Patent CA-1325986-C (CA)
Inventor: WINSKI ERNEST P
IPC: B65G59/02
Filed: 1987-07-21
Granted: 1994-01-11
Abstract: ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Material handling apparatus and  methods,  especially  for use with loose stacks of paper and the like in pallets.  The inven-tion  includes  depalletizing  apparatus, distributing apparatus, and hopper loading apparatus;  and  material  handling  means for transporting  material  between  the depalletizing apparatus, the distributing apparatus, and the  hopper  loading  apparatus.  The depalletizing operation  includes lateral  sliding of layers of a pallet load onto  a  removal  conveyor  and  then  away  from the pallet.   Significant advantages  are achieved by using a special spacing sheet in the pallet load instead of  slip sheets  and tie sheets.  Fingers  on the pusher extend below individual layers of the load and into the channels in a spacing sheet,  effecting the removal of  even the  bottom layer of papers in a stack.  Similar use of fingers and  channels applies  to operation  of the hopper loader  and  its  control  of  the  bottom  papers  in the stack.    Accumulator apparatus is used as desired for staging appropriate materials  throughout  the  system.   Spacing  sheets  and  empty pallets  are  automatically  removed  from  the  depalletizer, to collection and storage areas.

Abstract: Abstract A DNA sequence element, which activates or enhances expression  of  genes  in  plants has  been  identified  and characterized.   In particular, DNA segments isolated from the upstream region of the T-DNA 780 gene are capable of activating or  increasing transcription levels  of plant-expressible  genes  in  recombinant  DNA-containing  plant tissue.  The 780 gene transcription activator is useful in general for increasing the level of expression of a gene in a plant.  In particular, such activators are useful in the construction of plant-expression complexes which contain a plant-expressible gene placed under the regulatory control of  the  activator.    Such  expression  complexes  can  be introduced into plant tissue where the inserted gene in expressed.
