Abstract: A tie down resistive to strong winds for lightweight but bulky equipment. The tie down includes anchors driven into the ground which hold cables that in turn are attached to the base of the equipment.
Abstract: A signal to warn of the open condition of a sub-grade vault whose lid may be open or missing. A spring-loaded placard is held down in the vault by a closed lid and raises above the opening by its own stored energy when the lid is open or missing.
Abstract: A system to restrict and remove debris and pollutants from runoff water received from surrounding areas. A receptacle receives the runoff water, and a grate detains the heavier part of its solids burden. A first screen within the receptacle detains solids of lesser size. Water passed by the first screen encounters a tubular second screen in the receptacle which passes water that was additionally screened by it and sends it to a downstream system. A weir at a sensitive level in the receptacle can by-pass the second screen. The second screen is preferably rotatable.
Abstract: A subgrade vault to provide an enclosed housing for utility connections. The housing is made of a moldable material with a reinforcing skirt at one end and a seat in the other. A lid is received in the seat to close its upper end. A clip is optionally provided for fastening the lid to the housing body that can be clipped on the body and engaged by a fastener carried by the lid.
