Publication number: 20250073509Abstract: A horizontal lifeline shuttle apparatus is provided. The horizontal lifeline shuttle apparatus includes an attachment portion, a body portion, and a cable channel. The body portion is configured to at least partially surround a portion of a cable so as to retain the portion of the cable within a cable channel The attachment portion is configured to move relative to the body portion based at least in part on the motion of the moveable pin fixedly secured thereto. At least a portion of the moveable pin is disposed within each of a plurality of moveable pin guide grooves positioned within the body portion such that a range of motion of the moveable pin is defined at least in part by the plurality of moveable pin grooves. At least one of the plurality of moveable pin grooves comprises a vertical portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2024Publication date: March 6, 2025Inventors: Josef NOVOTNY, Viliam GDOVEC, Marketa AUDYOVA, Scott Hugh BRADFORD

Patent number: 11849660Abstract: A tillage implement has a frame with a center section and first and second outer wing sections hingedly attached the center section such that the wing sections can be operably raised and lowered between a field-working position and a transport position. The sections each carry tillage tools for working the soil. Controlling a precharge in a secondary side of a hydraulic circuit enables the operator of the implement to adjust the downward pressure precharge provided by a plurality of hydraulic cylinders based on a desired stiffness of the implement. A pressure-reducing valve is configured such that flow from the hydraulic supply applies downward pressure precharge on the plurality of tillage tools. Once this desired precharge has been achieved, flow from the hydraulic supply is shut off and a check valve holds the pressure such that the plurality of hydraulic cylinders holds the tillage tools in position.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2018Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: AGCO CorporationInventors: Jarret Lee Brinker, Jeffrey Scott Hughes, Joseph Shawn Meier

Publication number: 20230270041Abstract: An implement for working an agricultural field includes a frame and a plurality of row units carried by the frame. Each row unit includes a subframe trailing the frame and connected to the frame by an upper link and a lower link, at least two different ground-engaging tools carried by the subframe, and at least one pneumatic actuator configured to change a length of the upper link or the lower link to keep the ground-engaging tools in contact with ground. A method includes pulling the implement through the agricultural field, maintaining a selected pressure in the pneumatic actuator, and maintaining the ground-engaging tools in contact with the agricultural field.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2021Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventor: Jeffrey Scott Hughes

Patent number: 11577105Abstract: A locking system is provided for fall protection. The locking system includes a housing. The housing defines a guide path through which the housing is slideably attached to a guide member. The locking system also includes a braking lever having a braking end. The braking lever is configured to rotate so as to allow the braking end to engage the guide member. The guide path defines at least one bending slot configured to allow the housing to deform in response to a predetermined amount of force being applied by the guide member upon the housing. A housing for a locking system is also provided.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2020Date of Patent: February 14, 2023Assignee: Honeywell International Inc.Inventors: Pavel Marak, Jan Hrouzek, Scott Hugh Bradford, Frank Muessig, Josef Novotny

Patent number: 11464153Abstract: A tillage implement has a frame with a center section and first and second outer wing sections hingedly attached to respective outer ends of the center section. Controlling a pressure in a secondary side of a hydraulic circuit enables adjustment of the downward pressure precharge provided by hydraulic cylinders based on a desired stiffness of the implement. Flow from a hydraulic supply through a pressure-reducing valve puts the downward pressure precharge on gauge wheels. Once this desired downward pressure precharge has been achieved, flow from the hydraulic supply is shut off and a check valve holds the pressure such that the hydraulic cylinders hold the gauge wheels in the desired position.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2018Date of Patent: October 11, 2022Assignee: AGCO CorporationInventors: Jarret Lee Brinker, Jeffrey Scott Hughes

Patent number: 11297995Abstract: Embodiments of the invention disclosed herein include steam appliances and methods which apply steam and a liquid containing a cleaning agent to the floor via separate outlets. In some embodiments, the liquid containing a cleaning agent is applied to an area of the floor that is physically separated from a steam application area. The steam may be applied to the floor through a steam-permeable fabric. The liquid containing a cleaning agent may be heated before being applied to the floor or being mixed with steam.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2019Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: SharkNinja Operating LLCInventors: Alan L. Weeks, Kim C. Reeves, William Scott Hughes, Ognjen Vrdoljak
