  • Publication number: 20050091904
    Abstract: A motorized wildfowl decoy designed to mimic the random, back and forth, swimming actions of live waterfowl utilizing a through the keel, water jet propulsion system, and an anchor system. The propulsion pump, powered by a rechargeable battery, is located on the underside, in a cut out section of the water keel, near the front of the decoy body, with the discharge being routed through the water keel, then directed towards the water surface though a 45 degree bend, at the aft of the water keel, and out through a swim course correction orifice which is a rotatable cap on the end of the discharge tubing with an off-centered discharge hole. The propulsion system, combined with the anchor system, produces a random straight line then turn/change course, straight line then turn/change course action similar to the swimming actions live waterfowl use while feeding.

  • Publication number: 20030063720
    Abstract: A system and method for creating and implementing telecommunications services are disclosed. The system comprises a service development platform that includes a communications module, and application server, and at least one auxiliary module. The communications module enables data to be transmitted to and from the development platform to facilitate the implementation of telecommunications services. The application server can store a telecommunications service creation tool that can be used by an individual to generate code needed to implement the telecommunications service or that can automatically generate code needed to implement the telecommunications service. The application server can also store the code needed to implement the telecommunications service and can transmit data to and receive data from the communications module as necessary for implementing the telecommunications service.

  • Patent number: 6045253
    Abstract: A member within a container is reciprocated to vibrate the container contents. A drive unit is releasably connectable to the reciprocating member so that the drive unit can be used for other purposes, such as for driving the reciprocal members of other containers when not required for the container in question. The drive unit comprises a reciprocal output member with a releasable mechanism for drivably connecting the output member with the reciprocal member of the container and a device for removably mounting the container on the drive unit.
