Abstract: An apparatus for rolling, in particular, croissant pieces, dough pieces, are provided, in which dough pieces are fed between a pair of rollers (5,7) and transferred to an endless belt device (9) via a transfer roller (13,15) of a small diameter and high speed rotation for peeling off the dough piece from the roller. Then the dough pieces are carried under a rollling up device (11) to be rolled into croissant rolls. The dough pieces are transferred to the endless belt maintaining at least one surface of it adhesive, and so the dough rolls produced are wound tightly due to the dough surfaces adhering to each other.

Abstract: The invention relates to a necklace fastener or a chain part for jewellery chains, in particular for tubular braiding, consisting of a divided hollow body and the hollow body parts being connected to one another with positive locking. The ends (8, 9) of the chain are each arranged on the body parts; in this case, they each form a separation joint (b, c) on the hollow body parts (1, 2). The hollow body parts (1, 2) can be rotated relative to one another. A separation joint (a) of the hollow body and the separation joints (b, c) lie in at least one position in three planes at an angle to one another, as a result of which - by means of corresponding rotation of the hollow body parts (1, 2) - the necklace can be made to be variable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The processability of a margarine or other edible spread fat blends and the properties of the resulting products are to a large extent determined by the crystallisation behaviour of the fat blend. Problems of delayed crystallisation are known in the art of margarine or other spread manufacture, in particular, it is common knowledge in margarine blend formulation that interesterification of fats quite often results in slower crystallising fat blends and often fat blends which are impractically or inconveniently slow to crystallise. We have now determined that the crystallisation of margarine fats from a supercooled melt can be accelerated by the use of a triglyceride having a trans fatty acid at the 2-position, preferably a 1,3-saturated-2-trans-unsaturated (FTF) tempering accelerator. These include, in particular the HTH TAGs where H is stearic or palmitic, and especially PEP.

Abstract: Vinyl C1 to C3 alkanoate/C2 to C4 alkylene copolymer emulsions eg vinyl acetate/ethylene, are usable as wet adhesives and pressure sensitive adhesives for a number of applications. Their bonding to the surfaces of lower polarity, eg polyethylene, is improved by including vinyl esters of C4 to C18 primary or secondary carboxylic acids as monomer. As the result presented in Table I indicate, a particularly preferred balance of properties, especially increased adhesion to hydrophobic substrates with little or no reduction in cohesive strength, is achieved by the use to the 2-ethyl hexanoate monomer, in accordance with a preferred embodiment of the invention.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for adding to a concrete mixer a desired quantity of fibre cut e.g. of plastic. The apparatus comprises a concrete mixer (5), a magazine (16) for storing a number of spools (15) with fibre string (12), and a cutter (9) for advancing during the dry mixing the fibre string and cutting it into predetermined lengths which are fed to the concrete mixture in an even and uniform flow. The apparatus also comprises at least one sensor (20) for sensing the feeding speed of the fibre string and giving off signal to a control unit (not shown) which again controls the feeding speed. By way of the invention it is possible to achieve a far more even and more uniform distribution of the plastic fibres in the finished concrete than known before, whereby the material improving properties of the plastic fibres are optimally exploited. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A logging plug (10) for suspension on a wireline (23) comprises a hollow body (12) provided with a seal (32) by which it may be sealed within a nipple profile (34) included in a tubing string. The body (12) allows the wireline (23) to be passed through it while maintaining a substantial seal. During running-in lower collet fingers (48) engage stop ring (66) mounted on the body (12). When the plug (10) becomes seated in the nipple profile by the weight of  a logging tool also suspended on the wireline (23), fingers (48) are disengaged by inward movement of external collet fingers (38) and rollers (60). Consequent downward movement of fingers (50) allows the rope socket (24) to push them outwardly and allows the logging tool to be lowered. An equalizing sleeve (75) can be pulled up by the socket head (24) from the sealing position to a raised position which allows pressure equalization above and below the plug (10) to facilitate withdrawal thereof. Profiles (70) and (71) on fingers (50) act to trap the socket head (24) should the wireline pull out or break.

Granted: 1996-10-02
Abstract: Dans un procédé pour la mesure de distance par rétroréflection, une onde d'émission est émise à une fréquence d'émission à modulation de fréquence périodique. L'onde réfléchie sur une cible présente une fréquence de réception modulée périodiquement en fréquence de la même manière. Une différence de fréquence (fréquence de distance) qui est fonction du temps de propagation existe entre la fréquence d'émission et la fréquence de réception et sert à mesurer la distance de la cible par rapport au site d'émission/réception (16). La fréquence d'émission et la fréquence de réception sont converties, au moyen d'une fréquence de référence constante dans un mélangeur commun (24), en un spectre de fréquences intermédiaires, d'émission-réception, renfermant une fréquence intermédiaire d'émission formée par conversion de la fréquence d'émission au moyen de la fréquence de référence, et une fréquence intermédiaire de réception formée par conversion de la fréquence de réception au moyen de la fréquence de référence. La fréquence de distance est déterminée à partir de la différence de fréquence entre la fréquence intermédiaire d'émission et la fréquence intermédiare de réception. La fréquence intermédiaire d'émission contenue dans le spectre de fréquences intermédiaires d'émission/réception est utilisée pour corriger la modulation de fréquence de la fréquence d'émission. A cet effet, le dispositif permettant la mise en ÷uvre du procédé comporte un élément de correction (46, 50, 52) monté en aval du mélangeur commun parallèlement à l'élément de mesure.

Abstract: A drug delivery device is described which utilizes gas pressure from free oxygen and hydrogen derived from the electrolysis of water at the electrodes in negatively charged polymeric hydrogels by electro-osmosis. The gas pressure forces the infusion of the drugs through appropriate means into the body. The rate of electrolysis which produces the oxygen and hydrogen is controlled by an electric current. Therefore the rate of drug delivery can be predetermined and precisely controlled. The current is activated and controlled by an electronic timer or a biomedical control system. The negatively charged hydrogel polymers have mechanical strength and rigidity and allow water to flow through the polymer network toward the cathode ensuring a continuous water supply to the electrodes inside the hydrogel system by electro-osmosis. The hydrogels may be recharged (reswollen) with water or simply replaced. Because the containment of water within the hydrogel structure is not position dependent, gravity plays no part in the gel location within the gas generation unit as in prior art units. Therefore, the contact between the electrodes and water for purposes of electrolysis is position independent.
