Title: Polyamide membrane exhibiting an increased hydrolysis stability and method for the production thereof
Inventor: WECHS FRIEDBERT
IPC: B01D67/00
Filed: 2001-05-23
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a hydrolytically stable polyamide membrane having an open-pored, microporous and sponge-like support-layer structure, using a process involving thermally induced liquid-liquid phase separation. A solution of an aliphatic polyamide in a solvent system, which may include a solvent and a non-solvent for the polyamide, is extruded to form a shaped object. After leaving the die, the shaped object is cooled by means of a cooling medium until phase separation occurs and the polymer-rich phase solidifies to form the membrane structure. The solution of the polyamide in the solvent system contains an antioxidant agent as a stabiliser for the polyamide which, together with the solvent system, is selected in a way that the antioxidant agent is essentially insoluble in the solvent system at the phase separation temperature. The invention also relates to a polyamide membrane with improved hydrolytic stability, characterised in that  contains an antioxidant agent as a stabiliser for improving hydrolytic stability.

Abstract: A modular feed-though adapter that allows an electrical connection to a power line network adapter without "using up" an electrical outlet is described. In one embodiment, the modular feed-through adapter also provides noise filtering to protect electrical equipment plugged into the feed-through outlet. The noise filtering also protects the power line network data signals from noise generated by the devices plugged into the feed-through adapter. In one embodiment, the network connections provided by the feed-through adapter are low voltage connections, thus allowing the network connections from the feed-through adapter to be safely plugged directly into low-voltage equipment such as computer network cards and the like. In one embodiment, the modular adapter includes a ball to couple network data signals to the power line.

Abstract: According to a burner of the present invention, a stable
combustion is obtained in a wide range from a high-load operation
condition to a low-load operation condition even in the case
of low quality solid fuel such as brown coal. 
     The amount of air supplied from additional air holes or
additional air nozzles 12 can be adjusted depending on the
combustion load of furnace 41. At a low load, the amount of
air supplied from additional air holes or additional air nozzles
12 is increased, whereby the oxygen concentration in a
recirculation zones 19 formed downstream of the outside of a
fuel nozzle 11 exit, permits a stable combustion. At a high
load, the amount of air supplied from additional air holes or
additional air nozzles 12 is reduced, whereby a flame is formed
in a position far from the fuel nozzle 11. This suppresses
thermal radiation onto a solid fuel burner 42 structure and
a furnace 41 wall. The solid fuel burner 42 is applicable to
combustion using low-quality solid fuel such as brown coal and
exhaust gas as the carrier gas.

Abstract: An arrangement for embedding a watermark in an information signal is disclosed. In order to make the embedded watermark more robust against hacking, a property of the watermark is randomized (11) which is irrelevant for the watermark detection. One example is randomizing (111) the magnitudes (abs) of the Fourier transformed watermark. Another example is randomly shifting the spatial or temporal position of the watermark with respect to the signal at a relatively low temporal frequency. The invention allows embedding (13) of spatially different watermarks without affecting the performance of a detector.

Abstract: Procedure for production of animal feed encapsulated in digestible shell. Procedure for production of unheated mealy animal feed encapsulated in digestible shell forming feed blocks larger than 30x30x30mm and which may have different shapes. The procedure (Fig.1.0) consists in feeding of unheated mealy core product through a feeder screw (1) to a compressing screw (2) where the core product is deaerateed and thus attains higher density. From the compressing screw the product is led to a joint die (5) where a core die part forms the shape of the core product. The shell product is led through a feeder screw (3) to an extruder-cooker (4) where the shell product is extruder-cooked and fed to the joint die (5) where a shell die part forms the shape of the shell product around the core product. From the joint die (5) the shelled feed is led to a cutter (6) cutting the feed stick into desired lengths and closing the ends of the feed blocks. From the cutter (6) the feed blocks are led to a stamping roller (7) where company name, product name, lot No., production date and other product related information are burned or imprinted into the feed block surfaces. The finished feed blocks (8) are then led to palletising.

Abstract: The invention relates to a retaining clip for fixing functional elements on a shank (1), in particular, a longitudinally-ribbed plastic shank. The clip consists of a receiving body (2) for the shank (1) and retaining means (3) for the functional elements, such as for example electric cables, cable trees or similar. The receiving body (2) is equipped with several retaining gills (4) located at graduated offsets opposite one another, the retaining edges (5) of said gills pointing towards the centre and pressing against the ribs (6) of the shank. Flexible supporting legs (11), projecting obliquely downwards, are moulded onto the lower edge (9) of the receiving body (2). To indicate a secure assembly, a flexible bar (12), which extends transversally across the receiving chamber (13), is moulded onto a lateral wall (7) above the retaining gills (4). The free end (14) of said bar just makes contact with the underside of a projection (15) on the opposite lateral wall (8). The receiving chamber (13) is covered by a transverse wall (10) close to the bar (12). When the shank is introduced, the free end (14) of said bar strikes the wall in an audible manner, after clearing the projection (15).
