Abstract: A double pass, double conveyor broiler apparatus and method for efficiently cooking large numbers of relatively large hamburger patties is disclosed. The apparatus includes two burners and two conveyors, with one conveyor conveying patties past one burner for cooking one side of the patties and flipping over the partially cooked patties, and with the other conveyor conveying the patties past the other burner for cooking the other side. The patties on the second conveyor are sandwiched between the belts of the two conveyors, which flattens the patties to counteract the tendency of large patties to swell at the center and curl at the edges.

Abstract: A linkage of the disclosure is utilized with a vehicle independent suspension system to indicate whether a wheel supported by the system has a proper camber angle. The linkage includes a first linkage portion extending between a control arm of the suspension system and a wheel supporting member so that the angular relationship therebetween is sensed. A second linkage portion extends between the control arm and the sprung mass of the vehicle so that the angular relationship therebetween is also sensed. The angular relationships sensed by the two linkage portions are compared so as to determine whether the wheel supporting member is angularly oriented so that the wheel supported thereby has a proper camber angle. Each linkage portion preferably includes a push-pull link and a lever pivoted to each other. Connections of the linkage components are at predetermined locations so that the levers are pivotally positioned with respect to each other at a predetermined angle when the wheel camber angle is proper.

Abstract: A wheel camber adjustment linkage of the disclosure is utilized with a vehicle independent suspension system to sense and correct an improper wheel camber angle condition. The linkage includes first and second portions associated with a suspension control arm on which an adjustable joint is mounted. The first linkage portion senses the angular relationship between the control arm and a wheel supporting member mounted on the control arm by the adjustable joint. The second linkage portion senses the angular relationship between the control arm and the sprung mass of the vehicle. The angular relationships sensed by the two linkage portions are compared so as to determine whether adjustment of the joint is necessary to correct the wheel camber angle. If correction is required, the angular linkage movement during suspension jounce provides the impetus for the adjustment. Each linkage portion preferably includes a push-pull link and a lever pivoted to each other.
