| 20090165425 | Apparatus for Packing Leafy Produce into a Tray - An automated machine for packing leafy produce into a tray involving a plunger, the plunger having an actuator arm and a footpad, the footpad having an upper surface and a lower surface, being in moveable relation to the actuator arm, for contacting the leafy produce. | 07-02-2009 |
| 20110047938 | EXTRUSION METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PACKAGING SEGMENTS OF A FOOD ITEM - In an automated method for handling and packaging agriculturally grown food items, at least a portion of the exterior of the food item is removed to expose its interior region. From the exposed interior region, a number of food segments are extruded. For example, cylinders of pineapple or watermelon may be extruded. The extruded food segments are then inserted into a number of packaging units, such as single-serving tubes. The extrusion process for forming the food segments may be continuous with the insertion process, such as when the packaging units are located in alignment with movement of a corresponding number of extrusion members. Thus, an automated system may include a mechanized trimmer, a mechanized extrusion unit, and a mechanized packager that provides hands-free insertion of the food segments into the packaging units. | 03-03-2011 |

| 20090172630 | AUTOMATED PROCESSOR GENERATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DESIGNING A CONFIGURABLE PROCESSOR - A system for generating processor hardware supports a language for significant extensions to the processor instruction set, where the designer specifies only the semantics of the new instructions and the system generates other logic. The extension language provides for the addition of processor state, including register files, and instructions that operate on that state. The language also provides for new data types to be added to the compiler to represent the state added. It allows separate specification of reference semantics and instruction implementation, and uses this to automate design verification. In addition, the system generates formatted instruction set documentation from the language specification. | 07-02-2009 |
