Abstract: A high friction material is disposed on the belt module (20) inside a peripheral frame. Openings (71) extend from the bottom walls of channels (72) or of peripheral frame to opposite side of belt module. The channels or holes having side walls and bottom walls defining a second recessed portion are disposed inside the peripheral frame which is disposed around a portion of an intermediate section (41). First and second link ends (26,29) and the peripheral frame having side wall and bottom wall define a first recessed portion. The first link ends extend in the travel direction of the conveyor belt. The second link ends extend in a direction opposite the first link ends, and are being offset from the first link ends such that adjacently positioned belt modules are capable of intercalating so that first link ends of one belt module fit into spaces defined between the second link ends of an adjacent belt module. An independent claim is also included for a modular conveyor belt used in conveying food products.

Abstract: A method of inhibiting dissolution of a transition metal alloy anode ( 40 ) of an aluminium electrowinning cell comprises providing a barrier layer ( 11,20,50,50 ') on a non-anodic structural cell material ( 15 ), such as carbon, and electrolysing alumina dissolved in a molten electrolyte ( 30 ). The non-anodic structural material is able to supply an oxidisable by-product to the electrolyte and/or is active for reducing electrolyte species exposed to the structural material into an oxidisable by-product, such as sodium metal or carbon dust. However, the barrier layer inhibits the presence in the molten electrolyte ( 30 ) of the oxidisable by-product that constitutes an agent for chemically reducing the anode's transition metal oxides and anodically evolved oxygen. This inhibits reduction of the anode's transition metal oxides by the oxidisable by-product and maintains the anodically evolved oxygen at a concentration such as to produce, at the alloy/oxide layer interface, stable and coherent transition metal oxides having a high level of oxidation. The barrier layer may comprise molten aluminium ( 20 ) and/or a layer of refractory hard material ( 11,50,50 ').

Abstract: The invention relates to an axial gap dynamo-electric machine comprising a rotor having a revolving shaft supported by a bearing and a magnet for generating a magnetic field, a stator yoke disposed so as to oppose the rotor, and a plurality of teeth being disposed on the magnet-opposed surface of the stator yoke substantially in the shape of a partly removed circle, wherein a removed portion is free of teeth, the partially removed circle having a midpoint at a predetermined point in relation to a center axis of the bearing and opposing the magnet at a predetermined gap.  The invention aims to provide an improved axial gap dynamo-electric machine having a structure in which some of the teeth in the stator are missing, to limit inclination of a rotor caused by such missing of the teeth.  Therefore, the invention provides that circumferential pitches among the plurality of teeth are set to differ from each other, in particular, so that an attractive force of the magnet is set to increase towards the removed portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mechanism for providing mobility for IPv4 traffic using Mobile IPv6 protocol. Bindings are maintained in a first network node, each binding being an association of the home address with the care-of address of the mobile node. When the care-of address changes, the mobile node sends a binding update packet, said binding update packet including the new care-of address and the home address of the mobile node. A binding between the IPv4 home address and the IPv6 care-of address of the mobile node is notified in the packet by inserting in the packet an IPv6 address with the IPv4 home address embedded in it. When said binding has been created, IPv4 packets can be forwarded to the mobile node through an IPv4-in-IPv6 tunnel.
