Patent IE-852855-L (IE)
Title: Panty brief.
IPC: A41B9/02
Filed: 1985-11-15
Abstract: A panty brief consists wholly or partly of elastic textile material, preferably made by knitting or crocheting, and is formed as a flat, substantially rectangular bag which is closed along three marginal zones (2,3,4). The bag is open in the whole extension of one longitudinal edge to provide a waist opening (7) at the non-connected marginal zones (6), and is provided with two leg openings (11).To produce such a panty brief, having inclined leg openings and a good fit, without any form of after-fashioning, inexpensively and by automatic machines, the leg openings (11) are located opposite one another in the two sides (1) of the bag in a position between the marginal zone (6) and the opposite marginal zone (4) so that two of the interconnected marginal zones (2, 3) are placed in the front and the back of the panty brief, while the third (4) is located in the crotch region (5) of the panty brief between the leg openings (11).

Inventor: ALLEGRA LOUIS K
IPC: F01N13/16
Filed: 1981-01-14
Abstract: This invention is directed to an improved zinc containing metallic coated ferrous product, particularly sheet and strip, which is resistant to intergranular penetration by zinc and embrittlement of the ferrous base. Use of such zinc containing metallic coated ferrous product in elevated-temperature service, such as found with certain appliances and automotive exhaust components, is enhanced by the coated products of this invention. The resistance to embrittlement of the zinc containing metallic coated ferrous base, when subjected to elevated service temperatures, is achieved by the use of a high-phosphorus containing steel base. For a plain content steel base, a phosphorus content of at least 0.020% by weight, preferably at least 0.030%, and more preferably at least 0.039% was found sufficient to render such zinc-alloy coated ferrous base resistant to embrittlement by zinc. By use of such high phosphorus ferrous base, for the reception of a zinc containing alloy coating, an improved metallic coated ferrous product has been found which resists intergranular penetration by zinc and embrittlement of the ferrous base. Such coated product has extended service life at temperatures above about 450 DEG  F. (232 DEG  C.) and when restored to room temperature possesses a high degree of ductility.

Abstract: Method of bringing gases into contact with compostible or partially composted material, by which the material resting in the form of a mass on a layer of particulate material is traversed by a gas, preferably air, this air being introduced into the mass by gas-distributing means, e.g. a main pipe (1) and a plurality of perforated branch pipes (2), embedded in or covered by the layer of particulate material, and in which the layer comprises a first-part layer (8) of relatively coarse particulate material, intended to serve as a protection for the gas-distributing means and as a distributing filter for the through-flowing gas, and a second-part layer (9) arranged upon the first-part layer and comprising relatively fine particulate material, the second-part layer being intended to distribute the through-flowing gas before the gas is introduced into the compostible or partially composted material. The second-part layer of the layer comprises a mixture of the relatively fine particulate material as ballast material, as well as a binding agent, it having such a particle size distribution and the ingredients being present in such mixing proportions that this second-part layer acquires an open-pore structure having a pressure drop suitable for uniform gas distribution while, at the same time, it is able to withstand the weight of heavy vehicles.

DBC detekterer innkommende celler, identifiserer kilden til cellene, til-veiebringer bufferlagring for cellene og styrer utmatingen av cellene til system-svitsjer i henhold til en aktuell cellehastighet (CR) tildelt cellene fra den respektive kilde. Systemet innbefatter også en permanent virtuell vei med en forutbestemt minste båndbredde gjennom systemet og tildeler ytterligere båndbredde etter be-hov opp til en maksimal verdi. Den ytterligere båndbredde som tildeles veien, kan automatisk fjernes eller reduseres hvis den ikke blir brukt av kilden. Tilbakemel-ding til kilden kan være tilveiebrakt for å hindre at celler blir levert med en hastig-het som ville resultere i betydelig celletap på grunn av begrensningen av den til-gjengelige båndbredde for veien i systemet.
