Title: Marking queen bee with magnetic material.
Inventor: CONNELL JAMES BRUCE
IPC: A01K57/00
Filed: 2009-10-21
Abstract: A spot containing metal is placed on the thorax of a queen bee.

Abstract: 1,108,802. Electric digital calculators. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. 16 March, 1965 [6 April, 1964], No. 10973/65. Heading G4A. In an electronic data processor, a machine condition determining a conditional branch is represented by a comination of the states of two or more bi-stable circuits. Instructions are normally selected by a counter but in the case of a branch, the address of the next instruction is given in the branch instruction, either as a single field or as three fields (base, index and displacement) to be added together. The branch instruction contains four bits which are compared with four (comprising only one 1) obtained from decoding two bits in a programme status word partially controlling operations, to determine if the condition is satisfied. An unconditional branch may be obtained by having the four bits in the branch instruction word all 1's. The condition relates to the result of the instruction preceding the branch instruction and the significance of a particular pattern of four bits depends on the nature of the preceding instruction. The Specification repeats some subject-matter of Specification 1,108,801 which is referred to.

Abstract: 551,128. Rolling. LOEWY ENGINEERING CO., Ltd., and MOGILJANSKIJ, A. Aug. 29, 1941, No. 11033. [Class 83 (iv)] The reels in strip rolling mills have a mechanical connection between the reels and the mill motor to provide for regenerative braking. The reels 13 one on each side of the mill rolls are driven from the mill driving gear by belts, chains &c. 14, which transmit to shafts 17 geared at 21 to a sleeve loose on the reel shaft 18 and carrying gears driving gears 25, 26 in one with clutch parts 27, 28 loose on a countershaft 19. A clutch part 29 keyed to the shaft is movable by a hand lever 30 or by electric, hydraulic &c. means into engagement with one or other of the clutch parts 27, 28 for unwinding and winding respectively. The shaft 19 is geared to the reel shaft at 31. As set for winding the clutch 28 drives slightly faster than the delivery rate of the mill so that slight slip occurs which increases as the reel builds up. For unwinding the clutch 27 drives at a speed just below the feed rate of the mill the slip increasing as the reel empties. During unwinding energy is returned from the reel to the mill through the gearing 31, 25. When feed rollers are employed between the reels and the mill these rollers may be driven in the same manner. In a modification planetary gearing is employed the casing carrying the planetary gears being fitted with a slipping brake.
