摘要： Mobile systems for cleaning and drying produce in order to extend shelf life, are described. Produce cleaning systems (20) are provided that employ plural forms of energy in an ionic liquid-based washing system (22, 24, 26) containing solvents and solutes which promote the conduction of electrical energy. The electrical energy can be applied to the produce in the wash bath (24) in various waveforms, such as a modulating wave superimposed on a carrier wave. Additionally, ultrasonic energy is employed to provide high-frequency mechanical pressure waves against the produce. The electrical energy and the mechanical energy combine to produce energy in the applicable resonant frequency range that acts to destroy or transform pathogens, dirt and synthetic molecules that may exist on the item of produce (190). Systems for drying the item of produce (190), after it has been immersed in a natural soluteladen slurry maintained at a temperature below the freezing point of water, are also provided. The drying process is rapidly and effectively accelerated in order to fully crystallize a layer of solute-laden slurry that has been applied on the external surface of an item of produce (190).

摘要： Disclosed is a process for extending the shelf life of produce. First the fruit or vegetable is transferred from the harvesting stage to a wash bath which is maintained at a temperature of approximately 90.degree. F. and vibrated at an ultrasonic frequency to wash the produce. Next, the produce is transferred from the wash bath to a snap freeze slurry which consists of byproducts of the produce along with certain sugars and acids in order to snap freeze the produce for approximately 10 seconds. Next, the produce is transferred to an incubation cell which maintains the produce at a constant temperature within the range of 60.degree.-70.degree. F. for approximately 48 hours in order to dry and crystallize the slurry material on the produce. Using the method of the present invention, the shelf life of the produce can be greatly extended and certain taste and quality values enhanced for many species of produce.

摘要： Methods and systems for extending the shelf life of produce are disclosed which provide an accelerated drying process for washed produce in order to further clean and fully crystallize a layer of solute-laden slurry that has been applied on the external surface of an item of produce (20). The drying process typical comprises three basic steps. The first step (10) is to mechanically remove excess moisture from the solute-laden slurry to form a moisture-reduced slurry layer (22) on the external surface of the item of produce (20). The second step (12) is to employ heat and/or light energy to accelerate the in-situ moisture removal process to create a protective stratum (24) on the external surface of the item of produce (20). The third step (14) is to further remove remaining moisture to permit the formation of crystalline structures (26) on the external surface of the item of produce (20).

摘要： A submersible dock system with mooring pilings which folds down for storage underwater. The dock system includes a deck or mainspan normally above water, a submerged horizontal frame and, if necessary, leveling structure and a plurality of vertical support structures extending between the submerged frame and dock. The submerged frame, vertical structures and mainspan of the deck are all preferably constructed of rectangular tubing members which are pivotally joined in key places to enable the deck to be pivoted from an upright position to a substantially supine position underwater. The dock system also includes a plurality of telescoping members to hold the deck in an upright position. The height of the dock walkway is also easily adjusted to accommodate changes in water levels. Storage of the deck and vertical structures under water is achieved by pulling pins or other fasteners out of the telescoping diagonal connecting members so that they are free to collapse by shortening or lengthening, thereby allowing the vertical members to pivot about hinged points of the deck and submerged frame. The galvanized steel tubular members are made more corrosion resistant by use of sacrificial anodes and regular performations in the tubular members.
摘要翻译：一个潜水码头系统，系泊系泊，折叠下来存放在水下。码头系统包括通常在水面上的甲板或主跨，浸没的水平框架，以及必要时的整平结构以及在浸没的框架和底座之间延伸的多个垂直支撑结构。甲板的浸没框架，垂直结构和主跨都优选地由矩形管件构成，其在关键位置枢转地连接，以使甲板能够从直立位置枢转到水下的大致仰卧位置。码头系统还包括多个伸缩构件以将甲板保持在直立位置。码头走道的高度也很容易调整，以适应水位的变化。甲板和垂直结构在水下的存储是通过将销或其它紧固件拉出伸缩对角连接构件来实现的，使得它们通过缩短或延长而自由地折叠，从而允许垂直构件绕着甲板的铰接点枢转，淹没框架通过使用牺牲阳极和管状构件中的规则表现，镀锌钢管状构件更加耐腐蚀。

摘要： A dock assembly wherein single or interconnected composite beam mainspans are connected to a ramp extending from shore to the first neighboring mainspan and one end of each of said mainspans is supported by a tripod structure and the other end by vertical members. The composite beam mainspans comprise deck structures in combination with pre-tensioned cables, said cables being connected to the ends of the deck structures and extending obliquely along the underside of said deck structures in spaced relationship to the mid-point of said structures. Means attaching the principal members of said assembly are provided whereby the dock assembly may be readily installed or disassembled, or optionally, after removal of the mainspans and ramp, the support structures may be rotated at their footings for underwater storage. Height of the mainspan is adjustable for mainspan leveling and adjusting mainspan height from the water surface.
