  • Patent number: 11230444
    Abstract: A material handling system has an input conduit section 12 having an input cross-sectional shape, an output conduit section 14 having an output cross-sectional shape that is different than the input cross-sectional shape, and a transition adaptor 18 connecting the input conduit section 12 and the output conduit section providing a transition between the input and output cross-sectional shapes. The transition adaptor includes a crown piece 20 that has an outer end having an elliptical sectional shape and an inner end. The transition adaptor includes a box piece 30 that has an inner end and an outer end 32 having a rectangular sectional shape, wherein the inner end of the crown piece mates with the inner end of the box piece. The box piece is formed by a first box half and a second box half 42, wherein each box half 40 is formed from a flat piece of metal and is formed by bending the box half 40 about bend lines.

  • Patent number: 11224198
    Abstract: An animal house climate control system uses a method for operating a baffle of an air inlet of an animal house with a motor using timed inlet control. The method includes performing a calibration sequence to calculate opening velocity and opening inertia values and closing velocity and closing inertia values. The method also includes moving the baffle from an initial position to a final position by calculating a calculated power on time for the motor using the opening inertia or closing inertia values. The method can also include calculating a real position error value by comparing the calculated on time for the motor and a measured on time for the motor and using the real position error value to calculate adjusted opening and closing velocity values.

  • Patent number: 11166439
    Abstract: A poultry nesting system has a nest house with an adjacent platform raised above the surface of the surrounding substrate. The platform has an upper surface and at least a portion of a perimeter of the platform comprises a wire mesh covering a space between the substrate and the upper surface. The wire mesh is formed by a plurality of strands including an upper strand and a lower strand. At least a portion of the upper surface of the platform is supported by a plurality of platform floor supports positioned on a perimeter of the platform. Each of the plurality of platform floor supports includes a bracing member, an upper cap on an upper end of the bracing member and a lower cap on a lower end of the bracing member. The upper cap has an attachment mechanism on an upper portion thereof configured to interact with the upper surface to lock the platform floor support to the upper surface of the platform such that the platform floor support supports the upper surface in its raised position above the substrate.

  • Publication number: 20210173647
    Abstract: A device and method for facilitating orthogonal data transposition during data transfers to/from a processing array and a storage memory since the data words processed by the processing array (using computational memory cells) are stored orthogonally to how the data words are stored in storage memory. Thus, when data words are transferred between storage memory and the processing array, a mechanism orthogonally transposes the data words.

  • Patent number: 10997275
    Abstract: A method for an associative memory array includes storing each column of a matrix in an associated column of the associative memory array, where each bit in row j of the matrix is stored in row R-matrix-row-j of the array, storing a vector in each associated column, where a bit j from the vector is stored in an R-vector-bit-j row of the array. The method includes simultaneously activating a vector-matrix pair of rows R-vector-bit-j and R-matrix-row-j to concurrently receive a result of a Boolean function on all associated columns, using the results to calculate a product between the vector-matrix pair of rows, and writing the product to an R-product-j row in the array.
