Abstract: A material processing vibrating screen with diverting systems configured to deliver material, via a plurality of material diverters, to locations closer to a feed end of the screen than would otherwise be done in the absence of the diverters. The diverters can be fixed to a cross member, the underside of a screen, and may be adjustable and easily replaceable. The materials for the deflectors can vary depending upon the material being screened. The screen may also be a variable sloped vibrating screen.

Abstract: A system for controlling one or more aggregate processing plants which utilizes a common control module disposed on each plant, where the module is produced to be functionally identical to, interchangeable with and replaceable by the same model of the model from the same manufacture. When several plants are configured to be controlled by the common control module, and the modules are interconnected by a canbus, then each module can be used to control the entire system of plants and individual other plants in the system without the need for any central control hub and spoke control lines extending directly to each of the plants. The system can be easily (with activation of just one button) set up to allow for common control of the various plants.

Abstract: A support structure for vibrating screening machine with either a flat screen deck or a crowned screen deck which use a coped and then capped variation of the same prefabricated rectangular tubular cross-member but in rotated orientations. The machine further providing support for a crowned screen media without using a crowned cross-member by providing stringers with differing vertical heights with the centermost stringer having the most height above a flat top cross-member.

Abstract: Cone crushers with differing main bearing styles therein being manufactured with interchangeable parts and with a common exterior configuration so that a roller bearing cone crusher could be replaced at a crushing site by a plain bearing cone crusher without the need for any modification to either the plain bearing crusher or the crushing site. Methods of manufacturing roller bearing cone crushers which have components therein which are interchangeable with components in a plain bearing cone crusher is also disclosed.

Abstract: A mobile variable angle vibrating screen with the ability to process aggregate material in a horizontal orientation and at incrementally higher angles of inclination where changes in angles of inclination can be affected without the need to dismantle the vibrating screen and without the use of hand tools. The variable angle screen being configured: to blend output at all of the various operating angles of inclination, be transportable with a detachable bolt on feeder module; have an overhead feed conveyor which operates at a substantially horizontal configuration and at various operating angles of inclination.

Abstract: A material processing vibrating screen with diverting systems configured to deliver material, via a plurality of material diverters, to locations closer to a feed end of the screen than would otherwise be done in the absence of the diverters. The diverters can be fixed to a cross member, the underside of a screen, and may be adjustable and easily replaceable. The materials for the deflectors can vary depending upon the material being screened. The screen may be also be a variable sloped vibrating screen.

Abstract: A bifurcatable mobile rock crusher and method of transporting the same comprising providing a first segment which is separately towable on the highway and providing a second segment which is separately towable on the highway, where each segment is configured to be combined into one unit and towed as a unit on the highway.

Abstract: Disclosed is a vibrating material sorting screen with a substantially variable tilt angle and a tilt angle measuring device where the screen has a gear box which is horizontal when the screen is horizontal and inclined when the screen is inclined and further where the gear box has a plurality of oil level sensors or indicators therein which are sized, placed and configured to provide proper oil volume while the screen is oriented horizontally or at various inclines.

Abstract: A system and method for boring a hole in rock with a digger derrick; which utilizes a hollow stem auger, a kelly bar, and a core barrel with a top support member with a hole therein for receiving the kelly bar with a detachable central pilot bit thereon which is translatable up and down with respect to the core barrel as the kelly bar and auger are manipulated. The kelly bar is selectively positionable with respect to the auger so as to allow the ability to retract the pilot bit inward into the core barrel and to shorten the separation between the pilot bit and the auger.

Abstract: A boom truck with splayed forward stabilizers which permits loads to be lifted over the front of the vehicle without a central front jack and further having a pair of rear stabilizers which are separated from the splayed forward stabilizers along a substantial length of and near the rear end of the vehicle frame. The boom truck being made in a process where the attachment of the rear stabilizers is done in a separate and distinct process from the attachment of the splayed forward stabilizers.

Abstract: A concrete paver comprising a workbridge, which moves along a path to be paved. A carriage mounted on and reciprocating along a longitudinal axis of the workbridge, which is orthogonal to the path to be paved. A plurality of electrical lights disposed on and illuminating a surface which is fixed relative to the carriage, but variable or moving with respect to the workbridge. The electrical lights providing a substantially constant illumination to workers who work with the concrete surface as the carriage moves along the workbridge.

Abstract: A concrete paver system with a reconfigurable hydration system which utilizes a plurality of individually flow controllable spray nozzles, which are clamped on support structures, which also support objects being dragged across a top surface of concrete which is being finished. The plurality of flow controllable spray nozzles being configured to be moved about said hydration system so as to change a pattern of water vapor application, all without the use of tools.
