A work machine includes a machine frame and a cab supported from the machine frame. At least one pivotal connection between the cab and the machine frame allows the cab to be tilted relative to the machine frame. The pivotal connection includes first and second clevises fixed to the machine frame, the first and second clevises including first and second aligned pin openings, respectively. A pivot pin is received through the pin openings so that the pivot pin is pivotable relative to the machine frame. A viscous mount includes a housing portion, a plunger portion, and a flexible element connecting the plunger portion to the housing portion. The housing portion is attached to the cab, and the plunger portion is attached to the pivot pin between the first and second clevises such that the cab and the viscous mount are pivotable with the pivot pin relative to the machine frame.

Cab viscous mount

A vehicle is disclosed which includes a frame with a viscous isolator, a first pin receptor, a retainer, a cab, and a pin. The first pin receptor includes a base portion mounted to the viscous isolator and a top portion movable within a limited range relative to the frame. The retainer is detachably mounted to the frame such that the top portion of the first pin receptor protruding through an aperture in the retainer, and the base portion of the first pin receptor is below the aperture. A pin is received by the top portion of the first pin receptor and a second pin receptor included in a cab, rendering the cab tiltable relative to the frame about the pin. The aperture of the retainer and the base portion of the first pin receptor are each configured such that the base portion cannot pass through the aperture.

Control grip

A control grip is disclosed for off-road vehicles that functions as a combined stabilizing support and multi-function implement control device for the vehicle operator. The control grip includes a structural frame providing a mounting base with upright supports for a grab bar. The control grip mounts various control switches, which can vary in quantity, configuration, position and function depending on the work vehicle type. In one configuration, a pair of control switches are mounted at the distal end of the control grip, one switch positioned for manipulation by the operator's thumb for controlling a first range of motion of the implement, and a second switch positioned to be manipulated by the operator's thumb and/or index finger for controlling the implement's second range of motion. The control switch placement enables the operator to actuate one or both of the switches while maintaining a firm grip on the grab bar during operation.

Multi-function control grip for work vehicles

A water dispensing device for dispensing water at a location remote from a water purification unit and methods of using the water dispensing device and methods of operating such remote water dispensing devices. The water dispensing device includes a dispensing gun, a support structure for the dispensing gun, and a manifold hydraulically coupling the water purification unit with the dispensing gun for supplying a stream of water from the water purification unit to the dispensing gun. The water dispensing device is also equipped with a flow control valve operative for selectively directing the stream of water from the manifold to the dispensing gun. Equipping the remote water dispensing device with a manifold and flow regulation device permits the flow of water to be regulated locally at the water dispensing device, in contrast to regulation only at the water purification unit.

Remote water dispensing device and methods for operating such remote water dispensing devices

A water purification system for purifying water flowing through a water flow path. The system includes a water purification device having an inlet and an outlet in the water flow path and at least one interior volume communicating with the inlet and outlet. A purification medium is disposed within the interior volume of the water purification device. A flow control system is provided controlling a volume of purified water dispensed from the outlet. The flow control system includes an input device configured to allow a user to input a desired volume of purified water to be dispensed from the outlet and a sensing device coupled with the electronic input device and operative to determine the volume of purified water being dispensed from the outlet. A flow regulation device is coupled with the flow control system and operative to stop the discharge of purified water at the outlet upon reaching the desired volume of purified water.

Water purification system and method including dispensed volume sensing and control

A filter assembly for a water purifying apparatus including a plurality of cartridges. Each cartridge includes first and second ends and an interior volume containing a filtering medium. A plurality of end caps are respectively connected with the first ends of the plurality of cartridges and each end cap includes a water inlet and a water outlet. A removable manifold is coupled with the water inlets and water outlets and the manifold includes a pair of auxiliary ports. One auxiliary port directs water from the cartridge assembly to an auxiliary processing device and another auxiliary port directs the water from the auxiliary processing device back to the filter assembly. The water inlets and water outlets extend generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of each cartridge. The cartridge includes an outer tubular member in fluid communication with the water inlet and an inner tubular member in fluid communication with the water outlet. The inner tubular member has a first end connected in a sliding manner to the first end cap and a second end rigidly affixed to the second end cap.
