  • Patent number: 9896325
    Abstract: A vacuum vapor liquid recovery system employs a strong vacuum vessel that can withstand vacuums without damage. The vacuum vessel may be portable and configured to accept an inflow drain line for receiving waste liquid/vapors from a processing system. Additionally, at least one outflow drain line is attached to the vacuum vessel to which a vacuum truck or other similar recovery equipment can be connected in order to pump out whatever liquids/vapors have been drained into the vacuum vapor liquid recovery system. Additional features can include wheels to assist in moving and positioning the vacuum vapor liquid recovery system, tow bar, transport handles, support legs, sight port, a wash out connector, a vacuum relief, etc.

  • Publication number: 20120042568
    Abstract: A modular, expandable, growing season augmentation system is described. The system can employ multi-purpose, modular panels to create a free-standing, adjustable shelf system that can be enclosed via an adjustable cover. The shelf system is designed to hold a growth medium in which plants can be nurtured. The system is modular so that a given panel can be employed in numerous roles. Further, the system can be expanded or reduced in size by simply attaching or removing panels and cover components. The cover can be adjusted to minimize the wasted space above the top of the growing plants and can be removed as desired. The cover includes access ports allowing access to the plants therein. Manual or automatic vents can be incorporated in the cover. The cover is supported by an adjustable and removable support structure that can be configured to hold grow lights and/or heating elements.

  • Publication number: 20030217525
    Abstract: A stud-support frame for quick and easy installation of a window, particularly of a non-rectangular window, such as an oval, octagonal, or circular window. The stud-support frame has a shape and size that corresponds to that of the window. The frame is typically used together with a template that serves as a guide for cutting a window opening of a specific shape and size in a studded wall construction for receiving the stud-support frame and the window casing of the window. After the window opening is cut, the stud-support frame is inserted into the opening, fastened to the wall studs, and the window casing inserted into the frame. A finishing window trim is assembled around the window casing and covers the face of the stud-support frame that is on the face of the wall, thereby eliminating finish work on the wall around the window.
