Title: A method for calibration of milk meters in a milking system
Inventor: UMEGARD ANDERS
IPC: A01J5/01
Filed: 2003-09-29
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for calibrating milk meters in a milking system comprising a milking station (10a, 10b; 20) having at least one milk meter (14a,14b; 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) that measures avalue of a milking performance of a milking animal. The method comprises the steps: determining a reference value which reflects the amount of milk received from a number of milking animals during a selected time period in a reference unit (19; 32), retrieving all measured values during the selected time period for each milk meter (14a, 14b; 21a, 21b, 21c, 21d) that by itself contribute to the amount of milk received by the reference unit (19; 32), comparing the reference value with the sum of all retrieved measured values and calculating a correction function for one of the milk meters, and using the calculated correction function to adjust the measured value from the milk meter.

Title: Load-receiving arrangement for wind turbine wings
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: F03D11/00
Filed: 2003-12-17
Abstract: The present invention concerns a rotor blade (10) of a wind power plant, comprising a rotor blade connection for connection to a hub (12) of the rotor of a wind power plant and a blade tip (13) disposed at the opposite end of the rotor blade (10). In order to provide a rotor blade (10) in which flexing can be detected with simple means, at least one electrical conductor (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26) is laid over the length of the rotor blade (10), wherein the electrical conductor (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26) begins at the rotor blade connection, extends in the longitudinal direction of the rotor blade and back to the rotor blade connection, and that there is provided a detector (16) which detects the electrical resistance of the conductor (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 26) and is connected to an evaluation device which evaluates the electrical resistance.   In that respect the invention is based on the realisation that flexing of the rotor blade always leads to extension of the support structure and that such extension, when transferred to an electrical conductor, leads to a change in the electrical resistance of the conductor, from which it is possible to infer the flexing of the rotor blade as the change in resistance is proportional to the extension of the conductor and that is in turn proportional to the flexing of the rotor blade.

Title: Livestock moving system and method
Inventor: MOLLHAGEN JON DAVIS
IPC: A01K29/00
Filed: 2005-09-27
Abstract: A system and method for moving livestock includes a sequence of interconnected semicircular enclosures in which the periphery of each enclosure extends generally to the center of the next enclosure. At the center of each enclosure is a turret unit including a support frame, a turret frame and a panel. The panel extends generally to the edge of the enclosure. The turret frame and panel are capable of two modes of movement: a sweeping mode and a shuttle mode. In the sweeping mode, the turret frame rotates the extended panel as the panel sweeps around the semicircular enclosure. In the shuttle mode the panel is translated across the enclosure from one side of the turret frame to the other side of the turret frame. Panels can thus be alternately swept around their respective enclosures and shuttled across their respective enclosures to present translating enclosed areas for livestock as the livestock progress through a series of interconnected semicircular enclosures.
