Abstract: One example provides a floating drive-on pontoon port including a plurality of floating sections pivotally coupled together in series with one another to form an articulating port track base and an articulating starboard track base extending longitudinally in parallel with one another, the port and starboard track bases each having a lower surface to be disposed in water and an opposing upper surface to face away from the water. A port transport track extends longitudinally across the upper surface of the port track base, and a starboard transport track extends longitudinally across the upper surface of the starboard track base and in parallel with the port transport track, the port and starboard transport tracks each comprising a series of spaced apart rollers configured to respectively receive, transport, and support a port pontoon and a starboard pontoon of a pontoon during loading, unloading, and storage of the pontoon boat on the pontoon port.

Abstract: One example provides a roller assembly for conveying a watercraft on a floating drive-on watercraft port. The roller assembly includes an axle, a center roller disposed on the axle, and a pair of shoulder rollers disposed on the axle, one shoulder roller disposed on each side of the center roller, the center roller and each shoulder roller free to spin independently from one another about the axle. Each shoulder roller includes an outer sidewall facing away from the center roller, and an inner sidewall facing the roller, a diameter of the shoulder roller at the outer sidewall being greater than a diameter of the shoulder roller at the inner sidewall such that an outer circumferential surface of the shoulder roller is downwardly angled from the outer sidewall toward the center roller.

Abstract: One example provides a wheel for conveying a watercraft on a floating drive-on watercraft port. The wheel includes a rim including a center hub having a tapered bore configured to receive an axle, the bore tapered such that a center diameter at a center circumference of the bore is less than an end diameter at bore openings at opposing ends of the bore. A tire is disposed about an outer circumference of the rim for engaging a hull of a watercraft.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a floating dock system, the floating dock system comprising at least two dock sections, said dock sections comprising substantially horizontal slots along at least one edge; and at least one coupling member configured to engage a horizontal slot in at least two dock sections; whereby the at least two dock sections are retained together by the at least one coupling member.

Abstract: A concrete floor insert includes a peripheral side wall and a breakaway mount. The peripheral side wall has an inner surface which is disposed between a top end and a bottom end. The breakaway mount is adapted to fasten to a floor form and coupled to the inner surface of the peripheral side wall through a weakened portion such that when the floor form is removed from the hardened floor, the breakaway mount separates from the inner surface at the weakened portion.

Abstract: A silo chute hopper attachment that fits underneath an existing silo chute having a swivel end, and an upper hopper portion that has flanges slidably mounted onto brackets fixed to the silo wall so that the hopper slides in and out like a drawer underneath the silo chute. It can be easily removed for getting into the silo chute. When removed the bottom outlet opening of the silo chute is completely open.

Abstract: A freestanding one-piece shelter for young animals is provided with a ventilation and feeding system. The ventilation system includes an opening in an exterior wall of the shelter for circulation and a vent at the top of the shelter. The vent comprises a raised portion on the roof of the shelter covered by a cap. The raised portion has ventilation openings. The underside of the cap is fitted with lugs to rest on the raised portion to hold the cap in its raised position. The lugs fit in the ventilation openings when the cap is rotated to its lowered position. The opening in the side of the shelter is also used for access to the feeding station. The feeding station includes a flange which engages the lower edge of the opening. The feeding station has at least one generally circular fitting with a tapered lip which receives a tapered feeding bucket. The tapered feeding bucket has a raised splash guard.
