Abstract: An apparatus for molding and packaging molded tobacco pieces includes a mold having cavities oriented to allow ejection of molded tobacco pieces into a container. The apparatus also includes a knockout for ejecting the molded tobacco pieces, and a cutter having at least two blades for cutting the molded tobacco pieces into vertically aligned slices by passing one or more blades horizontally through the cavities.

Abstract: A holder of product identification indicia incorporated with a specifically printed illuminated sign in a beverage vending machinc. The holder allows enhanced product identification relating to a separate, existing selection button panel. The holder is securely attached to the back of the illuminated sign that has clear viewing windows registered to the holder. Specifically, it is intended as a retrofit kit for existing beverage vending machines to allow the display of product contained in the machine by use of significantly larger product identification indicia than the existing product identification indicia. The larger display windows may be specifically correlated to the existing selection mechanisms, by way of numbers, letters, symbols, connecting lines and/or colors.

Abstract: Relates to a protective guard or shield for covering the wear area of the moldboard of a plow. The shin member of the plow assembly is provided with an integrally connected rearward extension which overlies the most serious wear area of the moldboard. The shin extension is not bolted or otherwise fastened to the moldboard but relies on a shoulder formed on the back side of the shin for engagement with the leading edge of the moldboard and the provision of a plurality of spaced apart projections on the face of the extension confronting the moldboard for bearing support thereon. The shin and its extension may be used to cover the worn area of a used moldboard or to protect such area of a new moldboard. In the latter case the projections may be ground down to provide surface contact between the shin extension and the moldboard. The shin and its extension are preferably formed of a stainless steel alloy and cast in one piece.
