Abstract:

Disclosed herein is an interlocking siding panel system for securing to the side of a structure with planar surfaces. When the panel is secured to the structure through the nail strip a full contact strip opposite the nail strip lays flat against the structure causing the panel portion below an point of inflection in the panel to raise up off of the structure creating a gap to facilitate movement of moisture past a locking leg that integrates with the panel below.

Abstract:

A grease pump for railroad tracks operable by vertical deflections of the rail caused by the weight of the train as the train wheels pass over the track. The pump comprises a housing anchored to the ground and connected to a grease source. Pump operating means comprise a rigid beam connected to the track rail at one end and to a pump operating rod at an opposite end. The operating rod is connected to a cap-like pressure member fitting over the housing and operable by the rail deflection movement to draw grease through inlet port means from the grease source and pump the grease through outlet port means to a track lubricator. Check valves are provided in the pump to control the grease flow.

Abstract:

A kit for securing stone veneer panels to a structure, the kit comprising a plurality of stone veneer panels with upper and lower flanges, a plurality of brackets for securing the panels to the structure and a filler panel for placement between adjacent vertically disposed stone veneer panels to fill the gap between the panels. The brackets are secured to the structure through a bracket center mount and also utilize upper and lower wing walls to form a channel for receipt of the flange of the panels.

Abstract:

A railroad friction-modification system for applying a friction modifier to a section of railroad track, the system comprising an external storage tank for storing the friction modifier, a railroad friction-modification assembly for applying the friction modifier, a tube for connecting the external storage tank to the railroad friction-modification assembly, and a mounting assembly for securing the railroad friction-modification assembly to the rail. The railroad friction-modification assembly includes an expandable membrane for storing the friction modifier, an inlet valve for receiving the friction modifier from the external storage tank, a housing for securely containing the expandable membrane, at least one outlet valve for expelling the friction modifier from the expandable membrane upon the application of a force, and a nozzle for directing the expelled friction modifier onto the section of railroad track. The force is applied by the wheel of a railroad car, such that the railroad friction-modification assembly pumps the friction modifier in a peristaltic action.
