20120109225 | ORTHOPEDIC IMPLANT INSERTER WITH REMOVABLE JAWS - An orthopedic implant inserter is provided with removable jaws. The jaws are connected to handles of the inserter by retainers. Each retainer includes a shaft and a latch. The shaft is configured to be received within mounting bores of a jaw and the associated handle. The latch is connected to the shaft and movable between a release configuration and a retaining configuration. In the release configuration, the shaft is removable from the mounting bores and the jaw is thereby removable from the associated handle. In the retaining configuration, the shaft is secured within the mounting bores and the jaw is thereby secured to the associated handle. | 05-03-2012 |

20160031579 | NET WRAP AND TWINE REMOVAL SYSTEM AND METHODS - A method of removing a wrapping material from the outer surface of a bale of material including the steps of moving the bale of material to a cutting station, cutting wrapping material along a length of the bale, moving a plurality of rollers into contact with the wrapping material, rotating the rollers relative to the wrapping material until first and second ends of the wrapping material are free to move relative to an outer surface of the bale, placing a first spear of a material wind-up system between the outer surface of the bale and the wrapping material, rotating the material wind-up system to wind the wrapping material around first and second spears, positioning the first and second spears in a generally horizontal plane, and stripping the wrapping material from the first and second spears with a fin that extends downwardly from a carriage of a material removal system and between the first and second spears of the material wind-up station by sliding the carriage toward a distal end of the first and second spears. | 02-04-2016 |

20130240312 | INTEGRATED RETARDER AND FRICTION BRAKE - A brake assembly integrates both an impeller brake and a friction brake into an integrated brake assembly that provides for retarding and/or friction braking in response to a single braking action on a single brake assembly by the operator. In neutral, the impeller brake and the friction brake are disengaged from a brake hub. In a first braking position under a first applied fluid pressure, the brake hub engages the impeller brake for retarding axle rotation. In a second braking position under a second applied fluid pressure, the brake hub frictionally engages the friction brake for frictionally braking axle rotation. | 09-19-2013 |
20140265541 | Machine Axle Housing with Integrated Oil Circulation System - A machine axle housing includes a central body having an oil reservoir and a pair of axle legs. The central body includes a ring gear, an oil channel, and oil port for conveying oil through an oil conduit to each leg. Machine brakes within the central body include at least one disc rotatably adapted to centrifugally move oil radially outwardly of the brakes. A second oil channel collects oil from the disc, and a passageway extends from the second oil channel back to the central body to return oil from the legs back to the central body. The ring gear, first oil channel and first oil conduit define a first oil lubrication sub-system for moving oil from the central body to right and left legs, and the disc, second oil channel, and passageway define a second oil lubrication sub-system for moving oil from the legs back to the central body. | 09-18-2014 |

20140013886 | Axle Porting to Legs - An axle assembly and method for assembling such axle assembly for a vehicle are disclosed. The axle assembly may comprise meshed ring and pinion gears, a center housing portion, and left and right leg housing portions. The center housing portion may include a center housing defining a center cavity in which the bevel gear is disposed, and at least one channel having an entrance port into the center cavity. The axle assembly may include a first conduit configured to branch off of the first channel in a first direction and a second conduit configured to branch off of the first channel in a second direction. Such channels and conduits may be integral to the center housing or substantially external to the center housing. | 01-16-2014 |
