Title: Alga growing apparatus and alga growing method
Inventor: YAMADA KENICHI
IPC: A01G33/02
Filed: 2019-09-13
Granted: 2022-05-19
Abstract: [Problem] To provide an alga growing apparatus and an alga growing method with which it is possible to improve the efficiency of growth of algae. [Solution] An alga growing apparatus 10 is provided with a gas dissolving unit 20, an alga tank 30, a first LED 40, a second LED 41, a supply unit 50, and a circulation pump unit 60. The gas dissolving unit 20 generates rearing water by dissolving carbon dioxide and oxygen in deep ocean water. The alga tank 30 accommodates the rearing water and laver thalli. The circulation pump unit 60 sucks and sends the rearing water and the laver thalli from the alga tank 30 to the gas dissolving unit 20 and injects the rearing water and the laver thalli into the alga tank 30 via the air dissolving water 20 and a supply pipe 51 of the supply unit 50. The supply unit 50 causes the rearing water and the laver thalli to flow in a direction obliquely crossing the direction of curvature of the inner surface of the alga tank 30, and the rearing water forms a turbulent flow and flows within the alga tank 30.

Title: Shallow undercut concrete anchor
Inventor: PREGARTNER THILO
IPC: F16B13/04
Filed: 2021-05-21
Granted: 2023-09-07
Abstract: A concrete anchor capable of resisting large loads while requiring minimal embedment 
depth. The system includes a concrete structure including a cylindrical opening in the concrete 
surface thereof. The system also uses an anchor which includes a sleeve and a plug. The sleeve 
includes at least two legs extending toward a first end of the sleeve. The plug includes an 
increasing diameter portion disposed toward a first end of the plug. The plug includes a locking 
opening. After installation, legs of the sleeve extend radially outward past the wall and the 
increasing diameter portion prevents inward movement of the legs to lock the sleeve and the plug 
in turn in the concrete cylindrical opening. Furthermore, dynamic loading on the plug via the 
locking opening when the anchor is in use generates a dynamic radially outward force on the legs 
to secure the anchor in the concrete hole.

Abstract: A signal transmission system has a number of wave division multiplex optical carriers linking a number of switching units arranged in a closed ring network. The carriers are amplified to compensate for loss and attenuation, but the ring gain of each carrier must be less than unity to prevent unwanted signal oscillation. An automatic gain control arrangement is operative for each optical carrier which is detected as being present at a switching unit, and the gain control is disabled for each carrier which is detected as being absent.

Abstract: A system (800) includes an e-mail engine which uses a proper protocol to retrieve an e-mail (875) from a first mail store (850) and to store the e-mail (875) in one or more folder structures (138, 140, 142, 144). Upon request, the first mail store (850) may send configuration data indicating the proper protocol to the e-mail engine, which can then properly configure itself. An e-mail synchronization module (885) uses a predetermined criterion to determine whether the e-mail (875) was previously sent and whether to synchronize the e-mail (875) with a second mail store (895). The e-mail synchronization module (885) may also synchronize the e-mail to specified folder structures. The second mail store (895) may be located on a global server (830), which upon proper identification and authentication provides roaming users (805) with access to its contents. A communications module establishes a communications channel through any firewalls (880) with the second mail store. A web engine (890) sends the e-mail via the communications channel to the second mail store (895).
