Abstract: ARRANGEMENT IN GATHERING MOUTH FOR BEAN AND PEANUT HARVESTER, comprising a gathering roll (16) which, rotating at an anticlockwise direction, gathers the branches of bean or peanut that are already pulled out and bunched, throwing them upwards and backward to the dragging roll (37) or above the rolls (55-54) and, afterwards, to the dragging roll (37) that, in turn, leads the gathered product to the press cylinder (23), so that this movement itself makes the land and some other small particles to be removed by the sieve or screen ( 14) of the mouth (9); said press cylinder (23) receives and removes the product from the mouth and lead it to the beating cylinder (28) which, in turn, works in the longitudinal-horizontal direction and its tracking system is axial, thereby allowing to speed up or to delay the flow of the product to be trodden out, carrying it through the screen (27), which works for allowing grains and small particles to pass over, stopping the large particles that are carried to the outlet of straw placed in the right back side of the machine. On said set, the vibrating sieve (26) is placed, which receives the trodden out product together with the small particles, such as straw and land, and, through its long extension, removes the land by an outflow system and allow the product ready for being cleaned by a stream of air (30). The product entirely cleaned is carried to the gutter (31-33) and, from this point on, the chained container lift (34) carries the product entirely cleaned to the bulk section (36).

Title: Borehole conductivity profiler
Inventor: KELLER CARL E
IPC: E21B47/10
Filed: 2003-10-08
Abstract: A method of using an everting borehole liner to perform fluid conductivity measurements in materials surrounding a pipe, tube, or conduit, such as a borehole below the surface of the Earth. A flexible liner is everted (turned inside out) into the borehole with an internal pressurized fluid. As the liner displaces the ambient fluid in the borehole into the surrounding formation, the rate of descent of the liner is recorded. As the impermeable liner covers the flow paths in the wall of the hole, the descent rate slows. From the measured descent rate, the flow rates out discrete sections of the borehole are determined.

Filed: 2003-12-22
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une technique de détection de clivage induit par nucléase d'un acide nucléique cible via l'hybridation d'un acide nucléique cible avec une sonde oligonucléotide marquée par fluorescence complémentaire de l'acide nucléique cible et contenant un fluorophore à une terminaison et un groupe d'extinction à l'autre terminaison. Lorsque la sonde est hybridée avec l'acide nucléique, cette sonde adopte une conformation qui place le fluorophore et l'extincteur dans une telle proximité que l'extincteur éteint le signal fluorescent du fluorophore et la formation hybride sonde-cible entraîne une séparation suffisante du fluorophore et de l'extincteur pour réduire l'extinction du signal fluorescent du fluorophore. L'hybridation étant faite, cette technique met l'hybride sonde-cible en contact avec un agent possédant une activité nucléase dans une quantité suffisante pour cliver sélectivement l'acide nucléique cible et libère ainsi la sonde intacte. On mesure ensuite la détection de la libération de la sonde en suivant un affaiblissement du signal fluorescent du fluorophore comparé au signal de l'hybride sonde-cible.
