20140265591 | Auto-Synchronous Isolated Inlet Power Converter - An auto-synchronous isolated inlet power converter is disclosed that can be daisy-chained with other power converters and/or an alternating current (AC) power source. The power converter automatically generates output AC power that is in parallel with external input AC power coming into the power converter when the power converter senses the external input AC power so that the power converter operates as a slave in this state. The power converter automatically generates output AC power when the power converter fails to detect the external input AC power coming into the power converter where the power converter operates as a master in this state. The power converter generates the output AC power without any reliance on the external input AC power generated by a utility grid and/or other AC power sources external to the power converter. | 09-18-2014 |

20140258245 | EFFICIENT DATA DEDUPLICATION - Efficient data deduplication is described herein. A deduplication bit array partition can be created that corresponds to a number of data items in an expected dataset. The deduplication bit array partition can track whether the data items have been received. When a data item in the expected dataset is received, a bit in the deduplication bit array partition corresponding to the received data item can be accessed to determine, based on the value of the bit, if the received data item has already been received. When the value of the bit indicates that the received data item has not already been received, the value can be changed to indicate that the data item has now been received. When the value of the bit indicates that the received data item has already been received, the data item can be deleted or ignored. | 09-11-2014 |

20140262152 | Poultry Chiller with Multi-Blade Long-Pitch Auger - An auger-type poultry chiller having an auger with multiple long-pitch auger blades. The blades of the auger create pockets that spiral around the auger shaft and extend the length of the auger. While the product in the chiller is locked into a certain pocket, it is not locked into a certain spot lengthwise in the chiller. The product, therefore, is able to distribute evenly along the length of the chiller within its pocket even if there are gaps in loading time or if unloading stops momentarily. | 09-18-2014 |
20140272035 | Auto-Cleaning Marination Filter for Poultry Injector System - An auto-cleaning marination filter for a poultry injector system including an outer housing having a liquid inlet and outlet, a screen that allows passage of liquids and impedes passage of solid particles, and a wiper surrounded by said screen for removing solid particles attached to the screen by reverse flow of the liquid through a gap in the wiper. | 09-18-2014 |
20150064319 | Method of Injection of an Antimicrobial Composition for Rapid Cooling of Poultry During Processing - A method for rapidly cooling poultry carcasses during processing by injecting the carcasses with a composition including water and an antimicrobial agent. The composition may be in slush ice form or liquid form. The antimicrobial agent, such as peroxide, plays a critical role in this method. The antimicrobial agent serves to lower the freezing point of the chilled water of the composition below 32 degrees F., which allows greater heat exchange when the chilled water composition is injected into the warm interior of the carcasses. The antimicrobial agent also prevents bacterial contamination of the carcasses as a result of the possible transfer of bacteria from the exterior surface of the carcasses into the interior of the carcasses during injection. | 03-05-2015 |
20150129170 | Three-Paddle Rocker Chiller - A rocker-type poultry chiller, including a tank for receiving poultry carcasses and holding chilled water, an axle mounted in the tank, a main paddle connected to the axle, and a side paddle connected to the axle. The oscillation of the main paddle and the side paddle urges the carcasses upwardly and laterally, which contributes to the cooling of the carcasses as a result of their thorough contact in the chilled water. The movement of the paddles also gently massages the carcasses by gently bumping them against the paddle blades and the wall of the tank. The repeated compression of the carcasses tends to tenderize the meat. The side paddles ensure more predictable and consistent contact between the paddles and all of the carcasses, which causes more agitation of the carcasses and more effective washing of the carcasses. | 05-14-2015 |
