Abstract: Positioning of surgical nails such as IMN can be complicated by the need for accuracy despite variations in manufacturing tolerances and distortion upon installation within a bone. It is known to use Fluoroscopic techniques but this leads to high exposures by patients as well as surgical teams and the process is slow. By use of a locator with a calibration arch and rod upon which a reference marker can be provided consistence of relative positioning of a positioning block for drilling and a distal end of a surgical nail can be provided between pre and post insertion into a bone for a nail. Furthermore by using an adjustable arm with extension as well as a universal joint the arm can position a positioning block for correct drilling and so utilization of distal end locking of a nail. The nail is pre calibrated prior to insertion into a bone then the nail detached for insertion with subsequent re-assembly between the nail and positioning arrangement then returning the positioning block to the desired position relative to the distal end of the nail so that holes can be drilled to the nail apertures in the distal end of the nail. An irradiation or X-ray image target device can be used to determine planar alignment by overlap of opaque line elements with a target line element to interact with an image part of a surgical nail in an image as a result of irradiation.

Abstract: This invention relates to phytases, polynucleotides encoding them, uses of the polynucleotides and polypeptides of the invention, as well as the production and isolation of such polynucleotides and polypeptides. In particular, the invention provides polypeptides having phytase activity under high temperature conditions, and phytases that retain activity after exposure to high temperatures. The phytases of the invention can be thermotolerant and/or thermostable at low temperatures, in addition to higher temperatures. The phytases of the invention can be used in foodstuffs to improve the feeding value of phytate rich ingredients. The phytases of the invention can be formulated as foods or feeds or supplements for either to, e.g., aid in the digestion of phytate. The foods or feeds of the invention can be in the form of pellets, liquids, powders and the like. In one aspect, phytases of the invention are stabile against thermal denaturation during pelleting; and this decreases the cost of the phytase product while maintaining  in vivo  efficacy and detection of activity in feed.

Title: Air blast soft fruit harvesting device
Inventor: KOKANOVIC MOMCILO
IPC: A01D46/00
Filed: 2013-08-30
Abstract: The invention relates to the air blast soft fruit harvesting device comprising an air flow director (1), pulsator (2), distancing channel (3), segmented extension (4) and blower fan (5) assembly. The distancing channel (3) is connected with the segmented extension (4) on the top side and with the pulsator (2) on the bottom side, whereas the pulsator (2) is simultaneously connected with the air flow director (1) on the bottom side, and the segmented extension (4) is connected with the blower fan (5). The blower fan (5) constantly sends air to the director (1), through the segmented extension (4), distancing channel (3) and pulsator (2) directing the air towards a fruit shrub, thus shaking ripe fruits. In the course of the rotation of the pulsator (2) rotor (32), the pulsator (2) alternately sends air, in a single cycle, through the channels (6, 7 and 8), and then through the channels (9, 10 and 11) of the director (1), where the air flow leaving the pulsator (2) varies, achieving its power impact. It is possible to regulate the air blast power and speed over the connecting tube (78) by discharging part of the air which the blower fan (5) sends towards the director (1), into the atmosphere. The regulation is performed manually with the lever (81). Thus, regulation of the air blow power impact on a fruit shrub is obtained. When using the device for harvesting soft fruit, two devices are used simultaneously, positioned in such way that there is a row of shrubs between them.

Abstract: Disjoint node groups are generated for a node cluster to guarantee hardware redundancy for each service group to be configured on the node cluster. Each service group includes service units, and each service unit is a unit of redundancy for services provided and protected by the service group. Hardware dependency is identified between virtual machines in the node cluster and hardware elements to host the virtual machines. A first node group set (NG set) is formed using a first criterion to select the virtual machines into different node groups based on the hardware dependency, such that there is no common hardware element between any two node groups in the first NG set. The first NG set is mapped to a first set of service groups. Different node groups of the first NG set are mapped to different service units in each service group of the first set of service groups.

Abstract: An ice making apparatus is provided in which a refrigeration cycle is used to produce ice inside an evaporator (56) that is generally horizontally disposed, with a hollow auger (72) being provided with a helical flight (105) thereon, for scraping ice from the inner wall of the evaporator and pushing the ice toward one end of the auger, by which it is compressed and moved by a paddle (125) toward a flange (118), in which it is delivered to an ice breakup device (113), by which the ice is diverted into a compression zone (130), with water being squeezed from the ice and the ice delivered to a transport tube (27) and then to an ice retainer. Filling the retainer or jamming of ice nuggets inside the transport will effect a shut-down of the apparatus. Various water level controls for a water reservoir (46) are provided, whereby the auger is flooded inside and outside, for enhancing ice formation. Nugget-type ice is provided by the ice making apparatus. The apparatus allows for changing the nugget size/shape without negative ice hardness consequences.
