Patent number: 11357160Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of automatically calibrating a liquid treatment system in a seed treater. The method is performed by pumping a seed treatment liquid using a seed treater pump, receiving the seed treatment liquid in a container, detecting when a predetermined volume of seed treatment liquid has filled the container using a first level sensor and a second level sensor and automatically adjusting a flow rate of the liquid in response to a time required to fill the container. Adjusting the flow rate may be done by adjusting a speed of the pump.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2018Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: AG GROWTH INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Dan Bardi, Michael Dehaan, Jared Marr

Publication number: 20190159397Abstract: A seed treater having an automatic calibration system comprises a pump for pumping a seed treatment liquid, a container downstream of the pump for receiving the seed treatment liquid from the pump, the container having a first level sensor and a second level sensor between which a predetermined volume is defined and for signalling when the predetermined volume of seed treatment liquid has filled the container, an applicator for applying the seed treatment to seeds and a controller for automatically adjusting a flow rate of the liquid in response to a time required to fill the container. Adjusting the flow rate may be done by adjusting a speed of the pump.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2018Publication date: May 30, 2019Inventors: Dan Bardi, Michael Dehaan, Jared Marr

Patent number: 8713177Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for the remote configuration of networked systems using a secure modular platform. A network management engine communicates with a set of remote machines, such as a collection of clients or servers on a network. The network management engine can present a systems administrator with a set of compact network commands to permit the administrator to interrogate, configure, and manage the set of controlled machines on a dynamic basis. The network management engine can, for instance, install or update software, detect viruses on the controlled machines, perform an inventory of installed hardware on the controlled machines, and perform other network management functions using pre-configured functions and APIs built into a network library or command directory.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2008Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.Inventors: Michael DeHaan, Adrian Likins, Seth Vidal

Patent number: 8271975Abstract: The present invention provides a unified provisioning environment, which comprehensively manages the tasks related to software provisioning. In particular, the present invention manages software provisioning using a hierarchy of commands. The lowest level in the hierarchy comprises distribution commands, which primarily handle base operating system specific tasks of provisioning. The second level comprises profile commands, which associate a configuration file, such as a Linux kickstart file, with a distribution and optionally allow for customization. The third level comprises system commands, which associate remote systems that are involved with the provisioning of the software. The fourth level comprises repository commands, which address configurations and tasks related to updating the software, remote installation procedures, and optionally customizing the software.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2012Date of Patent: September 18, 2012Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.Inventor: Michael DeHaan
