Patent JP-4444658-B2 (JP)
IPC: C11D1/62
Filed: 2003-01-10
Granted: 2010-03-31
Abstract: Fabric softener compositions comprising certain red colorants that exhibit excellent deep, dark red colorations (for aesthetic purposes) and mix very well with other colorants to provide differing red shades and tints therein, which simultaneously exhibit very low, if any staining capabilities on fabrics treated therewith, are provided. Such deep and dark red colorations have heretofore been unavailable within fabric softener formulations due to the tendency of such prior colorants to exhibit unacceptable staining levels, particularly when formulated at similar deep and dark shades as now provided within the inventive low-staining formulations. Apparently, and quite unexpectedly, the colorants present therein react favorably with quaternary ammonium salt softening agents in a manner to prevent reaction with the fibers of the treated fabrics themselves, thereby preventing staining thereon and therein. Such novel red-colored or -tinted fabric softener formulations, as well as any other quaternary-ammonium salt-containing red-colored or -tinted compositions are encompassed within this invention.

Abstract: An improved multi-channel optical equalizer method and apparatus for intersymbol interference mitigation compensates for single- or multi- wavelength channels simultaneously and requires few adjustable parameters. The optical equalizer can also compensate for overshoots and signal transition degradations of a semiconductor optical amplifier. The equalizer unit has only two control signals, one to control signal magnitude and one to control signal phase, yet it can still compensate many wavelength channels simultaneously. The equalizer includes a coupler with a controllable coupling ratio for splitting the light into two portions and a controllable interferometer means having two arms, one arm having an additional delay which is equal to an integer multiple of 1/ DELTA f, where  DELTA f is the channel spacing between adjacent wavelengths utilized in the optical system. The controllable interferometer unit also has a controllable delay in a first or second arm for adjusting the relative phase of the light passing therethrough. A coupler combines the two signal portions from the first and second arms to form the equalized output signal. In a second embodiment, the equalizer includes two equalizer units connected in series to compensate for both leading and lagging intersymbol interference. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A high recovery sonic gas valve design with the inlet flow entering transverse and orthogonal to the outlet flow is presented. The configuration cancels the effects of the inlet flow entering orthogonal to the axis of the nozzle and diffuser. The inlet passage is curved in a manner to let the flow enter along the centerline of the nozzle and diffuser. The nozzle is contoured and provides upstream flow impedance. The diffuser is contoured with the area gradient varying from a low positive value at the nozzle throat then to a maximum value and finally dropping off significantly to near zero prior to the nozzle exit. The diffuser is nearly cylindrical and may extend past the valve outlet flange and protrude into adjacent piping. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is a bioreactor or fermenter formed of a container having two or more walled. One or more inlets (10A,10B) and one or more outlets (12) are formed in one or more of the walls of the container. At least one of the one (10A) or more inlets is formed in the bottom wall (8) of the container and used for the introduction of one or more gases. A gas distribution device (20) is formed within the body of the container adjacent the bottom gas inlet and a hydrophobic filter (16) is mounted to the bottom wall gas inlet, upstream of the gas inlet. The distribution device is formed such as by bonding the two facing wall surfaces of the container together at discrete and spaced apart locations to form a series of gas ports into the remainder of the container. The hydrophobic filter acts to purify the gas entering the container so as to prevent the introduction of contaminants such as microbes into the container. It also acts as a valve, preventing liquid in the bag from passing through its hydrophobic structure thus preventing any back flow when positive pressure from the gas supply is not being imposed upon the bag.

The tensio-active gaseous substance is chosen such that, when at least partially mixed with the immersion liquid, the mixture has a lower surface tension than the immersion liquid, thereby creating a surface tension gradient pulling the immersion liquid from the perimeter towards the contact area.
