Abstract: A toy apparatus for a horse to play with when kept in a stall of a stable. The toy apparatus includes an elongated rod member, a base frame member to support the elongated rod member on the stall, and a connection system to pivotally connect the elongated rod member to the base frame member in a manner such that, when the toy apparatus is in an installation position on the stall, the elongated rod member is to project into the stall for engagement by the horse which causes the elongated rod member to pivot relative to the base frame member.

Abstract: A free spinning ball device giving support to the cutting head of a string trimmer, while maintaining a plane which is parallel and vertical to the surface being cut. The lower end housing is open to allow the primary ball to maintain constant contact with the ground while unit is in operation. The upper end housing is closed with an end designed to mate with both flat and curved heads which are most commonly found on string trimmers. The upper housing has a grooved wall around the upper interior circumference to retain smaller balls, which are in continual contact with the main spinning ball during operation. The upper and lower housings are attached to each other using an integrated lock which can be turned either clockwise or counter-clockwise to match the rotation of all string trimmers.

Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to systems and methods for cleaning water from drilling and hydraulic fracturing operations for reuse and/or release into the environment.

Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile biomass generating plant having a power unit, at least one generator and a drive shaft. In one embodiment, the power unit is mounted to a lowboy trailer and the at least one generator is mounted to at least one of the lowboy trailer and a second lowboy trailer. Additionally, the drive shaft may connect the at least one generator to the power unit. In one embodiment, the power unit may generate and direct power to the drive shaft which can be used to manipulate the at least one generator to produce electricity.

Abstract: A secondary flow, turbine cooling air system for the uniform cooling of high pressure turbine module components such as the turbine shroud, turbine blade tips, turbine nozzle, transion liner, and turbine bearing support housing in a recuperated gas turbine engine is provided. The secondary flow turbine cooling system provides uniform cooling air having a similar pressure and temperature in a recuperated gas turbine engine as the compressor discharge air of a non-recuperated gas turbine engine. A method for uniform cooling of high pressure turbine module components using the secondary flow turbine cooling air system is also provided.

Abstract: A recuperator and turbine support adapter for securing a recuperator to a combustor case is provided. The recuperator and turbine support adapter comprises an outer strutted body, an inner strutted body and a thermal spring. The thermal spring allows for thermal expansion of the recuperator and turbine support adapter while alleviating any stress or fatigue damage to the adapter. Each of the outer strutted bodies further comprises an outer ring and an inner ring connected by a plurality of struts. The recuperator and turbine support adapter also provides a means of directing the flow of cold compressed air to the recuperator and the return of the recuperator heated air to the combustor/turbine module.
