Title: Method and apparatus for making a medium-filled packing
Inventor: PAPE HENRIK
IPC: B65B9/08
Filed: 2008-01-24
Abstract: There is disclosed a method and an apparatus for making a medium-filled packing of two superposed heat-sealable elongated webs of plastic film (3) which are thermally sealed in longitudinal and transverse directions of the film webs for forming packings (11), and where the formed packings are filled by medium and closed. The film webs (3) are passed between a pair of rollers (6) which are pressed against each other, retaining the film webs therebetween. Thermal sealing across part of the width of the film webs is performed so that unbroken longitudinal areas (9) without any thermal sealing appear in the longitudinal direction of the film webs (3). The medium is filled into the packing before closing it for the formation of the medium-filled packing.

Abstract: An interface module between a communication module and a number of instances of business logic modules of a software engine comprises first and second functional elements. The first functional element receives incoming data from the communications module and selects which of the instances of business logic modules to forward the incoming data. The selection of an instance of the business logic module is based upon a ruie set held within a data structure at the first functional element. The incoming data passes to the selected logic module instance via the second functional element. The second functional element determines a mode of operation of the selected logic module instance. The mode of operation corresponds to either a single shot or a multiple shot mode of operation. If a multiple shot mode of operation is selected incoming data passes to the selected logic module instance sequentially. Alternatively, if a single shot mode of operation is selected a summary data record corresponding summary of incoming data received at the first function element passes to the selected logic module instance.

Abstract: A thrower wheel of a mechanical stoker is disclosed having multiple blades (7), which are disposed on a base plate (2), and a corresponding mechanical stoker. The thrower wheel is characterized in that the height of the blades (7) increases in the radial direction in at least one area and optionally remains the same in one or more remaining areas, and the height of the blade is less at the inner end of the blade than at the outer end of the blade. As a result thereof - in comparison to the prior art (4) - the wear load of the inner blade upper edge is distributed onto a larger area, so that the wear of the blade upper edge is thus decreased. Because better kinetic energy transfer from the thrower wheel to the fuel also occurs by the reduction of the impacts, the rotational speed of the thrower wheel can be reduced.
