Abstract: An elongated plastic slide bearing (10) comprises a top (30), sidewalls (32, 34) depending from the top (30), and connecting to walls (36, 44, 48 and 38, 46, 50) that form laterally inwardly extending recesses (40, 42). Lock ribs (62, 64) extend upwardly and inwardly from the inner walls (44, 46) of the recesses (40, 42) to upper edges (66, 68). The upper edges (66, 68) are spaced below the bearing top (30). The bearing (10) is adapted to be set down onto a support beam (14) that includes laterally outwardly projecting lock flanges (22, 24) at its top. The lock ribs (62, 64) contact the lock flanges (22, 24).  When the bearing (10) is pushed downwardly, the lock ribs (62, 64) bend outwardly and allow the lock ribs (62, 64) to move into a position below the lock flanges (22, 24). When that happens, the lock ribs (62, 64) assume substantially unstressed positions in which their upper edges (66, 68) are below the lock flanges (22, 24). The sidewalls (32, 34) and the lock ribs (62, 64) are bendable to allow a floor slat (12) to be snap-fit down onto the bearing (10).

Title: Large scale watercraft storage system
Inventor: MAFFETT WILLIAM C
IPC: B65G1/04
Filed: 2007-03-02
Abstract: In a watercraft storage system a "wishbone" or U-shaped cradle liftable and rotatable by an overhead crane comprises adjustable air filled hull supports to either side of a boat hull and a keel support toward the stem of the watercraft. The cradle central opening clears a cantilever storage rack support beam assembly allowing the watercraft to be lowered onto or raised from the cantilever storage rack support beam assembly by an overhead traveling crane. To substantially reduce any longitudinal swaying of the cradle and watercraft during raising and lowering, a system of diagonal anti-sway bracing cables that automatically retract and extend is employed. In the preferred embodiment, the cradle is lowered into a water-filled channel within the storage structure to re-float the watercraft. A watercraft to be stored can be brought into the channel which contains alignment means to accurately position the watercraft over the cradle. The cradle can thereby be lifted properly, moved to a storage rack location and accurately stored on the cantilever storage rack support beam assembly.

Inventor: MONKELBAAN DANIEL R
IPC: B01F3/04
Filed: 2007-08-14
Abstract: This liquid distributor functions to uniformly distribute a descending liquid stream across the tray for interaction with an ascending vapor stream. It has a feed pipe (6) which delivers the liquid stream to an underlying elongated trough (4). Liquid discharge holes (18) are positioned in the floor (12) of the trough (4). A perforated v-plate (20) positioned within the trough (4) so that liquid from the feed pipe (6) passes through the perforated v-plate (20) before encountering the floor (12) of the trough (4). When liquid passes through the perforated v-plate (20), the stream is divided into smaller streams of lower velocity, providing a more uniform overall flow rate of liquid passing through the trough (4). Liquid is then delivered from the discharge outlets (18) of the trough onto the upper surface of the tray (35) with a substantially uniform flow rate across the trough (4).

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a novel configuration for agricultural tandem disk systems that feature soil finishing systems. This configuration of the finishing system features finishing reels that provide a robust assembly that will require less frequent repair and maintenance. The finishing system also features support arms that allow the user to adjust the position of finishing reels and the downward force applied to the reels. In an exemplary embodiment, the soil finishing reels are located behind two rows of ground breaking disk blades. After the soil is opened by the disks, the finishing reel may be used to break up or split large soil clods created by the disks.  The soil finishing system allows the user to have the soil in an optimized state for germination after one pass of the agricultural system, reducing the number of passes needed to prepare the field.

Abstract: An implantable embolic device having a stretch-resistant member passing therethrough that also serves as a tether for connecting the device to a delivery system. The stretch-resistant member is attached at a proximal and distal end of the device and extends proximally to the delivery device. The proximal attachment point serves to isolate a distal, stretch resisting segment of the member from axial tension placed on a proximal, connecting section of the member. Thus, the portion of the stretch-resistant member being used to connect the embolic device to a delivery device may be placed under tension without placing tension or distorting the implant.
