Abstract: The invention relates to a method for simultaneously spin stretching continuous threads consisting of at least one filament. Said method involves the following steps: a melt consisting of a thermoplastic material is supplied to a spinning device; the melt is extruded through a spinneret by means of extrusion openings, forming the continuous threads; said continuous threads are guided through a first and a second cooling area in order to be cooled essentially by an air current in the first cooling area and essentially by a liquid in the second cooling area, said liquid consisting fully or partially of a constituent which is liquid at room temperature; and the continuous threads are then dried, drafted and coiled up by means of coiling devices. The inventive method is characterised in that the continuous threads are guided through the first and second cooling areas at a speed of up to 500 m/min and the residence time of the continuous threads inside the first cooling area is at least 0.1 s.

Abstract: A display container 10 comprises four trays 12, 14, 16, 18 which are stacked one on top
of the other. The trays are coupled together by means of a coupling arrangement which
allows them to move from a transit position where the trays are stacked directly on top of

IPC: C30B15/14
Filed: 2001-01-31
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant de réguler la quantité de gaz insolubles emmagasinée dans un bain de silicium. Après chargement d'un creuset avec un silicium polycristallin, un gaz comprenant au moins environ 10 % d'un gaz ayant une solubilité élevée dans le silicium, est utilisé comme gaz de purge pendant un certain temps durant la fusion. Après fusion complète de la charge de silicium polycristallin, le gaz de purge peut être remplacé par une purge conventionnelle à l'argon. L'utilisation d'un gaz de purge hautement soluble dans le silicium pendant un certain temps durant le processus de fusion permet de réduire la quantité de gaz insolubles emmagasinée dans la charge et, de ce fait, de réduire la quantité des gaz isolubles renfermés à l'intérieur du cristal, responsables de la formation de défauts sur les tranches de silicium.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a differential pressure regulator (1) having a lower part (2) and an upper part (3), the upper part being connected to the lower part. The lower part has an inlet (4) and an outlet (5). Between the inlet and the outlet there is a partition (6) with a valve seat (7), against which a valve body (8) acts at one end of a valve spindle (9), mounted in the upper part and actuatable in an axial direction by means of a biased compression spring (33) and surrounded by a membrane (30), which is fastened by means of a bead (27) all around between the upper part (3) and the lower part (2) and seals these parts against each other. According to the invention the coupling end (21) of the upper part (3) beyond a stop flange (20) in a direction towards the lower part is designed as an axially directed, annual projection (24), which at its free end forms a radially outwardly directed holding flange (25), enclosing a groove (26) all around, in which the membrane bead (27) is inserted. The fastening area of the membrane (28) is axially directed, i.e. mainly parallel to the insertion direction. A sealing is accomplished through a radial compression of the bead area (27) between an axial inner wall (18) of the coupling end (55) of the lower part and the bottom of the groove (26). The stop flange (20) acts against a step (19) in the coupling end of the lower part and a locking ring (23) rotatably retains the upper part on the lower part.
