Abstract: A saw blade includes an elongated body with a working edge extending along a longitudinal axis. A first strip composed of carbide or cermet and including at least one first full cutting tooth is coupled to a first portion of the working edge by a first weld fusion zone composed of a ductile material. The first strip is set in a first direction at a first angle out of a plane of the body by a first bend in the first weld fusion zone. A second strip composed of carbide or cermet and including at least one second full cutting tooth is coupled to a second portion of the working edge by a second weld fusion zone composed of a ductile material. The second strip is set in a second direction, opposite the first direction, at a second angle out of the plane of the body by a second bend in the second weld fusion zone.

Abstract: A saw blade includes an elongated body extending along a longitudinal axis and having an elongated cutting edge. A first hard metal strip is attached to a first portion of the cutting edge and includes at least one first full hard metal cutting tooth that is set left at a first angle relative to a vertical axis of the body that is generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. A second hard metal strip attached to a second portion of the cutting edge and includes a second full hard metal cutting tooth that is set right at a second angle relative the vertical axis.

Abstract: An aerial lift system is provided for ballistic protection. The system includes an aerial lift device comprising a floor and a sidewall, the floor and the sidewall defining an interior cavity adapted for supporting one or more persons therein; and a liner comprising a floor and a sidewall and being adapted to be positioned within the interior cavity of the aerial lift device, and defining an opening between the aerial lift device and the liner. Additionally, the system includes at least one of the following: the system further includes a ballistic material adapted to be positioned between the liner and the aerial lift device; or the aerial lift device is comprised of a ballistic material; or the liner is comprised of a ballistic material.

Abstract: A solenoid pump for moving a fluid is disclosed. The pump includes a solenoid coil that generates an electromagnetic field for moving a plunger relative to a stationary core. Magnetic components of the solenoid pump direct the electromagnetic field to provide a substantially balanced magnetic force on the plunger.

Abstract: In an embodiment of the present disclosure, an apparatus for handling a fluid is provided. The apparatus comprising a reservoir having a basin which receives the fluid and at least a first port through which the fluid is evacuated; a pump housing including a fluid pump; a fluid conduit in fluid communication with the fluid in the reservoir through the first port of the reservoir and in fluid communication with the fluid pump; at least one sensor which provides an indication of a height of the fluid in the reservoir; and a conduit with a first aperture and a second aperture therethrough, wherein the reservoir and the pump housing are external to the conduit.

Abstract: In an improved pump assembly having a fluid reservoir into which a stationary post extends, a sensor is supported by the post and a floating member is supported for travel between upper and lower portions of the post. A magnet is supported by the floating member, the sensor responding to the position of the magnet as the floating ring member moves along the post. A float retention member is detachably supported by the post to retain the floating member on the post, the floating member having a support ring with a plurality of inwardly extending spring members disposed to grip the end of the post. A heat exchanger is supported for absorbing a portion of the thermal energy created by the pump assembly.

Abstract: An apparatus for mounting an assembly comprising light emitting diodes (LEDs) or other light producing components mounted on one or more printed circuit boards (PCBs) in a light housing designed to accept a standardized light producing bulb comprising a mounting adapter designed so that the pcb can snap/lock into position in the adapter and the adapter can mount into the housing in the manner of a standard bulb.

Abstract: A coupling assembly and associated method is provided for an air conditioning system. The coupling assembly is configured for coupling an indoor coil section of the air conditioning system to a condensate drain line. The coupling assembly has a conduit that is attachable at one end to the indoor coil section. Also, a pump is enclosed within the conduit that has a suction port and a parallel discharge port. The suction port is operably connected to a condensate collection member of the indoor coil section and the discharge port operably connected to the condensate drain line. Preferably, the coupling assembly also has a switching circuit controlling operation of the pump in relation to rate at which condensate is pumped.
