals from Groups IB, III, VIIB and VIII of the periodic table.
Abstract:
Apparatus for producing a signal indicative of the temperature of a heated gas comprising the beta particle source; a beta particle detector which intercepts particles emitted from said source; circuitry for converting the detector output to a signal indicative of the density of the gas; a pressure transducer for generating a signal indicative of the pressure on the gas; and to produce a signal indicative of the average temperature of the gas along the path between the beta particle source and the beta particle detector, the apparatus being useful in the measurement of turbine inlet gas temperatures for purposes of monitoring and control.
Abstract:
Ultrasonic scanning system in which the angular position of a transducer is alternately adjusted about two transverse axes by reversible stepping motors each being adjusted by operating in one direction until obtaining a decrease in the amplitude of a front surface reflection signals, gated to a sample/hold circuit, the direction being reversed to increase the amplitude of the front surface reflection signal to a maximum and to thereby position the axis of the transducer normal to the front surface of a part under test. Another stepping motor is operated to hold a transducer toward or away from the part in response to outputs from sample/hold circuits to which a received video signal is gated during time intervals respectively greater than and less than a time corresponding to a desired spacing, to thereby maintain a substantially fixed distance between a transducer and the part.
Abstract:
A cam means pivotally fixed to the tractor frame cooperates with cam-containing bumpers carried on the lower links to control horizontal movement of the links. The cam means consists of a member having a series of spaced-apart parallel flats and a cammed surface.
Abstract:
Ignition amplifier circuit wherein a transistor switch is closed to build up current through a primary winding of an ignition coil and then opened to cause an increase in the voltage of both the primary and secondary windings. A capacitor is charged during closure of the transistor switch and, in response to the increase in voltage of the primary winding, a SCR is triggered to discharge the capacitor through the primary winding, to generate a short duration high voltage pulse in the secondary winding having a sharp rise time. Thereafter, inductive discharge of the coil continues to produce a secondary voltage of substantial magnitude and a long burn time. The capacitor is charged during closure of the transistor switch through a simple diode connection to the secondary winding.
