Patent number: 10104901Abstract: Aspects for utilizing a seawater fluid to optimize egg-production characteristics are disclosed. In one aspect, a method is provided, which includes identifying a desired optimization, determining a corresponding seawater to non-seawater ratio, and generating a seawater fluid according to the ratio. An egg-cultivation method is also provided, which includes ascertaining a desired optimization, selecting a corresponding seawater to non-seawater ratio, and providing a seawater fluid comprising the ratio to a hen. In another egg-cultivation method, hens are provided with a mixed feed comprising a feed to seawater-mineralized produce ratio selected according to a desired optimization. A method to grow produce is also provided, which includes mineralizing soil with a seawater fluid comprising a seawater to non-seawater ratio corresponding to a preferred optimization.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2013Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Luberski, Inc.Inventors: Timothy E. Luberski, Neal Rye, Edward E. Anderson

Patent number: 6961939Abstract: Techniques for transmission of message fragments between Object Request Brokers operating in distributed object oriented environments. The techniques provide an elegant mechanism for fragmentation of messages into sub-messages. In one embodiment, a fragment-offset is provided as a means for determining the location of data bytes in sub-messages with respect to the original message that has been fragmented. During the construction and transmission of sub-messages, the fragment-offset can be updated to indicate the current offset with respect to the original message. Accordingly, in contrast to conventional techniques, a significant amount of computations or bookkeeping to track of several other variables (e.g., number of fragments constructed, total number of bytes constructed, etc.) are not required. As will appreciated, the headers of the sub-messages need not be of the same size. Similarly, the data portions of the sub-messages can vary in size.Type: GrantFiled: February 5, 2001Date of Patent: November 1, 2005Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Edward E. Anderson, Masood S. Mortazavi

Patent number: 6843959Abstract: A mixer (10) for mixing molten metal in a kettle is disclosed. The mixer (10) broadly includes a housing (12), a drive train assembly (14) supported on the housing (12), and an impeller assembly (16) rotatably coupled to the drive train assembly (14). The drive train assembly (14) broadly includes a power source (18), a rotatable shaft (20), and a transmission (22) drivingly connecting the power source (18) and the shaft (20). The housing (12) is a self-contained unit that supports the mixer (10) and includes an upper housing section (24) that is shiftable relative to a lower housing section (26) between a raised position and a lowered positioned. The transmission (22) includes an endless belt (118) than entrains a fan (122) fixed to the shaft (20). The fan (122) forces a stream of air over bearings (106,108) that support the shaft (20) and over the power source (18) when the shaft (20) is rotated.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2002Date of Patent: January 18, 2005Assignee: Quality Machine Works, Inc.Inventor: Edward E.

Patent number: 6553597Abstract: A cleaner (10) for cleaning dross off of the surface of ingot-filled-molds (F) moving along a conveyor (C) is disclosed. The cleaner (10) includes a boom (14) pivotally mounted to a base (12), an arm (16) housed at least partially within the boom (14) and pivotally mounted thereto, a cutting blade (18) slidably mounted on the arm (16) and a rotatable brush (20) pivotally mounted to a brush arm (132). The cutting blade (18) is driven by a piston and cylinder assembly (112) pivotally coupled between the blade (18) and the arm (16). The arm (16) is pivoted by a piston and cylinder unit (120) coupled between the arm (16) and the boom (14). The brush (20) is pivoted by a piston and cylinder combination (168) coupled between the brush (20) and the brush arm (132).Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2001Date of Patent: April 29, 2003Inventor: Edward E. Anderson
