Abstract: An animal feed processor for producing a mixture of baled crop material and a supplemental feed. The animal feed processor comprises a container for receiving baled crop material mounted on a chassis and a hopper for receiving the supplemental feed also mounted on the chassis. A disintegrator for shredding the baled crop material is mounted within the container that also has a slot on one side to discharge the disintegrated baled crop material. The hopper includes an auger mechanism for discharging the supplemental feed from the hopper to the same side of the animal feed processor as the disintegrated baled crop material. The animal feed processor further includes a fork lift mounted on the back end of the chassis for lifting bales into the baled crop material container and a hitch at the front end of the chassis for coupling the animal feed processor to a tractor. In one embodiment of the invention, the hopper is mounted in front of the baled crop material container while in a further embodiment, the hopper is mounted in back of the baled crop material container. The flow of supplemental feed from the hopper may be controlled by adjustable openings from the hopper to the auger as well as by controlling the speed of the motors turning the augers.

IPC: H04L12/437

Granted: 2003-03-18
Abstract: A hub port (300) in a hub of a loop network which automatically bypasses a node port (314) which is generating a particular loop failure initialization sequence. The hub port contains a detection circuit which enables the hub port to detect loop failure initialization data received from its attached node port. Upon detecting such data from an attached node port, the hub port (300) replaces such data with buffer data to be passed to the next hub port. Upon detecting the completion of a loop failure initialization sequence from an attached node port, the hub port enters a bypass node. The hub port no longer passes on output from its attached node port and instead forwards along the internal hub link data received from the previous hub port in the hub loop.  The bypass is maintained until the hub port receives a primitive sequence indicating the recovery of the attached node port. The hub port periodically sends at least one recovery sequence to the node port. When the hub port receives the same recovery sequence back from the node port, the hub port ends the bypass and reinserts the node port back into the hub loop.

Title: Method for detecting transverse mode vibrations in an ultrasonic hand piece/blade
Inventor: GIORDANO JAMES R
IPC: A61B18/00
Filed: 2002-05-16
Granted: 2011-04-19
Abstract: A method for detecting transverse mode vibrations in an ultrasonic hand piece/blade for determining the existence of unwanted vibration in the hand piece/blade. A tracking filter centered at the drive frequency of the generator, is used to monitor the drive frequency of the ultrasonic generator and attenuate the drive signal when it exceeds a predetermined level. The tracking filter has a wide pass band. Alternatively, a tracking filter having a pass band which is divided into several regions is used to avoid other longitudinal resonances, such as a resonance at a second harmonic, or other spectral features that would otherwise detract from the tracking accuracy of the filter.

Abstract: A system and method for stiffening a cutting tool assembly used in cutting laterally relative to a wellbore axis to reduce stresses and cyclical bending of the cutting tool assembly during cutting. A sleeve (60) disposed in an annular space, known as a box relief, defined between the shaft (18) and a peripheral wall (40) of the cutting tool (14). The sleeve (60) is preferably fixed in the annular space (42) by a sleeve ring (70) surrounding a recess in the shaft, but can be coupled to the peripheral wall (40) and/or shaft (18) by, for example, a threaded engagement. As the cutting tool attempts to bend at a connection with the shaft during cutting, creating stresses at the connection, the stresses are distributed throughout the increased contact area of the sleeve with the cutting tool, causing less stress per unit area.

Title: Allocation of channels to radio transceivers
Inventor: TATESON RICHARD EDWARD
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 2000-12-01
Granted: 2008-08-26
Abstract: Each base station in a network has an antenna (1) which is connected in the conventional way to a transceiver (2) for handling normal call traffic on one or more radio channels. In addition there is another transmitter (3) which transmits a test signal on each of several test channels, one for each radio channel available for use by the main transceiver (2). The transceiver also has a receiver (4) for detecting the test channels. The system is controlled by a timer (5) which ensures that the transmitter (3) and receiver (4) do not operate at the same time. The receive times may be random, or may be co-ordinated between individual base stations. When the receiver is in operation, it will detect transmissions of the test signals from other base stations. The signal strength is measured (measurement system (6)) and the result is used by a control system (7) to determine a preference value for each channel: the stronger the signal detected, the lower the preference value. The preference value is used to control an amplifier system (8) which controls the signal strength of each channel transmitted by the transmitter (3). It is also used to control the traffic transceiver (2), by selecting which traffic channels are to be used in accordance with the preference values.

Title: A method for processing lignocellulosic material
Inventor: THOMSEN ANNE BELINDA
IPC: C02F3/28
Filed: 2001-02-19
Granted: 2010-04-27
Abstract: A method wherein lignocellulosic biomass materials are converted into combustible fuel products. In particular, the method is a continuous process, involving wet oxidation or steam explosion, for fermentatively converting such biomass materials into ethanol using a process design that permits all or part of the process water from the ethanol fermentation process to be recycled to reduce the consumption of process water. The effluent from the ethanol fermentation step may be subjected to an anaerobic fermentation step generating methane and a water effluent in which the amount of potentially inhibitory substances is at a sub-inhibitory level, which in turn permits all or part of the effluent water from the anaerobic fermentation step to be recycled into the process.
