Title: Internal opening and closing system for v-rakes
Inventor: TONUTTI CARLETTO
IPC: A01D78/00
Filed: 2002-03-28
Granted: 2009-09-01
Abstract: A bifold rake for forming a windrow of cut agricultural crop material includ es a rear trolley (22) to which a pair of rake arms (30) are pivotably mounted, and a drawbar (44) extending forwardly from the rear trolley and adapted for interconnection with a two vehicle such as a tractor. Each rake arms (30) carries a series of rake members (32). An opening and closing mechanism (105 ) is interconnected between the drawbar and the rake arms, and includes front (110) and rear (106) operating arms located on each side of the drawbar and pivotably interconnected with each other and with one of the rake arms. The inner end of each front and rear operating arm is pivotably interconnected with a slidable arrangement associated with the drawbar. In one form, the slidable arrangement is a sleeve (102) that is slidably mounted to the drawb ar for axial movement. In another form, the slidable arrangement is the form of a telescoping section of the drawbar which is capable of moving inwardly and outwardly relative to a receiver section of the drawbar. An extendible and retractable actuator assembly, such as a hydraulic cylinder assembly (104), is interconnected with the drawbar and at least one of the slidable arrangement s for moving the front and rear arms together and apart so as to move the rake arms between open and closed positions. A splitter wheel rake assembly is interconnected between the drawbar and a hitch member, for directing crop material in opposite directions away from the center of the trolley to rake the crop material into a windrow. The splitter wheel rake assembly includes a frame arrangement having a pair of offset frame members, and a splitter rake member (78) mounted to each offset frame member. The splitter rake members a re configured to direct the crop material in opposite directions. The splitter wheel rake assembly is selectively engageable with the drawbar.

Abstract: In a parking system having one or more payment terminals for receiving payment for parking spaces, an information processing centre for receiving transaction and alarm information from the payment terminals, one or more enforcement terminals and a two-way telecommunications network for transmitting information in real time between the information processing centre and the payment and the enforcement terminals, an enforcement system and a method where a minimal amount of data is sent to enforcement terminals while in use in the field. The enforcement terminals are preloaded with parking space graphic. Occupancy data, which includes only the data necessary to provide expiry information such as, for instance, a data bit for each space indicating if it is "paid" or if it is "expired", is transmitted in real time to the enforcement terminal. The occupancy data may be transmitted periodically or on demand by the enforcement terminal. In this approach, significant data packet network costs can be saved as the network costs are usually based on volume of data flow.
