Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110146711APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CLEANING CULVERTS - An apparatus and method for cleaning culverts or pipes employing an extendable mechanism for generally horizontal cleaning of a culvert or pipe that might be blocked by debris. The apparatus may be powered by tractor-like devices and insertable into a debris filled culvert or pipe and rotated to dislodge debris. The apparatus may include one or more tines or screw-like blade that bites into and dislodges debris. A pull-out device and brush tool is also provided.06-23-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090320458Exhaust gas deflector for system for generating electric power - A system for deflecting a flow of exhaust gas may include a tubular member configured to provide flow communication between a muffler and an exhaust gas exit. The system may further include a surface configured to at least partially divert a flow of exhaust gas from a first direction to a second direction generally orthogonal to the first direction. The system may also include at least one arm operably coupling the tubular member and the surface to one another.12-31-2009
20090321180Roof-mounted muffler for system for generating electric power - An exhaust system for an electric power generation system is disclosed. The exhaust system may include a muffler configured to suppress noise associated with operation of an engine associated with the electric power generation system. The muffler may be configured to be mounted in a roof of a housing configured to contain at least part of the electric power generation system. The muffler may be configured to form an outside surface of the roof. Removal of the engine from the housing may be facilitated by removal of the muffler from the roof, such that the engine can be lifted out of the housing.12-31-2009
20090322096Thermal shield for system for generating electric power - A thermal shield for a system for generating electric power may include a sheet of material configured to be operably associated with an engine of the system for generating electric power such that heat from the engine is deflected back toward the engine. The sheet of material may define a generally rectangular shape defining a length dimension and a width dimension, and the length dimension may be configured to generally correspond to a length defined by the engine.12-31-2009
20090323259Cooling arrangement for system for generating electric power - A cooling arrangement for a system for generating electric power may include at least one heat exchanger configured to cool air entering an engine operably associated with the system. The arrangement may further include a first fan configured to supply air to the at least one heat exchanger, and at least one radiator configured to cool engine coolant. The arrangement may also include a second fan configured to supply air to the at least one radiator. The arrangement may be configured such that air supplied to the at least one radiator is not supplied to the at least one heat exchanger prior to being supplied to the at least one radiator.12-31-2009
20090325421Flexible shroud for power cables - A flexible shroud is configured to protect a connection between at least one power take-off cable and a power generation system. The shroud may include a sheet defining at least one edge, the sheet being flexible and including weather-resistant material. The shroud may include at least one flange operably coupled to the sheet along at least a portion of one edge of the sheet, and at least one securing element associated with another edge of the sheet. The flange may be configured to be operably coupled to a power generation system. The sheet may be configured to be wrapped at least partially around at least one power take-off cable extending from the power generation system, and the at least one securing element may be configured to keep the sheet at least partially wrapped around the at least one power take-off cable.12-31-2009
