  • Support structure for vacuum duct
    Publication number: 20020157207
    Abstract: A spray boom assembly adapted for mounting on a vehicle, includes a pair of spray booms mounted for movement between a horizontally extended rigged-out position and an elevated rigged-in position. A single power cylinder moves the booms between the rigged-out and rigged-in positions and a lift link assembly is pivotally attached to the boom to effect elevation of the boom automatically upon rigging-in and depression of the boom automatically to its horizontally extended rigged-out position.

  • Folding auger
    Patent number: 6119847
    Abstract: A conveyor for transporting grain or the like consists of three or more sections foldable about two axes of rotation displaced from each other. Separate retractors operate to fold the conveyor about the two axes. A link connecting the first and second retractors permits a single actuator to fully fold the conveyor about the two axes. The first and second axes may be rotationally displaced from each other by about 90.degree..
