  • Patent number: 8997446
    Abstract: A decelerator apparatus for mounting at the end of a pneumatic or gravity-fed fruit harvesting or delivery tube. The decelerator comprises a housing with a moving decelerator body aligned with a fruit-receiving inlet connected to the delivery tube. The decelerator body, for example a padded rotating wheel, moves at a speed slower than the speed at which the fruit is delivered into the housing, includes multiple depressions or indentations for receiving and separating fruit, and further defines a compressive deceleration path that moves the fruit in a compressive but protective fit toward a housing exit, releasing the fruit after the fruit has been decelerated to the speed of the moving body.

  • Patent number: 7624078
    Abstract: A method and process that allows arbitrary input form semantics to be specified and interpreted at run-time. The method utilizes general purpose set theory expressions to represent input semantics based on the form creator's intent and the relationship between the input fields. Because the method utilizes general purpose logic it can be practiced with an array of computer programs and algorithms and does not require the use of a relational database.
