  • Optical fiber distribution frame with outside plant enclosure
    Patent number: 7149398
    Abstract: A fiber optic telecommunications frame is provided including panels having front and rear termination locations, the panels positioned on left and right sides of the frame. The frame includes vertical access for the rear cables. The frame further includes left and right vertical cable guides for the front patch cables. The frame further includes cable storage spools for the patch cables. The frame includes a horizontal passage linking the left and right panels and the cable guides. A portion of the frame defines splice tray holders and a central passage from the splice tray holders to the rear sides of the left and right panels. From a front of each panel, access to a rear of the panel is provided by the hinged panels. Alternatively, the panels can form connector modules with front termination locations and rear connection locations for connecting to the rear cables. The modules can house couplers, such as splitters, combiners, and wave division multiplexers.

  • Prime mover actuated concrete curb extruder
    Patent number: 5173005
    Abstract: A continuous concrete curb forming apparatus is formed by a vertical open end sleeve-like hopper having a channel-like member connected with its depending opening forming the shape of a conventional concrete curb as wet concrete poured in the hopper is released from the channel member.The hopper is connected with one end of a rectangular frame mounted on the forward end of a tractor. Hydraulically operated cylinders on the apparatus are connected with the tractor hydraulic system and a sensing means responsive to the position of a horizontal guide strand defining the position of the concrete curb to be extruded are connected with the hydraulic system through servo-mechanisms for guiding the tractor and maintaining the hopper and extruding channel in close spaced relation with the surface of a roadbed on which the concrete curb is to be extruded.
