Title: Zero tension system conveyor
Inventor: MUELLER LARRY J
IPC: B65G21/18
Filed: 2012-11-07
Abstract: Zero tension system conveyor. A conveyor belt is driven by at least a portion of the conveyor belt being in continuous contact with a block chain within at least a portion of an overall conveyor belt system. Such a conveyor belt system may be implemented in a spiral configuration such that a relatively small portion of the overall width of the conveyor belt is in contact with the block chain above and/or below the conveyor belt. The static force/weight of the conveyor belt in conjunction with the continuous contact between at least a portion of the conveyor belt and the block chain effectuates the driving of the conveyor belt through the overall conveyor belt system. The block chain is composed of a number of links, at least some of which include a respective hook/protrusion on one side thereof, for being directly engaged by drum bars implemented within a drum assembly.
Patent CA-2858693-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WATANABE MAYUKO
IPC: H04N19/86
Filed: 2012-12-12
Abstract: The purpose is to reduce the amount of coding operations and the amount of decoding operations to less than those in conventional intra split image coding, while minimizing reduction in coding efficiency. A split image generating section splits an input image to be coded, into blocks of identical size, collects pixels at identical relative positions within each of the blocks, and generates split images of respectively identical size. A portion of the split images undergo intra split image coding by an intra split image coding process section. An inter split image coding process section performs inter split image coding, using another already coded split image as a reference image. In the event there are a plurality of candidate reference images, a correlation direction calculating section derives, from among a combination of already coded split images and reference images thereof, that having the highest correction to the pixels in the original image, and a reference image selection section selects the already coded split image present in the direction of highest correlation to the split image to be coded, as the reference image to be used by the inter split image coding process section.

Title: A method to screen plants for genetic elements inducing parthenogenesis in plants
Inventor: CIGAN ANDREW MARK
IPC: C12N15/82
Filed: 2012-04-12
Abstract: Compositions and methods for the production of a plant population that lacks sexually derived embryos are provided. Compositions include suppression cassettes encoding polynucleotides and promoters that result in parthenogenesis. Further provided are parthenogenesis genetic elements used to prevent sexual reproduction in a self-reproducing plant. Methods include utilizing a maternal embryo defective recessive mutation which is then maintained as a sterile inbred maintenance system, allowing the generation of a population that is homozygous for the recessive mutant allele, but transgenically complemented. Methods also include utilizing a toxin gene expressed via an egg-cell specific promoter, creating a dominant, embryo-less phenotype, non-transmittable through the female gamete. Resultant hemizygous plants would then be transformed with an egg-cell promoter driving the antidote, a pollen ablation PTU and a seed color marker for identification of transgenic seed. The generation of a plants 50% female fertile, having seed which when grown in the next generation will yield plants with 50% viable transgenic seed, and 50% non-viable embryo-less seed.

Title: Location agent geofence
Inventor: HUGIE RICK
IPC: G08B21/18
Filed: 2013-03-04
Abstract: A least squares geofence method that introduces inventive geofence steps and modifies existing geofence steps to minimize trigger misfires caused by data variability and location blunders and to minimize delayed/missed entry triggers generated under urban and/or indoor conditions. The least squares geofence method periodically retrieves sample locations for a target wireless device to determine that device's geographic location and to evaluate a corresponding side condition. Sample locations retrieved with accuracies greater than 1km are filtered. If a potential change in side condition is detected for a given device, the least squares geofence method retrieves five fast location fixes for that device and evaluates a weighted least squares (LS) location estimate based on sample locations retrieved. A LS location estimate is then filtered according to an anticipated trigger event and the least squares geofence method evaluates a final geofence side condition based on the LS location estimate previously computed.
