A transmission neutral lever lock is used to lock a transmission direction control lever in a neutral position by swinging a latch into a camming detent connected on a bearing sleeve which supports the transmission direction control lever.

A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture and memory for a component neutral builder interface. The interface comprises a dynamic link library (DLL) stored in the memory of and executable by a computer that is communicatively coupled to the user-definable component and the build utility, and a program interface implemented in the DLL which enforces an interface protocol between the component and the utility having a command set including all interface commands for the user-definable compon...

A neutral start switch for preventing vehicle users from starting or activating a vehicle engine under certain circumstances and for use in connection with a control arm mechanism, which may be attached to a casing of a hydraulic pump.

Date June 28, 1979 A device for detecting and localizing soft gamma and X radiations, comprising an enclosure 10 provided with a window 11 opaque to light and transparent to incident radiations, occupied by a noble gas and provided with electrodes for causing the electrons to drift towards a secondary photon creation space. In said space there reigns an electri...

A self-propelled vehicle includes a main frame which has a main-frame longitudinal axis. First and second powered wheel/suspension assemblies are connected to the main frame near respective first and second ends of the main frame. A steering system includes a hand-held steering controller, in an operator's cab, which turns the first and second wheel/suspension assemblies simultaneously and in opposite directions. A dump box and hydraulic dump box hoist mechanism are supported by the main frame. ...

The steerable wheels of a hydraulically driven vehicle are provided with auxiliary motors which are connected in parallel both with each other and with the motor which powers the main drive wheels. A selector valve permits the motors for the steerable wheels to be optionally connected and disconnected from the reversible, variable displacement main pump. Flow dividers in the hydraulic lines limit the maximum flow of fluid to any one hydraulic motor. The auxiliary motors are of the variable displ...

Method and apparatus for monitoring characteristics of a high energy neutral beam. A neutral beam is generated by passing accelerated ions through a walled cell containing a low energy neutral gas, such that charge exchange neutralizes the high energy ion beam. The neutral beam is monitored by detecting the current flowing through the cell wall produced by low energy ions which drift to the wall after the charge exchange. By segmenting the wall into radial and longitudinal segments various beam ...

A lock assembly for a transmission gear shift lever that uses a detent latch-type lock pivotably mounted to a support structure adjacent to the transmission gear shift lever. Upon rotation of the latch, a locking arm is mated with the gear shift lever thereby securing it in the neutral position. The lock functions primarily as a safety device to hold the gear shift lever of the vehicle's transmission in a neutral position thereby preventing damage or bodily injury that could occur if the shift l...

A two-speed clutch arrangement is disclosed in which an input shaft is drivingly connected to an output drum through a system of clutch shoes so as to alternatively produce direct drive of the output drum, a reduced speed drive, or a neutral condition in which drive is not transmitted to the output drum. The clutch system includes centrifugally actuated primary clutch shoes driven by the input shaft and establishing drive to an inner drum, and two different sets of friction clutches interposed b...

An ion beam neutral detector system, an ion implanter system including the detector system and a method of detecting ion beam neutrals that ensures an ion implant is meeting contamination requirements are disclosed. The detector includes an energy contamination monitor positioned with in an ion implanter system. A method of the invention includes implanting the workpiece using an ion beam, and periodically detecting ion beam neutrals in the ion beam such that adjustments to the ion implanter sys...
