Abstract: A trailer having a main deck portion having a main deck surface, an upper deck portion having an upper deck surface, a connecting frame assembly, a plurality of rollers elements, and a tailgate. The connecting frame assembly can couple together the main deck portion and the upper deck portion. The roller elements can be arranged in one or more rows and can be mounted in the main deck surface or the upper deck surface so as to cover a substantial portion of the main deck surface or the upper deck surface. The tailgate can be coupled to the main deck portion and can be movable between a closed position and an open position.

Abstract: A semi-trailer for use in hauling grain has four sides and two sloped cargo areas, each having a hopper funnel made of a continuous, unitary polymer material. A door below each hopper is driven by a linear actuator that is disposed above the level of the door. The trailer sidewalls are made of a composite material having inner and outer panels attached to a center panel by adhesive.

Abstract: A trailer for carrying plate glass has an elongated deck and an elongated rigid beam that extends above the deck. The beam supports plate glass transported by the trailer. The deck and the beam may be made from aluminum.

Abstract: A double-wide, drive in storage rack assembly for supporting loads on pallets including horizontal truss beams and stiffener panels at load-supporting levels constructed to increase the rigidity of the rack and/or minimize the amount of steel used in the rack. In some examples, the storage rack assembly includes mill-building bracing.

Abstract: A spacer for adjusting the width between rollers of roller tooling for machines operable to form metal products has an annular male member with lateral bosses and an annular female member having different depth pockets accommodating the bosses to adjust the combined width of the male and female members.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel organometallic complexes as catalysts for the reaction of compounds with isocyanate and hydroxyl functional groups to form urethane and/or polyurethane and the process employing such catalysts. More particularly, the present invention is directed to novel complexes of zinc(II) with substituted amidines. These novel catalysts are useful for the production of urethanes and polyurethanes which are important in many industrial applications.

Abstract: Described herein are metal amidine complexes in combination with a second compound useful as catalysts in a number of polymerization reactions, including polyurethane and epoxy polymerization reactions. Also described herein are various coating compositions and methods of using same for coating substrates using the metal amidine complexes in combination with a second compound.

Abstract: A saddle frame for a pneumatic bulk trailer includes first and second longitudinal saddle plates and at least one transverse support plate. Each of the saddle plates includes a front end, a rear end, an inner side, a generally arcuate upper edge, and a lower edge having at least three portions. Inwardly-directed edge flanges are formed at each portion of the lower edges. The transverse support plate extends between the inner sides of the saddle plates and is supported on an edge flange of each saddle plate. The upper edges of the saddle plates define support surfaces for engaging a pneumatic vessel of the pneumatic bulk trailer. The saddle plates are configured to be coupled to a front chassis frame and a rear chassis frame of the pneumatic bulk trailer.

Abstract: A dolly includes a frame having a load deck for supporting a load and a plurality of axles coupled to the frame in a generally parallel relationship with wheels rotationally coupled to each side of the axles. Independent drive motors are operatively connected to each of the wheels such that the wheels can be driven completely independently from each other. This independent rotation enables the dolly to rotate in place about a vertical axis as well as minimize a turning radius of the dolly in a skid steer operation.
