  • Patent number: 7384234
    Abstract: A system for mounting a fan shroud to a radiator assembly comprises a fan shroud having a general profile defining at least one fan shroud slot aligned along a first axis. A fan shroud mount is carried by the radiator assembly. The fan shroud mount has a general profile defining at least one fan shroud mount slot aligned along a second axis which is perpendicular to the first axis of the fan shroud slot. A cage nut is utilized for mounting the fan shroud with the fan shroud mount. The fan shroud slot and the fan shroud mount slot are designed for overlapping orientation. This overlapping orientation enables the fan shroud fastener to be simultaneously received within the fan shroud slot and the fan shroud mount slot. In operation, the fan shroud fastener may move along either the first axis or the second axis for positioning the fan shroud at a desired horizontal and vertical location with respect to the radiator assembly.

  • Patent number: 5971294
    Abstract: A spray system is provided with improved spray control having decreased injection lag, and reducing non-uniformity in injection lag throughout the length of a spray boom. A pump is coupled to spray nozzles installed along the spray boom by manifolds which divide the spray boom into a predetermined number of zones. Each zone has a respective boom manifold, and each boom manifold is coupled through equal length line to the spray nozzles. The size of lines coupling the pump to the boom manifolds varies with position along the spray boom and restricting orifices are used in some of the connecting lines. Application systems constructed according to principles of the present invention respond quicker to changes in pump operating points than conventional systems and variability of injection lag along the length of the spray boom is virtually eliminated with the present invention.
