  • Patent number: 12100272
    Abstract: Systems and methods for theft reduction of grain are disclosed. A grain cart includes a theft detection system that monitors grain onboarded into the grain cart from a harvesting machine, and grain offloaded from the grain cart to a trailer. The theft detection system measures a weight value of the grain received from the harvesting machine, and transmits the weight value to a tracking system. Additionally, the theft detection system can receive an expected grain weight value from the harvesting machine and compare the measured weight value with the received weight value, and provide a notification (e.g., alarm) of the difference is greater than a predetermined threshold. The theft detection system can provide similar functions between weight values of grain in the grain cart and a trailer. Also, the theft detection system can encrypt transmit the weight values prior to transmitting to the tracking system.

  • Patent number: 9072529
    Abstract: A cannula (1) comprising a central axis (2), a front end (3) and a through channel (5) coaxial or parallel to said central axis (2) and defining a peripheral wall (12) of said cannula (1), wherein A) said cannula (1) further comprises at least two perforations (8) penetrating said peripheral wall (12) transversely to said central axis (2); B) said through channel (5) is open at said front end (3); and C) the cross section of said through channel (5) has a contraction (6) with a diameter di located between the front most of said at least two perforations (8) and said front end (3) which is formed as a guidance for a wire (7). A device (10) for liquid jet irrigation of bone comprising such a cannula (1) and a wire (7).

  • Patent number: 6073163
    Abstract: A method and system for executing an application at a client are described. An application is divided into portions. A first portion of code for the application is transmitted to the client over a network. The first portion of code is executed at the client to cause the client to generate a user interface that is displayed by the client, detect user interaction with the user interface, and transmit from the client over the network messages that indicate the user interaction with the user interface. A second portion of code for the application is executed at a node of the network other than the client. The second portion of code causes the node on which it is executing to respond to user interface messages from the client by (1) generating records that indicate changes to the user interface, and (2) transmitting the records to the first portion of code. The first portion of code responds to the messages by performing the specified changes to the user interface.
