Patent EP-1536707-B1 (EP)
Inventor: KININMONTH MICHAEL ANDREW
IPC: D06B7/00

Abstract: A garment having recoverable stretch properties is made from a fabric woven from warp and/or weft yarns of normally inelastic lyocell yarns which have a crimped configuration which is set-in and which imparts a stretch in the warp and/or weft direction of the fabric of at least 15 per cent with a stretch recovery of at least 90 per cent. An uncreased garment having such recoverable stretch properties is produced by holding the garment in an unconstrained and uncreased condition, for example by suspending it from a hanger, and immersing it successively in a bath of swelling agent such as sodium hydroxide solution to develop the crimp and then in a wash bath to set the crimp. An arrangement of creasescan be set into such a garment by trying it into a bundle before the swelling and crimp-setting steps, and this procedure may also be applied to a garment knitted from normally inelastic lyocell yarns.

Abstract: A device for detecting the amount of splash water to which a brake pad is subjected on a wet roadway. The device includes a test brake pad, whose friction lining is hygroscopically designed so that it can absorb at least 5%, preferably at least 10% water. In a test phase, vehicles can be easily tested by replacing their stock brake pads with test brake pads. By virtue of the fact that the inventive friction lining is hygrogospic. a direct correlation exists between the water absorption of the friction lining and the amount of moisture led to the friction lining in the form of splash water and air humidity.

Abstract: A valve system including an aortic valve (10) and a holder. The holder includes a holder body (40), which has a central portion, engageable with a holder handle (20), and downwardly extending leg portions (42A, B, C) that engage the valve in the areas between the commissure posts (16, 17, 18). The central portion of the holder further includes a spool located between the commissure posts, rotatable by an attached handle. Rotation of the spool draws in a tensile member (26) passing through the commissure posts, drawing the commissure posts inward toward the spool. The tensile member passes through guides formed in the holder, configured such that they define the maximum available inward deflection of the commissure posts at the point at which the portions of the tensile member between the commissure posts assume straight configurations.

Abstract: For reducing Doppler artifacts in the wave-field synthesis due to delay changes from one time to a second time, first, the delay for the first time and the delay for the second time are determined. Then, a value of an audio signal delayed by the first delay for the current time and the value for the audio signal delayed by the second delay for the current time are determined. Then, the first value is weighted by a first weighting factor and a second value is averaged with a second weighting factor, whereupon the two weighted values are added up to obtain a discrete value for the current time of the component in a loudspeaker signal for a loudspeaker based on a virtual source. Thus, by knowing a delay present at a later time, panning is obtained from a delay to a subsequent delay, which reduces undesired Doppler artifacts.
