  • Publication number: 20170096149
    Abstract: A railcar truck and adapter pad system for placement between a roller bearing and side frame pedestal roof of a three-piece railcar truck. Many different features of the pad and/or the adapter-pad interface are configured to improve stiffness characteristics to satisfy both curving and high speed performance of the railcar truck.

  • Patent number: 9591796
    Abstract: A walk aerator comprises a housing supported by a plurality of wheels that include a pair of drive wheels. The drive wheels are pivotally mounted to the housing to permit the housing to move between operational and transport positions thereof. A control is used to so move the housing with the control having a hand grip whose height above the ground is easily adjustable to accommodate users of different effective heights. A foot guard maintains a relatively constant disposition relative to the ground whether the housing is in its operational or transport position. The housing of the aerator has a vent system and an air gap relative to a prime mover deck which cool a traction drive system contained within the housing.

  • Publication number: 20170043226
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a golf tee holder for use during the play of golf. The holder can be comfortably carried in a shirt or pant pocket during play. The holder includes a housing having a top portion providing access to a hollow inner chamber, surrounding walls and a bottom portion. In a preferred embodiment, at least the top portion is flexible and resilient and includes a longitudinally oriented slit opening normally biased to a closed position allowing a golfer to add or remove golf tees by squeezing from the ends of the top to open and close the chamber.

  • Publication number: 20160221030
    Abstract: An improved system for application of liquid streams to a substrate. The system incorporates open face flow channels for carrying the liquid away from fully enclosed flow segments prior to discharge along an unconstrained flow path. The present invention further provides an improved, self-aligning modular assembly for delivery of impingement jet to the liquid streams for diverting the direction of the liquid streams. The present invention further provides an improved arrangement for collection of the deflected liquid in response to application of the impingement jet without excess residue build-up.
