Patent number: 4407343Abstract: Described herein is a vehicle-mounted tree harvesting machine. The tree harvesting machine includes a shear which cuts the trees and is arranged so that its cutting motion tends to direct the trees to fall by gravity into a bunching means in alignment with the shear. Once in the bunching means the cut trees are held there by a cantilevered bar. The harvesting vehicle then can move from cutting site to cutting site dragging the cut trees behind it. When the bunching means is full the cantilevered bar can be opened and the vehicle moved forward leaving the cut trees behind in a neat bunch.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 1982Date of Patent: October 4, 1983Assignee: The Buckeye Cellulose CorporationInventor: Harry E. Brown

Patent number: 4354486Abstract: Described herein is a drape for covering an overhead table. The drape includes a doubled flap connected to the underside of each of a first pair of juxtaposed stacks of panels made by folds around parallel fold lines, in turn shortened transversely from each end to form a second pair of stacks of panels. The folded drape is positioned adjacent a reference edge of the table to be draped, and transversely unfolded so that the fold lines of each stack of the first pair of stacks are parallel to the table edge. The reference edge is covered, preparatory to positioning of the table, by the doubled flap which is folded atop one of first pair of stacks. The edges other than the reference edge can then be draped by unfolding one of the stacks of panels to cover them. The flap is held in position hanging over the reference edge of the table by the weight of the unfolded stack of panels above the flap and by the rest of the drape.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 1980Date of Patent: October 19, 1982Assignee: The Buckeye Cellulose CorporationInventor: Don W. Oliver

Patent number: 4342392Abstract: Disclosed herein is a wrap for a sterile article. The wrap is a sheet which encases the article to be wrapped by means of at least two inward folds, forming panels atop the article to be shielded. One of these panels has attached to it a member which extends underneath the package from a point on the panel spaced from its inward fold line so that the article can be unwrapped by reaching under the wrapped article and grabbing the member. By pulling the member towards the user with the package oriented with the panel that is attached to the member away from the user, the package can be unwrapped without reaching over and contaminating the exposed sterile article.Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 1979Date of Patent: August 3, 1982Assignee: The Buckeye Cellulose CorporationInventor: Lloyd A. Cox

Patent number: 4326300Abstract: A belt package for a surgical gown is disclosed in which a belt is fan-folded within a tubular belt support and one belt end is folded over and temporarily attached to the front of the belt support. The folded over belt end includes a line of weakness situated a short distance from the tip of the belt end to form a detachable portion useful in insuring sterility. The belt end is folded over by first folding the detachable portion against the rest of the belt end at a point on the belt near the weakened line but between the line and the point of exit of belt from the belt support. The detachable portion is then folded against the belt support face by a fold in the belt near the point of exit from the belt support. The end is temporarily attached to the belt support at point between the line of weakness and the first fold.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 1979Date of Patent: April 27, 1982Assignee: The Buckeye Cellulose CorporationInventors: Deborah A. Bolton, Jean E. Schaefer

Patent number: 4294876Abstract: A tufted material is disclosed having a primary tufting substrate made up of layers of molecularly oriented film. The layers are laminated together in a generally undisturbed condition so that at least two layers have directions of molecular orientation that are perpendicular. The layers are molecularly oriented to the point of splitting parallel to the direction of said molecular orientation under the tufting needles, allowing the needles to penetrate easily, securing the tufts in place, and resulting in good tuft registration.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 1980Date of Patent: October 13, 1981Assignee: The Buckeye Cellulose CorporationInventors: James B. Camden, Kenneth D. Vinson
