Granted: 2008-05-13
Abstract: A turf sweeping machine having a frame, front and rear wheels coupled to the frame and an elongated chute mounted to the frame, the chute having an exit and an entrance at a level proximate to the grass of the turf. Rubber skirts are affixed to the chute and extend down to the grass of the turf across front, rear, and side walls of the chute. A rotatable brush is mounted to the frame, proximate to a bottom of the chute and extends across a width of the frame so that the brush brushes grass of a turf support surface. A hopper, which is also mounted on the frame, has an opening j.n fluid communication with the exit of the chute, and is positioned to receive material swept up the chute by the brush. A means for rotating the brush is provided. A partial vacuum is created by rotation of the brush within the confines of the skirts and chute. This vacuum assists the brush in picking up waste material from the support surface.

Title: Hitch alignment device
Inventor: GROH ORTWIN W
IPC: B62D63/08
Filed: 2005-04-14
Granted: 2010-04-13
Abstract: A detachable vehicle - trailer coupling alignment system with a signal device to show a stop point to an operator using side mirrors, while reversing a vehicle to a trailer for the purpose of coupling the two, typically at a ball and hitch. The vehicle unit utilizes a friction fit clip that fastens to a vehicle's tow ball neck supporting it so that distal ends of equal length support beams extend beyond the sides of the vehicle with visible end markers which can be seen through side view mirrors. The trailer unit also comprises of distal ends of equal length support beams with visible end markers visible to side view mirrors, supported by a pivoting adjustable friction fit clip mounted to the hitch. Being of equal length, the distal ends of support beams on either side of the vehicle and trailer permit the end markers to visually line up or come together as viewed by the driver through the rear view mirrors when the ball and hitch are accurately lined up for a positive connection. The markers permit the driver to align the vehicle unit to the trailer unit while reversing the vehicle, and therefore aligns the tow ball to the trailer hitch as those units are mounted to these parts specifically and respectively. A trigger switch on the trailer unit is deployed to activate the signal device, which may be a light visible to the operator indicating the stop point, when in contact with the vehicle ball. The pivot point is in proximity to the hitch socket to facilitate alignment at different angles of attack.

Abstract: A hook-setting device resists the force of a fish strike on a fly and also indicates a strike by its movement in the water. The device includes an open cup-shaped flange with a generally concave front surface that faces the fly, preferably with no structure between the front surface and the fly. The generally convex rear surface of the flange has a recess with a radial bottom wall including a slit. A float front end is received in the recess, and is fixed to the flange by an elastic gripping member that abuts against a front surface of the radial wall, extends through the slit and the float, and abuts against the rear end of the float. In addition to fixing the float to the flange, the elastic gripping member fixes the float-flange combination to the leader so that it does not slide on the leader.

Abstract: A radially expandable stent-graft and method of making the same, including at least one stent member encapsulated between at least two longitudinally expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) coverings. The at least one stent member (22) has openings through watt surfaces of the stent to permit radial expansion. The at least two longitudinally expanded ePTFE coverings (24,26) are circumferentially applied over the at least one stent member in their unsintered state, and sintered during application of a circumferential pressure to bond the ePTFE around and through the wall surfaces of the stent (22). The sintered ePTFE forms a substantially continuous, monolithic and integral encapsulation of the at least one stent. Upon radial expansion of the stent graft (10), the stent and the ePTFE node-fibril microstructure radially deform. Radial deformation of the ePTFE encapsulation results in nodal elongation in the ax is of radial expansion. After radial expansion of the stent-graft (10), a substantial bonded area remains intact and maintains the encapsulation of the stent in vivo.
