Abstract: A pair of multiple position tie down brackets that fit between the mounting hole patterns of the rear pegs of certain year, brand, and model motorcycles. The tie down brackets allow for a more robust and attractive mounting point to secure the motorcycle to a trailer than through conventional means; whether routing a tie down strap around the passenger foot pegs, through the saddlebag supports, or through the rear wheel. This helps avoid the possibility of damaging, bending, or scratching the rear wheel, passenger foot pegs, or saddlebag supports. Additionally, machined slots in the tie down brackets allow for the rider to adjust the rear brackets or passenger foot pegs in multiple positions to suit rider comfort and safety.

Abstract: A lid opener apparatus is provided for use with a relatively large storage bin, and comprises a handle and structure for mounting and supporting the handle at a convenient height for manipulation by an operator. The mounting and support structure includes a first elongate link which has one end thereof pivotally mounted to the handle and the other end thereof pivotally mounted at a fixed location relative to the bin. A first elongate rod-like member is pivotally mounted to the same end of the link which receives the handle and extends upwardly to an area adjacent the top of the bin. A second rod-like member is pivotally coupled at one end thereof to the lid and extends outwardly to an area adjacent the uppermost end of the first rod-like member.

Abstract: There s disclosed a stariway system having a single stringer assembly and tread members which may be attached to a receiving structure by means of pre-existing through bores therein. The system may be adapted to walls having a horizontal curvature as the stringer assembly is composed of individual stringer sections which may be adjusted to allow each of the treads to be splayed along a radius of the curvature to provide a stairway having a constant tread width along the line of travel.

Abstract: When poultry or other livestock feed is stored within a bin having a conical bottom, the feed can become packed and bridge across the bin bottom opening. Under such circumstances, delivery of feed to an underlying conveyor may be erratic under some conditions. To overcome this, the present invention provides a first rotatable shaft extending upwardly along the axis of the bin bottom cone. A second shaft is joined to the first shaft by a universal joint. Mounted on the second shaft are a number of poly-sided discs. Here, these discs are equilateral triangles, and the triangle corners or points are bent out of the plane of the mediate disc portions. Arrangements are provided for locking the discs to the second shaft. If desired, a feed support disc can be carried by the first shaft below the second shaft so as to at least temporarily support feed which has been dislodged by the rotating poly-sided discs above it.
