Patent number: 6745502Abstract: A rubber tired railway plow (100) has a plow unit (102) mounted to a plate (111) which extends across the forward end of the rubber tired vehicle (100). The plow unit (102) is attached so as to be movable on the plate (111). Wedges (122, 123) are used to maintain the plow unit (102) in position on the plate (111). When the wedges (122, 123) are removed, the plow unit (102) is movable on the plate (111) from one side of the vehicle (100) to the opposite side thereby to be able to plow on either side of the rails (141).Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2000Date of Patent: June 8, 2004Assignee: Ledcor IP Holdings Ltd.Inventors: Lionel Charles Desmarais, Andrew Smith Jackson, Bernie A.

Patent number: 6553693Abstract: A snowblower apparatus and a method of using the snowblower. The snowblower apparatus is self contained and portable and may be mounted on a prime mover. A turbine engine is located within a housing and discharges its exhaust to the desired area of snow or ice removal. The housing is rotatable and tiltable about orthogonal axes so as to allow the operator to direct the discharge nozzle to a desired location. A fuel tank may be mounted separately from the housing and turbine engine. An afterburner may be used to increase the exhaust temperature thereby to remove ice and otherwise dry the desired location.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2000Date of Patent: April 29, 2003Assignee: 360fiber ltd.Inventors: Lionel Charles Desmarais, Andrew Smith Jackson, Bernie A.

Patent number: 6481510Abstract: A directional drill for transport via rail tracks and railwheels associated with the directional drill to an operating location. The directional drill has a first frame associated with a set of pneumatic tires for movement of the directional drill onto and off of the tracks and, when removed from the tracks, for movement to the operating location. A second frame is rotatably attached to the first frame and allows the drilling configuration of the second frame to be more nearly horizontal relative to the first frame. Hydraulic lines move during drilling and are maintained in a predetermined configuration to reduce vibration and chaffing.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2000Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: 360fiber ltd,Inventors: Lionel Charles Desmarais, Bernie A.
