Publication number: 20070079393Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided related to improved plants that are tolerant to more than one herbicide. Particularly, the invention provides plants that are tolerant of glyphosate and are tolerant to at least one ALS inhibitor, and methods of use thereof. The glyphosate/ALS inhibitor-tolerant plants comprise a polynucleotide that encodes a polypeptide that confers tolerance to glyphosate and a polynucleotide that encodes an ALS inhibitor-tolerant polypeptide. In specific embodiments, a plant of the invention expresses a GAT polypeptide and an HRA polypeptide. Methods to control weeds, improve plant yield, and increase transformation efficiencies are provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2006Publication date: April 5, 2007Applicants: Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc., E.I. du Pont de Nemours and CompanyInventors: Billy McCutchen, Timothy Chicoine, Jerry Green, Christine Hazel, Jeffrey Hegstad, James Hutchison, Donglong Liu, Albert Lu, Kenneth Peeples, David Saunders, Mark Vogt, James Wong

Publication number: 20060219139Abstract: A mobile waste gasification system comprised of a container, at least one gasification chamber, and a produced fuel gas combustion chamber, and may include a control room. Waste material is loaded into a suspended mesh liner that is offset away from the walls of the gasification chamber, thereby increasing the surface area of waste materials that are exposed to gasification conditions, and thus decreasing gasification temperature, time, and cooling period between subsequent gasification procedures. Process gas and supplemental flaring gases are preferably comprised of an oxygen or hydrogen rich gas. Produced fuel gases are withdrawn from the gasification chamber and into the produced fuel gas combustion chamber. The produced fuel gas combustion chamber may be comprised of a maze ignition chamber for the flaring of said fuel gases. Alternatively, the fuel chamber may be comprised of a gas accumulation tank that stores the produced fuel gas.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2006Publication date: October 5, 2006Inventors: G. Pope, Jerry Green

Publication number: 20060150876Abstract: Lateral pins (20) are used to provide a tufting machine modular gauge assembly that allows damaged or broken gauge elements (10) to be replaced individually. The modular gauge assembly consists of a gauge bar (25) with a plurality of modular blocks (15) removably attached to the bar. The modular blocks are six sided with a detent (110) and fastener mechanism (65) for attaching the block to the gauge bar. The gauge elements may be attached to the block by dedicated screw-pins (145) or by a lateral pin (20) that pastes through all the gauge elements within a block. The lateral pin may either pierce the gauge elements (at 70) or abut the gauge elements. Abutting pins may be malleable and segmented and secured in position by set screws.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2003Publication date: July 13, 2006Inventors: Jerry Green, Gary Ingram, George Caylor

Patent number: 5645001Abstract: A looper apparatus for a multiple needle tufting machine including a looper support member having a transverse hook bar for supporting a plurality of looper hooks for a cooperation with the reciprocable needles in the tufting machine and an elongated guide member reciprocably supported in linear bearings to restrict the motion of the looper hooks in a straight linear direction substantially parallel to the feeding direction to the base fabric, and a drive mechanism pivotally connected to hook support member for reciprocably driving the support member in a linear path. A stub shaft with thrust bearing is mounted at one end of the tufting machine and connected by a curved rocker arm to an end of the hook bar to offset knife pressure placed against the hooks and communicated to the hook bar.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 1996Date of Patent: July 8, 1997Assignee: Tuftco Corp.Inventors: Jerry Green, Michael E.
