| 20120012492 | STORAGE SYSTEM WITH COLLAPSIBLE BIN - Improved collapsible bins are provided for storing goods, such as solids, semi-solids, or fluids. In various embodiments, the bins have a base about the same size as a pallet to facilitate handling and storage. Bins include a plurality of sidewalls (typically four), a cover, and a base. The base includes a floor-mounted sump for discharging the contents of the bin. The bin sidewalls and cover hingably connect to the base, and the sidewalls and cover can collapse and nest inside the base to reduce the storage space consumed by empty bins. Further provided are storage systems which include a collapsible bin and a bag liner disposed in the bin. | 01-19-2012 |

| 20100223898 | TWO PIECE PERIPHERAL MOWER BLADE - The improved peripheral mower blade is designed to cut and mulch grass at high volume, while being easy to change. The blade is constructed of two pieces, making replacement of the blades more efficient. The blades attach to a shaft via spaced apart hubs to which the pieces attach, and the two pieces of the blade interlock to provide a blade that is as strong as a one piece peripheral mower blade. | 09-09-2010 |
| 20100308140 | POULTRY LITTER REJUVENATING MACHINE - A poultry rejuvenating machine for attachment to a tractor includes a deck with an offset front frame attached to the top and front of the deck for attachment of the machine to a power-transfer output and a three-point hitch of a tractor. A rotating shaft is housed within the deck, and a plurality of peripheral blades are coaxially and equidistantly held on the shaft by bushings. Height adjustable skids attached to the bottom of the deck space the blades about 1 inch from the floor of a poultry house. A guide is provided on a projecting end of the deck, and a belt drive is provided on the other end of the deck that is drivingly engaged to the shaft. The machine traverses a poultry house to cut, turn and rejuvenate poultry litter. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20110258979 | Cotton Stalk Removal Apparatus - A cotton stalk remover apparatus is provided for attachment to a cotton harvesting machine. The removal apparatus is placed in-line behind each harvesting head or operated as a separate machine. The removal apparatus includes a blade section having a rotating blade that lifts and damages cotton stalks. The cotton stalks are released rearward from the blade section assisted by the rotating blade. The blade may have four peripheral blades, and the blade may be assisted in ejecting the cotton stalks by an directional device section having a rotating walker or alternatively a spiral auger that moves the top section of cotton stalks downward and rearward. The lifting and de-rooting of the cotton stalks by the blade may be assisted by a pulling section that includes rotating spindles with spiral flanges that grab, lift and release the stalks immediately prior to the stalks entering the blade section. | 10-27-2011 |

| 20090037857 | METHODS FOR DESIGN RULE CHECKING WITH ABSTRACTED VIA OBSTRUCTIONS - Methods of treating via obstructions during design rule checking. The method comprises examining the size of the via obstruction with respect to a minimum size and a minimum spacing constraint of a design rule. Based upon the comparison, a neighboring via count for a number of via shapes neighboring the via obstruction may be initialized to equal a positive integer. Based upon the comparison, the via obstruction may be represented with a plurality of smaller via shapes during design rule checking. | 02-05-2009 |

| 20090030770 | Dynamic and predictive information system and method for shipping assets and transport - The dynamic, predictive information system and method assigns shipping assets (drivers-tractors-trailers) from carriers to transport orders by shippers. Computer databases hold shipping asset data. Specific transport orders are electronically joined to specific driver-tractor-trailer combinations. A search and sort routine produces resulting records based upon proximity, trailer type, proximity of the joined driver-trailer combination, carrier service region and pick-up and delivery date constraints. The sort is by price or performance indicators which are pre-selected shipper ranges matched to historical shipping data from carriers. The system books the carrier, the driver-tractor-trailer combination and the shipper to transport order with an electronic communications phase. In a truck lane scenario, the system joins a specific driver and a specific tractor and a non-specific trailer to a specific transport order. GPS data and electronic shipping document data from PDAs with the drivers is logged into the system and is viewable by the participants. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20100095788 | Weight-on-Gear Sensor - A weight-on-gear sensor for use on an aircraft with landing skids having a bracket and a displacement sensor attached to the bracket is disclosed. The bracket has a center member connecting a first end member to a second end member. The center member has a centerline and the end members extend from the centerline of the center member. Mounting members extend along the centerline of the center member to facilitate attachment of the bracket to a cross tube. The displacement sensor connects the first end member to the second end member. The displacement sensor is parallel to, and offset from, the centerline of the center member so that when a bending moment is applied to the center member the first displacement sensor is either elongated or shortened. | 04-22-2010 |
