Abstract: A combine harvester with a grain tank for storing harvested grain, an unload conveyor for unloading the harvested grain stored in the grain tank into a nearby grain hauling vehicle, a chopper for chopping residue straw, and a spreader system for spreading the chopped residue straw in an area behind the combine harvester. The combine harvester further includes a radar-based residue monitoring system for monitoring a spreading distribution of the chopped residue straw. A controller is configured to receive sensor signals from one or more radar sensors of the radar-based residue monitoring system, and to detect a presence of the nearby grain hauling vehicle based on the received sensor signals.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to a surgical method for deploying implants for repairing damaged tissue, such as meniscus tears. One exemplary surgical device for use in the method includes a cannula and a pusher moveable within the cannula to deploy a plurality of implants. Movement of the pusher in the distal direction deploys a distal-most implant and moves any additional implants distally within the cannula. Thus, multiple implants can be loaded into the cannula and deployed using one pusher. The disclosed arrangement is easy to use and has fewer component parts compared to prior devices, which in turn increases the ease of manufacture and reduces cost.

Abstract: A chewing gum package includes a dispenser, a dispenser holder, and a gum holder. The dispenser is configured to dispense a flavored liquid. The dispenser holder is configured to detachably receive and hold the dispenser. The gum holder is configured to hold a chewing gum product. The gum holder includes a first panel connected relative to and extending outward from a first side of the dispenser holder, and a second panel connected relative to and extending outward from a first side of the dispenser holder. The first panel and the second panel are configured to be movable between a closed position and an open position. The first panel and the second panel are substantially parallel to one another in the closed position to inhibit access to the chewing gum product and are not parallel to one another in the open position to increase access to the gum product.

Abstract: A fan assembly for a work vehicle includes a fan shroud defining an opening and a fan. The fan includes a rotor and one or more blades extending outwardly along a radial direction from the rotor. The fan assembly additionally includes a wear ring attached to the fan shroud and extending inwardly along the radial direction. The wear ring is configured to interact with tips of the blades to increase an efficiency of the fan assembly.

Abstract: A liquid applicator is configured to apply liquid to a contoured surface. The liquid applicator includes a frame with a laterally extending base and a plurality of elongated fingers spaced laterally along the base. The fingers flex to follow the contoured surface when a liquid application force is applied. The liquid applicator also includes a flexible applicator pad assembly supported on multiple ones of the fingers. The applicator pad assembly is operable to carry liquid and is flexible at least generally with the fingers so as to follow the contoured surface during liquid application.

Abstract: A liquid applicator includes a frame and a flexible applicator pad. The frame includes an elongated handle that presents opposite handle margins and extends in a longitudinal direction between the margins. The flexible applicator pad presents opposite applicator pad ends. The handle margins are coupled relative to the flexible applicator pad adjacent corresponding applicator pad ends. The handle presents an intermediate region that is flexible and spaced from the pad, with the liquid applicator thereby being shiftable into and out of a relaxed applicator condition.
