  • Patent number: 7470097
    Abstract: The present invention is a bale flipping device, comprising a first vertical bar, a second vertical bar, a third vertical bar, a fourth vertical bar, a first pivot arm, a second pivot arm, and a third pivot arm, wherein the first pivot arm connects the first vertical bar to the third vertical bar, wherein the second pivot arm connects the second vertical bar to the fourth vertical bar, and wherein the third pivot arm is parallel to the second pivot arm and also connects the second vertical bar to the fourth vertical bar. The pivot arms are pivotally connected to the vertical bars so that the entire device can be folded up when not in use. The device is designed to be installed on the side of a New Holland small bale stacker.

  • Publication number: 20060242740
    Abstract: A method for forming one or more nano-sized patterns using one or more molecule species overlying a substrate structure. In a preferred embodiment, the pattern or patterns relate to an array of biological molecules (e.g., DNA, small molecule(s), protein(s), ligand(s)). The method applies a probe tip (e.g., atomic force microscope probe (AFM probe)) within a vicinity of a first spatial region of a surface region of a substrate member, which is characterized by a first characteristic, e.g., hydrophobic, hydrophilic, partially hydrophobic, partially hydrophilic. In a specific embodiment, the probe tip is in a direction (e.g., normal, at an angle toward) toward the spatial region on the surface region. The method includes transferring one of more of a plurality of molecules characterized by a second characteristic through a fluid medium comprising one or more surfactant species (e.g.
