International Classification:

G06K 7/10

US Classification:

700230, 702 19, 426392

Abstract:

Clamshells for packaging produce, or other unit packaging, are labeled with unique codes. Harvest crates for transporting filled clamshells from the harvest, or other containers for transporting unit packaging, are also labeled with unique codes. A plurality of labeled un-filled clamshells are nested together and placed into each harvest crate before the harvest, and the codes from the clamshells and the harvest crate are stored in association. In some instances, clamshells are de-nested, labeled with pre-printed labels, and nested again before being placed into the harvest crates. At the harvest the clamshells are removed from the harvest crate, de-nested, filled with produce, packed back into the harvest crate, and moved into the distribution chain. The unique codes are further associated with other information such as harvest data.

International Classification:

G06F 17/00

US Classification:

235375

Abstract:

Methods are provided for marking products with unique identification codes, associating times with at least some of the unique identification codes, and associating other times with certain events pertaining to the production of the marked products. These times can be used to subsequently determine whether a marked product belongs to a population that was produced before or after an event.

International Classification:

G02B 6/42

Abstract:

The removal of heat from silicon photonic integrated circuit devices is a significant issue in integrated circuit packages. As presented herein, the removal of heat may be facilitated with an optically compatible thermal interface structure on the silicon photonic integrated circuit device. These thermal interface structures may include stack-up designs, comprising an optical isolation structure and a thermal interface material, which reduces light coupling effects, while effectively conducting heat from the silicon photonic integrated circuit device to a heat dissipation device, thereby allowing effective management of the temperature of the silicon photonic integrated circuit device.

International Classification:

B62B 3/00
B65H 31/30

Abstract:

A dish cart includes a top with a slot for receiving a lift arm that may be lifted up through the slot to raise or lower dishes. Lobe openings emanating from the slot receive lobes of a lift paddle secured to the lift arm. The cart may define a gap below the top for permitting insertion of the lift paddle and the lift arm. The cart may be adjusted to receive differently sized dishes by means of rails of different sizes or adjustable vanes. A dish drop station includes the lift arm and lift paddle and a lift mechanism for raising and lower the lift arm. The dish drop station may include a cart present sensor and include a lock for retaining the cart. The controller may be programmed to the lower the lift arm to an unlock position that disengages the cart lock.
