Abstract: A ceiling embedded air conditioner in which motor cooling efficiency is improved, enabling prevention of motor failure to achieve high reliability, and which generates low noise. A motor side airflow path (3f) is formed on the motor side of a downwardly projecting hub (3c), between the hub (3c) and a motor (4), the hub (3c) covering the motor (4) and having fixed on it a rotating shaft (4a) of the motor (4). An airflow guiding cover (18) is provided to guide air that flows into the motor side airflow path (3f) from an interspace formed between a housing top plate (1b) and a main plate (3b). The airflow guiding cover (18) has a peripheral surface section (18c) extended downward from the main plate (3b) side, and is constructed such that a lower end opening (18b) of the peripheral surface section (18c) is positioned below a lower end surface (4b) of the motor (4). The hub (3c) has openings (3d) for allowing air to flow out into an in-fan airflow path (3e), the air being air that flows from the interspace into the motor side airflow path (3f) and then flows into an interspace between the airflow guiding cover (18) and the hub (3c) after flowing out from the lower end opening (18b) in the airflow guiding cover (18).

Abstract: The present invention relates to food ingredients, or entire food products, that contain fats or oils, and, dispersed with the fat or oil, flavor capsules. The flavor capsules include a micro-organism, a surrounding matrix component and at least one flavor, which is mainly present within the micro-organism. The food or food ingredients may be used as such, or as coatings or fillings for conventional food products. The fat or oil based food ingredient of the invention has increased flavor intensity if compared to similar food ingredients in which the flavor is not encapsulated. The flavors are immediately released upon consumption of the food or food ingredient. Owing to the particular encapsulation of flavors, the food ingredient is largely resistant to flavor evaporation due to elevated temperatures during food manufacturing processes.

Abstract: A collet and lock nut assembly (10) includes a collet (12) for receiving a cutting tool shank (16) and a lock nut (14) for creating a gripping force between the collet (12) and the shank (16). The collet (12) has a nose portion (24) and a body portion (26) separated by an annular groove (28). The lock nut (14) has a concentric bore (48) with a plurality of retention tabs (72) and a corresponding number of clear portions (74). The collet and lock nut assembly (10) can be easily assembled by inserting at least one retention tab (72) within the groove (28) of the collet (12), and then applying pressure to the collet (12) such that the remaining retention tabs (72) of the lock nut (14) are received within the groove (28) of the collet (12) to place the assembly (10) in a locked position. The collet (12) and cutting tool shank (16) can be drawn from the tool holder (18) by applying rotational torque to the lock nut (14). The collet (12) is easily removed from the lock nut (14) by applying pressure in any circumferential, lateral direction against the collet (12).

Abstract: A fastener placing tool (11) for placing fasteners of the breakstem blind rivet type incorporates a force/stroke monitoring device (22) which comprises an assembly body (24) detachably mounted on the tool between the latter and the anvil (18), a load-cell sensor (33) carried by the assembly body (24) for sensing the force applied by the hydraulic piston (16) to the jaw assembly 17 with respect to the anvil (18), and a non-contact stroke-sensor (35) carried by the assembly body (24) for sensing the position of the jaw assembly (17) relative to the anvil (18). The stroke-sensor (35) operates without physical contact with the jaw assembly (17) or any part of the tool moving therewith. To this end the jaw assembly (17) is connected to the hydraulic piston (16) by means of an adaptor tube (23) which has a conical tapering outer surface. The clearance distance between the sensor (35) and the adjacent part of the conical surface of the adaptor tube 23 varies with the axial position of the adaptor (23) and jaw assembly (17).

Abstract: A motion tracking system for tracking an object composed of object parts in a three-dimensional space. The system comprises a number of magnetic field transmitters; a number of field receivers for receiving the magnetic fields of the field transmitters; a number of inertial measurement units for recording a linear acceleration; a number of angular velocity transducers for recording angular velocities. The system further comprises a processor for controlling the transmitters and receiving signals coming from the field receivers and the inertial measurement unit; which processor contains a module for deriving orientation and/or position information of the constituent object parts of the object on the basis of the received signals. The processor is configured for intermittently controlling the transmitters transmit at a predetermined frequency, wherein the position and/or orientation information is derived by periodically calibrating the motion information coming from the inertial measurement unit with the motion information coming from the magnetic field receivers.

Abstract: This application describes a garment (e.g. a swim suit) having a base layer of stretchable elasticated fabric, the base layer having a torso portion that covers at least a part of the torso of a person when the garment is worn. An inner core layer of stretchable elasticated fabric is bonded to the inner surface of the base layer to extend around the abdomen and lower back regions of the garment. By providing a double layer of stretchable elasticated fabric in this manner, more compression is applied to the abdomen of the person (e.g. swimmer) wearing the suit, bringing about improvements in form drag. The additional support provided to the lower back and abdomen also improves core stability, which is of benefit in many sporting activities, including swimming.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of an 1,1-disubstituted oxirane is disclosed, wherein an organic sulphide is reacted in a polar solvent with an educt containing a leaving group attached to a primary or secondary carbon atom, and/or the sulfonium salt formed in this way is reacted with a ketone in presence of a base and a polar solvent. Oxiranes of the type obtained may be further converted into the corresponding ±-hydroxyketone or ±-aminoketone, either in one step by subjecting to aerobic oxidation in the presence of a transition metal catalyst, or in two steps by hydrolyzation in the presence of an aqueous acid to the corresponding dialcohol and subsequent selective oxidation. Further described are some novel epoxide intermediates.  The ±-hydroxyketones and ±-aminoketones thus obtainable are useful inter alia as photoinitiators.
