  • Patent number: 5368277
    Abstract: The present application discloses a fence post remover for use in connection with a "T"-shaped post. A bracket engages the edge of the web of the fence post. A clevice is placed over the fence post and around the "T"-shape of the fence post until it engages the front face, the seam, or the teeth of the fence post. A "U"-shaped brace is attached to a corner of the bracket to engage the web of the fence post. The clevice and the bracket are pinned together. A ring is provided to receive the pulling force such that when the ring is pulled upwardly, the portion of the clevice proximate to the face of the fence post is pulled inwardly toward the fence post while at the same time the "U"-shaped brace is also pulled toward the fence post thereby taking advantage of the pulling force to provide a better grip on the fence post.

  • Patent number: 5025616
    Abstract: A second hayrake hitch for use with a tractor is disclosed. The hayrake hitch includes a generally U-shaped main frame of size and height to overfit a forward hayrake which is directly connected to the tractor. The main frame includes a main beam and a wheeled rear support bar which is pivotally interconnected relative to the main beam. A second hayrake is connected to a hitch bar secured to the rear support bar to enable the tractor to simultaneously pull the two hayrakes. A hydraulic cylinder extends between the rear support bar and a leg connected to the main beam and hydraulic lines interconnect the cylinder with the hydraulic coupling of the tractor. By hydraulically functioning the cylinder while the tractor is moving, the rear support bar can be pivoted relative to the axis of the main beam to thereby move the rear hayrake to the right or to the left relative to the front hayrake to simultaneously rake two hay windrows or one large combined windrow.
