Abstract: A drive transmission has two counter-rotating cams bearing-mounted within a housing about a rotational axis. The counter-rotating cams have asymmetrical lobe profiles which are operative to drive a corresponding pair of coaxial drive shafts in opposite directions along the rotational axis. The asymmetry of the lobe profiles prevents the cams from locking when the lobe apexes pass the top and bottom dead center positions relative to the follower or drive pins.

Abstract: A device and method for monitoring exercise performance and configured to be worn on a limb of a user. The device includes a position determining module configured to generate position data for a present exercise session of the user utilizing one or more signals; a motion sensor configured to detect motion of the device and generate motion data; and a processor. The processor is operable to calculate at least one of speed, pace, and distance of the device; calculate a limb motion of the user to obtain limb motion data throughout the present exercise session; determine whether an inaccurate interval is present during the present exercise session; obtain a matching interval; and replace at least one of the speed, pace, and distance data during the inaccurate interval with a corresponding at least one of speed, pace, and distance data of the matching interval.

Abstract: A torque drive transmission, having at least two counter-rotating cams bearing-mounted within a housing about a rotational axis. The counter-rotating cams are operative to: (i) convert a linear input to a rotary output, and (ii) drive a pair of coaxial drive shafts in opposite directions along the rotational axis. Furthermore, each counter-rotating cam defines a cam profile surface having drive and follower surfaces defining angles ? and ? respectively. The angles ? and ? are unequal to drive each cam and respective output drive shaft in an opposite rotational direction. As such, the cams may be driven in opposite directions irrespective the initial rotational position of the linear input, i.e., relative to each counter-rotating cam.

Abstract: A cargo carrier has a frame, a wheel assembly coupled to the frame, and a quick release assembly. The quick release assembly allows the user to quickly raise and lower the wheel assembly with respect to the frame, or to turn an adjusting screw to more finely raise and lower the wheel assembly. In addition, a vehicle hitch mount has an outer tube and an inner tube slidably received in the outer tube. The inner tube has a retracted position in which the inner tube is retracted with respect to the outer tube, and an extended position in which the inner tube is extended with respect to the outer tube. A locking pin can be operated by the user at one side of the cargo carrier to removably lock the hitch mount to the vehicle hitch located at an opposite side of the cargo carrier.

Abstract: A log/tree chipper having an infeed with a roller member, such as a sprocket or pulley, guides a chain has at least one lug in the roller member, such lug extending above the outer surface of the chain and above a feed table. One or more auxiliary feed members with lugs can rotate with and along the same axis of rotation of the roller member and be spaced to one side of a roller member. The auxiliary feed member can be positioned at the material exit end of a feed table, or at both ends of a feed table. Lugs on the auxiliary feed members and/or the roller members/sprockets are, in some embodiments, positioned at the material exit end of the feed table work so as to work in a symbiotic relationship with the main feed roller.

Abstract: A feed system that is configured to more effectively grab and pull brush and tree materials into a chipper is provided. The system of the present disclosure is configured such that a large, heavy tree trunk can be effectively pulled into the chipper. The system includes a hydraulic pump that applies variable down pressure on a feed roller.

Abstract: A feed system that is configured to more effectively grab and pull brush and tree materials into a chipper is provided. The system of the present disclosure is configured such that a large, heavy tree trunk can be continuously pulled into the chipper. The system includes two feed rollers one above the other in an offset arrangement.

Abstract: An infeed chute that is configured to more effectively and safely guide brush into a chipper is provided. The infeed chute is configured to guide brush upwards, thereby minimizing the occurrence of branches inadvertently catching the bottom edge of the chute. The infeed chute is also configured so that operators can conveniently load the chipper while being along a side of the chipper.

Abstract: A log and/or tree chipper has an individual feed chain tension system for multiple chains. A mechanism is provided for quick and easy independent adjustment for differences in chain length. Therefore, if a tail pulley is damaged, one section can be repaired while not requiring all of the drag chains to be split and the whole tail pulley removed. To keep the adjustment from moving out of adjustment after the adjusting step, a push bolt lock slips over adjusting bolts and the push bolt lock can be held in place with lynch pins.

Abstract: The chipper drum of the present disclosure is configured to maximize its cutting width while decreasing its overall size. In particular, the chipper drum of the present disclosure includes air deflectors recessed on the ends of the drum that are configured to generate the air flow necessary to blow chips out of the chipper.

Abstract: A control mechanism for the feed of a brush chipper is disclosed. A lower feed stop bar, located under a feed table, pivots on a pivot axis located below and toward the brush chipper from the control bar of the lower feed stop bar. The center of gravity of the lower feed stop bar, then, tends to pivot the lower feed stop bar away from the feed disengage position. Hence, nuisance trips due to vibration, impact of brush on the table, etc., are reduced.
