Patents by Inventor Joel Karsten

Joel Karsten has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11926448
    Abstract: A system of attachable walls includes first and second walls. Each such wall includes a first side having a base surface and a repeatable pattern. The repeatable pattern includes first, second, third, and fourth lateral segments. The second lateral segment includes a resilient first flange extending outward and a flexible finger extending outward. The flexible finger has a first side facing the resilient first flange, a second side, opposite the first, facing away from the resilient first flange and toward the first lateral segment, a first mating component positioned on the second side of the flexible finger, and a receptacle formed between the resilient first flange and the flexible finger. The fourth lateral segment includes a second flange extending away from the base surface of the first side. The second flange includes a second mating component positioned on a side of the second flange facing the third lateral segment.

  • Patent number: 10412878
    Abstract: An agricultural tillage implement including a first frame configured to be moved in a travel direction, at least one second frame coupled with the first frame, at least one rolling basket assembly coupled to the at least one second frame, at least one actuator pivotally connected to the at least one second frame, and a pressure control system operatively connected to the at least one rolling basket assembly. The pressure control system includes at least one sensor coupled to the at least one rolling basket assembly for sensing a load exerted on the at least one rolling basket assembly by a ground surface and providing a downward pressure measurement signal. The pressure control system also includes a controller in communication with the at least one sensor and configured to control the adjustable downward force applied by the at least one actuator.
