  • Patent number: 11484921
    Abstract: A biomass stabilization assembly for managing soft cell organic waste ingredients. Prescribed ingredients are introduced into an inner chamber of a housing, such as through a top hatch, with subsequent unloading of a completed and chemically inert product occurring through a concealed chute and a rear port exhausting H2O gas vapor. The invention includes associated control and processor based components and operates outdoors or indoors of individual facilities and may further incorporate software protocols and algorithms which permit any status monitoring or modification of operational parameters as determined by sensor inputs.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5735384
    Abstract: An endless accumulating conveyor has upper and lower guide rails for supporting pallets. An endless roller chain has an upper run extending along the upper guide rails and a lower run extending along the lower guide rails. A dogging device on each pallet is engageable between the rollers of the chain to move the pallet with the chain along the upper and lower runs. A friction clutch for the dogging device of each pallet causes the dogging device to release and slip past the rollers of the chain when the pallet encounters a predetermined resistance to movement, as when it is desired to accumulate pallets. Mechanism is provided for positively propelling each pallet over the curved section at both ends of the conveyor from one run to the other without slipping.
