Abstract: An induction hardening apparatus for inductively heating and quench hardening a crankshaft includes an arrangement of two workstations similarly configured and a robotic device indexing the crankshaft from a first workstation to a second workstation. The induction hardening apparatus is designed with a single induction coil located at the first workstation for the sequential induction heating and quench hardening of the pins of the crankshaft. At the second workstation, a single induction coil is used for the bearing surfaces of the crankshaft. One feature of the present invention is that the induction coils do not contact the surfaces of the crankshaft which are being inductively heated and quench hardened. Crankshaft dimensions and geometry are programmed into servodrive systems which move the corresponding coil in X and Y directions accurately tracing the orbit or path of each pin and each bearing surface. Another feature of the present invention is the use of an offset 180 degree coil which provides improved heating patterns in less time than traditional 90 degree coils.

Abstract: Principal components of herb or spice plant materials are simultaneously extracted and concentrated in at least one high temperature and pressure mechanical pressing step. The extract may be hydrated and then centrifuged to remove fine particulate solids and gums. A solution having several times the concentration of the pigments and flavor and aroma components of the starting raw material is obtained. The residual press solids and extract have significantly reduced bacterial counts as a result of the temperatures, high pressure, and high shear utilized, as well as the low moisture levels employed, thus producing not only a food grade extract but also a food grade residual solid having low bacterial counts and predictable, standardized levels of the principal components of interest. Additionally, edible antioxidants can be included in the process to enhance the stability of both the extract and the residual solids. The residual solids are ruptured in the process, giving rise to a quick-release and enhanced effect, and thus greater use effectiveness, when the herb or spice solids are used in foods or beverages.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel means for generating hydrogen gas which is particularly useful in domestic applications, particularly, a hydrogen-fueled gas fireplace. The hydrogen generating means comprises a filter-press electrolyzer that generates hydrogen from an electrolyte solution and has a relatively small size, e.g., about 600 mm2, and is thus convenient for domestic use. Suitable domestic applications include cooking stoves and the like as well as gas fireplaces. A hydrogen-fueled fireplace comprises a housing containing a firebox, an electrolyzer, which comprises a series of electrolytic cells, and a power module.

Abstract: A method for producing surface-treated paper, in particular of fine paper, and a dry end of a paper machine that makes use of the method. A paper web that has been dewatered by pressing is dried in the forward dryer section (D1), in which drying energy is applied to the paper web over the entire length of the forward dryer section asymmetrically in the z-direction from the side of the bottom face of the web. This step is carried out by a number of successive groups (R1-R8) with single-wire draw that are open downward. In this manner, shrinkage of the web both in the machine direction and in the cross direction is reduced or at least partially prevented, which shrinkage tends to take place when the dry solids content becomes higher. Paper broke is removed from underneath the drying groups that are open downward substantially by the force of gravity onto the broke conveyor (19) placed underneath. The paper web which has a tendency of curling because of the asymmetric forward-drying is passed to the finishing section (D2) where it is finished while it is moistened and worked plastically by passing the web through at least one calendering nip (20,40) so that the tendencies of curling that arose in the web in the forward drying stage are substantially reduced.

Abstract: The invention is based on a method for finding an Internet or E-mail address. Internet or E-mail addresses are noted in the content of many teletext pages regardless of whether they contain advertising or information. The addresses are currently transmitted within the visible area of a teletext page so that the user must normally copy them and enter them into an Internet browser. The invention is based on the object of creating a simplified method for finding an Internet or E-mail address. The method according to the invention for finding an Internet or E-mail address which is reproduced in a teletext system, comprising visible areas and non-visible areas of the teletext system, a selection unit, a control unit and a link unit, is distinguished by the fact that the address in the visible area is selected by the selection unit, the control unit recognizes the selected address, the control unit accepts and/or modifies the address format and the address is selected via the link unit.

Abstract: An electronic device (10) receives inputs using images of input devices (34a) and scanning sensors (14, 16, 22) that detect user interaction with those images. For example, an image of a mouse (346) may be projected and the user's interaction with that image may be scanned using digital video cameras (14, 16, 22). These user movement images may then be analyzed to determine, for example, the direction, extent and rate of movement of the user to provide pointer position command signals. Similarly the user's movement relative to a virtual keyboard image (34b) may be analyzed and converted into key actuation signals for responding to the actuated virtual keys.
