20150065766 | Heavy Oils Having Reduced Total Acid Number and Olefin Content - A process for treating a heavy oil by heating a feedstock comprising a heavy oil in order to separate from the heavy oil a first fraction. The first fraction contains no more than 25% of the total number of acid groups of the heavy oil. A second fraction contains at least 75% of the total number of acid groups of the heavy oil. The second fraction then is treated under conditions that provide a heavy oil that has a total acid number, or TAN, that does not exceed 1.0 mg KOH/g, or is at least 50% lower than the total acid number prior to treatment, an olefin content that does not exceed 1.0 wt. %, and a p-value of at least 50% of the p-value of the heavy oil prior to treatment, or a p-value that is at least 1.5. | 03-05-2015 |

20090095927 | THERMALLY ACTUATED VALVES, PHOTOVOLTAIC CELLS AND ARRAYS COMPRISING SAME, AND METHODS FOR PRODUCING SAME - Thermally actuated valves, photovoltaic cells and arrays comprising same, and methods for producing same are disclosed. In some embodiments, thermally actuated valves are provided, comprising: a first material defining at least one opening; and a beam attached to the first material so as to at least partially cover the at least one opening, wherein the first material and the beam comprise different thermal expansion properties, such that, when a temperature is applied to at least one of the first material and the beam, the beam buckles so as to at least partially uncover the at least one opening. In some embodiments, photovoltaic cells and arrays comprising thermally actuated valves, and methods for producing thermally actuated valves are provided. | 04-16-2009 |

20160107685 | Steering Knuckle for a Vehicle - A steering knuckle to be used with the steering assembly of a vehicle such as a farming tractor is disclosed. The steering knuckle comprises preconfigured attachment areas where attachment element(s) or bracket(s) can be releasably yet rigidly secured. The attachment areas may be further reinforced with additional knuckle material (e.g. metal, metallic alloy). The steering knuckle therefore provides predetermined and preconfigured attachment location(s) where a wheel-replacing track system can be secured, thereby allowing the track system to be mounted to the vehicle while avoiding attachment at inconvenient or weak locations. | 04-21-2016 |

20120090903 | Track System - This invention generally relates to track systems and traction assemblies for use as wheel replacement for normally wheeled vehicles. The track system uses a traction band disposed about a sprocket wheel, idler wheels and road wheels for propulsion. The idler wheels and road wheels are typically pivotally mounted to a support frame, itself configured to be coupled to the sprocket wheel via a support member. The track system also comprises a movement limiting link mounted both to the support member and to the vehicle frame. The movement limiting link limits longitudinal and lateral movements of the track system, such as to prevent contact between the track system and the vehicle. | 04-19-2012 |

20130161918 | Steering Knuckle for a Vehicle - A steering knuckle to be used with the steering assembly of a vehicle such as a farming tractor is disclosed. The steering knuckle comprises several preconfigured attachment areas where attachment element(s) or bracket(s) can be releasably yet rigidly secured. The attachment areas may be further reinforced with additional knuckle material (e.g. metal, metallic alloy). The steering knuckle therefore provides predetermined and preconfigured attachment locations where a wheel-replacing track system can be secured, thereby allowing the track system to be mounted to the vehicle while avoiding attachment at inconvenient or weak locations. | 06-27-2013 |
20130277928 | Semi-Generic Underframe Assembly for a Vehicle - A semi-generic underframe assembly configured to be mounted to an underside of a vehicle is disclosed. The underframe assembly provides preconfigured mounting locations where track systems used to replace wheels can be properly mounted. The underframe assembly comprises at least one customized adapter frame particularly configured to be mounted at specific locations on the underside of a specific model of vehicle, and at least one generic adapter frame configured to be mounted to the customized adapter frame, the at least one generic adapter frame generally comprising the preconfigured mounting locations. The underframe assembly generally allows track systems to be mounted to the vehicle while avoiding attachment at inconvenient and/or weak locations. | 10-24-2013 |
