Abstract: The apparatus includes a reaction chamber which in operation uses an organic fuel input, typically in the form of substantially uniform-sized pellets, to produce a tar-free fuel gas. Prior to initiating operation, the lower end of the reaction chamber is filled with a charge of charcoal, forming a charcoal bed. A portion of the charcoal bed is then ignited, typically near the top, with air from the atmosphere being drawn substantially uniformly down through the reaction chamber by a pump on the outlet line leading from the reaction chamber, creating a thin pyrolysis zone near the top of the charcoal bed. The substantially uniform-size fuel pellets are added to the top of the charcoal bed, and are pyrolized as they move down through the pyrolysis zone. Since the fuel pellets are substantially uniform in size, and since the air-flow down through the chamber is substantially uniform, the temperature profile over the cross-sectional area of the pyrolysis zone is substantially uniform, and a homogeneous pyrolysis zone is created, without hot spots or channels. Such an arrangement results in self-regulating, self-sustaining operation over a relatively wide demand range, with rapid start-up and response characteristics. Air may also be directed into the reaction chamber through an inlet beneath the charcoal bed, which results in the reaction of the devolatilized charcoal to form additional fuel and an ash residue. Thus, the production and consumption of the charcoal within the apparatus may be exactly balanced.

Abstract: A base frame supports pairs of parallel compressing arms having a pivoted depending support on an upper extension. These arms are operated between open and bale forming positions by fluid operated cylinders. An article holding cartridge has upstanding ribs arranged to confine articles therebetween for baling. The ribs are spaced such that upon moving the loaded cartridge into place on a cross conveyor, the compressing arms thread through the ribs and compress the articles. The upper extension has powered lifting and lowering means for operation of the compressing arms in a baling sequence and also to open the arms rearwardly for ejecting the bale. Upper straps are associated with the compressing arms to compress the top portion of the bale, and banding mechanism is supported on the frame for applying bands around the bale. The base frame is supported on a wheeled chassis and has longitudinal adjustment on the chassis for positioning between a rear baling position and a forward road traveling position.

Abstract: An improved machinery mount for supporting a load on a substructure such as a building floor, having a support member engagable with at least a portion of said load, and a bearing member disposed beneath said support member and spaced therefrom. A damper disposed between the bearing member and the substructure includes a plurality of compressible resilient members and at least one rigid member interposed between the resilient members, the uppermost resilient member disposed adjacent the bearing member and the lowermost resilient member disposed adjacent the substructure. The resilient members, being preferably rubber or plastic, are bonded to the adjacent rigid member, preferably being a metal. Preferably, the damper is secured to the bearing member, and the bearing member is secured to the support member, the three components thereby forming an integral unit.

Abstract: A cutter vehicle is arranged to be moved along a row of trees by a powdered drive vehicle. A boom assembly is secured between the cutter vehicle and the drive vehicle and has relatively movable parts which can extend and retract to vary the longitudinal length of the boom assembly. The cutter vehicle has a powered cutter arranged to cut a tree off adjacent the ground. The mechanism has controls capable of actuating the power cutter substantially simultaneously with release of the power for the boom assembly whereby the movable parts of the boom assembly can have free relative movement to allow the powered drive vehicle to advance while the cutter vehicle has stopped momentarily to cut a tree, this providing an arrangement which allows a drive vehicle to maintain a steady advancing movement even though the cutter vehicle has stopped to cut a tree. The boom assembly has pivot support which provides lateral positioning of the cutter vehicle to bypass a tree if desired. The cutter vehicle has a main frame which supports a vertically adjustable secondary frame having a lowered position for cutting a tree off adjacent the ground and a raised position for movement over the stump.
