  • Patent number: 4981407
    Abstract: A bale transporter and feeder is used for loading, transporting and feeding large bales of hay. This transporter and feeder includes a frame which is adapted to be connected to a prime mover and which forms a horizontal support bed, which will at least partially support a hay bale on end during transport and feeding. A lift is pivotally supported on the frame and rotatable substantially 90.degree. about a horizontal axis at approximately the same height as the horizontal support bed. This lift is adapted to engage a hay bale on the ground in a lowered position and is rotatable to a raised position. In the raised position the bale is supported on end of the support bed and the lift, and can be left in place for feeding cattle after the frame has been moved to a feeding area. An actuator is supported on the frame to move the lift between the lowered and raised positions.

  • Patent number: 4940096
    Abstract: A three point hitch mounted on the rear of a pick up truck has a pair of lift draft arms connected to a hay bale carrier. Pivot connections having upright pivot pins attach the lift draft arms to a transverse shaft allowing the lift draft arms to be folded adjacent each other below the rear bumper of the truck. Crank arms secured to opposite end of the shaft are connected to hydraulic piston and cylinder assemblies. The piston and cylinder assemblies are operable to rotate the shaft to selectively raise and lower the lift draft arms and bale carrier mounted thereon.

  • Patent number: 4846141
    Abstract: A sight for archery bows including an elongate sight pin carrier having a guideway in which are adjustably carried a number of sight pin holders. The pin holders are of cruciform shape with a sight pin in threaded engagement therewith for lateral sight pin adjustment. A locking screw secures each pin holder to the pin carrier. For sighting in the sight, the pin carrier is tiltable in a vertical plane in one form of the sight to vary the viewed or apparent distance between the sight pins while in a second form of the invention, the pin carrier is slidably mounted on a bow mounted base. The base may define elongate intersecting slots for base and sight positioning along two courses.

  • Patent number: 4302887
    Abstract: A veneer block moisturizing vault which has a single upright openable end which is closeable and exposeable through vertical shifting of a rigid unitary door. The lateral margins of the door are received in confronting channels, which, together with the door's margins, provide an effective lateral moisture barrier inhibiting the escape of steam from the vault when its door is closed. With the door closed, the bottom edge of the same rests snugly upon a specially prepared cement apron--also to effect a steam-capturing moisture barrier. Moisturizing in the vault is accomplished through the controlled blending and injection thereinto of steam and cold water.
