20090100814 | Non-Powered Roller for Assisting Crop Pick-Up With a Baler - A non-powered rotor windguard improves the baling of stiff crop material such as cornstalks. The windguard comprises plastic teeth spaced evenly along a rotatable shaft. The teeth are generally three-pointed. The engagement of the teeth to the crop material provides the force to rotate the roller windguard. | 04-23-2009 |
20090100815 | GROUND SURFACE SLIDE GUIDE OF A GRASS CUTTER AND GRASS CUTTER - A ground surface slide guide attached to a grass cutter is of light weight and has a large diameter and superior durability, enabling comfortable grass cutting work. The ground surface slide guide has a resin body made of synthetic resin, and a metal hub integrally coupled thereto to rotate together. The resin body is composed of a tubular body and a flange extending upward to the outside from the entire periphery of the lower end of the tubular body and covering the lower surface of the rotary blade. A blade retaining ring pressed against the lower surface of the rotary blade is formed on the outer periphery of the hub, and the blade retaining ring is exposed to the upper end surface of the tubular body. The hub is attached to a drive shaft by a fastener, and the rotary blade is clamped between a blade rest and a blade retaining ring. The lower end of the tubular body serves as a ground contact surface. The metal hub is integrally coupled to the resin body to rotate together. The overall weight is reduced by the resin body, and the lower surface of the rotary blade can be covered over a wide range, thereby improving stability with respect to the surface of the ground. In addition, since wear resistance performance is enhanced by making the thickness of the lower end of the tubular body serving as the contact surface that contacts the ground greater than the thickness of the flange, the durability of the ground surface slide guide can be improved. | 04-23-2009 |
20090113864 | Adjustable striping roller for lawn mower - A lawn mower has a striping roller assembly rotatably attaching a striping roller to a mower deck of the lawnmower. The striping roller assembly includes a mounting bracket connected to the mower deck, the bracket having a top arm that extends from the mower deck in a generally horizontal direction. A roller arm is pivotally mounted on the bracket at a pivot connection. A height adjusting rod attaches to the pivoting roller arm to permit the operator to select different height settings for the striping roller assembly, wherein the height adjusting rod passes through an opening in the top arm of the bracket and is slidable relative to the bracket. A U-shaped connection member having upper and lower legs is positioned such that the upper leg is above and the lower leg is below the top arm of the bracket. A spring biases the U-shaped connection member so that the upper leg is forced toward or against the upper surface of the top arm of the bracket. The assembly further includes a collar on the upper leg, wherein an upper end of the height adjusting rod has a plurality of height-adjustment holes passing through the rod and the collar also has a hole, wherein one of the holes in the rod is aligned with the hole in the collar and a pin is inserted through the holes to fix the collar to the height adjusting rod. | 05-07-2009 |
20090272087 | Yard Debris Catcher - This Yard debris catcher on wheels is for anyone cleaning up Yard clippings, leaves, small branches, or collecting any other type of small debris. The body of the catcher is perforated so if cleanup includes the use of a leaf blower, debris is left in the catcher, yet air is able to pass through. The leaf blower attachment is designed to help reduce the air current coming from a leaf blower so that debris can be gathered into the catcher in a controlled manner. | 11-05-2009 |
20100037577 | Crop Anti-Wrapping Method and Apparatus - An oversleeve for preventing crop material from wrapping around an agricultural implement shaft. The oversleeve is disposed over the implement shaft and affixed to a stripper pan so it does not rotate with the shaft. The oversleeve is preferably made of a polymer composite material. Removal of dirt between the shaft and oversleeve is effected by a helical groove arranged so the dirt is driven to the ends of the oversleeve. | 02-18-2010 |
20100083625 | Mower mate - Is a combination Tool Kit and Lawn Care Product Containment Devise which is strapped over and on top of a Riding Lawn Mower Motor Housing. The Mower Mate will allow for frequently used tools and lawn care products to be kept with the Riding Lawn Mower and application of Lawn Care Products while mowing. | 04-08-2010 |

20110154792 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REMOVAL OF ALGAL BIOMASS FROM LARGE-SCALE ALGAL BIOMASS PRODUCTION SYSTEMS - A method and apparatus for harvesting algal growth on an algal growth medium that is arranged within a floway containing water. A cable coupled to the algal growth medium is pulled by a pulling unit to draw the algal growth medium along the floway and past a vacuum positioned adjacent the algal growth medium. Suction from the vacuum is used to remove or harvest the algal growth on the algal growth medium. | 06-30-2011 |
20110232246 | Device for Erecting Stalk Crop - A device for erecting stalk crop has a holding frame and an erecting tool connected to the holding frame. The erecting tool has a rotatably supported rotation body that has a circular shape and is supported with an outer circumference of the rotational body on a soil surface. The erecting tool has tines that are distributed about the outer circumference of the rotation body and project away from the outer circumference of the rotation body. The tines each have a section projecting past the outer circumference of the rotation body. A longitudinal axis of the sections of the tines is angled at a tine angle relative to the rotational plane of the rotation body. | 09-29-2011 |
20110232247 | HYBRID RICE SEED PRODUCTION METHOD - The invention relates to a method for simplifying hybrid rice seed production procedure and improving the working efficiency of seed production. The method comprises the following steps: (1) breeding small grain CMS or GMS line and corresponding hybrid rice having characteristics of rice ( | 09-29-2011 |
