Abstract: A flow control baffle for a turf mower having a plurality of mower blades carried within a mower deck. The flow control baffle includes a foot wall section which extends from near a side discharge opening into the cutting chamber. The foot wall may be curved and may be movable to define a volute section of variable width. In one embodiment, the flow control baffle includes a panel wall and a foot wall, which are connected together and movable relative to other portions of the mower deck. In one embodiment, the flow control baffle is movable and selectively positioned within the cutting deck in order to optimize mower performance in view of location operating conditions. In one embodiment, the air flow control baffle defines sacrificial wear surfaces within the mower deck at locations of otherwise high wear.

Abstract: An antenna assembly for multiple band operation of a wireless communications devices such as cellphones. Embodiments of the present invention provides for operation over 824-960 MHz Cellphone and 1575 MHz GPS bands and 1710-2155 MHz. Coverage over the GPS frequency band is highly desirable for wireless communication devices such as cell phones, in order to provide location information. Radiating conducting elements can be positioned in close proximity to an inverted PIFA-type antenna, requiring very little additional space or volume and allowing nearly the same form factor to be used for the antenna assembly. An illuminated panel may be positioned within an aperture of the ground plane. The panel may be back lit and activated in response to an external signal.

Abstract: A method of improving the rate of detection of attempts at fraud when a person passes through a controlled space based on the use of different sets of parameters issuing from at least two different sensor systems, some sets of parameters being based on correlations of measurements issuing from various sensor systems. Learning is carried out so as to characterize various types of fraud to permit identification of attempts at fraud by correlation between measurements obtained and characterizations of each type of fraud for each set of parameters.

Abstract: A hand-held trim painting tool consists of a cylindrical body holding paint to be dispensed in a reservoir within the cylindrical body, a head attached to the body, a removable paint applicator attached to the head, a mechanism for loading paint into the reservoir, a valve permitting paint to be dispensed from the reservoir, an actuator incrementally opening and closing the valve, and a dispensing rate adjuster to regulate the rate at which paint is dispensed.

Abstract: The present invention involves the creation of an appropriate model and the use of that model to generate a best fit dipole represented by a vector (x, y, z). Once the best fit dipole is generated, a best fit field distribution and a field distribution of a modified dipole is created. Using a difference between the field distributions, a Singular Value Decomposition is used to compute the main axes of the confidence ellipsoids.

Abstract: A safety locking device 18 for a quick hitch/coupler 10 of an earth working machine. The safety locking device 18 has a locking element 21 which is biased into a locking position to automatically lock a front pin of an implement when it is engaged in the hook 14 of the coupler 10. The safety locking device 18 has an hydraulic operable mechanism to move the locking element 21 to an unlocking position. The hydraulic supply to the safety locking device 18 is independent of the hydraulic supply to a locking mechanism 16 of the coupler 10.

Abstract: The invention is in a torque responsive actuation device, preferably for a belt drive system as is commonly utilized with snowmobile and like type vehicles. A bearing carrier of the invention is connected to a lower half of a split pulley, with the upper pulley half mounting a helix or cam cone that extends towards the carrier undersurface and includes a plurality of cam tracks formed therein that are each to receive a cam follower for travel therealong. Movement of the bearing carrier towards the top face of the pulley upper half is thereby translated to lower the pulley half to spread the pulley upper and lower halves apart, opening a V slot therebetween wherein a drive belt is maintained. A cylindrical shaft is journaled through the bearing carrier and fitted through the pulley that includes a coil spring disposed therearound for providing spring biasing to urge the bearing carrier away from the pulley upper half, biasing the pulley halves together.
