20160040774 | GEARBOX WITH A THREE-POINT MOUNTING THAT REDUCES GEARBOX DISTORTION - A gearbox comprises a gearbox housing containing a gear train whose shafts are supported by the housing. The housing is fastened to a mounting plate at exactly three attachment points. This three point attachment reduces distortion of the housing that may cause misalignment of individual meshing gears in the gear train, leading to premature failure of those gears transmitting high torque. | 02-11-2016 |
20150374027 | DT VAPOR WASH - An agricultural product treatment system. A preferred embodiment of the invention includes a truncated conical section which has a small diameter at one end in fluid communication with a conduit array conveying particulate matter from the DT. An open large diameter end of the structure is axially coextensive and coaxial with an expanded diameter conduit portion. | 12-31-2015 |
20150329791 | Biodiesel Cold Filtration Process - An improved biodiesel production process includes the steps of processing a feedstock to produce biodiesel, cooling the biodiesel so as to form sediment, and filtering the biodiesel to remove the sediment. The resulting biodiesel from the cold filtration process avoids problems of sediment formation during storage and transportation. | 11-19-2015 |
20150132198 | EXTRACTOR - An extractor which provides significant features over structures known in the prior art. The present improved structure employs nozzles which eject a jet of fluid upwardly into a granular or flake product being conveyed on a transfer conveyor. | 05-14-2015 |
20140115914 | DESOLVENTIZER TOASTER - An improved desolventizer toaster. The invention includes a housing. Within the housing, a first set of trays and a second set of trays are mounted. The first trays and second trays are disposed such that they are generally vertically spaced from one another and in a generally parallel disposition with respect to each other. Means for mixing vapors are provided, and they are positioned in a vapor mixing zone which is intermediate the first set of trays and second set of trays. | 05-01-2014 |

20120306161 | MULTI-SEGMENT SEAL RETAINER FOR ROTATING SHAFTS - A retainer assembly for a seal encircling a shaft to prevent migration along the shaft, has at least two rings that encircle the shaft. A first ring is fastened to the wall and encircles the shaft to form an annular recess surrounding the periphery of the seal. A second ring encircles the shaft with outside and inside diameters allowing at least a portion of the second ring to fit into the annular recess between the first ring and the seal. A plurality of fasteners attach to the first ring and are external to the second ring. Each fastener engages a peripheral portion of the second ring to press the second ring toward the wall. In a preferred embodiment, the retainer has inner, middle, and outer rings that allow retaining of two seal sections. | 12-06-2012 |
20100233349 | Biomass Extracts with Protein and Nutritional Value - Biomass extracts with high protein and nutritional value and methods for making the same are disclosed. Such extracts may include cakes with low residual oil and high levels of desirable constituents and oils that require little to no downstream processing upon extraction from the biomass. Also includes methods of extracting desirable products from an oil bearing biomass. | 09-16-2010 |
