Patent EP-0398530-A2 (EP)
Inventor: LOVE GRAHAM
IPC: B65D81/00
Filed: 1990-04-26
Abstract: A cassette (14) for flavoring a liquid and for use with a liquid receptacle (12) having an internal locking flange (26). The cassette comprises a ring (36) defining an interior and forming a bottom annular groove (32) to receive the locking flange (26) of the liquid receptacle (12) and thereby to hold the cassette (14) in place therein. The cassette further includes a plurality of ribs (40) connected to and extending across the ring and separating the interior thereof into a multitude of sections, and particles (24) disposed in said sections for flavoring a liquid. A bottom filter (44) and a top filter (42) are secured to the ring (36) and extend across the bottom and top, respectively, of the interior of the ring to hold the flavoring particles therein. Preferably, the cassette is packaged in a sealed vacuum pack; and as it is so packaged, the mass of particles in each section of the cassette is reshaped slightly and formed into a firm conglomerate, which facilitates the subsequent flow of a liquid through the cassette.

Abstract: A transport member (5) moves in a cyclic path to carry material from a first location (10) to a second location (20) at a different temperature, and counter-moving portions of the member exchange heat with each other along an intermediate portion (30) of the path, so that minimum energy is lost to the environment. In one embodiment as a printing apparatus, a belt (5) transports a heat-fusible toner to a heated location (7) where it softens and is transferred by pressure as a print image to a sheet. Effective powder pick up and release is obtained in the printing apparatus with a transport member having an elastomeric base layer of a sufficient softness to conform to a rough member such as paper, and a non-tacky outer coating which is harder than the elastomeric layer. The outer coating has a low surface free energy, and is thin enough to conform, but hard enough to prevent entrainment of toner particles. A dielectric filler adjusts both the capacitance and the hardness of the belt. This allows a single thin belt to serve as the imaging element, i.e., as the latent and developed image carrier, as well as the element which transfers and fuses toner to a print. A duplex system employs two belt-imaging members which each travel over one of a pair of opposed elastic pressure rollers to deposit a two-sided image on a sheet.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for generating a control signal (TMS) which may be used to control the test activity of boundary scan system (10). The method is initiated by loading a multi-bit control macro (STI, DTI or DSTI) into a register (38) whose output is coupled back to its input. After loading of the macro, its identity is ascertained by a macro controller (42) which serves to decode a multi-bit signal (IT) whose state is indicative of the macro type. The macor controller (42) actuates the register to shift out the bits of the control macro in a sequence dependent on the macro's identity in order to generate the appropriate control signal. As each bit is shifted out, it is shifted back into the register so as to allow the same sequence of bits to be repeatedly shifted out.

Abstract: For treating the surface of objects, the objects in a straining basket are immersed in a treatment liquid. After part of the duration of action of the treatment liquid has elapsed, the objects to be treated are reoriented by allowing them to fall in the straining basket and at the same time the treatment liquid is agitated. For this purpose, use is made of a screening basket (3) in which an intermediate bottom (6) is provided at a distance above its bottom (5). The intermediate bottom (6) consists of two parts (7, 8) which can fold downwards and are held in their active position by pivotable supports (15). The supports (15) possess projections (17) which come up against stops (18) as the straining basket (3) is lowered, are pivoted and release the parts (7, 8) of the intermediate bottom (6) so that the latter fold downwards. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A hand-held impact tool for effecting terminations in a telecommunications terminal block uses a blade with a setting edge and a pivotable cutter for cutting a conductor wire. Several impact settings for varying the seating impact force at the blade are settable by moving a pouch relative to the handle in one direction. Movement of the pouch in another direction will allow release of a blade stored inside the pouch or insertion of a blade into an empty pouch. A switch on the handle allows the cutter to be actuated by compression and release of the tool or to be disengaged so that only an impact seating function occurs.

Abstract: An aromatic polythiazole is produced from an aromatic diaminodithiol compound and a dicarboxylic acid derivative, by a method comprising the steps of: (a) selectively reacting the aromatic diaminodithiol compound salt with an alkyl halide having an optionally substituted alkyl group in an alkaline aqueous solvent, such that the hydrogen atoms in the thiol groups of the aromatic diaminodithiol compound are replaced by the alkyl groups; (b) polymerizing the resulting alkyl group-substituted aromatic diaminodithiol compound with the dicarboxylic acid derivative to form an aromatic polythiazole prepolymer; and (c) heating the aromatic polythiazole prepolymer to cause a thiazole ring closure reaction, thereby producing the aromatic polythiazole. By this method, the amino groups of the aromatic diaminodithiol compound salt are selectively reacted with the dicarboxylic acid derivative.

Abstract: The invention provides a polymer composition comprising polyvinylidene chloride and polyethyloxazoline. The composition possesses an unusual combination of characteristics; the inclusion of polyethyloxazoline in the polyvinylidene chloride causes a substantial increase in moisture permeability with no substantial change in permeability to oxygen or carbon dioxide. The polyethyloxazoline is highly miscible with the polyvinylidene chloride and reduces melt viscosity. The combination of properties is indicative of utility as a packaging film.

Abstract: In a tank with an inner liner, even materials which are difficult to store and are to be protected against air and other substances can be safely stored if the inner liner is fastened to the rising pipe in such a way as to sheath the latter. This enables the material to be effectively stored against the subsequent flow of air, the through-flow bore being placed and arranged in such a way that the air passing the through-flow bore flows in between the inner liner and the inner wall and thus without being able to reach the material which has lasted in the inner liner. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for mapping sampled patterns into a lower resolution display device whereby a continuous image of the sampled pattern is reproduced includes the steps of determining the pixel location of each element of high resolution sampled data and the relative location within the pixel (105), deciding whether the pixels (105) corresponding to the mapped data points should be included in the image, and graphically connecting selected pixels (105) which are separated by one or more pixels (105). The process of pixel selection is aided by dividing each pixel (105) into two separate areas, the boundary of which is determined by a predetermined geometric shape such as a diamond (110,110A) or circle which is entirely contained within a pixel (105). If a high resolution sampled data point or a connecting line (111) falls within that predetermined geometric shape (110,110A) inside the pixel (105), then that pixel (105) is selected, whereas data points falling outside the predetermined area (110,110A) within the pixel (105) do not select that pixel (105) for activation.
