Title: Coffee-making process and corresponding coffee-making machine
Inventor: SCHAMBERG STEFAN
IPC: A47J31/057
Filed: 1995-10-20
Abstract: A coffee maker and a method of preparing coffee in which steam is applied to the coffee grinds prior to passing hot water through the coffee grinds. The coffee maker includes a controllable outlet valve disposed within a fluid path, between a water reservoir and a flow-through heater. In a first position, the outlet valve has a flow opening dimensioned sufficiently small that water exiting the outlet valve evaporates completely in the flow-through heater. In a second position, the outlet valve has a flow opening dimensioned sufficiently large that water exiting the outlet valve is heated in the flow-through heater without appreciable development of steam.

Date Jun. 27, 1996A piezoelectrically actuated driving and adjusting apparatus transmits both pure translation movements and rotation movements. The object of the present invention is to provide a piezoelectrically actuated driving and adjusting apparatus having a simple, compact and robust mechanical structure, capable of ensuring long adjustment paths and suitable for various adjustment and drive tasks using the same principle structure. Two parallel stacks of piezoelectric elements are arranged as close as possible to each other. The piezoelectric stacks are supported at first front surfaces on a crossbar by a tiltable coupling. Second front surfaces of the piezoelectric stacks, opposite to the first front surfaces, lie flat on a stiff common member that rigidly interconnects both the piezoelectric stacks. A biasing apparatus is provided to apply a symmetrical, predefinable force on the piezoelectric stacks by acting on the crossbar and the common member. Hinge devices allow opposite groups of components to be deflected, tilted and/or lifted in relation to each other when temporally offset and variable electric voltages are applied to the piezoelectric stacks.

Abstract: A two-step process for making polyetherester resins is disclosed. A low molecular weight polyol reacts with an aromatic dicarboxylic acid in step one to produce a polyester intermediate. In step two, the polyester intermediate reacts with an anhydride or an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid in the presence of an insertion catalyst to produce a polyetherester resin that contains greater than about 10 wt.% of recurring units derived from the aromatic dicarboxylic acid. The polyetheresters are useful for making thermoset resins with excellent mechanical properties and chemical resistance.

Score lines S4,S6 and S14,S16 provide lines of weakness across the whole widths of the roots of the central lugs, so that the lugs, when each folded upon itself, can adjust to the orientation of an outwardly folded panel P13 during tucking of the panel P13 inwards of the lugs, which are sandwiched between the panels P6 and P13. In the blank, the lugs and the panels P6 and P13 are so dimensioned that they can interdigitate with the corresponding lugs and panels of the bottoms of a row of identical blanks. Edge portions E11 and E17 of protrusions of the panel P12 commence adjacent to and parallelly with the vertical edges of the panel P12 and continue convexly curvedly towards the panel P13, to co-operate with the folds between the panel P6, on the one hand, and the sub-panels P9 and P14, on the other hand, to enhance production and maintenance of self-alignment of the closure. <IMAGE>
