Abstract: A method for filtering and delivering air to an engine of a chainsaw. The method includes sealing a foam element against the inner surfaces between a filter cover and faceplate of a chainsaw, including the cage and faceplate intake structure and a cage, the sealing comprising squishing a foam material against one or more surfaces of the inner structures, and a cover designed to enhance airflow to an intake plenum.

Abstract: A dual attenuation ear (DNA) protecting headset/earmuff, having means for externally adjusting the location of an integral inner earplug into the ear canal of a wearer, useful in high noise environments. In a headgear such as an earmuff, there is typically no way to insert an additional attenuation device, such as an earplug, once the earmuff is placed on the ear. The apparatus includes a pair of toggle levers equipped with replaceable earplugs on the ends, which are integral to the headgear and accessible from outside of the earcup. Manual manipulation of the toggle selectively manipulates the end of the earplug into the wearer's ear, providing additional degrees of ambient sound attenuation. The earmuff device, with concurrent dual protection, can be placed or removed from the ear without requiring a two-step process of first inserting the earplug, and then covering it with the earcup or vise-versa.

Abstract: A rake having a handle, and a rake head. The rake head includes a frame having a neck dimensioned to receive one end of the handle; a plurality of tines, the plurality of tines comprising: a movable inner tine section, the movable inner tine section having a first movable inner tine section, a second movable inner tine section and at least one fixed inner tine between the first movable inner tine section and the second inner tine section; and a fixed outer tine section on each side of the inner section; a support member extending across the plurality of tines, the support member comprising a plurality of supports positioned between the tines; and at screening material, which separates a wanted material from an unwanted material.

Abstract: A motion assisted manure fork having a handle, a fork head having a plurality of tines, a leverage assembly and a motor assembly that imparts a sinusoidal motion to the plurality of tines. The fork head includes a frame having a neck dimensioned to receive one end of a handle and a plurality of tines. The plurality of tines has an inner tine section, and an outer tine section on each side of the inner section with a hinge positioned between the inner tine section and each of the outer tine sections. The fork head also has an angle of inclination, which divides the plurality of tines into an upper portion of tines at a first angle to the handle and a lower portion of tines at a second angle to the handle. A support member extends across the plurality of tines, which includes a plurality of supports positioned between the tines to provide strength to the fork head during use.
