Abstract: A method of arranging cyclic patterns in a tire tread is
disclosed, wherein design cycles in each cyclic pattern are
repeated in a pitch sequence; with respect to each of the design
cycles, an averaged pitch of the pitch lengths of a predetermined
number of subsequent design cycles is obtained; combinations of
the sequences of the averaged pitches are defined by changing
phase between the sequences; with respect to the averaged pitches
of the combined sequences, crossover averages are obtained; from
the crossover averages in each combination, a difference between
a maximum and a minimum is obtained; from the differences of the
combinations, a combination having a smaller difference is found;
the cyclic patterns are arranged in accordance with the phase
shift of the combination having the smaller difference.

Abstract: A frame configuration for use on a trailer such that it is
operable in both a tilt mode of operation and a dump mode.
An actuating mechanism includes a linear
actuator that is supported on the frame by a bracket and a
yoke that connects to a load bed to power the vertical

Abstract: A low-cost, fan assisted cooling device is disclosed. The cooling device  10  includes a narrow bottom  11a  and broad top shape  29  to optimize a material versus performance ratio. A plurality of vanes  21  surround a central heat mass  11  and an inside surface  26  of the vanes  21  define a chamber  30  that surrounds the heat mass  11.  A portion of each vane  21  is split into a plurality of fins  23  and both the vanes  21  and the fins  23  have a surface area that increase in a radially outward direction  r  from an axis  Z-Z  of the heat mass  11 . The heat mass  11  includes a boss  13  that is surrounded by a groove  15 . Both the boss  13  and the grove  15  have arcuate surface profiles. The vanes  21,  the fins  23,  the boss  13,  and the groove  15  efficiently dissipate heat when a fan  70  or the like forces air  F  into the chamber  30  thereby producing air flows in three different directions. In a first direction  E , the air flows out of the chamber  30  through the vanes  21.  In a second direction  I,  a low pressure region  ΔP  in the chamber  30  induces air from outside the chamber  30  to flow through the fins  23.  In a third direction  B,  the low pressure region  ΔP  induces an airflow over the groove  15  and boss  13.  Openings  P  between the vanes are angled and offset from an orientation of the fans blades  77  to minimize the airflow shock losses thereby reducing fan noise. The vanes  21  and the fins  23  can be homogeneously formed with the heat mass  11.
