  • Patent number: 10099326
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an automatic forming machine for plant growth supports, comprising a ring rolling system with a ring rolling unit, a mold system with a mold unit, and a welding system, which are all disposed on a machine frame, wherein the ring rolling unit can roll a metal wire and make the metal wire be formed into a ring with an opening in the mold unit; the mold system is for carrying the ring and making two free ends of the ring with an opening aligned or alternately overlap with each other; the welding system welds can weld the opening of the ring carried by the mold unit, causing the ring to become a closed ring. The present disclosure has a high automatic degree and can reduce the production time and labor cost.

  • Patent number: 8829172
    Abstract: A method of generating a barcoded Paired-End Ditag (bPED) nucleic acid fragment is disclosed. The method comprises: a) performing a first ligation by ligating a half-adaptor with one or two 3?-overhanging ends to a target nucleic acid to obtain a nucleic acid fragment with two ends each attached to one of the half-adaptor, the half adaptor comprising a half-barcode and a restriction enzyme (RE) recognition site; b) performing a second ligation by ligating two of the half-adaptor at the two ends of the nucleic acid fragment to form a circularized nucleic acid construct, wherein the circularized nucleic acid construct comprises a full-size barcoded adaptor; and c) digesting the circularized nucleic acid construct with a RE that cleaves at a defined distance from the RE recognition site, and thereby generating the bPED nucleic acid fragment.

  • Patent number: 5352295
    Abstract: This invention relates to a combined rotary engine with an eccentric rotor and a single vane. The engine comprises at least a set consisting of a compressing portion and a working portion with similar structure combined side by side, and sharing a common output shaft. The gas is sucked into the compressing portion to be compressed, and is then translated to the adjacent working portion to ignite for working. The features of the engine are that power is translated out by the output shaft driven by the vane directly, wear is low, the adjacent compressing portion and working portion may have optimum volume ratio, the utilization of energy is high and oiling and cooling are executed easily.
