A transfer terminal is shown for off-loading dry, flowable, granular material from large transportation vehicles such as trucks or barges to smaller transport trucks. A pouch within a tank is provided for receiving the material, which material is distributed to storage silos. A single elevator is used to load the pouch and all storage silos. By aeration of the materials, a very low angle of repose is created for the material, which allows the material to flow at a very low angle, both to and from the various silos. Material being loaded into a transport truck flows through the pouch.

Methods and apparatus for an optical system for LEDs for control of light output from the LEDs. A plurality of optical pieces may be provided with each being over one or more LEDs and configured to direct a majority of light output from such one or more LEDs toward a desired illumination direction. A shield array may be placed over the optical pieces and include a plurality of openings each sized to at least partially receive one of the optical pieces and a plurality of blocking shields extending upward from and provided partially over one of the openings and one of the individual optical pieces. The blocking shields block stray light rays that are transmitted from one of the individual optical pieces in a backlight direction away from the desired illumination direction.

The portable head support device of the present invention provides comfortable support for a user's head while the user is in a sitting potion. The pillow or cushion has a v-shape on the top where a user's chin can rest so that the head cannot fall forward or sideways but will stay in a comfortable and upright position. The pillow is held in place by hook and loop fasteners located on the pillow and, for instance, on straps extending from behind the user's back and over the shoulders or wraparound supports wrapped around standard seat belts. The head support can be used in child car seats to keep a child's head in a safe and stable position while they sleep.

A window lighting system may include a frame () defining a perimeter of a window (). The frame may have a hollow interior. A driver (), which may be located within the hollow interior or external to the window lighting system, may be configured to drive one or more light sources (). A lens () may be disposed along the hollow interior to focus light emitted by the one or more light sources across a surface of the window or into an interior of a building.

Illuminated curtain wall

A curtain wall having integrated lighting, comprises a first series of transoms (), a second series of mullions (), at least one of the first transoms and the second mullions having an extruded first member () having a hollow interior, a driver () positioned within the hollow portion of the first member, a second member () connected to the first member, the second member having a lens () disposed along an outer side of the second member to illuminate one of an outer fa&#xe7;ade of a building or an area adjacent said fa&#xe7;ade.

Light column

A luminaire reflector assembly comprises a top pan having a light socket connected to one of an upper or lower surface of the top pan, the top pan having a plurality of spaced slits about the periphery of the top pan, a lower pan spaced from the top pan, the lower pan connected to the top pan by at least one strut, a plurality of reflective panels extending between the top pan and the lower pan, the plurality of reflective panels bent in a first direction by a punch and an elastomeric die pad, the plurality of reflective panels also bent in a second direction by the punch and elastomeric die pad.

Reflector assembly and method of making same

A luminaire is provided with a housing having an attachment element and a LED mounting element. A plurality of LEDs are also provided and are supported by the LED mounting element of the housing. A plurality of reflectors are positioned proximal to the plurality of LEDs and reflect light emitted by the LEDs toward an illumination surface.

Vertical luminaire

A pivot and tilt apparatus for positioning a member comprises a first pivot assembly having a first pivot post at a first end thereof rotatable about a first axis for engaging the member and an annulus at a second end thereof and a second pivot assembly having a second pivot post rotatable about a second axis for engaging the annulus of said first pivot.

Pivot and tilt apparatus

A restraint for hands having hand cuffed wrists comprises: an inner pouch for use to separate the hands; an outer pouch for use over the inner pouch; and the provision on the outer pouch for securing the inner pouch and the outer pouch to handcuffed wrists.
