Abstract: A rotating concave grain threshing system has a rotor positioned within a concave. The rotor and concave are each rotatable in different preselected speeds and directions through respective transmissions connected to a power source. Measurements are taken corresponding to a physical property of the crop being harvested and the torque induced on the concave. A signal is generated and is responsive to changes in the measurements and delivered to a controller. The controller will then create a controlling signal corresponding to a difference between the desired physical property and the measured physical property and/or the desired torque and the measured torque being greater than a preselected amount. An actuator receives the controlling signal and changes the speed of the concave in response to the magnitude of the received controlling signal.

Abstract: The energy conversion system of the subject invention converts the energy from a source of pressurized fluid, such as a free-piston engine and a storage accumulator, to a work system at various pressure levels. This is accomplished by providing power modifying units which act to efficiently reduce the pressure level of the fluid from the source of pressurized fluid to the various pressure levels. A control arrangement monitors the operating pressures in the actuators and selects the path of pressurized fluid having the lowest pressure level needed to perform the task. Additionally, exhausted fluid containing energy is utilized by regenerating the fluid back to the inlet of the actuator or by directing it through the appropriate power modifying unit to amplify the pressure therein and supplement or recharge the source of pressurized fluid.

Abstract: An edge scraper device for the inboard edge of a belted track-type vehicle removes debris from the track edge as the vehicle operates in muddy or trash-laden environments by close-proximity relationship to the track edge. Spring biasing and adjustment devices retain the scraper device in a functionally close proximity to the track edge. The edge scraper device is mounted substantially above the track to prevent fallen debris from accumulating on the device.

Abstract: A differential steer is provided for use in a machine and includes a variable displacement motor operatively connected to a differential disposed between first and second output members. The variable displacement motor is an over-center type and the displacement thereof is varied from zero to maximum in both directions of movement. Pressurized fluid to drive the steer motor is received from the main system pump. A microprocessor senses the direction and rate of rotation of the steer motor output, the speed of the outputs from the differential, the magnitude of a steer input, and controls the output speed of the steer motor to the differential in response to the magnitude of the steer input. Consequently, the quantity of fluid taken from the main system pump is limited to only that necessary to rotate the steer motor at a rate necessary to satisfy the desired steer input. Since the steer motor is using only the flow necessary to rotate the steer motor output at a desired speed and the steer motor torque is generally proportional to the steer motor displacement, the overall operating efficiency is increased as compared to known differential steer systems.

Abstract: Extruded reinforced hoses are useful in fluid systems which operate at high pressures. Other reinforced hoses are prepared in individual stations for particular parts of the reinforced hose consequently requiring large amounts of manufacturing floor space. Still other processes require extruding a hose on a mandrel and subsequently applying a fabric reinforcement member. In these processes, the length of the hose is limited by the length of the mandrel. The present apparatus produces an extruded reinforced hose (10) by braiding a metal reinforcement member (16) on a mandrel (42) and extruding a liner (21) and cover (22) at approximately the same location as the member (16) leaves the mandrel (42). The formed hose (10) is pulled at a linear rate faster than the hose (10) is being produced in order to change the braid angle of the braided member (16) to a predetermined selected braid angle and holding for subsequent curing. The metal braided reinforcement member (16) provides the high strength characteristic while the extruding of the liner (21) and the cover (22) at approximately the same location near the mandrel (42) eliminates the need for separate lengthy mandrels on which to extrude the hose (10), thus minimizing manufacturing floor space and reducing costs.

Abstract: An apparatus and method is provided for continuously extruding an elastomeric hose (10) having a controlled internal size. A controlled internal size is necessary in order to mount various types of couplings to the hose. Other hose making processes require extruding the hose on a mandrel in order to control the internal size. The use of mandrels restrict hose length and require additional floor space due to the lengthy mandrels. An extruded hose (10) having a controlled internal size is continuously made by extruding an elastomeric material over a first end portion (104) of an internal shaping member (102) and continuously monitoring the flow of air between a gauge member (112) and the internal size of the hose (10). The rate of extrusion is controlled in response to the flow of air between the gauge member (112) and the internal size of the hose (10) changing from a predetermined range. The continuous monitoring of the internal size adjacent the internal shaping member and adjusting the rate of extrusion in response thereto produces a continuous hose with a controlled internal size without the use of long mandrels.
