  • Patent number: 11960840
    Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each query word of a query to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens represents different meanings of a word of the query. The method further includes obtaining a first identigen selection for a first query word from the first set of identigens. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules and based on the first identigen selection, the sets of identigens to produce a query entigen group. The method further includes accessing a knowledge database utilizing the query entigen group to produce a response entigen group. The method further includes generating a response to the query using the response entigen group, where the response includes at least one response word.

  • Patent number: 11954608
    Abstract: A method performed by a computing device includes generating a comparative query entigen group set based on a comparative query in accordance with identigen rules, where the comparative query entigen group set represents a most likely interpretation of the comparative query. The method further includes obtaining a first response entigen group from a knowledge database based on a first comparative query entigen group of the comparative query entigen group set, where the first response entigen group substantially includes the first comparative query entigen group. The method further includes obtaining a second response entigen group from the knowledge database based on a second comparative query entigen group of the comparative query entigen group set, where the second response entigen group substantially includes the second comparative query entigen group. The method further includes generating a comparative response based on the first response entigen group and the second response entigen group.

  • Publication number: 20240070395
    Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each phrase word of a phrase to produce sets of identigens. A set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a phrase word of the phrase. The method further includes obtaining sensor information for one or more phrase words of the phrase. The method further includes selecting an identigen of a first set of identigens based on the sensor information to produce a first identigen selection for the first set of identigens having a selected meaning of one or more different meanings of the first phrase word. The method further includes interpreting remaining sets of identigens of the sets of identigens to produce an entigen group so that the entigen group represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the phrase.

  • Patent number: 4349308
    Abstract: A tractor mounted front end loader with a swingable boom assembly carrying a bucket, there being an ejector assembly for the bucket. The boom arms are shortened to place the center of gravity of the bucket proximal to the front tires of the loader, to place the cutting edge of the bucket closer to the center line of the front axle of the tractor; to place the boom to bucket pivot proximal to the surface upon which the loader is working and the cutting edge of the bucket in a horizontal plane slightly below that of the boom to bucket pivot, as compared with a loader without a bucket ejector assembly, to the end that bucket capacity is increased, reach and dump height are increased, cycle time is reduced and greater breakout force can be developed inasmuch as the bucket can be dumped, by use of the ejector assembly, while in a horizontal position. The ejector assembly includes upper and lower swingable panels within the bucket, hinged together with means for sealing the hinge.

  • Patent number: 4284086
    Abstract: A threshing unit is arranged in a concentrically spaced relation within a perforated rotatable grain separating cylinder. An elongated axially fluted impeller located below the threshing unit and within the separating cylinder accelerates the speed of travel of the threshed material to substantially the peripheral speed of the separating cylinder to reduce grain cracking and fracturing. The grain is centrifugally separated through the separating cylinder for removal by a clean grain auger located therebelow and the chaff is discharged by air flowing axially between the threshing unit and the separating cylinder. Tailings from the threshing unit are moved rearwardly along the inner peripheral surface of the separating cylinder for pickup and return to the threshing unit.

  • Patent number: 4274426
    Abstract: The thresher apparatus includes a rotatable tapered threshing cylinder assembled within and in a concentrically spaced coaxially aligned operative relation with a rotatable tapered grain separating cylinder, with the space between the cylinders defining a threshing zone that has an inlet for receiving the grain to be threshed and an outlet for discharging the residual material. The separating cylinder has concave grates and separating grates in the peripheral surface thereof to provide for a grain threshing action and for a separation, by centrifugal force, of the threshed grain from the residual material over the entire peripheral surfaces of the cylinders. The spacing between the cylinders to accommodate different grains under varying field conditions may be varied by relative axial movement between the cylinders and by a variation in the relative rotational speeds of the cylinders.
