Abstract: L'invention concerne un système mécanique simple permettant de commander une transmission à variation continue multi-régime. La transmission en question comprend un variateur (10) et un système d'engrenage comprenant un embrayage à bas régime (CL) et un embrayage à haut régime (CH). L'engagement de l'embrayage à bas régime place la transmission dans le bas régime. L'engagement de l'embrayage à haut régime la place dans le haut régime. Le système de commande comprend un élément de commande (tel qu'un levier) qui peut être déplacé par l'utilisateur le long d'un chemin de commande d'une extrémité de rapport bas à une extrémité de rapport haut. La position de l'élément de commande dicte le rapport du variateur et le rapport de transmission. Le système comprend également un dispositif de commande d'embrayage à bas régime qui vient en prise avec l'embrayage à bas régime lorsque l'élément de commande est entre l'extrémité de rapport bas de son chemin et un point de transition d'embrayage bas, et qui libère l'embrayage à bas régime lorsque l'élément de commande est entre le point de transition d'embrayage bas et l'extrémité de rapport haut de son chemin. Le système comprend en outre une commande d'embrayage à haut régime qui libère l'embrayage à haut régime lorsque l'élément de commande est entre l'extrémité de rapport bas de son chemin et un point de transition d'embrayage haut, et qui vient en prise avec l'embrayage à haut régime lorsque l'élément de commande est entre le point de transition d'embrayage haut et l'extrémité de rapport haut de son chemin. Ainsi, un système mécanique peut être obtenu, lequel gère le rapport de transmission et les changements d'embrayage requis lors d'un changement de régime.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of producing tomato pastes that have increased dietaryvalue, e.g. resulting from the presence of a significant amount of gamma-aminobutyric acid. More in particular, the present method concerns producing tomato pastes from dehydrated processing tomatoes, said dehydrated tomatoes being obtained either by harvesting post-ripened tomatoes that have dehydrated while still on the vine or by harvesting tomatoes that are subsequently dehydrated by drying the intact tomatoes said tomatoes having a cuticle that is permeable to water. The inventors have observed that in order to produce a tomato paste withthe desired high GABA content and optimum taste, the processing tomatoes should be dehydrated to a Brix value within the range of 5-10.

Abstract: A row unit (16) of a planter or seeding machine (10) comprises a seed delivery system (28) that removes the seed (56) from a seed meter (26) by capturing the seed (56) therefrom. The delivery system (28) then moves the seed (56) down to a lower discharge point (78) and accelerates the seed (56) such that the horizontally rearward component of its speed vector is approximately equal to the forward travel speed of the seeding machine (10) such that the seed (56), when discharged has a low or zero horizontal velocity relative to the ground. Rolling of the seed (56) in the trench is thus reduced. Furthermore, as the seed (56) only has a short drop from the outlet to the bottom of the seed trench, the seed (56) has little vertical speed to induce bounce. The delivery system (28) uses a brush belt (60) to capture, move and accelerate the seed (56). By capturing the seed (56) and moving it from the meter (26) to the discharge, the seed (56) is held in place relative to other seeds (56) and the planter row unit (16). As a result, the seeds (56) are isolated from row unit (16) dynamics thereby maintaining seed spacing.
