Abstract: The present invention relates to automatic and high throughput smart, robotic, autonomous or driver operated, self-propelled field crops harvester (SPFCH) device of row crops, characterized by the need of selecting harvesting ripen crop, during relative long period of time. Harvesting is done by one or more modular robotic harvesting arms hanged on modular booms. When harvesting orchards fruits the SPFCH comprise at least one hybrid robotic arms equipped with a grabbing hand aimed to grab one or more fruit of a an adjacent fruits and also cut its connecting stem, and arm transporting mechanism that gently collects the fruits and transport them to the SPFCH main accumulation area. When harvesting cotton, the SPFCH of the invention may further comprise vacuum sucking hoses and at least one ginning unit that gin the seed-cotton during harvesting and accumulate the seeds in a self-container, and the lint by bales processed, on board by self-press.

Abstract: Protective apparatus including a plurality of spaced, slender tensile elements installed in a room inwards of a glass panel of a curtain wall of the room, wherein when the glass panel is destroyed by an explosive blast, the tensile elements generally prevent fragments from the glass panel from flying inwards past the tensile elements.

Abstract: A system for detection of stickiness, neps, seed coat fragments (S.C.F.) and other fiber qualities comprising (i) an autocleaning microcarding device; (ii) a quality video camera for detection of the number and size of neps, S.C.F. and foreign materials per square unit space and of other qualities of the web; (iii) sticky rollers between which the web is pressed; (iv) a vacuum system pulling said cotton web after pressing; (v) at least one computerized stickiness detector; (vi) means for cleaning the rollers from the sticky lint; (ii) and a computer for processing the obtained data.
