Abstract: Absorbent article, such as a sanitary towel, with a stiffening element (6) which is intended to contribute to the three-dimensional shape of the article during its use. The stiffening area (6) is in a plane state before use of the article and comprises a first stiffening part area (61) in the front portion (1). The first stiffening part area (61) in the front portion (1) has a width which, at least at some point in the longitudinal direction of the article, exceeds the distance between the muscle tendons of the wearer on both sides of the crotch of the wearer in the groin of the latter. The article comprises an elongate absorbent crotch area (63) which is intended to be fitted in the crotch of the wearer over the genitals of the latter and is designed for an optimum absorption function by free selection of absorption material and construction. The absorbent crotch area (63) is attached to the first part area (61) and held in place by the latter so as to avoid the absorbent crotch area sliding backwards and out of the intended position over the genitals of the wearer when the wearer moves.

Title: Device for the optoelectronic detection of switching positions of a switching element
Inventor: BOEHNE GREGOR
IPC: G01B11/00
Filed: 2002-08-24
Abstract: An optoelectronic switch position detection apparatus for detecting the switch positions of a switch element movable in switch position steps in a switch direction with each switch position step corresponding to a switch position includes receivers, a light, and a shutter. The receivers are arranged at a distance correspondingly from each other of a switch position step in the switch direction of the switch element. The shutter is coupled to the movement of the switch element to move relative to the receivers and the light as the switch element moves in the switch direction between switch positions. The state of one of the receivers changes between an exposed state in which the receiver is exposed to the light and a shaded state in which the shutter shades the receiver from the light when the switch element moves in the switch direction from one switch position to an adjacent switch position.

Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a reciprocating power tool (101;201) having a
further improved power transmission mechanism (131;231) for converting a rotating output of a driving
motor (121;221) into linear motion in the axial direction of the tool bit (113;213). According to the present invention, a
representative reciprocating power tool may comprise a tool bit, a driving motor, a power
transmission mechanism. The power transmission mechanism converts a rotating output of the
driving motor into linear motion in the axial direction of the tool bit. The power transmission
mechanism includes an internal gear (153;269), a planetary gear (151;271) and a power transmission pin (155;273). The internal
gear is allowed to rotate by a predetermined degree in relation to a load applied to the tool bit. As
the result of rotation of the internal gear, the relative position of the power transmission pin is
changed with respect to the point of engagement between the internal gear and the planetary gear.
Thus, a linear stroke of the power transmission pin in the axial direction of the tool bit is changed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of secure transmission of digital data relating to a document
between any of a scanner, a printer and a host computer such as a user workstation.
At a sending station, a document file is generated or otherwise specified and a user-defined
character string is inputted by an operator in the local user interface. Then, the
sending station automatically forms an encryption key based on said user-defined
character string and encrypts document file therewith. A transmission file, including the
encrypted document file, is then transmitted towards a receiving station, where the
encrypted document file is decrypted on the basis of the same user-defined character
string as was entered at the sending station, when the latter is entered in the local user
interface of the receiving station. No check is done on the validity of the entered
character string other than trying to process the decrypted file, but when an incorrect
character string is entered, the output of the decryption is useless.
