Abstract: A floating harvesting header apparatus comprises a float pan pivotally attached at a front end thereof to the header at a front attachment location in proximity to the crop intake. The float pan extends rearward under the header and a pan actuator is attached to the float pan to selectively move the float pan up and down and maintain the float pan in a selected vertical position relative to the header such that the header can slide along the ground on the float pan. The header can float up and down independently with only a portion of the header's weight carried on the float pan. The float pan curves down from the front and then curves upward towards the rear such that when the rear end of the float pan is raised the crop intake moves lower and the contact area between the float pan and the ground moves toward the crop intake.

Abstract: In an access network which supports macro mobility management, an access node (SGSN) checks (3) during an attach procedure of a mobile station (MS) whether the mobile has macro mobility capability, i.e. whether there is a potential need for macro mobility services. Macro mobility entity (FA2) may be any entity which provides a point of attachment on the macro mobility level, such as a mobility agent in Mobile IP type mobility management. If there is no mobility capability, a normal attach procedure is performed. However, if there is macro mobility capability, the access node (SGSN) selects a suitable mobility entity (FA2) to the mobile station (MS), sends the identity of the selected mobility entity to the mobile station and requests (8) the mobile station to initiate an activation of a packet protocol (PDP) context in the system.

Title: Vehicle suspension system
Inventor: TRIP IAN E
IPC: B60G9/02
Filed: 2002-09-10
Granted: 2005-07-12
Abstract: A suspension system connects a wheel axle to a vehicle frame and includes a trailing arm connected at one end to the wheel axle. A pair of extension members are connected to the other end of the trailing arm and extend laterally in opposite directions along a pivot axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the arm. A pair of supports extend along the pivot axis and are connected to the frame and rotatably connected to the extension member to permit pivotal movement of the trailing aim with respect to the frame about the pivot axis. The supports and extension members are dimensioned to provide a gap between the supports and extension members. A pair of resiliently deformable bearing members are interposed between the extension members and the supports in the gap. The gap and the bearing members are of sufficient width to permit limited rotational movement of the axle with respect to the frame about a vertical axis.

Abstract: The hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid is made up of a single species of protein called the core antigen (HBcAg) which self-assembles into particles. The particles are highly immunogenic and are able to present heterologous epitopes to the immune system when the epitopes are inserted into a surface-exposed region of the particles called the "el loop". The structural building blocks of the particles are tightly associated dimers of HBcAg in which the adjacent el loops are closely juxtaposed. It is proposed that sequences inserted into the el loop are conformationally restrained in the assembled particles when presented in monomeric core protein. The invention seeks to solve this problem by covalently linking core proteins as tandem copies, e.g., as dimers, so that insertions can be made independently in each copy. This is particularly useful for insertion of large sequences into the el loop because it allows such sequences to be inserted into just one copy of the core protein per tandem repeat, thereby reducing potential conformational clashes in assembly.  Alternatively, a different sequence may be inserted into each el loop of a tandem repeat, thus increasing the flexibility of HBcAg particles as an epitope delivery system.

Abstract: An extracting transistor (10) - an FET - includes a conducting channel extending via a p-type InSb quantum well (22) between p-type InA1Sb layers (20, 24) of wider band-gap. One of the InA1Sb layers (24) incorporates an ultra-thin n-type .delta.-doping layer (28) of Si, which provides a dominant source of charge carriers for the quantum well (22). It bears n+ source and drain electrodes (30a, 30b) and an insulated gate (30c). The other InA1Sb layer (20) adjoins a barrier layer (19) of still wider band-gap upon a substrate layer (14) and substrate (16) with electrode (18). Biasing one or both of the source and drain electrodes (30a, 30b) positive relative to the substrate electrode (18) produces minority carrier extraction in the quantum well (22) reducing its intrinsic contribution to conductivity, taking it into an extrinsic saturated regime and reducing leakage current.

Abstract: The toothed belt is produced in a moulding cavity, which is defined by a rotating moulding wheel and an endless moulding belt, which is also rotating. For this purpose, the moulding wheel has a channel defined by lateral cheeks, in the base of which are provided recesses, which correspond to the teeth of the toothed belt. The moulding belt surrounds the moulding wheel over a proportion of its periphery and engages the lateral cheeks at that point. The polyurethane, of which the toothed belt is to consist, is injected into the inlet of the moulding cavity. Upstream of the inlet, "lost cores" are introduced into some of the recesses in the moulding wheel corresponding to the teeth in such a manner that they are embedded all around in the polyurethane. After finishing the toothed belt the "lost cores" can be removed. Passages remain which can be used, for instance, for mounting fastening elements.

Abstract: A process for generating with unification based grammars such as Lexical Functional Grammars which uses construction and analysis of generation guides to determine internal facts and eliminate incomplete edges prior to constructing a generation chart. The generation guide can then be used in the construction of the generation chart to efficiently generate with unification-based grammars such as Lexical Functional Grammars. The generation guide is an instance of a grammar that has been specialized to the input and only contains those parts of the grammar that are relevant to the input. When the generation guide is analyzed to determine internal facts a smaller generation chart is produced.

Abstract: Methods for producing polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) from fatty acid biosynthetic pathways using a 3-hydroxy acyl ACP thioesterase, a PHA synthase, and an acyl CoA synthetase, have been developed. Methodology for enabling PHA  production from fatty acid biosynthetic pathways in non-native bacterial PHA  producers and plants using an enzyme having the catalytic activity of 3-hydroxy acyl ACP thioesterase, an acyl CoA synthetase with substrate specificity for medium chain length 3-hydroxy fatty acids, and a medium chain length PHA synthase, has been developed. Acyl CoA synthetase activity can be supplied either by the endogenous acyl CoA synthetase of the host organism, when sufficiently expressed, or the host organism's activity can be supplemented by the expression of a recombinant acyl CoA synthetase gene. New strategies are described for plant based PHA production in the chloroplasts, cytosol, and peroxisomes of biomass crops as well as the plastids, cytosol, and peroxisomes of oil seed crops.
