Abstract: An in-tank filter assembly for an industrial fluid reservoir tank includes a two piece filter assembly mount comprising an upper filter mount and a lower tank extension member; an element and bypass plate; a bypass structure within the element and bypass plate; a filter element mount coupled to the element and bypass plate; the disposable filter element removably coupled to the filter element mount, wherein the filter assembly forms a bowl-less in tank return line filter having inside-out flow; and an inlet closing valve configured to selectively close off the inlet and biased toward a closed position, wherein the inlet closing valve is configured to automatically close off the inlet when the disposable filter element is removed from the filter element mount.

Abstract: A conveyor belt with flow control cleats that includes belting, first cleats and second cleats. The belting has a first side edge and a second side edge. The first cleats extend from the belting. The first cleats are oriented at an angle with respect to the first side edge of between about 30 degrees and about 60 degrees. The second cleats extend from the belting. The second cleats are oriented at an angle with respect to the second side edge of between about 30 degrees and about 60 degrees. The first cleats and the second cleats both include a first long cleat section, a second long cleat section, a short cleat section and a third long cleat section. The short cleat section has a length that is shorter than a length of the first long cleat section. The second long cleat section is between the first long cleat section and the short cleat section. The short cleat section is between the second long cleat section and the third long cleat section.

Abstract: A conveyor belt with flow control cleats including belting, a first set of cleats and a second set of cleats. The belting has a first side edge and a second side edge. The first set of cleats has a plurality of first cleat sections. The first set of cleats are oriented at a first acute angle with respect to the first side edge. The second set of cleats has a plurality of second cleat sections. The second set of cleats are oriented at a second acute angle with respect to the second side edge.

Abstract: An impact absorbing conveyor belt that includes an impact absorption layer, a first fabric layer and a top cover layer. The impact absorption layer has a first side. The impact absorption layer has a durometer. When the conveyor belt is in use, the first side of the impact absorption layer is oriented toward a surface of the conveyor belt on which an object being conveyed is placed. The top cover layer has a durometer that is greater than the durometer of the impact absorption layer. The first fabric layer and the top cover layer are both positioned on the first side of the impact absorption layer.

Abstract: Universal belted chain including a first belt, a second belt, a first rod, a first fastener and a second fastener. The first belt has a first upper surface and a first lower surface. The first lower surface has a first channel formed therein. The second belt has a second upper surface and a second lower surface. The second lower surface has a second channel formed therein. The first fastener attaches the first rod to the first upper surface by extending the first fastener through the first belt. An end of the first fastener opposite the first rod is recessed in the first channel with respect to the first lower surface. The second fastener attaches the first rod to the second upper surface by extending the second fastener through the second belt. An end of the second fastener opposite the first rod is recessed in the second channel with respect to the second lower surface.
