Abstract: A dumping system for a kiln floor having a pnematic cylinder to cause a plurality of rows of tray assemblies to move between a closed postion and an open position. A harmonizing bar assembly is connected to the rows of tray assemblies and acts to synchronize movement of the tray assemblies and locks the tray assemblies in a fully clsoed or open position. The linkage between the pneumatic cylinder and the rows of tray assemblies includes a device to adjust the connection with the shaft supporting the tray assemblies.

Abstract: A germination floor system for a malt plant having a plurality of pivotally mounted tray assemblies movable between a horizontal position for supporting grain during germination and an approximate upright orientation to provide access beneath the floor for cleaning. The tray assemblies are capable of being manually movable to the cleaning position or, alternatively, may be fitted with a pneumatic cylinder and/or spring devices to facilitate movement. In the vertical cleaning position, the individual tray assemblies are fixed in position to prevent injury to personnel beneath the structure.

Abstract: Throttle cable control assemblies for carburetors for adjustably mounting the throttle (accelerator) cable on the carburetor. A bracket body is mounted on the carburetor and includes a projecting arm having a post. A clamp assembly frictionally engages the post and throttle cable. The clamp assembly is capable of being pivoted on and movable along the post for adjustment.

Abstract: A kiln floor system having a plurality of sequentially operated, pivotally mounted trays capable of dumping a load of grain in a minimum of time. Typical field trays of the floor are coupled in pairs to a single air cylinder for economy of operation. The gear rack associated with the turning machine is independently adjustable to insure alignment of the gear rack. The floor includes stringer gage members to insure proper installation and alignment of the stringers. A wall panel is provided for updated restoration and automation of existing kiln floors.

Abstract: A portable tool suitable for removing snow accumulations from pitched roofs while standing on the ground. The tool is provided with an elongate handle for propelling a U-shaped body member upwardly across the roof while forming a U-shaped channel in the snow, and a pivotal blade movable into a plane generally perpendicular to the roof upon movement of the tool downwardly toward the roof edge for plowing the snow in the previously formed U-shaped channel off the roof.
