Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a hybrid corn plant, designated as 3279, produced by crossing two Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. proprietary inbred corn lines. This invention thus relates to the hybrid seed 3279, the hybrid plant produced from the seed, and variants, mutants, and trivial modifications of hybrid 3279. This hybrid is characterized by having excellent stress tolerance with high dependable yield. 3279 has good grain appearance and test weight with very good roots and adequate stalks. It is widely adapted across the Central Corn Belt.

Abstract: This invention provides a three-function control mechanism that employs a single control lever for controlling a first, a second and a third actuator and which may be used in connection with a bulldozer. The control mechanism includes a control bracket, a control lever, and first, second, third, and fourth bellcranks supported by the control bracket. The control mechanism further includes first, second, and third linkage that interconnect the control lever, through the bellcranks, to respective ones of the first, second, and third actuators. Due to the supporting arrangement of the control lever, bellcranks, and linkage, the control lever may be moved forward or backward, twisted clockwise or counterclockwise, or moved side to side either separately or in unison. In doing so the control lever thereby respectively actuates the first, second, and third actuators.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing throttle control linkage for an internal combustion engine having a pivotally-mounted injector lever for movement between a first predetermined position and a second predetermined position to control a fuel injector pump is disclosed and comprises a throttle control lever mounted for movement between a first predetermined position and a second predetermined position, a pivotally-mounted bellcrank having an arcuate slot formed therein, first linkage structure operatively connected between the throttle control lever and the pivotally-mounted bellcrank and second linkage structure operatively connected between the arcuate slot and the pivotally-mounted injector lever. The arcuate slot is formed along a predetermined radius from the connection of the second linkage means on the pivotally-mounted injector lever when the throttle control lever and the pivotally-mounted injector lever are positioned in the first predetermined position.

Abstract: According to the invention, there is provided a novel inbred corn line, designated PHK29. This invention thus relates to the seeds of imbred corn line PHK29, to the plants of inbred corn line PHK29, and to methods for producing a corn plant produced by crossing the inbred line PHK29 with itself or another corn line. This invention further relates to hybrid corn seeds and plants produced by crossing the inbred line PHK29 with another corn line.

Abstract: Improved support structure for the blade of a bulldozer and the like wherein a first push arm is attached for swiveling movement to the tractor frame near the rear end thereof and extends into swiveling connection with the blade and a second push arm is attached to the opposite side of the tractor frame for swiveling movement relative thereto and extends to the blade and is pivotally connected thereto. A second end of the second push arm has a pair of spaced pivotal connections to the blade to provide lateral stability between the blade and the second push arm. An adjustable strut mounted on the first push arm is pivotally connected with the blade. A tilt cylinder is mounted on the second push arm and is connected with the blade. Actuation of the tilt cylinder in cooperation with the strut causes tilting of the blade. Bending stresses are avoided in the push arms due to the swivel connection between the push arm and the tractor frame and the swivel connection between the first push arm and the blade.

Abstract: A horizontal axis pulverizing and classifying apparatus fitted with special means for removing contaminants, such as abrasive particles, which reduce the capacity and efficiency of such apparatus. The contaminant take-out device is a porous tubular duct communicating with the classification zone of the apparatus through the housing wall. The porous tubular duct is surrounded by a non-porous tubular casing forming an annulus connected to a source of gas under pressure by means of which the quantity of contaminant tailings is removed by varying the amount and pressure of gas introduced. The apparatus may also include a plurality of gas flow apertures surrounding the classification zone and directed generally radially inward, and means for selectively and variably introducing gas to those apertures, for providing improved control over the contaminant take-out device.

Abstract: A horizontal axis pulverizing and classifying apparatus characterized by a plurality of gas flow passages in a narrow band surrounding the classification zone and directed generally radially inward, and means for selectively and variably introducing gas to those passages. The apparatus may also be fitted with special means for removing contaminating particles which reduce the capacity and efficiency of such apparatus. The take-out device is a porous tubular duct communicating with the classification zone of the apparatus through the housing wall. The porous tubular duct is surrounded by a non-porous tubular casing forming an annulus connected to a source of gas under pressure. Control over the quantities of tailings recycled and over quantities of contaminants removed is exercised by varying the amount and pressure of gas introduced through the gas flow passages.

Abstract: Shroud, associated with a type of automotive fan and a vehicle radiator core, supports in a position between the fan and core an interposed debris screen which is slidable in guides in the shroud so as to be readily removable transversely out of the hood of an automotive vehicle for cleaning of the screen. Air enters the fan shroud under pressure by being blown in through fan opening means defined by the shroud at one end, and leaves under pressure in a path through radiator attachment means carried by the shroud at the other, or discharge, end. Intermediate the ends of the shroud, the debris screen is interposed with its plane between the respective planes of the opening means and attachment means, so as to screen all air being forced under pressure in the path therethrough.

Abstract: Shroud, associated with a type of automotive fan and a vehicle radiator core, supports in a position between the fan and core an interposed debris screen which is slidable in guides in the shroud so as to be readily removable transversely out of the hood of an automotive vehicle for cleaning of the screen. Doing the job of cleaning a removed screen is more simplified as a task than, and eliminates the task of, cleaning debris from a radiator core in situ.

Abstract: Heat exchanging apparatus for handling solids, slurries, gels, filter cakes, powders, and the like, for continuous indirect heating, drying, cooling or reaction of materials passed through the apparatus. The dryer/heater/cooler apparatus is characterized by a stationary horizontal vessel with a rotary heat exchanger including a tubular shaft on which are mounted a plurality of hollow vertical discs through which a heat exchanging fluid is passed. Material to be treated is admitted to one end of the apparatus housing, transported in an axial direction through the annular space between the rotor discs and the vessel toward the discharge end and discharged through an overflow weir after the desired residence time. Several rotor disc designs are shown and described.
