Patent EP-0966666-B1 (EP)
Inventor: GARVER THEODORE M JR

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of ratios, products and non-linear functions of adsorption, emission or scattering of light as variables in standard regression and chemometric techniques to predict a characteristic or property of a solid or liquid. The use of one or more non-linear functions within a relationship between measured spectral properties and characteristic properties of solutions and solids provides an improved means to determine a property when the intensities represent or relate to components that are colinear or interelated due to restraints associated with composition, chemical processes, or molecular structure. The invention relates to the use of ratios of Raman peak intensities to predict the properties of a solution or a solid such as pulp that is processed with the solution. The intensity of the Raman shifted light is used to create Raman peak intensity ratios. These Raman intensities are related to the concentration of species dissolved in the liquid. The Raman spectra are baseline corrected and the scattering from a water reference is subtracted before extraction of intensities for Raman peak intensity ratios. The Raman scattering intensities provide a good measure of the concentration of small, oxygenated molecules. The potential of an oxidative reductive process is conveniently determined using Raman peak intensity ratios. Relevant small molecules and complex ions in the pulp and paper industry include SO4<2->, SO3<2->, H2O2, ClO2, HClO3, silicates, acetic acid, HClO3, Chlorate ClO3<->; Chlorous Acid HClO2, Chlorite ClO2<->, Hypochlorous Acid HClO. Hypochlorite ClO<->, phosphate, nitrate, nitrites. The method may also be used to determine a property related to the relative size, degree of polymerization, branching or network formation, of complexing or polymerized species. The method may also be used to measure large molecules such as hemicellulose, extractives and pectic substances.

Abstract: A carding machine or other web production device [(1)] supplies a crosslapper [(2)] with two elementary webs [(15a, 15b)] constituting a lappable web [(16)] which is deposited in a reciprocating manner on a transverse output belt [(26)].In the device [(1) means of] adjustment of the speed of rotation of doffers [(13a, 13b)], of condensers [(17, 18)], of detachers [(19a, 19b)], of the drum [(4)] and/or of the feeder [(7)], and/or [means of] adjustment of the drum-doffer spacing affect the weight per unit area of the elementary web produced taking account of the weight per unit area desired at each point in the width of the fleece [(67)] to be formed on the output belt [(26)]. There is determined the delay length exhibited by each elementary web cross-section undergoing the adjustment of weight with respect to the section of lappable web in the process of being deposited. From this there is derived the position at which each web cross-section will be deposited when it is undergoing the adjustment of thickness and consequently the weight adjustment to be applied to it.[Utilization] The present invention is useful for producing fleeces of highly varied profiles with great industrial flexibility.

Abstract: An absorbent interlabial device that is worn interlabially by female wearers for catemenial purposes, incontinence protection, or both, is disclosed. The absorbent interlabial device of the present invention is characterized by improved wearing comfort and increased capacity as compared to known interlabial devices. The absorbent interlabial device of the present invention includes at least an central absorbent portion (or core) surrounded by a liquid pervious topsheet. The topsheet is folded laterally inward over the central absorbent portion and downdward to form a central groove on the top surface of the interlabial device. The central groove faces toward the vestibule of the wearer upon insertion into the interlabial space. The central groove improves the comfort associated with the wearing of the interlabial device, and allows the device to more rapidly acquire fluids, particularly viscous fluids. Additional features of the device may include a pair of flexible extensions, a secondary topsheet for improve acquisition rate, and tapered sealed ends for improved wearing comfort.

Abstract: A bidirectional steerable catheter comprises a catheter body (12), a tip section (14), and a control handle (16). The catheter body has a tubular wall, proximal and distal ends, and at least one lumen (18) extending therethrough. The tip section comprises flexible tubing having proximal and distal ends and at least one lumen extending therethrough. The proximal end of the tip section is fixedly attached to the distal end of the catheter body. The control handle (16) is mounted at its distal end to the proximal end of the catheter body. The control handle comprises a housing having proximal and distal ends. Rotatably mounted within the housing is a generally-circular spur gear having gear teeth about its outer circumference. A pair of spaced apart rack gears (106) are slidably mounted longitudinally on diametrically opposed sides of the spur gear within the housing. Each rack gear has an interior edge generally facing the interior edge of the other rack gear and comprises gear teeth (112) along its interior edge for engaging the gear teeth of the spur gear. Each rack gear is longitudinally movable between first and second positions. Proximal movement of one rack gear results in rotational movement of the spur gear, and correspondingly distal movement of the other rack gear. Two puller wires (42) extend from the control handle, through a lumen in the catheter body and into an off axis lumen in the tip section. The distal end of each puller wire is fixedly attached to the tip section, and the proximal end of each puller wire is anchored to a separate associated rack gear (106) in the control handle. Proximal movement of a rack gear and its associated puller wire relative to the catheter body results in deflection of the tip section in the direction of the off axis lumen into which that puller wire extends.

Abstract: The device has an insert (6) with a first end side (10) fastened at an angle to the longitudinal side of a profiled component (3), and a second end side (11) coupled to an impact surface (9) on the component. The impact surface projects from the end face (14) of the component by an amount (a), so that a force impacting on the surface displaces a collision component (12) in direction of the force. This causes a turning movement of the insert about a point within the profiled component, and local bending of the component at the point by a an angle value.
