摘要:
The invention concerns an antenna assembly (102) and a method (600) of operation thereof. In one arrangement, the antenna assembly can include a first antenna element (202) and a second antenna element (204), electrically disconnected from the first antenna element and a switching element (210) to selectively connect the first antenna element and the second antenna element. In another arrangement, the method can include the steps of sliding (604) the switching element to a first position to operate the antenna assembly in a first mode of operation and sliding (606) the switching element to a second position to operate the antenna assembly in a second mode of operation. As an example, in the first mode of operation, the antenna assembly can operate as a one-half wavelength antenna. In the second mode of operation, the antenna assembly can operate as a quarter wavelength antenna.

A five-sided interlocking block. At least one side, and preferably at least three sides, of the block is adapted to engage the same side of a similar block to interlock the blocks. At least one side of the block may also be adapted to rotatably engage the same side of a similar block. At least three sides of the block may also include anti-shear receptacles. The anti-shear receptacles on any side of two blocks may be aligned and shear prevention components inserted therein to interlock the blocks. The block may further include an optional interior space, enabling the block to be used as a container for appropriate material.

A blister packaging production line preferably includes an unmarked supply of backing for blister packaging, a printer for selectively printing on the backing and a host system controlling the printer and providing a variety of desired designs to the printer. The design being printed on the backing can be changed on-demand by transmitting a new design from the host system to the printer. Additionally, a blister packaging production line may include an unmarked supply of material backing for blister packaging, a printer for selectively printing on the material and a shaping device for forming recesses in the material that will receive items being blister packaged. The printed design can be of any desired length.

The invention provides a process for producing pimiento paste for use in stuffing olives. The process involves sorting and chopping pimiento, preserving it in brine, washing the preserved pimiento to desalt it, mixing the desalted pimiento with sodium alginate, guar gum, potassium sorbate, and water, and homogenizing the resulting mass until a gelatinous mixture is obtained from which any entrapped air is thereafter removed. The resulting uniform, semi-liquid paste is spread on a conveyor belt where it gradually thickens, then is submerged in a calcium chloride bath to precipitate the alginic acid, after which the paste becomes hardened, separates from the conveyor belt, and is removed.

A fuel/vapor separator apparatus for de-vaporizing fuel entrained with vapor has a hollow canister defining a separation chamber. The canister has an input port for receiving the fuel entrained with vapor, an output port in communication with the engine for removal of the de-vapored fuel from the chamber, and a vapor port for removal of the released vapor from the chamber. A screen element is located in the separation chamber of the canister between the input port and the output port for agitating the fuel to release the vapor from the fuel. The apparatus has a valving arrangement for connecting the vapor port to the reservoir. The valving arrangement has at least three ports. The vapor port of the canister is in communication with the first port of the valving arrangement. The reservoir is in communication with the second port of the valving arrangement, and ambient air is in communication with the third port. The valving arrangement has a conduit with a control pin for selecting the venting of the separation chamber through the vapor port to either the fuel tank or the ambient air.

A quick release pedestal for a vehicle seat comprising a base member rigidly attachable to a floor portion of a vehicle and defining first and second pairs of elongate slots extending in spaced, parallel relation therein. Releasably attachable to the base member is a seat support member including a first pair of hook members oriented so as to be receivable into the first pair of slots and a second pair of hook members oriented so as to be receivable into the second pair of slots. The seat support member further includes a mechanism for releasing the seat support member from engagement to the base member when the first pair of hook members are received into the first pair of slots and the second pair of hook members received into the second pair of slots.

A microtray for handling biosubstances comprises a fluid holding structure and a fluid ejection structure. The fluid holding structure includes an array of wells with each well configured to contain at least one biosubstance. The fluid ejection structure is in communication with the fluid holding structure and configured to dispense the at least one biosubstance onto a target media.

A Bacillus thuringiensis strain isolate, designated EG5092, exhibits insecticidal activity against lepidopteran insects. A purified and isolated novel cryET1 toxin gene product from B.t. strain EG5092 exhibits specific insecticidal activity against Plutella xylostella (Diamondback moth). The cryET1 gene (SEQ ID NO:1) has a nucleotide base sequence illustrated in FIG. 1 and produces a CryET1 gene product (SEQ ID NO:2) having a deduced amino acid sequence illustrated in FIG. 1.
