  • Publication number: 20040134324
    Abstract: A tile saw includes a base, a frame assembly disposed on the base, a first rail disposed on the frame assembly, the first rail having a longitudinal axis, a table slidingly disposed on the first rail, a support assembly disposed on the base, a saw assembly supported by the support assembly, the saw assembly comprising a motor, a cutting wheel driven by the motor, the saw assembly being pivotable about a horizontal axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis, and a switch electrically connected to the motor and disposed on the support assembly so that, when the motor assembly is pivoted about the horizontal axis, the switch remains stationary.

  • Patent number: 6608960
    Abstract: An end seal assembly is mounted in a conduit or feedthrough body with a through bore of stepped diameter between its ends into which a fiber or wire-carrying metal cable extends. An inner end of the cable is stopped against a shoulder in the through bore, with at least one fiber or wire extending from the cable end out through the second end of the seal body. An end seal is seated at the outlet end of the seal body and has a through bore through which the or each fiber extends. The through bore is filled with epoxy material. The end seal is of a material having a coefficient of thermal expansion approximately equal to that of the epoxy material.

  • Patent number: 6543343
    Abstract: A transportable recyclable materials densifier including an integrally configured conveyor, separator, and compactor chamber mounted on a trailer frame that is transportable along public and private roads, for separation of ferrous from non-ferrous materials, and for compaction of non-ferrous materials at each location to which the trailer is transported. A conveyor is directs materials to the separator for separation of non-ferrous materials that are directed into an upper opening in a first end of the compactor chamber, with rejection of ferrous materials from the separator for discharge. A reciprocally extendable piston and compactor end extends through the compactor chamber to compact the materials into a second end of the chamber. The compacted materials form a densified shape against a movable end wall that is raised after compaction for ejection of each densified shape from the compaction chamber for storage and/or transport to a recycling operation.

  • Patent number: 6321021
    Abstract: An end seal assembly is mounted in a conduit or feedthrough body with a through bore of stepped diameter between its ends into which a fiber or wire-carrying metal cable extends. An inner end of the cable is stopped against a shoulder in the through bore, with at least one fiber or wire extending from the cable end out through the second end of the seal body. An end seal is seated at the outlet end of the seal body and has a through bore through which the or each fiber extends. The through bore is filled with epoxy material. The end seal is of a material having a coefficient of thermal expansion approximately equal to that of the epoxy material.

  • Patent number: 5413280
    Abstract: A method and dispensing apparatus for dispensing a soluble compound into a liquid stream. The dispensing apparatus includes a base having an inlet end and an outlet end with a throughbore connecting said inlet end to said outlet end. The throughbore is of generally constant diameter and unobstructed. A container for housing the soluble compound includes an opening. The container is removably secured to the base by a threaded connection. The base includes inlet and outlet connectors to couple the inlet end of the throughbore to a conduit connected to a liquid source and the outlet end of the throughbore to a lawn sprinkler. The base has an entrance orifice and an exit orifice between the throughbore and the secured container. A stake is adapted to be attached to the base member to secure the apparatus to the ground. The entrance orifice is smaller in diameter than the exit orifice and is typically located upstream of the exit orifice.
