  • Patent number: 12251920
    Abstract: A multi-laminate film includes a first biaxially oriented film having a first machine direction angle and a first spiral cut oriented film having a second machine direction angle different than the first machine direction angle. The multi-laminate film also includes at least one of a second biaxially oriented film having the first machine direction angle or a second spiral cut oriented film. The first biaxially oriented film, the first spiral cut oriented film and the at least one of the second biaxially oriented film or second spiral cut oriented film are laminated together.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7201114
    Abstract: Apparatuses for directing the displacement of aquatic crustaceans are provided and are particularly used to carry out the methods for attracting the motion of aquatic crustaceans after feeding by utilizing their biological tendency responding to a bright and dark contrast. These apparatuses generate the visual effect of bright and dark contrast at a predetermined place within the water body of culture and comprise a container for carrying the water body of culture and a predetermined place inside said container expressing an effect of bright and dark contrast. Light emitters themselves or protrusions and/or painted patterns/figures and/or filtration of light filters, under the existence of illuminating light, are used for generating visual effect of the bright and dark contrast.

  • Patent number: 7174850
    Abstract: By directing the none-molting crustaceans to move into a predetermined area in a culture tank, the present invention discloses a multi-layered aquaculture system with shallow-water containers which is based upon the utilization of the methods and apparatus to eliminate their cannibalistic actions towards newly molted mates. This multi-layered aquaculture system for aquatic crustaceans comprises multi-layered containers for carrying the water body of culture and a means for generating an effect of bright and dark contrast at predetermined places within one or every afore-said containers. A means for arranging even water flow is further adapted to the containers with substantially no impact on the effect of the bright and dark contrast to take place at predetermined places.

  • Publication number: 20060042554
    Abstract: A method for directing the displacement of aquatic crustaceans after feeding by utilizing their biological tendency responding to a bright and dark contrast is provided. This method comprises steps to generate the visual effect of this bright and dark contrast at a predetermined place within the water body of culture. Light coming from light emitters directly or from reflection of protrusions and/or painted patterns/figures, and/or filtration of light filters, with the existence of illuminating light, are used for generating visual effect of the bright and dark contrast.
