Abstract: According to the invention, a grinding operation is used to process excavated earth, excavated material, or any other mineral material of an indeterminate shape which is to be reused at a construction site. In the process, the excavated material as well as additional piece-type coarse material passes through the grinding machine. The powdered rock resulting from the comminuting of coarse material by means of suitable breaking and/or crushing operations is then used as additive for the excavated material, which is so-to-speak generated on location. This additive is suitable for regulating the moisture of the excavated earth as well as to cause a stabilization and hardening of same. The degree of drying and hardening can be adjusted through selecting the degree of grinding, for example by grinding the coarse components more or less fine, depending on the degree of moisture or the desired post-hardening.

Abstract: This invention discloses a hose or cable reeler that can retract a hose or cable without the need for a retracting coil spring. The reeler generally comprises a reeling wheel assembly and a reeling wheel drive. The reeling wheel assembly is detachably coupled with the reeling wheel drive by means of a clutch. The reeling wheel drive mainly comprises a gear transmission chain, and is operated through a lever by manpower (e.g., treading of a foot).

Abstract: A flange for a tape roller has a curved shape that substantially solves the problems with skewed tape while maintaining manufacturability. The tape edge makes contact with the tape flange where the slope of the curve shape is substantially flat. From the contact point of the tape and the flange, the flange shape gently curves away. The shape of the flange allows some degree of skew in the tape so that contact with the flange edge is avoided, and yet the distance between the two flanges of the roller is more easily controlled than with a roller having tapered edge flanges.
