Title: Fence assembly
Inventor: UNDERWOOD DANIEL CHARLES
IPC: E04H17/16
Filed: 2006-09-01
Abstract: A fence assembly (10) comprising a plurality of panels (11, 12, 13 and 14) with a panel (15) about to be connected to panel (11). The panel (11) is shown in part with a dappled appearance at (16 and 17) due to the inclusion of a shrink-wrap cover applied to the panel (11). All other panels also have a similar coating. The panel (11) has a based form of a rigid mesh. The shrink-wrap material is applied to the mesh as a flat panel. The panel with the shrink-wrap so applied is then folded over at the top and bottom to form rail (18) as a lower rail and (19) an upper rail. The panels taper so the spacing between the upper and lower rails is wider at one end than the other so the panels are effectively left and right handed. A star picket is driven ground through the overlapping rails. A cap is applied to the posts and held by a retainer and pin.

Inventor: TABLER CHARLES P
IPC: B65G35/06
Filed: 2008-09-19
Abstract: A slip tube system is configured to transport a load along a conveying path of an overhead conveyor system. A stationary frame has at least one rotating shaft with a shaft axis extending along the conveying path of the stationary frame, and a movable carriage configured to transport a load along the conveying path. A slip tube is placed on at least one of the least one rotating drive shafts and each slip tube has an inner diameter larger than the outer diameter of a respective drive shaft, and is in rotational sliding engagement therewith. At least one driven wheel is attached to the carriage to engage with an exterior of the slip tube surrounding the at least one rotating drive shaft to push the slip tube into driving engagement with the rotating shaft, and to rotate the slip tube therewith. The driven wheels are canted with respect to a shaft axis of the drive shaft and slip tube, and the canted contact produces a helical loci of engagement between the exterior of the slip tube and each of the driven wheels. As the drive shaft rotates, traction is developed between the rotating shaft and an inner surface of the slip tube, and between an outer surface of the rotating slip tube and the driven wheels to provide sufficient drive force to propel the carriage and the load along the conveying path.

Title: Feature tracing process for m-mode images
Inventor: POON STANLEY SHUN CHOI
IPC: G06V10/25
Filed: 2007-02-23
Abstract: A process for tracing an operator selected feature in an M-mode ultrasonic image comprises selecting a pixel of the selected feature within the M-mode image. A reference region is generated about the selected feature pixel and image intensity values are extracted for the reference region. A time point is selected in the M-mode ultrasonic image wherein the time point is at a different time than the selected feature pixel and a comparison region is generated about the selected time point. Image intensity values are extracted for the comparison region and a difference error is calculated for each location within- the comparison region by comparing the reference region image intensity values with the comparison regions image intensity values. The location that has the smallest difference error is identified as a feature pixel at the time point.
