Abstract: An insert having openings for the penetration of dish washing liquid, limited by ridges in-plane crossing at crossing points, ridges are embodied according to the invention at the crossing points in such a sloped manner, that they are provided with a rhomb shaped cross-section. Due to the rhomb shaped profile of the ridges embodied in a sloped manner a type of double pyramid is formed, by which the dish washing liquid can autonomously run off downwards over the sloped planes provided on all sides of the rhombus, particularly in the critical locations.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de sélection de matelas qui comprend un lit d'essai composé d'un sommier à ressorts (22) et d'un matelas pneumatique compartimenté (24), et qui génère des sorties électriques correspondant à la masse corporelle d'un sujet. Les données du capteur sont traitées automatiquement (12, 30, 40), conjointement avec les réponses au questionnaire, pour émettre une recommandation qui détermine lequel des matelas, parmi une sélection de systèmes de matelas disponibles, est le mieux adapté au sujet. Deux personnes peuvent également utiliser ce système simultanément pour obtenir une recommandation déterminant le lit le mieux adapté pour elles. Si l'une des deux personnes est absente, un questionnaire détaillé peut être rempli pour elle, les réponses à ces questions étant alors utilisées pour en déduire les informations qui seront utilisées à la place des données du lit d'essai. On peut également utiliser le questionnaire détaillé pour obtenir une recommandation sur la literie à distance, c.-à-d., par Internet.

Abstract: To reduce the number of simultaneously driven
printing elements so that the instantaneously flowing
current is restricted in a printing system for
completing an image by repeating the printing scan a
plurality of times in the same printing area while
applying random mask thereto. For this purpose, a
mask of a predetermined size is structured as a
thinning pattern in which data are arranged randomly,
the data being for determining whether or not the
respective ink ejection openings in a printing head
are to be driven when the printing head repeats the
scan a plurality of times in the same printing area of
a printing medium. When forming an image, the
printing elements concerned with the printing
operation in the same printing area are divided into a
plurality of sections, and the thinning patterns (MASK
A to MASK D) complementary to each other are applied
to the respective sections during the respective
printing scans (S101 to S104).

Abstract: Thermoplastic melt is injected into a tool cavity(5) until completely filled followed by a liquid which forces the melt against the cavity walls(7) and creates an internal chamber(1). After liquid injection and before cooling of the plastic component compressed gas is introduced into the internal chamber. <??>Injected liquid forces material from the tool cavity(5) into an overflow cavity(8) controlled by valves. Liquid is injected either along the melt flow path(4) and through the gate(11) or directly via an injection nozzle(10) into the cavity. In the latter case melt is forced out of the cavity back towards the injection machine(3). Pressure may be increased in the cavity before injection by introducing compressed gas. Liquid can be either a liquid with high heat capacity, water, oil or liquid gas and is cooled to a set temperature range before injection. Liquid pressure is controlled in two phases, the second being at a higher level than the first.

Abstract: The invention provides a process for preparing a platinum-ruthenium catalyst and the
catalyst prepared therewith. The catalyst can be supported on a support material in
powder form or may also be unsupported. To prepare the supported catalyst, the support
material is suspended in water and the suspension is heated to at most the boiling point.
While keeping the temperature of the suspension the same, solutions of
hexachloroplatinic acid and ruthenium chloride are then added to the suspension, then
the pH of the suspension is increased to a value between 6.5 and 10 by adding an
alkaline solution and the noble metals are thus precipitated onto the support material.
Afterwards, one or more organic carboxylic acids and/or their salts are added to the
suspension and the catalyst is chemically reduced, washed, dried and optionally
subsequently calcined under an inert or reducing atmosphere at a temperature between
300 und 1000 °C. The catalyst is characterised by a high tolerance to carbon monoxide
poisoning in the fuel cell.
