Heat to cooling converter

The present invention is embodied in a pair of electrically connected energy conversion devices. One device, converting thermal energy to electric energy is electrically connected to the second thermally isolated device which is converting electric energy to cooling. Thermal isolation is achieved by using an electrically conducting adiabatic wall which is maintained at constant temperature. The constant temperature of the wall is maintained by removing excessive heat by conduction, convection, or radiation.

System and method of shipping scheduling involving parallel port operations using prepositioned vessels

A method and system for scheduling vessels among a number of shipping companies to obtain parallel transport cycle as part of a vessel and voyage assignment scheduling system. Port laytime and parallel port service cycle time is scheduled efficiently by port operators by providing a berth for an inbound vessel and the transfer of crew from an inbound vessel to an outbound vessel already pre-serviced for departure such that the crew is not required to remain at port during the port service cycle. Unloading of cargo and reloading of cargo on an inbound vessel is performed prior to the timing of the crew transfer so that the crew transfers to the pre-serviced vessel and exit support system to proceed to the next port of call without minimum amount of delay in the port at which they arrive.

Laying-down system and vision-based automatic primal cutting system in connection therewith

In the primal cutting-up of half carcasses of animals (12), vision systems are known whereby the determination of one or more fix points on the carcasses takes place, and where on the basis of the position of these points a visualization of the ideal cut line is effected. But the primal cutting-up of carcasses (12) has hitherto been carried out with manually-operated saws on the basis of operator evaluation. However, the use of manually-operated saws involves the possibility of deviations in relation to the ideal cut line, and the manual work is very monotonous and fatiguing for the operators. There is thus disclosed a system as well as a laying-down module (2) and a vision-based system for automatic primal cutting-up of half carcasses, comprising a laying-down module with a laying-down conveyor (18), and a laying-down and angle-positioning module (6) with sideways displaceable conveyors for positioning of a relevant carcass (12) for sawing-up in a subsequent saw module (8), and a method for the execution of automatic primal cutting-up of meat items, namely half carcasses of animals.
