Abstract: A composite package comprising a paperboard container and a preformed receptacle positioned within the container. The receptacle includes vertical front, rear, first and second side walls, and a top wall extending across the vertical walls. A pouring spout and a handle are formed on the top wall, the pouring spout being adjacent the front wall and the handle extending between the pouring spout and the rear wall. The paperboard container includes front, rear and first and second side walls adjacent the front, rear and first and second side walls of the receptacle respectively. Each wall of the paperboard container has two end-portions separated by a mid-portion. The paperboard container also includes a top flap assembly having first and second side flaps connected to and folded substantially perpendicular to the first and second side walls, two front flaps, each front flap connected to an end-portion of the front wall, and two rear flaps, each rear flap connected to an end-portion of the rear wall.

Abstract: A method of forming a vehicle axle assembly including the steps of coaxially welding a spider having a through opening to a tubular spacer to define a subassembly having a through bore, removing material formed by the welding operation from within the bore, installing the subassembly on an axle beam, and concurrently welding an end of the axle beam and spacer to a spindle.

Abstract: An implement for a tractor is provided with a height adjusting mechanism, including a control lever swingable in a horizontal plane about a fixed vertical axis and operably coupled with an articulate linkage for translating the horizontal swinging of the lever to vertical movement of the implement without creating a force moment thereacross. The articulate linkage spans a pivotal coupling between the main frame of the implement and a mounting bracket secured to the tractor such that the linkage operates to swing the bracket and frame toward and away from one another causing the pivotal coupling to move up and down. A belt drive on the implement is maintained in constant, substantially uniform tension by a shiftable idler pulley operably coupled with the control lever for automatic belt-tension adjustment in response to raising and lowering of the implement.
