Abstract: The compressor head, internal and/or external discriminator, and manifold design in general utilize ball valves on the suction and discharge of a cylinder head in the recovery of refrigerant liquid and/or vapor. The device facilitates the flashing of liquid refrigerant pumped to the compressor which, in turn, assists to cool the compressor head. The flashing of liquid refrigerant to vapor also deters liquid transfer into the compressor enhancing performance thereof. The vapor passages within the discriminator, cylinder head and/or manifold are sized for receipt of spring actuated ball's to open and/or close the vapor passages during suction and/or discharge of refrigerant vapor or liquid by the compressor.

Abstract: A low cost, compact, lightweight gambrel is disclosed. The gambrel can have a coupler, a cable, a spreader bar, and six swage sleeves. The coupler can be affixed to a limb of a tree or any other point that is semi rigid and to a loop of the gambrel formed by folding the cable over on to itself and threading the cable through an oval swage sleeve. During a swaging process, a hammer or a press can crimp the swage sleeve such that the sleeve secures the cable. Two holes can be fabricated proximate to the ends of a spreader bar and the cable can be inserted into another swage sleeve and into the holes of the spreader bar. Two more swage sleeves can be swaged on the cable on the bottom side of the spreader bar to hold the spreader bar in place. Two nooses can be formed on the ends of the cable. The nooses can be formed from loops at the end of cable by folding the cable and crimping swage sleeves to form the loop.
