  • Publication number: 20140049071
    Abstract: A sound insulation structure for vehicles, machines and equipment powered by internal combustion engines equipped with emission control systems designed to meet the T4i and T4 emission standards is disclosed. The disclosed sound insulation structure includes a barrier core layer disposed between two insulation layers. Each insulation layer is disposed between the barrier core layer and either a facing layer or a backing layer. The insulation layers may be fabricated from fiberglass while the barrier core layer may be fabricated from a polymer or a rubberized polymer such as rubberized polyethylene. The backing and facing layers may be fabricated from non-woven materials such as non-woven cellulose fibers. The sound insulation structure may also be fire resistant.

  • Publication number: 20130292970
    Abstract: A trim assembly including a housing member, a complementary member, and a handle. The housing member and the complementary member cooperate to form a channel having an inlet that may be fluidly coupled to the outlet of a ventilation system of a machine. The channel provides airflow from the ventilation system to the interior of a cab of the machine by way of ventilation openings in the housing member. The handle is disposed toward the interior of the cab, the handle being adapted to be secured through at least the housing member to the frame.

  • Publication number: 20070251946
    Abstract: A brewing and drinking receptacle comprises an outer cup, an inner cup nested within the outer cup and turnable relatively thereto, and an ingredient chamber formed between mutually opposed bottom walls of the nested cups. A brewing aperture which may be a perforated section, is formed in the bottom wall of the inner cup and communicates with the ingredient chamber. A shut-off boss projecting upwardly from the bottom wall of the outer cup within the ingredient chamber is arranged to control liquid flow through the brewing aperture. The outer and inner cups are turnable relatively to one another selectively to admit or shut off flow of water, which is added to the inner cup to produce the beverage, between the inner cup and the ingredient chamber, via the brewing aperture. This enables the water to be mixed or infused with the ingredient in a controlled fashion and for the flow of beverage between the ingredient chamber and the inner cup to be shut off when the beverage achieves the desired strength.

  • Publication number: 20070125238
    Abstract: A receptacle, particularly a disposable brewing and drinking receptacle, comprises an outer cup, an inner cup nested within the outer cup an ingredient chamber located between mutually opposed bottom walls of the nested cups, and ports formed in the inner cup to permit flow of liquid between the ingredient chamber and the inner cup. The nested cups are coupled together by a screw thread structure which constrains the cups to move relatively to one another with a screw motion, in response to relative twisting of the cups, so that the cups are axially movable together and the bottom walls of the cups exert a squeezing action on an ingredient in the ingredient chamber in order to assist in mixing or infusing the ingredient with the liquid contained in the receptacle.
