Patent number: 9863101Abstract: A highly portable asphalt plant of substantial size and product manufacturing capacity carries the system components on the confines of two transportable vehicles. The two vehicles are arranged in a fashion whereby vehicle one is connected to vehicle two in an inline continuous fashion. Vehicle two contains an integrated inertial dust separator baghouse design and provides for the receiving of the rotary dryer drum mixer directly and without the use, of interconnecting ductwork.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2016Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Inventors: Joseph T Mollick, Willam D. Gulley, Thomas F Gebhard

Patent number: 9689611Abstract: A locking cam stop conducts rotation from a driving part, such as a tire ring, to a driven part, such as a rotary dryer or kiln. The device utilizes clamping cams with logarithmic profiles to secure the tire ring without welding or direct attachment, only frictional force. The cams provide immediate, powerful holding force in the desired direction, while allowing free counter-rotation when necessary. The device utilizes a tension link to maintain sufficient contact with the tire ring, ensuring that the cams will engage and hold the tire ring when necessary.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2015Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: GENCOR INDUSTRIES, INC.Inventors: Joseph T. Mollick, William D. Gulley

Patent number: 7524186Abstract: A low emissions burner includes a diffusion burner surrounded by an annular array of premix burners. The diffusion burner operates at maximum swirl air flow and at a low constant fuel rate to reduce NOx emissions. The diffusion burner provides a stable swirling diffusion flame. An annular array of premix burners surrounds the diffusion burner and provides a non-swirling premix flame about the diffusion flame to advantageously provide a higher heat content about the periphery of the burner flame to facilitate industrial drying processes using the burner. The diffusion burner flame maintains the premixed flame stabilized. Water injection nozzles are provided each of the premix and diffusion burners.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2003Date of Patent: April 28, 2009Assignee: Gencor Industries, Inc.Inventors: David F. Brashears, Grover T. Butler, Joseph T. Mollick

Patent number: 4515090Abstract: A solid fuel burner apparatus is provided having a combustion chamber surrounded by a housing and having a solid fuel and primary air nozzle attached to the combustion chamber and located in the housing for directing pulverized solid fuel and air into the combustion chamber. A solid fuel and primary air input is connected through the housing to the solid fuel and primary air nozzle for directing solid fuel thereinto. A secondary air input is connected to the housing for directing air under pressure into the housing and from the housing into the combustion chamber. The housing is divided between first and second compartments and a proportioning damper system divides the input secondary air between the first and second compartments of the housing. Dampers are used to proportion secondary air between first and second compartments from an inlet plenum and diffusion vanes direct the primary and solid fuel into the combustion chamber with a predetermined pattern to control the flame.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1983Date of Patent: May 7, 1985Assignee: Mechtron International Corp.Inventors: David F. Brashears, Joseph T. Mollick

Patent number: 4492171Abstract: A solid fuel burner apparatus is provided for burning low density, low mass fibrous fuels such as paper waste and biomass. The burner includes a combustion chamber having a solid fuel and primary air nozzle attached to one end thereof for directing pulverized solid fuel and air into the combustion chamber. The solid fuel and primary air nozzle has a spinning mechanism for spinning the solid fuel and air into the combustion chamber in one direction of rotation. A secondary air input is provided for feeding secondary air into the combustion chamber and includes means to spin the secondary air from the secondary air input into the combustion chamber in a direction opposite in rotation to the direction of rotation of the solid fuel and primary air. A gas fuel input has a flame disk and is positioned to feed gas into the combustion chamber in the center portion of the solid fuel and primary air nozzle to create additional stability in the combustion of the solid fuel in the combustion chamber.Type: GrantFiled: December 12, 1983Date of Patent: January 8, 1985Inventors: David F. Brashears, Joseph T. Mollick
