| 20090238026 | IN-CAB CONTROL SYSTEM FOR A FRONT DISCHARGE CONCRETE TRUCK - A control system for a front discharge concrete truck including a joystick positioned within a cab of the truck. In one embodiment, the joystick to connect to both a secondary shift selector and a chute controller. The secondary shift selector is connected to the truck's transmission. By actuating the secondary shift selector, the operator of the truck is capable of placing the truck's transmission in one of a forward condition, a reverse condition, and a neutral condition, without removing the driver's hand from the joystick. Similarly, the chute controller is connected to a discharge chute of the truck to direct the placement of concrete being offloaded from the truck. Thus, substantially concurrently with placing the transmission into one of a forward condition, a reverse condition and a neutral condition, the operator may actuate the joystick to correspondingly actuate the position of the discharge chute via the chute controller. | 09-24-2009 |
| 20100110820 | MOTORIZED BONE CEMENT MIXING AND DELIVERY SYSTEM THAT AUTOMATICALLY TRANSFERS BONE CEMENT BETWEEN THE MIXER AND THE DELIVERY DEVICE AND THAT AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATES THE MIXING AND DELIVERY PROCESSES - A bone cement mixing and delivery system is provided in which separate components of bone cement are mixed together in a mixer to form a bone cement mixture. The mixer includes a paddle for mixing the components in a mixing chamber and a piston that pushes the mixing cement into an attached delivery device. The system further includes a switch that disconnects the drive assembly that actuates the paddle and piston from its power source. The switch is automatically tripped by a follower that moves upon actuation of the drive assembly. Once the cement is mixed and transferred to the delivery device, the follower trips the switch to automatically deactivate the drive assembly. | 05-06-2010 |

| 20080205188 | Under Pedestal Tank Arrangement - Auxiliary fluid tanks associated with transit concrete mixing and dispensing systems are disclosed which include a hydraulic reservoir tank which is adapted to be stowed inside a mixing drum support pedestal. The hydraulic fluid reservoir tank further includes a shaped outer wall defining an enclosed inner space and includes one or more fluid discharge and return connections in the outer wall. The tank is also provided with an internal baffle shape in line with the fluid return connections such that it is addressed by returning hydraulic fluid and deflects and defuses the returning hydraulic fluid so that it thoroughly mixes with cooler reservoir fluid. An auxiliary water tank can also be nested beneath the hydraulic fluid reservoir tank under the hollow support pedestal. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20140269146 | CONCRETE MIXING DRUM DRIVE SYSTEM - A mixing drum system is disclosed. The mixing drum system includes a mixing drum connected to a frame, wherein the mixing drum is configured to rotate about a first axis with respect to the frame. The mixing drum system further includes a motor connected to the frame and having an output shaft, wherein the output shaft is configured to rotate about a second axis that is displaced from the first axis. The mixing drum system includes a first wheel connected to the output shaft of the motor, and a second wheel connected to the mixing drum. The mixing drum system includes a belt wrapped around the first wheel and the second wheel. The motor is configured to rotate the first wheel, which drives the belt, and the belt is configured to rotate the second wheel, which rotates the mixing drum with respect to the frame. | 09-18-2014 |

| 20080247262 | BONE CEMENT CARTRIDGE WITH A RELEASABLY LOCKED DRIVE PISTON, THE PISTON CONFIGURED TO BE UNLOCKED BY A DELIVERY DEVICE - A bone cement mixing and delivery system is provided. The system includes a mixing cartridge for receiving liquid and powder components of bone cement, a mixing blade for mixing the components, and a delivery gun for discharging the bone cement from the mixing cartridge. The mixing cartridge comprises a cylinder having proximal and distal ends with a cylinder wall extending between the ends. A piston is locked at the distal end by a locking member that includes a pair of locking tabs protruding into slots in the cylinder wall. With the piston in the locked position, the mixing blade mixes the components. After mixing, the cartridge is placed in the delivery gun and release buttons on the locking member are engaged by a release mechanism on the delivery gun to release the piston from the locked position. | 10-09-2008 |
| 366048000 | Wheelbarrow-type support | 1 |
| 20150023123 | Apparatus and Method for Mixing Materials - A portable mixing apparatus is adapted for mixing materials in a wheelbarrow or other container and is removably attached to a mixer support stand using at least one pivot point. The portable mixer includes a drive mechanism and a mixing body where the mixing body is repositionable in three dimensions, allowing for maximum flexibility in positioning the mixing body within the interior space of the wheelbarrow. Once the mixing body has been positioned, the mixing body is rotated by means of the drive mechanism, which is affixed to the mixing body. The mixing body includes a plurality of mixing blades or paddles that will extend below the upper edge of the wheelbarrow frame and engage the materials to be mixed contained within the interior space of the wheelbarrow. The drive mechanism may be a hand crank or motor driven mechanism. A removable liner is also included in certain embodiments. | 01-22-2015 |

| 20110194371 | MOTORIZED BONE CEMENT MIXING AND DELIVERY SYSTEM THAT ALLOWS A USER TO DETACH THE DELIVERY DEVICE FROM THE MIXER FOR DELIVERY - A bone cement mixing and delivery system including a mixer and a delivery device. The mixer includes a paddle for mixing the components and a piston that pushes the mixed cement into the attached delivery device. The delivery device includes a tube into which the bone cement is forced from the mixer, and a plunger that forces the cement out of the tube during the medical procedure. The tube includes an entry port through which cement is introduced into the tube from the mixer. A one-way valve attached to the tube allows the cement to flow from the mixer through the entry port. After the cement is loaded in the tube, the delivery device is removed from the mixer. The valve blocks flow out of the entry port when the plunger is depressed. | 08-11-2011 |
| 20120218851 | MOTORIZED BONE CEMENT MIXING AND DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH A FLEXIBLE DELIVERY EXTENSION TUBE AND ENLARGED CONNECTOR FOR DELIVERING CEMENT INTO LIVING TISSUE - A bone cement mixing and delivery system including a mixer, a delivery device, and a flexible extension tube. A connector is attached to a distal end of the flexible tube. The connector includes a housing, a spindle configured with a fitting, and an enlarged knob. The spindle is seated within the housing and is configured to rotate between a closed and open position. In the open position, the spindle allows flow from the delivery device flexible extension tube into a bore of the spindle and into the spindle fitting. A delivery cement cannula is attached to the spindle fitting for allowing cement to travel from the delivery tube into living tissue. The enlarged knob is used to rotate the spindle from an open to a closed state and vice versa. | 08-30-2012 |
