Abstract: A pyrotechnically powered actuator having a bellows that provides a force and stroke upon initiation is disclosed. The actuator includes a housing body with a first end and a second end. The bellows is coupled to the first end of the housing body. A cover is coupled to the second end of the housing body. An initiator is located within the housing body and includes a pyrotechnic material and a bridge element. The housing body, the bellows, and the cover define a hermetically sealed chamber. The bellows is compact, lightweight, and can withstand internal and external pressure at least as high as 3,000 psi. An exemplary embodiment includes a housing body that provides a compartment for adding supplemental pyrotechnic material. Further exemplary embodiments of the actuator include a chip initiator that requires less than 1 amp to function in less than 10 milliseconds.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct short-day variety of strawberry plant named ‘PS-5016’. This new strawberry variety ‘PS-5016’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, and is primarily characterized by its large plant size, vigorous growth rate with flowers visible above the plant for most of the year, large foliage size, light green in color and strongly concave in cross section, highly productive with fruit ripening beginning early, and produced fruit is small in size, medium red in color, conical in shape with excellent firmness, gloss and appearance.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct short-day variety of strawberry plant named ‘PS-4634’. This new strawberry variety ‘P-4634’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the central coast of California, and is primarily characterized by its large plant size, strong vigor rate, large foliage with medium to strong blistering and gloss, highly productive with fruit harvest beginning as early as late March in Salinas, Calif., producing upwards of 15% to 20% of its production by the end of May, and produced fruit is very large in size, light red in color, conical in shape with very good firmness and gloss.

Abstract: This invention relates to a new and distinct short-day variety of strawberry plant named ‘BG-1975’. This new strawberry variety ‘BG-1975’ is primarily adapted to the growing conditions of the southern coast of California, and is primarily characterized by foliage medium to small in size and light to medium green in color, production is early, beginning as early as late December, producing upwards of 50% to 60% of it production by the end of March, produced fruit is attractive and of excellent quality, produced fruit is orange red to red in color, medium to large in size, very firm, conical to cylindrical in shape with a smooth surface lacking creases and ridges, and seeds may be slightly sunken below the surface.
