IPC: A47B3/00
Filed: 2008-09-04
Abstract: A storage rack for round tables having foldable legs, that maintains each table in a vertical position, includes a base fabricated from first and second parallel pairs of tubing sections which are welded together to form a rectangular arrangement. The rim of a round table positioned vertically on the base makes contact with both tubing sections of the first pair, which are spaced apart a distance calculated to maintain the lowermost point of the rim above the level of the floor on which the base rests. A horizontally disposed bar having a welded notched plate welded thereto is supported at each end by a vertical support post, which is secured to one of the tubing sections of the second pair. The notched plate has a number of equally-spaced, downward-facing notches, each of which is sized to receive the rim of a single round table.

Abstract: In a method for accuracy estimation of network based corrections for a satellite-aided positioning system, with a network of reference stations code and phase measurements are recorded by the reference stations and transferred to a network processing centre.  The measurements are converted to observables and single-differences between a master station and at least one auxiliary station selected for each reference station are calculated.  Estimates of single-difference between each reference station and the corresponding master station are generated and slant residuals for each reference station and satellite are calculated by using the difference between calculated single-differences and estimates. Subsequently double-differences are formed by differencing between the slant residuals for each satellite s and the slant residuals of a reference satellite k, leading to zenith residuals calculated by mapping the double-differences to a zenith value. Error values for each reference station are computed by using the zenith residuals and residual dispersive and non-dispersive error values for a potential rover position are estimated by combining residual dispersive and non-dispersive error values of all reference stations. The accuracy of network based corrections is represented graphically by generating a map as a grid of potential rover positions with estimated residual dispersive and non-dispersive error values.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for filling and evacuating a dispenser unit for pasty, foamy, or liquid media. In the known methods, a supply container (1) is evacuated via a suction pump (3), which is otherwise used to discharge the medium, after the filling. The danger exists in this way that medium will be sucked in. In order to make the suction process more effective and reliable, a method and a filling insert for a dispenser unit are proposed according to the invention, at least one air channel (2) being provided parallel to the suction pump (3). By applying a pressure differential between supply container (1) and surroundings, which is just high enough that air can be sucked through the air channel (2) but particularly no viscous medium, the evacuation is performed.
