| 20080264657 | Rigid Standard Bearing Shield Disk Scraper System - A bearing shield and disk scraper system to remove and deflect dirt, debris, and soil from a bearing assembly, rigid bearing hanger or standard, and/or disk blade, is provided; the system also provides a protective barrier structure for the bearing assembly. The bearing shield and disk scraper system includes a shield member and a scraper blade connected thereto. The bearing shield at least partially encases and protects a bearing assembly that rotatably supports a common axle which carries multiple disk blades of the disk gang. The scraper blade is attached to the shield member by way of a mounting flange that extends therefrom. An edge of the scraper blade is positioned in close proximity to a concave surface of an adjacent disk blade, whereby the entire assemblage of bearing shield and disk scraper system protects the bearing assembly and prevents non-desired accumulation of dirt and debris on the disk blade. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20080264659 | Cushion Standard Shield System - A cushion standard shield system to remove and deflect residue, dirt, debris, and soil from a cushion bearing hanger, or cushion standard, portion of a disk gang type agricultural implement is provided. The cushion standard shield system includes a mounting bracket supported by a common axle which carries multiple disk blades of the disk gang. A blade assembly is mounted to an upright portion of the mounting bracket, and is positioned generally behind and above the axle, behind the cushion standard. The blade assembly includes one or more plate member with arcuate lateral edges. The radii of the arcuate lateral edges correspond closely in magnitude to the radii of the concave and convex surfaces of the disk blades. The plate members are laterally adjustable with respect to each other, whereby the width dimension of blade assembly is variable to accommodate different axial spacing widths of adjacent disk blades. | 10-30-2008 |

| 20090146017 | Aircraft Trailing Edge Devices, Including Devices With Non-Parallel Motion Paths, and Associated Methods - Aircraft trailing edge devices, including devices with non-parallel motion paths, and associated methods are disclosed. A device in accordance with one embodiment includes a wing and an inboard trailing edge device coupled to the wing and movable relative to the wing between a first stowed position and a first deployed position along a first motion path. An outboard trailing edge device can be coupled to the wing outboard of the inboard trailing edge device, and can be movable relative to the wing along a second motion path that is non-parallel to the first motion path. An intermediate trailing edge device can be coupled between the inboard and outboard trailing edge devices and can be movable along a third motion path that is non-parallel to both the first and second motion paths. Each of the trailing edge devices can open a gap relative to the wing when moved to their respective deployed positions. | 06-11-2009 |
| 20100140414 | Link Mechanisms, Including Stephenson II Link Mechanisms for Multi-Position Flaps and Associated Systems and Methods - Link mechanisms, including Stephenson II link mechanisms for multi-position flaps and associated systems and methods are disclosed. A system in accordance with a particular embodiment includes an airfoil having an external flow surface with an upper portion and a lower portion, and with the airfoil forming a base link. The system further includes a six-bar linkage coupled to the airfoil and having a Stephenson II configuration, including a binary second link pivotably connected to the airfoil, a ternary third link pivotably connected to the second link, a binary fourth link pivotably connected to the third link, a ternary fifth link pivotably connected to the airfoil and the fourth link, and a binary sixth link pivotably connected to the third link and the fifth link. The system can further include a deployable leading edge panel carried by the linkage, with the leading edge panel being movable via the linkage between a stowed position and at least one deployed position. | 06-10-2010 |
