Title: Traceability of shellfish using rfid technology
Inventor: GALLANT LUC O
IPC: G01V3/12
Filed: 2009-09-01
Abstract: Traceability of shellfish is a much needed service for the seafood industry.  Current ways of tracing seafood are minimal while tracing of shellfish is nearly nonexistent.  Tracing shellfish is necessary for indicating where the shellfish was fished from, farmed and packed from. Traceability of shellfish involves monitoring the shellfish from harvesting all the way to the end buyer.   Using RFDI and GPS technology, we will capture the exact fishing area of each shellfish by using modern technology in the rubber bands which are used by the fishermen on the claws of the lobster, snow crab, Jonah crab, etc. We will capture and store this data in an accessible database to assist the Department of Fisheries and Ocean as well as our fishermen and consumers. This information will also help the conversation savvy end buyer to know exactly where the products were caught;  country and fishing area.   If there are any diseases reported on some shellfish, it will be easy to pinpoint the exact location where that shellfish came from and it's fishing vessel. This makes it easier for the authorities to concentrate on that area for investigating diseases while limiting the exclusion of that shellfish to only the affected area.  Furthermore, this type of tracing will assist in evaluating small size shellfish (most especially lobster) catch areas versus large size catch areas. This information can be used by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans to limit fishing to the areas where the catch sizes are an acceptable size. It will also be able to determine where the low and high volume catches are and address the situation accordingly.

Abstract: A sickle bar apparatus for cutting vegetation and the like and having an elongated sickle bar member with an equalizing member located behind the sickle bar and joined to the sickle bar adjacent corresponding ends by way of arcuately pivotal end structures so as to form a reciprocating closed loop. Either by way of setting the spacing between of the end structures or by an adjusting mechanism for shortening the length of the equalizing member, or the like, the sickle bar is set to remain in a tensioned condition in the closed loop throughout its reciprocating strokes.  Thus, at any instant during a reciprocating cycle of the sickle bar, the speed and the state of acceleration or deceleration of the sickle bar and equalizing means in the closed loop are the same but in opposite directions so as to provide a linear cancelling of vibrating forces, and the setting of the bar in tension is sufficient to prevent the bar from alternatively experiencing tension and compression.
