Title: Method and arrangement for continuous sterilization of a liquid milk based product
Inventor: ARPH OLLE
IPC: A23L3/24
Filed: 1994-03-25
Abstract: A method of sterilizing a liquid milk based product comprises indirect preheating of the product and final heating to a sterilization temperature 140-150 DEG C by direct steam injection. The product is cooled by so called flash-cooling at which steam corresponding to the added amount of steam is evaporated and the product is further cooled by indirect cooling. It is now proposed that the product prior to the flash-cooling is cooled from the sterilization temperature of 140-150 DEG C to a temperature in the range 90-120 DEG C in an indirect, first cooling step after which the product is cooled by flash-cooling to a temperature of 70-85 DEG C. The arrangement for sterilization comprises a balance vessel (1) connected to an indirectly working first heat exchanger (4) for heating of the milk based product. A steam injection nozzle (6) is arranged in a pipeline leading from the heat exchanger (4). After the steam injection nozzle (6) there is a holding section (8) and a vacuum vessel (10) in which the product is cooled by flash-cooling. A further indirectly working heat exchanger (9) for cooling of the product is connected between the holding section (8) and the vacuum vessel (10).

Patent AU-6511099-A (AU)
Title: Methods and apparatus for displaying images such as text
Inventor: HILL WILLIAM
IPC: H04N1/387
Filed: 1999-10-07
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for utilizing pixel sub-components which form a pixel element of an LCD display, e.g., as separate luminous intensity elements, are described. Each pixel of a color LCD display is comprised of three non-overlapping red, green and blue rectangular pixel sub-elements or sub-components. The invention takes advantage of the ability to control individual RGB pixel sub-elements to effectively increase a screen's resolution in the dimension perpendicular to the dimension in which the screen is striped, e.g., the RGB pixel sub-elements are arranged lengthwise. In order to utilize the effective resolution which can be obtained by treating RGB pixel sub-components separately, scaling or super sampling of digital representations of fonts is performed in one dimension at a rate that is greater than the scaling or sampling performed in the other dimension. In some embodiments where weighting is used in determining RGB pixel values, e.g., during scan conversion, the super sampling is a function of the weighting. During a scan conversion operation, RGB pixel sub-component values are independently determined from different portions of a scaled image. The scan conversion process may involve use of different weights for each color component. Processing to compensate for color distortions, e.g., color fringing, introduced by treating each pixel sub-component as an independent element is described. For horizontally flowing text applications, screens with vertical as opposed to horizontal striping are preferred.

Title: Axial door operator
Inventor: KOWALCZYK THOMAS M
IPC: E05F15/10
Filed: 2000-08-10
Abstract: The present application discloses an axial operator that is configured for use with a door assembly. The axial operator comprises a rotatable operator output member that rotates about an operator axis, the operator output member being constructed and arranged to be operatively connected within the door assembly such that the operator output axis extends generally vertically. An electric motor has a rotatable motor output member that rotates about the operator axis. The motor is constructed and arranged to selectively rotate the motor output member about the operator axis. A reduction transmission is connected between the motor output member and the operator output member. The reduction transmission is constructed and arranged such that the transmission rotates the operator output member at a lower rotational speed than a rotational speed at which the motor rotates the motor output member and applies a higher torque to the operator output member than a torque which the motor applies to the motor output member. The reduction transmission comprises (a) an orbit gear, (b) a planet gear carrier, and (c) a planet gear. The motor is adapted to be communicated to a controller so as to receive a door moving signal therefrom and being further adapted to selectively rotate the motor output member in response to receiving the door moving signal to thereby rotate the operator output member so as to move the door panel with respect to the doorway as aforesaid.

Title: An apparatus and method for determining a program neighbourhood for a client node in a client-server network
Inventor: DUURSMA MARTIN
IPC: G06F21/12
Filed: 1999-12-30
Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining a program neighborhood of a client node in a client-server network is described. The program neighborhood of the client node includes application programs hosted by application servers on the network. The present invention enables a user of a client node to learn of these application programs. The user is not required to know where to find such applications or to manually establish links to such applications. To make the client node aware of its program neighborhood, a host server collects application-related information corresponding to application programs hosted by the servers in the network. The application-related information can include the application name, the server location of the application, minimum capabilities required of client nodes for executing the application, and those users who are authorized to use that application. User credentials are received from the client system. The user credentials are used to filter the application-related information. Information representing those application programs that are available to the client node is transmitted from the host server to the client system for display. In a Windows-based client node, the information can be represented by a graphical icon for each available application program.

Title: Arc diverter
Inventor: ANDERSON GLEN L
IPC: C23C14/34
Filed: 1991-03-21
Abstract: An arc diverter detects an arc between the cathode and the anode of a glow discharge apparatus and in response to arc detection, actuates a switching network that triggers a pair of switches to allow a capacitor to discharge toward the cathode along a resonant diverting path and recharge the capacitor for subsequent discharge in an opposite direction. This discharge current effectively short circuits the power supply and extinguishes the arc. The resonant diverting circuit includes two resonant diverting paths and four switches configured in an "H" to hold the capacitor in a charged condition. Alternate triggering of the diagonally situated pairs of switches enables the charged capacitor to discharge in one direction along one of the resonant diverting paths and recharge for subsequent discharge in the opposite direction, along the other of the resonant paths. Both resonant diverting paths provide discharge toward the cathode.
