Abstract: The present invention provides compositions, useful for making lyocell fibers, having a high hemicellulose content, a low copper number and including cellulose that has a low average degree of polymerization (D.P.) and a narrow molecular weight distribution. Further, the present invention provides processes for making compositions, useful for making lyocell fibers, by contacting an alkaline pulp having a high hemicellulose content of at least about 7% with an oxidant sufficient to reduce the average degree of polymerization to about 200 to 1100 without substantially reducing the hemicellulose content or increasing the copper number of the pulp.

Abstract: A household appliance, in particular, a food processor, includes a housing with at least two housing parts joined together, and in which there is an electric operating element, of which an electric circuit has a control member actuated by an actuating element disposed on the outside of the housing. Because the control member is fastened on a carrier part disposed in a floating manner directly or indirectly on the one housing part, at least one aligning element is provided on the other housing part that, when the housing parts are joined together, comes into engagement with a mating aligning element provided on the carrier part. The aligning element on the other housing part is aligned to an installation opening provided thereon for mounting the actuating element. Improved thereby is production of the electrical connections between the operating element and the control member and coupling the actuating element to the control member.

Abstract: In a method for applying a layer containing at least polymer material to a substrate, there is applied to the substrate a film of polymer particles dispersed in a non-reactive liquid. By subjecting these at least polymer material-containing particles to an energy flow, which is locally at least substantially converted into heat, the particles will fuse with each other as a result of such a heat treatment. In particular, the heat treatment is done with the aid of a laser device operative in the UV region, or a laser device operative outside this region, though then in combination with a heat transferring agent in the film.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent garment includes a topsheet, a backsheet, and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The topsheet, the backsheet, and the absorbent core form a layered assembly including a front region, a back region, and a crotch region disposed between the front region and the back region. The garment is characterized by a vertical longitudinal plane that extends substantially centrally through the front, back and crotch regions. Each of the front and back regions includes a pair of ear portions extending in substantially opposite lateral directions with respect to the longitudinal plane. Each ear portion is a breathable stretchable layer assembly having a plurality of vent sites. Further, each ear portion includes an outer layer that is an extension of the backsheet and which extends laterally to the side edge of the ear portion, and an inner layer that is an extension of the topsheet and which also extends laterally to the side edge of the ear portion. The ear portion also includes a stretchable material layer secured between the inner layer and the outer layer. The topsheet includes a central section that is generally disposed in a center section of the garment and over the core. Each of a pair of side sections of the topsheet extends laterally and forms the inner layer of two of the ear portions. The side section also forms an outer wall section of a leg cuff that extends longitudinally along the lateral side of the core. An inner wall section of the leg cuff is a portion of a substantially impervious material that extends below the leg cuff to sealingly engage the side edge of a polymeric film barrier disposed underneath the core. The substantially impervious material and the polymeric film barrier combine to form a substantially impervious containment structure about the sides and bottom of the core.

Abstract: A pump used to infuse a medical liquid into a patient is autoprimed under the control of a microprocessor that monitors and adjusts a priming sequence to minimize the accumulation of small air bubbles within a pumping chamber of the cassette. Small air bubbles can be created by the agitation of liquid and air within the cassette during priming, and as a result of changing pressure conditions within the cassette. Adherence of the air bubbles on the walls of the pumping chamber can negatively affect performance of the pump. The microprocessor controls the flow of liquid into the pump cassette from a liquid supply to establish a layer of liquid at the bottom of the air trap, thereby preventing air bubbles within the air trap from moving into the pumping chamber. The layer of liquid acts as a one-way valve, allowing air to rise up from the pumping chamber and pass through the liquid layer into the air trap, but preventing air from passing through the liquid layer and down into the pumping chamber. The microprocessor then back primes the cassette until air is removed from the proximal liquid line connecting the liquid supply to the cassette. At that point, liquid is pumped from the liquid supply to forward prime the cassette until air is removed from the pumping chamber and a distal liquid line.

Abstract: A Short Data Service (SDS) message 6 for sending an encrypted TETRA type-4 SDS message includes an encryption marker 7 that indicates that the message 6 includes an encrypted user message. The marker 7 is followed by an encryption header 8, which might consist of an encryption algorithm indicator, a key identifier, an initial value for synchronisation and a time stamp and check sum. The rest of the message follows the normal TETRA type-4 SDS message structure but is encrypted. The message may be sent as a type-4 SDS message using SDS-TL, or as an OTAR (over-the-air-rekeying) type short data message. Particular protocol identifiers (PID) 9 in the existing message structure may be used to indicate an encrypted message rather than an additional marker. The fully or partially encrypted SDS message may be packaged in a standard format short data message.
