Abstract: A device and method for visualizing geometrical and mechanical parameters of prostates and diagnosing prostate diseases using a pressure sensor array is disclosed. A probe having an articulated tip for insertion in the rectum applies digital pressure to the prostate similar to that applied by a human finger. A pressure and position/orientation sensor is provided in the tip. Signals from the sensors are used to calculate a virtual pattern of a property such as stress and strain. The virtual and theoretical patterns are compared and differences are used to indicate the presence and location of differing elasticity regions of the tissues being examined and to display an image of the examined prostate.

Title: Frame for rotary milking platform to which can be attached hosing.
Inventor: BATTERSBY BRUCE
IPC: A01K1/12
Filed: 2000-12-20
Abstract: Described is an attachment for a rotary milking platform (1).  The platform has a cluster ring (2) connected to the platform by spacers (3).  The spacers are positioned at the side of each of the bails (4) where the animals (5) are milked.  The placement of the spacers determines the furthest that the hoses of the milking cluster can move in any one direction.  The design enables the hosing from the milking cluster to effectively float in the aperture (7) crated between the ring (2) and the platform.  This ensures that the milking cluster is aligned with the udder of the animal.  The cluster can be moved to the side along with the hosing to allow easy access for both entry and removal of the cow from the milking platform.
