  • Multi-saddle rack
    Patent number: 7942277
    Abstract: A powered saddle rack can be mounted in a trailer tack room. A mounting rod rotates from a storage to a load/unload position. A working frame assembly further rotates to the load/unload position. Once in the load/unload position, a rack raising rod is lifted or lowered, thereby raising or lowering several saddle racks up and down. A portable version doesn't rotate.

  • LED printer
    Patent number: 4947195

A diffusion plate such as a ground glass plate is placed at the object plane of the lens array.
