20100142865SPLIT GUIDE BUSHING FOR VERTICAL PULVERIZERS - A guide bushing for a tensioning rod in a vertical pulverizer includes a bushing body having a substantially cylindrical interior bushing surface configured and adapted to moveably engage a tensioning rod of a vertical pulverizer. The bushing body is divided circumferentially about the bushing surface into a plurality of sections joined together. The sections are configured and adapted to separate from one another for installation and removal of the bushing body about a tensioning rod of a vertical pulverizer.06-10-2010

20090008487Loading system for vertical material size reduction system - The invention provides a loading system for a vertical material size reduction system including a pressure frame configured and adapted to be attached to at least one roller wheel assembly of the vertical material size reduction system. The loading system also includes at least one hydraulic cylinder operably connected to the pressure frame. The hydraulic cylinder is configured and adapted to apply a force to the pressure frame to apply pressure through the at least one roller wheel assembly to a grinding table of the vertical material size reduction system. The invention also provides a kit and a method for retrofitting a vertical material size reduction system accordingly.01-08-2009
20090011913Tire for material treatment system - The invention provides a tire and a roll wheel assembly used to crush material in a pulverizer including a generally toroidal body having a crushing surface on the outer periphery thereof. The crushing surface is configured and adapted to contact and crush the material within the pulverizer. At least one beveled surface is defined on an inner periphery of the body. The beveled surface is configured and adapted to engage a wedge disposed on a roller wheel of a roll wheel assembly to hold the tire on the roller wheel. The invention also provides a method of securing a tire to a roller assembly in a pulverizer for crushing material.01-08-2009
20100119187BEARING UPGRADE AND KIT - A journal bearing assembly includes a journal shaft configured to be mounted in a pulverizer. The journal shaft has a lower bearing receiving surface proximate a lower end thereof, and an upper bearing receiving surface spaced apart from the lower bearing receiving surface axially. A lower journal bearing is mounted on the lower bearing receiving surface of the journal shaft. An upper journal bearing is mounted on the upper bearing receiving surface of the journal shaft. An upper journal housing is mounted on the upper journal bearing for rotational movement relative to the journal shaft. A lower journal housing is mounted on the lower journal bearing for rotational movement relative to the journal shaft. The lower journal housing is mounted to the upper journal housing for common rotation about the journal shaft. The journal bearing assembly has a loading point defined between the upper and lower journal bearings.05-13-2010

20080301841Plants with improved yield and stress tolerance - Polynucleotides incorporated into expression vectors have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. The encoded polypeptides of the invention have been shown to confer at least one regulatory activity and confer greater size, greater organ size, greater biomass, greater yield, curlier leaves, darker coloration, greater tolerance to water deprivation, delayed flowering, delayed development, delayed senescence, greater tolerance to cold, and/or greater tolerance to hyperosmotic stress as compared to a control plant.12-04-2008
20100162427POLYNUCLEOTIDES AND POLYPEPTIDES IN PLANTS - The invention relates to plant transcription factor polypeptides, polynucleotides that encode them, homologs from a variety of plant species, and methods of using the polynucleotides and polypeptides to produce transgenic plants having advantageous properties compared to a reference plant. Sequence information related to these polynucleotides and polypeptides can also be used in bioinformatic search methods and is also disclosed.06-24-2010

20120005784PLANT TOLERANCE TO LOW WATER, LOW NITROGEN AND COLD II - Polynucleotides incorporated into nucleic acid constructs have been introduced into plants and were ectopically expressed. The encoded polypeptides of the invention have been shown to confer at least one regulatory activity and confer earlier flowering, longer floral organ retention, increased cold tolerance, greater tolerance to water deprivation, altered carbon-nitrogen balance sensing, increased low nitrogen tolerance, and/or increased tolerance to hyperosmotic stress as compared to a control plant.01-05-2012

20090111616System for detecting and tracking statistics of a game - The present invention relates to a system for detecting and tracking statistics of a game, and more particularly, to a system for detecting and tracking game statistics for a specific player or team of players while playing the game. The system may include a sports goal and sports ball for use in the game. The system may also include a sensor attached to a player to detect the sports ball when the sensor comes within a predetermined distance of the sports ball. A detector may be provided and coupled to the sports goal to detect the sports ball when the sports ball passes through the sports goal. A control unit may be provided to determine a game statistic corresponding to the player based on a signal received from the sensor attached to the player and a signal received from the detector when the sports ball passes through the sports goal.04-30-2009
