Abstract: A return conveyor belt system for conveniently returning ripped lumber to an individual after being ripped. The return conveyor belt system includes a table having an upper surface, a manipulating member slidably positioned upon the table and mechanically connected to a drive motor, a conveyor pivotally attached to the table, a control unit for controlling the drive motor and the conveyor, and a sensor positioned upon the conveyor for sensing a piece of lumber. A saw positioned adjacent to the table delivers ripped lumber upon the upper surface of the table where after the manipulating member forces the ripped lumber either onto the conveyor or away from the conveyor. The ripped lumber is transported towards the operator until a sensor detects the lumber thereby terminating movement of the conveyor. The operator is then able to remove the ripped lumber from the conveyor.

Abstract: A versatile material cart system for efficiently handling elongate material in adjustable sections. The versatile material cart system includes a base having a plurality of caster wheels attached thereto, a pair of center support members attached to opposing ends of the base, a plurality of locking members attached to each of the center support members, a plurality of arm members having a collar slidably and rotatably positioned about the center support members, a plurality of side arms pivotally attached to the corners of the base, and a plurality of cross members attached to the upper ends of the center support members. The collar of the arms members has a slot for sliding about the locking members and a plurality of notches within a lower edge for catchably receiving with the locking members. The plurality of arm members are adjustable vertically and rotatably thereby allowing for the creation of various material receiving sections.
