Filed: 2002-06-18
Granted: 2011-12-20
Abstract: A data transfer apparatus realizing an appropriate system operation by fetching information on a secondary recording medium as the content transfer destination. When a medium employing its original management method such as a mini disc, for example, is used as a secondary recording medium as a check out destination, a data transfer apparatus side (primary recording medium side) requests the data recording apparatus (secondary recording medium side) to send information on the secondary recording medium and acquires necessary information. The information on the secondary recording medium includes information on whether a secondary recording medium is mounted on the data recording apparatus, name information on the secondary recording medium, name information on content data recorded on the secondary recording medium, capacity information on the secondary recording medium, information on the number of content data sets recorded on the secondary recording medium, and attribute information on the content data recorded on the secondary recording medium.

Abstract: An agricultural primary tillage implement is disclosed with a row cleaner assembly attached in front of the shank. That row cleaner is adjustable fore-and-aft for optimum clearance between the shank and a leading soil preparation apparatus to maximize clearance for residue movement. The row cleaner is also adjustable for depth. The row cleaner assembly reduces the amount of residue in line with the shank path (row) and creates smaller clod sizes of soil in line with the shank swath, resulting in a better seedbed and faster warm up in the spring, enabling the planter to run in cleaner soil, preventing planter plugging and uneven seed planting depth as well as resulting in better seed-to soil-contact.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-return valve that can be configured for use anywhere along a molding material flow path in a molding system. The non- return valve of the present invention includes an improved means to restrict the backflow of melt therethrough during injection. In particular, a spigot-seal is configurable, during injection, between overlapping, closely-spaced, and mutually parallel complementary male and female spigot portions that are configured between complementary valve members. The spigot-seal advantageously maintains an effective backflow restriction even in the eventuality of transient movement between the spigot portions during injection. Preferably, the non-return valve of the present invention is also configured to include a means for mutually aligning and/or guiding the complementary valve components that ensures a proper alignment between the complementary spigot portions, and may also serve to improve the function and longevity of a face- seal, when present. The non-return valve of the present invention provides particularly advantageous utility when configured for use in a barrel assembly of an injection unit for the injection molding of a metal alloy.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système générateur de vagues comprenant un générateur de vagues qui est mobile sur la surface d'un plan d'eau, et de préférence en son milieu. En l'occurrence, ce générateur de vagues est capable de produire en direction de la côte des vagues primaires ainsi que des vagues secondaires. Les vagues primaires sont prévues pour permettre la pratique du surf dans des eaux relativement profondes. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, le plan d'eau est délimité par deux rives aux courbes multiples se faisant face, et sur lesquelles viennent se briser les vagues secondaires. Il en résulte qu'en modifiant la pente et les courbes de la rive, et en réalisant des péninsules aux courbes multiples et des anses, on peut créer des effets et des formations de vagues aux multiples aspects.
