  • Patent number: 10113301
    Abstract: An arrangement for removable coupling of a tool with a working machine includes a first part with opposing indentions, which is supported by the tool, and a second part that is supported by a maneuverable arm, which includes shafts to be introduced into the indentations, a lever with which the shafts can be moved away from each other, and a locking mechanism for the displacement of the shafts. One of the shafts is united at a joint with a first arm section, and another shaft is united at a joint with a second arm section. The arrangement also includes at least one knee lever joints, one of which demonstrates two levers united with the shafts.

  • Patent number: 7040437
    Abstract: An engine air intake system for vehicles such as snowmobiles. The air intake system helps prevent airborne contaminants from entering the vehicle engine through the air intake. The intake includes an elongated channel with openings on either end that provides a throughway for contaminants entering the channel. A wall of the channel includes at least one aperture leading to an intake port on an engine cylinder. The intake port is positioned generally parallel to the direction of airflow through the channel.

  • Patent number: 6158215
    Abstract: A variable exhaust resonance chamber valve system for internal combustion engine. The engine includes a cylinder having an exhaust port with an axial extent along the axis of the cylinder structure. An exhaust passage having a resonance port extends from the exhaust port to exhaust the engine. A resonance chamber extends from the resonance port and communicates with the exhaust passage through the resonance port. A port valve is adjustable between a second position, in which the port valve exposes the exhaust port throughout its axial extent and occludes the resonance port, and a first position, in which the port valve restricts the axial extent of the exhaust port and exposes the resonance port. A valve control module is connected to the port valve and functions to adjust the port valve between first and second positions in response to engine conditions. At low speeds and low output conditions, the valve is in its first position.
