INTERLOCKING BLENDING SYSTEM
A blending system is shown and described herein. The blending system may include a base including a motor, a blade selectively and operably engaged with the base, where the motor rotates the blade, a container having an open end and a lid configured to cover the open end. The blending system may also include an interlock system that may include a plurality of induction coils positioned on the base and the container and be in electrical communication with at least one lid sensor, wherein the power is translated through the induction coils to engage a switch device to complete a power circuit to allow a user to operate the motor of the blender.

SAFETY OVERLOAD LINK
The invention relates to a safety link for use in lifting, winching, towing or securing apparatus or similar. The safety link including, a first connection point, a second connection point, and an indicator means positioned substantially between and associated with the first connection point and the second connection point. If an overload force is applied, the forces between the first connection point and the second connection point cause a change in the indicator means, whereby the change indicates the overload to the user so safety checks may be conducted. The invention also relates to a method of use.
Backhoe pedal guards
Disclosed are backhoe pedal guards for covering and protecting the foot pedals of heavy equipment machinery, including backhoes. The backhoe pedal guards are made of steel plate material, or other suitable material. They are configured for installation on or near the floorboard, partially enclosing and protecting the foot pedals, while allowing uninhibited access to the foot pedals by an operator. The backhoe pedal guards act as a safety device to prevent inadvertent engagement of a foot pedal, such as by dropping a tool onto the pedal. In an embodiment, a pair of backhoe pedal guards may be a unitary body connected by a front cross member.

Safety fence and vehicle testing device
A safety fence for a vehicle testing device includes a fixed fence part, a slide fence part, a first angled fence part, and a second angled fence part. The fixed fence part is structured to be arranged substantially in parallel with a wheel of a test vehicle, wherein the test vehicle is placed on a roller exposed through a roller opening of a pit cover. The slide fence part is arranged in parallel with the fixed fence part, and structured to move in a longitudinal direction of the test vehicle. The first angled fence part is attached to an end portion of the fixed fence part, and structured to swing inwardly and outwardly of the fixed fence part. The second angled fence part is attached to an end portion of the slide fence part, and structured to swing inwardly and outwardly of the slide fence part.

PREDICTIVE WARNING SYSTEM
A method, a computer program product, and a computer system warn workers of a hazardous condition on a worksite. The method includes determining at least one outcome involving a worker and at least one worksite object based on conditions of the worksite. The method includes predicting whether a select one of the at least one outcome presents a hazardous condition to the worker. As a result of predicting that the select outcome presents the hazardous condition, the method includes transmitting a signal to a device associated with the worker. The signal triggers a warning to be received by the worker where the device is in a proximity of the worker.
