AGGREGATE DEWATERING DEVICE AND METHOD
A dewatering device for aggregate product can be used to retro-fit existing aggregate product dewatering facilities in order to more efficiently capture product. The dewatering device can be movable to allow for the portability of the device relative to existing dewatering facilities. The device is adapted to receive a slurry of aggregate product and water and to vibrate to dry the aggregate product. A recycle system is included to receive any fines that may otherwise be lost by the system. The recycle system captures the fines and redirects them back towards the vibrating process of the vibrating device to direct them towards an exit of the vibrating device in order to use said fines as well as the other dewatered aggregate product. The portability of the device allows the device to be used with the existing facilities without the need to completely replace existing components for dewatering aggregate product.
Hay bale dryer
The present invention provides a hay bale dryer, comprising: a platform, the platform dimensioned to support the hay bale; a spike rack movably coupled to the platform, the spike rack having a plurality of spikes, each spike having a plurality of slots and each spike dimensioned to penetrate through the hay bale; a fan coupled to the spike rack and operative to blow air through the slots in the spikes, wherein the spike rack is raised to permit loading and unloading of the hay bale, and lowered to permit drying of the hay bale via the air blown through the spikes.
DEVICE FOR CONVEYING AND FEEDING WET MATERIAL FOR CROSS-FLOW HOT AIR COMBINE HARVESTER
A device for conveying and feeding wet material for a cross-flow hot air combine harvester, the device consisting of a hot air pumping part and a material conveying part. The hot air pumping part uses an air suction pump (4) to pump a flow of hot waste air from an engine radiator (1) of the combine harvester by means of an air suction pipeline (3) so as to provide hot air flow for the material conveying and feeding device. The material conveying part consists of a chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) and a cross-flow air chamber structure (B), wherein the chain harrow-type conveying groove structure (A) is located at an upper part of the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) and is used for forcibly conveying and feeding a material; and the cross-flow air chamber structure (B) uses hot air to dry the material, blows to assist in feeding the material, and uses a cross-flow air wheel (14) to forcibly feed the material. By using excess heat that is generated by the engine of the combine harvester to perform auxiliary blowing and drying during the process of conveying and feeding a wet material, the feeding device may lower the temperature of the engine and reduce the effects of heat radiation and ageing that high temperatures have on surrounding devices, and may lower the water content of a wet agricultural material, thus preventing blockages produced because of moisture.
DRYING SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE
A drying system for a vehicle includes an airflow intake duct structured to be mountable to the vehicle so as to reside exterior of the vehicle. The airflow intake duct includes an intake duct airflow passage structured to receive an airflow therein from outside the vehicle when the vehicle is moving. An airflow duct is structured to be coupled to the intake duct so as to reside in an interior of the vehicle and so as to receive therein the airflow from the intake duct when the intake duct is mounted exterior of the vehicle. The airflow duct includes a plurality of holes structured to enable discharge of a portion of the airflow from the airflow duct into the interior of the vehicle.
Aggregate dewatering device and method

The portability of the device allows the device to be used with the existing facilities without the need to completely replace existing components for dewatering aggregate product.
Tonneau cover with integrated drying cavity
A tonneau cover for a vehicle cargo includes a first panel having a first opening structured to enable fluid communication between a first side of the first panel and a second side of the first panel opposite the first side. The tonneau cover defines at least one airflow passage in fluid communication with the first opening and extending along the second side of the first panel.
TONNEAU COVER WITH AIRFLOW PASSAGES EXTENDING BETWEEN DIFFERENT SIDES THEREOF
A tonneau cover for a vehicle cargo bed includes at least one first airflow passage extending between a first side of the tonneau cover and a second side of the tonneau cover opposite the first side, and at least one second airflow passage separate from the first airflow passage and extending between the second side of the tonneau cover and at least one side of the tonneau cover other than the second side.
TONNEAU COVER WITH INTEGRATED DRYING CAVITY
A tonneau cover for a vehicle cargo includes a first panel having a first opening structured to enable fluid communication between a first side of the first panel and a second side of the first panel opposite the first side. The tonneau cover defines at least one airflow passage in fluid communication with the first opening and extending along the second side of the first panel.
AIR CONDITIONER FOR VEHICLE
An air conditioner for a vehicle is provided and includes a dryer which is connected to an indoor air conditioner that adjusts the temperature and humidity within a vehicle. The air conditioner simultaneously dries a dry subject such as clothes, shoes or the like.
Drying apparatus
A drying apparatus is disclosed that includes at least a first absorbent layer and a waterproof layer attached to the first absorbent layer to form a drying body. At least three elongated handles can extend from radially from the drying body. Wet items such as food can be placed on the drying body and the elongated handles can be brought together to wrap the drying apparatus around the items. The elongated handles can be grasped by a user's hand and the drying apparatus can be swirled or slung by the elongated handles to force water and moisture from the items and into the absorbent layer of the drying apparatus to dry the items.
