Title: An article of furniture with a door slidable into door compartment
Inventor: HAAB KARL
IPC: E06B3/50
Filed: 1990-03-07
Granted: 1992-07-16
Abstract: A door (1), which can be recessed into a door compartment (2), is fixed on a stop strip (4) which is guided on an upper rail (7a), fastened on a first side wall (6) of the door compartment (2), and on a lower rail (7b), and is fastened on a scissors cross anchored on the said first side wall (6) of the door compartment (2). To make possible a precise mounting of the door hanging before installation and to facilitate an adjustable design, the lower rail (7b) is also fastened on the first side wall (6). The two rails (7a,b) are screwed together with the sleeves, which are screwed in said wall and permit an adjustment of the rail spacing therefrom. The upper anchoring of the scissors cross lies on a fastening part (8), which is connected through the first side wall (6) to an adjustment part in such a way that when the latter is swivelled about a screw connection (9), common to both parts, said fastening part is also taken along. The stop strip (4) bears a roller (16) which, when the door (1) is not in a recessed position, presses against a plastic panel in the region of the front edge of said side wall. A setscrew (24) permits vertical displacement of the stop strip (4) relative to the scissors cross. <IMAGE>

Title: Electrochemical power generating system
Inventor: STONE GORDON R
IPC: H01M50/77
Filed: 1993-09-27
Granted: 1997-02-06
Abstract: An electrochemical power generating system has a base unit and a replaceable fuel unit. The base unit comprises controller for controlling operation of the pump. The fuel unit comprises a second housing releasably connectable to the first housing and a row of metal-air cells in the second housing electrically inter-connected together. Each cell includes a casing, a metal anode within the casing, an air cathode, a spacer between the cathode and anode for preventing the anode from contacting the cathode, an electrolyte intake port and an electrolyte discharge port in the casing for passage of electrolyte through the casing and between the anode and cathode. The fuel unit further comprises a manifold, an electrolyte reservoir, and a fluid line. The manifold has an intake port and a plurality of discharge ports in fluid communication with the electrolyte intake ports of the cells so that electrolyte flowing through the manifold is directed through the intake ports of the cells. The electrolyte reservoir and intake port of the manifold are operatively connectable with the electrolyte pump for fluid communication therewith so that the pump is able to pump electrolyte from the reservoir to the manifold. The fluid line operatively connects the discharge ports of the cells with the reservoir so that electrolyte discharged from the cells flows to the reservoir. The replaceable fuel unit is releasably attachable to the base unit so that the fuel unit can be quickly attached to and detached from the base unit.

Title: Nondigestible fat compositions containing diversely esterified polyol polyesters for passive oil loss control
Inventor: CORRIGAN PATRICK JOSEPH
IPC: A23L19/18
Filed: 1993-10-21
Granted: 1997-09-11
Abstract: Nondigestible fat compositions useful as a replacement for triglyceride fats or oils in foods are disclosed. These compositions have relatively flat Solid Fat Content (SFC) profile slopes between typical room and body temperatures. The nondigestible fat compositions comprise a liquid nondigestible oil and nondigestible particles of solid polyol polyester material dispersed in the oil in an amount sufficient to control passive oil loss. The ester groups of the solid polyol polyester material comprise (i) at least about 15% ester groups formed from C20-C26 long chain saturated fatty acid radicals, and (ii) ester groups formed from fatty or other organic acid radicals which are dissimilar said long chain saturated fatty acid radicals. The molar ratio of said dissimilar acid radicals to said long chain saturated fatty acid radicals ranges from about 0.1:7.9 to about 3:5. Moreover, the dissimilar acid radicals cannot consist solely of C2-C12 short chain saturated fatty acid radicals, C20 or higher long chain unsaturated fatty acid radicals, or a combination of said short chain saturated and said long chain unsaturated fatty acid radicals. Edible fat-containing products containing these nondigestible fat compositions can be less waxy tasting due to the lower level of solids required for passive oil loss control.

In a particularly preferred embodiment, the container is opened by pulling the opening means such that the tear-out section separates from the outer stiff layer along with the substantially coinciding portions of the intermediate layer and the inner layer that are attached thereto, thereby defining a dispensing aperture in the container's top end panel. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the container is provided with easy-open/reclosing means such as a rigid, plug-type member that is used to open and reclose the container. A high-speed manufacturing method for making the present invention is also disclosed.

Urethane derivatives prepared according to the invention are usually readily to very readily soluble in standard nonaqueous, nonpolar inert organic solvents or in various monomers capable of copolymerization. They can be polymerized or copolymerized in a free-radical way and used to prepare polymers or copolymers.

Title: Regenerator for oxidation and cleaning of a liquid
Inventor: LARSEN BJARNE RUDOLF EBBESKOV
IPC: C02F1/32
Filed: 1994-09-08
Granted: 1999-01-28
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for the oxidation and cleaning of aqueous environments ranging from lakes and streams to swimming pools. The invention also concerns a device for the practice of the method as well as the use of the device. The invention consists of a reaction vat (1) for submergence in liquid (100). In the reaction vat (1) there is a rotor which causes a downward rotating current in the reaction vat. Above the reaction vat (1) a mixture of ozone and UV-irradiated liquid is conducted and is in turn sucked down and mixed with the liquid that is to be conditioned during the rotating downward current. The invention can be used for the oxidation and disinfection of both sensitive biological environments such as lakes, streams, etc., and less sensitive environments like swimming pools and the like, since the conditioning ozone can either be ozone produced using UV-irradiation or so-called high tension ozone, also known as corona ozone.
