Title: Propane measurement using a coriolis flowmeter
Inventor: BUTTLER MARC ALLAN
IPC: G01F15/02
Filed: 2003-08-21
Granted: 2010-03-09
Abstract: A method of delivering propane to a customer (202) is disclosed. A transport vehicle (200) transports the propane to the customer (202). The transport vehicle (200) delivers the propane from the transport vehicle (200) to the customer (202). A Coriolis flowmeter (212) measures a mass flow rate of the propane as transport vehicle (200) delivers the propane to the customer (202). The Coriolis flowmeter (212) determines a gross volume of the propane based on the mass flow rate of the propane. The Coriolis flowmeter (212) also determines an adjusted volume of the propane based on the mass flow rate and a constant value. The constant value corresponds to a density of propane at a reference temperature.

Abstract: A harvester for root crops such as beets is provided which preferably provides continuous flow of root crops from a header, along a transfer assembly, through a processing run, and to an elevator assembly. The harvester can be configured to include or accommodate interchangeable header assemblies having different numbers of rows and/or row spacings. The transfer assembly can be of a floating type and helps to provide an even distribution of beets to the grabrollers. The processing run includes full-length cleaning grabrollers disposed parallel to the direction of travel. Modular elevator assemblies can be provided to further enhance harvester versatility. Such an approach includes interchangeable ferns wheel and scrubber chain elevator assemblies. An improved scrubber chain elevator assembly can be used which has a wraparound scrubber chain design. A pivoting tank conveyor for evenly filling a holding tank can be included. Large diameter carrier wheels on a single axle positioned for improved balance, flotation, and maneuverability typically are important basic characteristics of the harvesters.

Abstract: Improved form-less electronic apparatus and methods for manufacturing the same. In one exemplary embodiment, the apparatus comprises a shape-core inductive device (200) having a bonded-wire coil (204) which is formed and maintained within the device (200) without resort to a bobbin or other form(er). The absence of the bobbin simplifies the manufacture of the device, reduces its cost and allows it to be made more compact (or alternatively additional functionality to be disposed therein). One variant utilizes a termination header (206) for mating to a PCB or other assembly, while another totally avoids the use of the header by directly mating to the PCB. Multi-core variants and methods of manufacturing are also disclosed.

Abstract: A packaging method and apparatus wherein each product is packaged by capturing the product in flexible packaging material. The packing apparatus includes a product detector for detecting the presence or absence of a product to be packaged. The detection of the product may cause the advancement of packaging material and the product through a nipping station to form a package. The failure to detect a product may cause the advancement of the packaging material to stop and conserve packaging material until a product is detected. The product detector may be a color sensor trained to detect a color of the first web, a luminescence sensor trained to detect a luminance of the first web, or a light-sensitive sensor trained to detect a difference in light passing through the first web. Also, a luminescence additive may be joined with the lower web to provide a distinct luminance.

Abstract: Design software in accordance with an implementation of the present invention is configured to provide believable three-dimensional representations of user selections in real-time. Design elements that would otherwise be difficult to efficiently render three-dimensionally in real-time are prerendered for realistic visual effects, such as realistic shading, which correspond to various positions of the elements in a design space. Blanks of the visual effects for each position an then stored in a data store for visual effects. At run time, data associated with user design choices, as well as the blanks for any corresponding design elements are fed in one implementation to peripheral. processing hardware, such as a GPU, which sends the processed data to a display device. The user is therefore able to view complex visual data of certain design choices efficiently with added realism.
