  • Patent number: 9457704
    Abstract: A loading and transport device for all terrain vehicles. The loading and transport device loads two ATVs into a pickup bed by the use of a folding track that folds into an A frame shape by use of a jack. The ATVs are attached to the frame, and are transported in a generally vertical position. Loading involves unfolding the ATV racks, one of which reaches the ground. A winch is used to pull ATVs from the ground onto the ATV racks, and to lower them to the ground again.

  • Patent number: 8260566
    Abstract: An apparatus and method relating to screening radioactive waste are disclosed for ensuring that at least one calculated parameter for the measurement data of a sample falls within a range between an upper limit and a lower limit prior to the sample being packaged for disposal. The apparatus includes a radiation detector configured for detecting radioactivity and radionuclide content of the of the sample of radioactive waste and generating measurement data in response thereto, and a collimator including at least one aperture to direct a field of view of the radiation detector. The method includes measuring a radioactive content of a sample, and calculating one or more parameters from the radioactive content of the sample.
