Abstract: A greaseless pivot center swivel and bearing device is provided. The device includes an outer housing having a sidewall with top and bottom portions, a top plate coupled with the top portion that includes an opening therein, and a bottom plate coupled with the bottom portion that includes an opening therein. The sidewall cooperates with the top and bottom plates to define an interior volume. A plurality of bushing members formed of a low-friction material are positioned within the interior volume and include a surface cylindrically curved about an axis extending between the top and bottom plates of the housing. The cylindrically curved surfaces cooperate with the openings in the top and bottom plates to define a cylindrical passage through the interior volume sized and shaped for receiving a cylindrical tube that rotates therein, e.g., a tube configured to connect with a water supply column of a mechanized irrigation system.

Abstract: An irrigation system having a pipeline supported by one or more towers includes an improved truss connection system having a means for readily adjusting a crown height of the pipeline. A pair of cooperating members define a joint which selectively couples headed ends of adjacent truss rods together to form a truss rail of a truss system that supports the pipeline. A single fastener may fasten the cooperating members, a strut, and a cross-member together at the joint. A length of the truss rail may be decreased by holding the truss rods closer together. In an aspect, the headed ends of the adjacent truss rods are held closer together by inserting a shim in one of the joints. Decreasing the length of the truss rail increases the deflection of the pipeline and raises the crown height.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a non-welded, clevis-type coupling assembly that provides two sheer planes and, accordingly, increases the load bearing capacity thereof. The assembly includes a coupling plate having a first section, a second section, and a third section. The second section is intermediate the first section and the third section and the first and third sections are oriented at an angle of 90° with respect to one another. The coupling plate includes a contiguous opening extending there through having a first part and a second part. The first part has a first dimension and the second part has a second dimension that is larger than the first dimension.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for creating sensor based rules for detecting and responding to malicious activity. Evidence corresponding to a malicious activity is received. The evidence corresponding to malicious activity is analyzed. Indicators are identified from the evidence. The indicators are extracted from the evidence. It is determined that an action to mitigate or detect a threat needs to be taken based on the indicators and evidence. A sensor to employ the prescribed action is identified. Whether a sensor based rule meets a threshold requirement is validated. A configuration file used to task the sensor based rule to the identified sensor is created. The number of sensor based rule triggers is tracked.

Abstract: A kit and method for aligning a scope located a shooting weapon including calibrating first and second electronic alignment sensors while on the shooting weapon, placing the second electronic alignment sensor on the scope, and adjusting an alignment of the scope relative to the shooting weapon if the first and second electronic alignment sensors indicate relative vertical misalignment.

Abstract: A valve is provided and includes a bypass block defining a bypass flowpath fluidly communicable with main flowpaths, a member disposable within the bypass block to occupy and move between first and second positions, the member being configured to permit fluid flow through the bypass flowpath when occupying the first position and to block a portion of the bypass flowpath to thereby prevent fluid flow through the bypass flowpath when occupying the second position and an elastic element. The elastic element is coupled to the member and configured to bias the member in a biasing direction toward the second position responsive to a temperature of fluid flowing along the main flowpaths.
