  • Patent number: 7793487
    Abstract: A gang-type lawn mower system comprises a main frame or frame structure and a plurality of mower decks secured to the main frame. Mounted on the main frame is a power source such as an internal combustion engine. A drive train is interconnected between the power source and each of the mower decks. Thus, each mower deck is driven by the single power source. Further, the frame structure includes a tongue that is adapted to be connected to a tractor. Therefore, in cutting grass, the frame structure is pulled over the ground and each of the mower decks, driven by the power source, cuts grass or other vegetation that passes under the mower decks. Additionally, each mower deck is pivotally connected to the frame structure about at least one pivot axis.

  • Publication number: 20060141124
    Abstract: A method of incorporating fat-containing meat trimmings into cuts of lean meat. Comminuted fat or meat trimmings are comminuted to form fine particles without the use of a brine or pickle solution. The fine particles are then mixed or tumbled cuts of lean meat. The fat or meat trimmings are thereby incorporated into the meat and dispersed throughout. This process may be used to incorporate added fat to cuts of meat to enhance the flavor, tenderness, and moistness of the meat product while maintaining the pleasing texture, appearance, and consistency of lean, trimmed meat.
