  • Patent number: 11238393
    Abstract: A system for determining performance data of plants growing in a field. The system comprises a mass flow meter for generating mass data related to the mass of plant product passed through the mass flow meter, and that is communicatively connected to a computer based data processing system; a temperature sensor for determining the temperature of the air adjacent the mass flow meter or within the mass flow meter, and that communicatively connected to the computer based data processing system, and a moisture sensor for determining the moisture of air adjacent the mass flow meter or within the mass flow meter, and that is communicatively connected to the computer based data processing system. The computer based data processing system is structured and operable to utilize the mass data, the air temperature and the air moisture to determine a yield of the plants from which the plant product was harvested.

  • Patent number: 9880116
    Abstract: The current disclosure describes an automated high-throughput seed sorting system for separating seed via oil and/or moisture content using novel nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) systems and methods. The disclosed systems and methods for measuring the oil and/or moisture content of a single seed in a low-field time domain NMR instrument are superior in sample throughput and signal-to-noise ratio to conventional NMR systems and methods (free induction decay or spin echo) for single seed oil/moisture measurement.

  • Patent number: 9658176
    Abstract: The current disclosure describes an automated high-throughput small object sorting system for separating small object via oil and/or moisture content using novel nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) systems and methods. The disclosed systems and methods for measuring the oil and/or moisture content of a single small object in a low-field time domain NMR instrument are superior in sample throughput and signal-to-noise ratio to conventional NMR systems and methods (free induction decay or spin echo) for single small object oil/moisture measurement.

  • Publication number: 20070095872
    Abstract: According to the invention the pet caddy has a substantially flat bottom, a soft side wall extending from the bottom to an open top encircled with a rim structure to maintain an opening at the toe, with two integral brackets adjacent to the top arranged to clamp around the bicycle handlebars to support the caddy with a removable strut secured to the bottom and extending to neck of the handle bars to support the caddy in a vertical position, plus a strap located on the inside surface of the wall for connecting a short leash to restrain a pet while in the caddy. Handles are connected to the wall so that the caddy can be carried like a satchel without removing a pet. Removable padding inserted on the bottom enclosure of the housing creates a more comfortable environment for the pet and can be removed and replaced if soiled. The base of wall also has a plurality of ventilation ports for air circulation.

  • Publication number: 20050028464
    Abstract: The coping assembly includes a first elongated coping section, a second elongated coping section, and a splice plate. The first coping section includes an end and is mounted on the top of the wall to cover a first portion of a wall. The second coping section includes an end and is mounted on the top of the wall to cover a second portion of the wall. The second coping section is positioned in an end to end relationship with the first coping section and spaced from the first coping section. The splice plate is positioned beneath a portion of the first and second coping sections and includes a portion that extends between the first and second coping sections. The portion of the splice plate includes a formed groove that has the appearance of a mortar reveal.
