摘要： The concepts relate to reducing energy loss associated with hot water systems. One example is manifest as a system with an automatic hot water recovery apparatus and selective hot water isolation devices. In one example a selective hot water isolation device is configured to be connected in fluid flowing relation with a first water line and a second water line and the selective hot water isolation device is configured to control water cross-over from the second water line into the first water line based upon water flow through the first water line.

摘要： A machine for harvesting crops which grow as stalks or spears such as asparagus includes a frame supported by wheels to enable moving the frame along the ground, a stalk sensing mechanism for sensing stalks of a predetermined height, and a cutting and stalk grasping mechanism which is rotated into a cutting position adjacent each stalk sensed by the sensing mechanism. When the cutting and grasping mechanism reaches the cutting position, holding plates or pads move to secure the stalk therebetween and then a cutting element cuts the stalk below ground level. The operation of securing the stalk between the holding pads also serves to align the cutting element for cutting the stalk. The holding pads then elevate the stalk and ultimately spread apart above a stalk conveyor mechanism to allow the stalk to drop onto the conveyor. The stalk is then carried by the conveyor mechanism to a holding bin where it is deposited along with other stalks in a uniform orientation.

摘要： A machine for harvesting crops which grow as stalks or spears such as asparagus. The machine includes a frame having wheels to carry the frame along the ground, a stalk sensing mechanism for sensing stalks of a predetermined height in a certain pathway, and a cutting mechanism which is rotated into a cutting position beside each stalk sensed by the sensing mechanism. When it reaches the cutting position, a portion of the cutting mechanism is moved transversely of the pathway to cut the stalk below ground level. Substantially simultaneously with the cutting of a stalk, a grasping mechanism seizes the stalk and, coincident with the rotation of the cutting mechanism, carries the stalk to a holding bin.

摘要： The concepts relate to reducing energy loss associated with hot water systems. One example can monitor hot water use in a system. Upon completion of the hot water use, the example can recover some of the hot water from hot water lines into a water heater that heated the hot water. The method can also deliver the recovered hot water to the water heater in a manner that affects operation of a heating element of the water heater.

摘要： The concepts relate to reducing energy loss associated with hot water systems. One example includes a cold water line and a hot water line and an end use fixture in fluid flowing relation with the cold and hot water lines and configured to control water flow therefrom. This example also includes a water heater having an intake or inlet in fluid flowing relation to the cold water line and an outlet in fluid flowing relation to the hot water line. The example includes an automatic hot water recovery apparatus positioned in fluid flowing relation to the cold water line proximate to the water heater, the automatic hot water recovery apparatus configured to draw hot water back into the water heater from the hot water line subsequent to hot water usage at the end use fixture.

摘要： A traction device for wheels focusing on irrigation system wheels and the manufacturing process for making the traction device. Multiple traction device segments are joined to encompass a tire/wheel unit of an irrigation system tire/wheel drive system generally about the circumferential perimeter. The traction device segments are engaged by the tire/wheel unit at its circumferential perimeter causing the traction device segments to rotate as the tire/wheel unit rotates. The traction device segments have a surface which is interposed between the tire/wheel unit, at its circumferential perimeter, and the muddy ground of the irrigated field increasing the surface area of contact and decreasing the likelihood of the tire/wheel unit becoming stuck or mired in mud. A square of sheet metal is sheared at the corners along one diagonal with the two shear line forming the skirt edges of skirts. A pad is intermediate the skirts which is press formed with tread forms matching tread patterns of the tire/wheel unit. Contact between the skirt and the tire/wheel unit is reduced by press forming the skirt with a skirt form protruding toward the tire/wheel unit and rolling the skirt edge with a skirt radius. Adjoining traction device segments are connected by lugs having apertures, formed in the sheet metal by press forming or separately welded to the respective traction device segments, which align and are bolted together permitting movement between the lugs.
