  • Patent number: 6592295
    Abstract: A device for installing erosion control blankets is provided. The device comprises a frame, a circular drum, an erosion control blanket mounting device, and a weight support device. The circular drum comprises a plurality of spring loaded pins that are used to punch the erosion control blankets into the ground simultaneously as the device rolls out the erosion control blankets. The spring loaded pins are in the retracted position until the pass over a cam, after which the spring loaded pins extend outwardly to punch the erosion control blankets into the ground. After the spring loaded pins pass over the cam the spring loaded pins return to the retracted position. Weights may be added or removed from the weight support device to obtain the desired erosion control blanket to soil compression.

  • Publication number: 20030070821
    Abstract: A slide hammer for installing stakes into the ground is provided. The slide hammer comprises a shaft with a pointed first end, a cup located on the second end, an impact ring located between the ends of the shaft, and a slideable weight located between the cup and the impact ring. The slideable weight has a gripping surface for the user to hold, and striking surfaces to forcibly contact the cup and the impact ring as the user reciprocally moves the slideable weight. The slide hammer allows the user to pre-make a hole in the ground prior to stake installation. The user is then able to install the stake into the pre-made hole using a reduced amount of force required to drive the stake into the ground.
