Abstract: A storm sewer drainage grate filter for above grade installation and use includes a frame and a screen supported by the frame. The frame may include a top ring, a bottom ring, and one or more intermediate rings. The rings may be interconnected by a plurality of risers. A method directed to fitting a storm sewer grate filter apparatus to a storm sewer opening includes installing an above grade grate filter having a frame and screen supported by the frame, allowing debris to accumulate on the exterior of the grate filter, and clearing the debris from the exterior of the grate filter.

Abstract: This disclosure relates in part to a hot extrusion press wherein the extrusion is cooled immediately after the extrusion operation by arranging a cooling tube including a cooling nozzle within the platen of the press and a second cooling nozzle between the platen and a water tank to which the extrusion is ultimately transferred for final cooling. The second cooling nozzle is employed to cool the extrusion and on the occasion of a cobbled extrusion, it is employed to drain the cooling tube and at the same time prevents water from flowing from the tank into the tube.

Abstract: A transducer control arrangement in a hydrostatic pipe testing machine or pipe tester, for preventing a change in the positioning of the pipe relative to a testhead seal as testing fluid is introduced into the pipe. A transducer signal activates at least one pump to operate a piston cylinder assembly connected to the testhead to reduce or eliminate any relative movement between the testhead seal and the pipe.
