Abstract: Embodiments are directed to systems and techniques to provide smart access control devices with legacy access control systems.

Abstract: A harvester monitoring system configured to determine one or more parameters associated with harvested items, the system comprising: a camera module having a field of view and configured to generate image data associated with the harvested items; a mounting bracket configured to secure the camera module to a harvester such that a conveyor of the harvester is within the field of view of the camera module; a location sub-system configured to determine and output location data representative of a geographical location of the harvester monitoring system; and a processing unit configured to receive the image data and the location data, to determine one or more parameters associated with the harvested items, and to record the one or more parameters in association with the location data on a computer readable medium.

Abstract: A hydraulic fracturing valve control system includes an electric powered, multi-plunger hydraulic fracturing pump. The system also includes a manifold coupled to the hydraulic fracturing pump. The system further includes a valve associated with the manifold, the valve being operable to move between an open position, a closed position, and a plurality of intermediate positions. The system includes a valve actuator, coupled to the valve, the valve actuator being an electric actuator that is remotely controllable in response to one or more operational aspects of the hydraulic fracturing pump. The system also includes a control interface, the control interface forming at least a portion of a control system, the control interface being accessible from a location remote from the hydraulic fracturing pump and outside of a zone of pressure formed by the hydraulic fracturing pump during operation.

Abstract: A system of floor mounts and wall brackets for the attachment of a cabinet of any configuration (upper, lower or tall) to a building's wall and/or floor in a secure enough manner to resist the lateral and vertical forces of an earthquake, therein seismically qualifying the components of this cabinet mounting system. The components are adaptable to any style of cabinets provided they have a flat bottom face rather than a stepped bottom face. With this system, any cabinet maker can now present their cabinets as seismically qualified as long as their carcass utilizes these seismic mounts.

Abstract: A method of making a cabinet carcass using a pair of connectable box carcass framework members for the fabrication of non-panel constructed furniture carcasses. It simplifies the construction of a furniture carcass and uses but a minimum of tools and skill to produce a dimensionally square, precisely sized, box that accepts an abundance of aesthetic and functional options. The assembly is based on a pair of mechanical fastener connectable vertical and horizontal members that have connectable zipper channels, linear rabbets for the retention of side panels, screw busses, and open channels with series of spaced orifices therein for the passage of mechanical connectors.

Abstract: An antimicrobial application system is disclosed, comprising an antimicrobial application unit and a recycle unit. An initial, dilute antimicrobial composition is prepared. The composition is provided to the antimicrobial application unit and applied to work pieces, such as raw poultry. After application to the work pieces, the composition is returned to the recycle tank. The concentration of the antimicrobial in the recycle tank is monitored, and additional antimicrobial is automatically added if the concentration of the antimicrobial in the composition falls below a desired amount. The composition is periodically diverted to a capture tank, and the antimicrobial is selectively removed from the composition. The removed antimicrobial and remaining composition are then disposed of in appropriate manners. The antimicrobial is preferably a quaternary ammonium compound, is more preferably an alkylpyridinium chloride, and is most preferably cetylpyridinium chloride.
