  • Publication number: 20110153142
    Abstract: For a cement mixer installed on a vehicle, a vehicle controller area network is modified to develop from engine speed, hydraulic power take-off system pressure and programmed data on power take-off pump capacity estimates of rotational speed and barrel rotational count. The network can also maintain a constant barrel rotational speed during transportation.

  • Patent number: 7611154
    Abstract: An electronic height control system for a vehicle chassis air suspension is modified to provide bimodal operation. In the second mode of operation the chassis air suspension system is maintain a stationary in a stable, level position to serve as a base for a mobile aerial lift unit installed on the vehicle. Operation of the suspension system in its stabilization and leveling mode is triggered by activation of a vehicle power take-off unit (“PTO”) used to position the aerial lift unit.

  • Patent number: 5722505
    Abstract: A man-lifting platform for mounting on an aerial boom comprising a frame adapted to be pivotally connected to the distal end of the aerial boom. The frame has a pair of sleeves on opposite sides thereof and a pair of rods in the sleeves. The rods are secured to the man-lifting platform and generally parallel fashion. A power cylinder is connected between the frame and the man-lifting platform whereby the man-lifting platform may be moved the length of the rods by actuation of the cylinder.
