摘要:
A powered coupling system is configured to interconnect utility lines such as fluid and/or electric lines of a vehicle tractor to a trailer. A curved track is mounted to a frame of the tractor, and the system includes pneumatic and/or electrical connectors that move along the curved track to align the connectors with a corresponding connectors on a trailer. A linear actuator causes the connectors on the tractor to shift vertically to connect and disconnect the connectors on the tractor to connectors on the trailer. The curved track permits alignment of the connectors on the tractor with the connectors on the trailer even if the trailer is not in a straight line with the tractor.

A directing apparatus includes a mechanism for producing steerable energy. The apparatus includes a mechanism for steering energy from the producing mechanism while the producing mechanism is stationary. The steering mechanism is in communication with the producing mechanism. The steering mechanism includes a scanning mechanism which continuously in a first direction scans the volume of a surrounding vertically and horizontally. A directing method.

A rotating screen, for use with a centrifugal fan of an engine, includes a hub having a rotational axis and a plurality of blades extending radially outwardly from the hub. Each of the blades includes a root adjacent the hub, a tip, a leading edge extending between the root and the tip, and a trailing edge extending between the root and the tip. The blades also include an airfoil shape. The rotating screen also includes a band concentric with the hub and interconnecting the tips of the respective blades.

A wheeled upright luggage case having oversized wheels for improved rolling movement. The luggage case has a pair of wheels that are oversize in proportion to the body of the case. The oversize wheels are rotatably mounted in fender assemblies disposed on the outsides of the body of the case, so that the oversize wheels do not detract from the cargo capacity of the case. The wheels are mounted to protrude a specified relational distance from the bottom, or the back and the bottom, of the case to permit the case to be rolled while tilted at a wide variety of angles and to easily be pulled up stairs or curbs.

A quick release mechanism and headpiece for use with a respirator. The quick release mechanism uses a cam latch pivotably attached to a yoke to control the tension in an upper tension strap. In the latched position the upper tension strap traverses the yoke and, together with a pair of lower tension straps and neck catch, support and seal the respirator mask against the face of the wearer. In the unlatched position the upper tension straps loosely support the mask below the chin of the wearer in a parked position. The upper strap is attached to a circular shaped headpiece having a crown piece fitting to the top of the head of the wearer. The lower straps are attached to a rounded neck catch secured behind the neck of the wearer. The upper and lower straps preferably and advantageously comprise a material or materials having a low maximum elongation to ensure a snug and comfortable mask fit. Filter or sorbent cartridges and caps are optimized to provide easy replacement of filter or sorbent elements and maximal exposure of filter or sorbent material surface area.
