Abstract: A molded rubber roll for use in conjunction with one or more additional rolls of similar construction on a hay conditioning machine. The roll has a cylindrical peripheral intermediate surface with a plurality of rows of integral lugs extending radially outwardly therefrom and a plurality of rows of depressions extending radially inwardly therefrom. When a pair of such rolls are mounted in parallel relationship on a hay conditioning machine, the intermediate surfaces of the rolls are in continuous rolling contact as the rolls rotate and the tops of the lugs of each roll contact the bottoms of the depressions in the opposite roll, thereby forming three different levels of crushing surfaces which crush the hay as it passes between the rotating rolls. The lugs and depressions are preferably circular shape but may be molded in other shapes such as diamonds, hexagons, rectangles and the like. The rolls are normally molded or splined to a metal shaft which in turn is rotatably mounted on the hay conditioner machine.

Abstract: A tire stud having increased traction characteristics due to increased edge contact with the road achieved by the crosssectional contour of the traction portion of the stud. In one embodiment, the traction portion is X-shaped in cross section and in another embodiment, the traction portion is L-shaped in cross section. The stud may be inserted directly in a hole previously molded in a tire tread or it can be encased in an elastomeric plug which is vulcanized to the stud and then the plug with the stud therein is placed within a premolded hole in the tire tread. To more firmly secure the elastomeric plug in the hole, adhesive may be applied.

Abstract: A multipiece rim for use on off-the-road type vehicles such as earthmovers and the like, particularly those vehicles using lowpressure tires. A thrust plate is bolted to a bracket on the bead seat band of the rim and extends over the axially outer edge of the rim base to prevent axially inward movement of the bead seat band which may break the seal between the bead seat band and the rim base and permit loss of air from a tire carried on the rim. In addition to engaging the rim base to prevent axial movement, the thrust plate may also engage one or more lugs on the rim base to prevent circumferential movement of the bead seat band with respect to the rim base.
