  • Patent number: 10130107
    Abstract: A processing system for processing slaughtered and defeathered poultry bodies, comprising a plurality of processing devices which, for the processing-transport of the poultry bodies separately from a main conveyor device, is designed with a processing-holding means which is movable on a circular path. The processing system has transfer stations arranged in succession along a main conveyor line, in which the poultry bodies are transported in a suspended manner by carrier devices. Each processing device is assigned a transfer station which is formed by a transfer pair having two rotary transfer devices. The first rotary transfer device removes the poultry bodies from the carrier devices and transfers them to the processing-holding means of the processing device. The second rotary transfer device removes the processed poultry bodies from the processing-holding means of the processing device and transfers them to the carrier devices.

  • Publication number: 20040153556
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the ability to set up connections on demand between subscribers and service providers and allows network capacity to be best shared among users. Whenever a service terminal (ST) requests a service (S) from a service provider (SP), an authentication server (AUTH) checks whether the service terminal can access the requested service. If so, a network controller (CTRL) set up a connection (C) to deliver the requested service with the required quality of service, said connection being established between the network termination (NT), to which the service terminal is coupled, and the access server (AS), to which the service provider is coupled. The authentication server supplies transport requirements of the requested service for establishing the connection.

  • Publication number: 20030114175
    Abstract: A method of enhancing the functionality and usability of a computing device includes the step of defining a plurality of functional profiles, each functional profile having a layout appearance and one or more indicators associated with applications. The functional profiles are then stored, and one of the functional profiles is activated using a functional profile selector or triggered by external communications to a personal digital assistant, e.g. SMS. Thereafter, an application is activated by selecting one of the indicators from those displayed in the layout appearance for the activated functional profile.

  • Patent number: 6033296
    Abstract: A cut is made in the neck of slaughtered poultry to permit access to a tool for removing the crop. The cut is made by an apparatus which includes a carousel for moving the poultry, arch-shaped tracks which have sections which are horizontal, upward-sloping and downward-sloping, and running wheels which move in the tracks to effect vertical movement of handling units and bird positioning units. Each handling unit includes a tilting arm which has a blade fitted at its upper end, a centering fork with two centering elements which contact opposite sides of the neck of a bird, and a running wheel at its lower end where the running wheel rides in a track. During movement of the running wheel on its track, the tilting arm is first tilted from its sloping non-operative position to a less sloping vertical position to center the neck of a bird and to bring the blade against the neckskin, and the arm then makes a downward movement to form a cut in the neck.
