Title: Method for treating a product and leak-detection installation
Inventor: HURME EERO
IPC: G01M3/22
Filed: 1997-04-15
Abstract: A method for detecting a leak in a resilient, semi-hard and hard package includes a test gas supplied to the package to subject the contents of the package to a first pressure. The package is then maintained for a predetermined time in a chamber having a gas pressure, and the presence of gas is detected in a measuring space in gas flow relationship with the chamber by a detection apparatus. In order for the method to be rapid enough to be suitable for detecting very small holes in packages and for use in production plants without a change in their operating rate, a hydrogen gas having a hydrogen gas concentration from 0.0001-6% by volume is used as the test gas supplied to the package, and the hydrogen gas concentration of the gas within the chamber is maintained below a reference concentration that is lower than the hydrogen gas concentration in the package immediately after the addition of hydrogen gas to the package. If hydrogen gas that has leaked outside the package into the chamber is detected and the package is considered defective, if the detected hydrogen gas content is higher by a predetermined value than the reference concentration after the predetermined time. The method also improves the shelf life of the quality of a product in the form of a foodstuff.

Date Apr. 18, 1996A dielectric resonator including a dielectric resonator body and a frequency controller for adjusting the resonance frequency by moving a conductive metal plane in the vicinity of the dielectric resonator body. The frequency controller has a cylindrical supporting block connected to a casing, and a second cylindrical supporting block gliding telescopically inside it by means of friction surfaces. To this second cylindrical supporting block, a ring-shaped conductive adjustment plane is connected. A second conductive adjustment plane, in turn, is connected to the adjustment mechanism and arranged in a center hole of the ring-shaped adjustment plane and attached to the second supporting block in a manner which transfers the movement of the adjustment mechanism so that it first moves the second adjustment plane for a predetermined adjustment range, and thereafter both adjustment planes together. Thus, the frequency controller has two slopes of adjustment, whereby the adjustment is fast, owing to the movement of both adjustment planes, and also extremely accurate, owing to the fine adjustment function, which is achieved when the smaller adjustment plane is moved alone.
