Abstract: Rotary permanent magnet motors have salient stator poles with nonuniform pole thickness in the radial direction for compensating effects of cogging torque. Pole base portions terminate at pole shoes at the radial air gap. The pole shoes extend in the circumferential direction from the bulkier base portions. Variation of the thickness of the pole shoe changes the concentration of the effective flux at the point of coupling between the stator poles and the permanent magnet pole shoes. As there is no change in the active interfacing area of the pole shoes a uniform air gap is maintained. The torque signature for each stator pole/rotor permanent magnet interface can be selectively changed to smooth motor operation by configuring the stator pole shoe thickness to vary along its circumferential extent as appropriate. Pole shoes may have tapered leading or trailing edges with respect to a pole base to change the effective flux density in the air gap at a specific pitch of rotation. Additionally, the pole shoe may be shifted off center with respect to the pole base.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for producing a substantially stable dispersion without manufacturing aids, where the dispersion consists essentially of a hydrophobic plant sterol and an aqueous material, wherein the plant sterol is selected from plant sterols and plant stanols. The process comprises mixing the plant sterol with the aqueous material to form a first dispersion. The next steps involve heating the first dispersion to form a heated mixture, followed by homogenizing the heated mixture to obtain a second dispersion of particles wherein the particle size of the hydrophobic plant sterol particles in the first dispersion and the second dispersion is from about 0.1 micron to about 30 microns. In one embodiment, the aqueous material consists essentially of a beverage concentrate, which includes a juice concentrate, such as a citrus juice concentrate, e.g., an orange juice concentrate. The invention also relates to a product produced by this process and a composition of matter which is a substantially stable dispersion of a hydrophobic plant sterol and an aqueous material wherein the plant sterol is selected from plant sterols and plant stanols, where in order to substantially avoid a powdery taste in the dispersion, the particle size of the plant sterol particles is from about 0.1 micron to about 30 microns and the majority of hydrophobic plant sterol particles within this range will be from about 0.2 microns to about 10 microns and will substantially follow a bell curve distribution. This composition may be made by the process of the invention, or may further include manufacturing aids selected from food grade emulsifiers, gums, starches and pectins.

Abstract: Calibration tools spaced around the tube periphery comprise rails(12) extending in the axial direction of the tube. The rails are radially adjustable on spindles(14) and each contacts the tube via a sliding surface(15). Inside each calibrating rail are channels(16,17) connecting with outlets(18) extending along the length of the rails. The channel(16) connects with a water supply(19) and the channel(17) with a vacuum source, in particular that applied to the vacuum calibration bath. Calibration rails(12) are in a pressure tight annular chamber in which a vacuum or overpressure is applied. Vacuum in the annular chamber is lower than in the channel(17) and the latter channel has a pressure control bore(20). Both channels are connected to each other via additional channels(25). Bores connect the water channel(16) with the calibration rail sidewalls at a point above the sliding surface(15). The calibration basket rotates around the tube in the calibration station(3). Outlets(18) in each rail comprise either a continuous slit or a row of bores. An independent claim is included for a process for calibrating a plastic tube using a calibration station whose rotating calibration basket has calibration rails along the tube length and calibration is performed in the presence of water and vacuum.

Abstract: Data is transmitted from a sending processor over a network to one or more receiving processor in a forward direction during an allocated slot, and acknowledge signals are sent in a reverse direction during the same allocated slot, to indicate whether the receiving processor is able to receive data If one or more of the receiving processors indicates that it is unable to receive the data, the data is retransmitted during the next allocated slot. This means that the sending processor is able to determine within the slot period whether a retransmission is necessary, but that the slot period only needs to be long enough for one-way communication.
