Wear Bar For Snow Machine Ski
US Patent:
7275751, Oct 2, 2007
Filed:
Oct 8, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/961622
Inventors:
Verlin M. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
International Classification:
B62B 17/00
US Classification:
280 28, 280609
Abstract:
A wear bar assembly is disclosed for aiding in the steering of a snow machine. The assembly may include a wear bar for attachment to a bottom of a snow machine ski and one or more hardened inserts, each insert extending outward from the bottom of the wear bar. The one or more inserts extend outward from the bottom of the wear bar with a varying height. An apparatus for use as a snow machine ski is also disclosed. The apparatus may include a base, a tip formed integrally with the base and extending longitudinally forwardly from the base, a tail formed integrally with the base and extending longitudinally rearwardly from the base, at least one keel disposed to extend downwardly from the base, and the wear bar assembly with progressively varying inserts extending downwardly from the keel.
Suspension For Tracked Vehicles
US Patent:
7533750, May 19, 2009
Filed:
Sep 28, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/540339
Inventors:
Val J. Simmons - Logan UT, US
Kirk Williamson - Logan UT, US
Kirk Williamson - Logan UT, US
Assignee:
Simmons, Inc. - Providence UT
International Classification:
B62M 27/02
US Classification:
180193, 305127, 305128
Abstract:
A suspension for a tracked vehicle providing a wide range of performance characteristics via a user-adjustable spring system within a rear suspension portion. An optimum spring force can depend on the both operator characteristics and local operating conditions. A user is afforded the ability to adjust a rear suspension system to provide desired ride characteristics. A suspension system particularly for long-tracked snowmobiles is disclosed.
Suspension For Tracked Vehicles
US Patent:
7975794, Jul 12, 2011
Filed:
May 19, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/468852
Inventors:
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Assignee:
Simmons, Inc. - Providence UT
International Classification:
B62M 27/02
US Classification:
180193, 180 95, 305120
Abstract:
A suspension system for a tracked vehicle providing a wide range of performance characteristics via a user-adjustable overload spring assembly which engages a rear suspension element. An optimum spring force can depend on the both operator characteristics and local operating conditions. A user is afforded the ability to adjust a rear suspension system to provide desired ride characteristics. A suspension system including a movable stop to define a mechanical relation between a rear suspension arm and a front suspension arm is also disclosed.
Snow Machine Ski
US Patent:
8641055, Feb 4, 2014
Filed:
Mar 5, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/412526
Inventors:
Verlin M. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
International Classification:
B62B 9/04
US Classification:
280 28, 280 22
Abstract:
A ski for a snowmobile is provided with a pair of lateral wings and a central channel for increasing the flow of snow under a gliding surface at the bottom of the ski. The increased flow of snow enhances flotation of the ski. The channel may be formed by two downwardly extending keels. The wings are defined between the keels and outer edges of the ski. The keels may be asymmetric with a shorter keel being positioned toward an outer edge of the snowmobile to improve handling characteristics of a snowmobile.
Snow Machine Ski
US Patent:
2007021, Sep 20, 2007
Filed:
Mar 16, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/687416
Inventors:
Verlin Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val Simmons - Providence UT, US
International Classification:
B62B 19/00
US Classification:
280028000
Abstract:
A ski for a snowmobile or other snow machine is provided with a pair of lateral wings and a central channel for increasing the flow of snow under a gliding surface at the bottom of the ski. The increased flow of snow enhances flotation of the ski. The channel may be formed by two downwardly extending keels. The wings are defined between the keels and outer edges of the ski.
Liquified Fuel Gas Powered Recreational Vehicle
US Patent:
2008014, Jun 19, 2008
Filed:
Nov 2, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/934469
Inventors:
Val J. Simmons - Providence UT, US
Steven Bensen - Providence UT, US
Steven Bensen - Providence UT, US
International Classification:
B62D 55/00
F02M 37/00
F02M 37/00
US Classification:
180186, 123434
Abstract:
An engine system for a motor vehicle including a source of pressurized fuel and an intake system having one or more of a converter unit, a mixer unit, a pressure balance line, and a primer system. The pressure balance line may be configured with offset access to an air stream within the charge tube during operation, leading to improved overall responsiveness of the engine system. A snowmobile and personal watercraft are two motor vehicles finding particular utility for the engine system.
Snow Machine Ski
US Patent:
2010018, Jul 29, 2010
Filed:

Speed Control System
US Patent:
2011031, Dec 22, 2011
Filed:
Jun 21, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/165164
Inventors:
Stanley J. Checketts - Providence UT, US
Val Simmons - Providence UT, US
Val Simmons - Providence UT, US
International Classification:
B60L 15/20
B60T 7/12
B23P 11/00
H05K 13/00
B60T 7/12
B23P 11/00
H05K 13/00
US Classification:
701 22, 295921, 188 67, 29428
Abstract:
The present invention provides a speed control system, a speed control wheel mechanism and a spring compression system where magnetism is used as a unique speed reduction means to control excessive speed of a free rolling wheel, roller or pulley. The action takes place where a plurality of braking fins between two side plates are forced outward by the means of centrifugal force into one or more magnetic braking calipers. The braking fins are retained by the means of springs that are overcome by inertia of the centrifugal force with increasing speed. With the addition of the spring compression system using multiple springs of different compressive resistance over a wire rope or cable, a cushioning effect can be achieved over any given distance depending upon the speed and weight of the vehicle or device.
