| 20100092087 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING IMAGE BINARIZATION - Methods and apparatus for binarizing images represented by sets of multivalent pixel values in a computationally efficient manner are described In a grayscale image to be binarized, one group of pixel values represents “foreground”, e.g., text to be converted to black, while another group represents a shaded “background” region to be converted, e.g., to white. The difference between foreground and background is often a function of the scale of the image components, e.g., text and/or other images. Filters in the form of morphological operators, computationally efficient quick-open and quick-close morphological operators are employed to binarize images, e.g., grayscale images. The methods and apparatus effectively handle both smooth and sharp image background structures in a computationally efficient manner. | 04-15-2010 |

| 20110180150 | FLUID DELIVERY SYSTEM - A fluid delivery system is described which provides stable flow rates over a range of different flow rates and while multiple fluids are being concurrently delivered. The delivery system includes one or more reservoirs each containing a respective fluid to be transferred. The reservoir(s) are positioned within a secondary fluid selected such that the reservoir(s) and their contents, i.e. the fluids to be transferred, float within the secondary fluid. One end of a flow conduit is submerged in each fluid to be transferred. A pressure differential is then induced in the flow conduit whereby fluid flow therein occurs. | 07-28-2011 |

| 20100322015 | Split Gate NAND Flash Memory Structure and Array, Method of Programming, Erasing and Reading Thereof, and Method of Manufacturing - A split gate NAND flash memory structure is formed on a semiconductor substrate of a first conductivity type. The NAND structure comprises a first region of a second conductivity type in the substrate with a second region of the second conductivity type in the substrate, spaced apart from the first region. A continuous first channel region is defined between the first region and the second region. A plurality of floating gates are spaced apart from one another with each positioned over a separate portion of the channel region. A plurality of control gates are provided with each associated with and adjacent to a floating gate. Each control gate has two portions: a first portion over a portion of the channel region and a second portion over the associated floating gate and capacitively coupled thereto. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20110121114 | MATERIAL MIXER WITH MULTI-FLIGHTED AUGER - The invention relates to a mixer that includes at least one multi-flighted auger for mixing together materials, especially livestock feed. The multi-flighted auger rotates about a generally vertical axis. The flights include a kicker knife at the bottom and chopper knives around their periphery. The upper surface of the flights may be perpendicular to a shaft about which the auger rotates, or may be concave or slanted generally upwardly to encourage the material being mixed to remain in contact with the auger. | 05-26-2011 |

| 20090124169 | CNC ABRASIVE FLUID-JET MILLING - A method and apparatus for milling a desired pocket in a solid workpiece uses an abrasive fluid-jet by moving and suitably orienting the abrasive fluid-jet relative to the workpiece. The method includes defining a path of the abrasive fluid-jet necessary to mill a desired pocket in the solid workpiece. The path is defined by a number of parameters. The parameters include a translation velocity, a fluid pressure, and an abrasive fluid-jet position and orientation relative to the workpiece. Generating a command set is according to the defined path and is configured to drive a computer numerical control manipulator system. | 05-14-2009 |

| 20100000141 | Fish pressure equilbrating tool - A tool for releasing excess air from the swim bladder of a fish. The present invention includes a puncturer situated in a housing and a push rod which extends out of the housing for pushing the puncturer out of the housing and into the swim bladder of the fish. When the tool is employed, the excess air passes through the puncturer into the housing and then out vents located in the side wall of the housing. The puncturer is spring biased to remain in the covered position until the user applies an external force to the push rod to expose the puncturer. | 01-07-2010 |

| 20080205978 | Cable actuated pin latching mechanism with automatic cable tension and pin release features - A cable actuated pin latching mechanism adapted for releasably connecting a header to a feeder of a combine, which automatically maintains predetermined tension conditions on the cable during normal latching and unlatching operation, and when an actuator of the mechanism is held in an unlatch position with the latch pin stuck or restrained, applies and maintains a tension force for releasing the pin, for instance, to enable a user to move to the operator cab to operate lift, tilt and/or other controls, as required for freeing the pin. | 08-28-2008 |
| 20090156278 | Pivoting conveyor including a holding mechanism configurable for holding the conveyor in multiple positions - A pivoting conveyor and a mechanism easily and quickly configurable in a first manner for holding the conveyor in a first position, and in a second manner for holding the conveyor in a second position. The mechanism is connected between the conveyor housing and an adjacent structure or frame, and includes a first link pivotally connected to the frame, and a second link pivotally connected to the conveyor housing, the first link and the second link being pivotally connected at a pivotal connection. The mechanism is configured such that as the conveyor housing is in the first position, the first and second links will be in a generally aligned relationship so as to hold the conveyor housing, and the housing can be released by pivoting the second link from the aligned relationship. When the conveyor housing is in the second position, the links will be in overlapping relation so as to hold the conveyor housing, and the housing can be released by pivoting the second link. The mechanism can be operated with one hand, and can include a handle for convenience. | 06-18-2009 |
