Abstract: An air/oil separation tank for installation in a circuit for the production of compressed air, the circuit including an intake regulator (1) which intercepts external air and sends the air to an oil bath spin compressor (2) which is activated by an electric motor (3). The pressurized air/oil mixture produced by the compressor, passes through conduit (4) to enter separation tank (5) in which the separation of the oil from the air occurs. The air under pressure passes through radiator (6) and fills accumulation tank (7) waiting to be used, while the oil (8) deposited at the bottom of the separator, is picked up by conduit (9) and passes through radiator (10) to be brought again to compressor (2).

Abstract: A telecommunications system for improving quality of service (QoS) to users via the implementation of an extended outer loop power control algorithm. A radio resource manager (RRM) operates to determine the number of channels allotted to users within a network at a certain time. The RRM implements the extended outer loop power control algorithm for each allotted channel, thus determining SIR reference values for each allotted channel. The RRM ensures that the SIR reference value for any channel does not fall below a predetermined minimum value. The SIR reference value to be used for all channels in use is determined as the highest of all the calculated SIR reference values. The extended outer loop power control algorithm can be implemented at a mobile station level, base station level or radio network controller level. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A sensor and a method for detecting humidity drops on the outer side of a glass pane of a motor vehicle. The sensor has several transmitting elements assembled into two transmitting branches that are jointly connected to at least one optical receiving element in a control circuit. The control circuit regulates the transmitting power of the transmitting elements in each branch so that the luminous power of the optical beams received by the receiving element and the luminous power of the optical beams transmitted by the transmitting elements of both transmission branches are equally high. The sensor has a control for storing initial values for the control signals of the transmitting elements before operation of the sensor and detecting static deviation from the difference between the actual value of the control signals and the initial value during operation of the sensor.

Abstract: An electrically controlled light modulator device comprises at least one cell, where two deformable dielectric layers meet at an interface, at least one of said layers consisting of viscoelastic relief forming gel. A first support electrode structure and a second signal electrode structure are arranged on separate sides of the dielectric layers in order to create an electric field passing through said layers and in order to create surface reliefs on the viscoelastic gel layer. According to the invention, a third enhancement electrode structure is arranged in the proximity of the first signal electrode structure. Applying enhancement signal voltage between the enhancement electrode structure and the signal electrode structure concentrates locally the electric field passing through the two deformable dielectric layers and therefore enhances the amplitude of the deformation of the viscoelastic gel layer.

Abstract: Improved citral derivatives, that have a longer useful shelf life than citral fragrances and flavorings, are disclosed. In one embodiment, the derivatives are prepared by replacing one or more double bonds in citral with a cyclopropyl group, which can be unsubstituted, or substituted with one or two lower alkyl, preferably methyl groups. The alkyl groups can optionally be substituted, for example, with electron donating groups, electron with drawing groups, groups which increase the hydrophilicity or hydrophobocity, and the like. In the derivatives the aldehyde group may be replaced with a nitrile, methyl ether or acetal group. The acetal groups can provide the compounds with a long lasting flavor or fragrance, where the acetals slowly hydrolyze to provide the aldehyde group in citral. Examples of suitable articles of manufacture include candles, air fresheners, perfumes, disinfectant compositions, hypochlorite (bleach) compositions, beverages such as beer and soda, denture cleanser tablets and flavored orally-delivered products such as lozenges, candies, and the like. The derivatives preferably have the structure: <EMI ID=1.1 HE=22 WI=61 LX=576 LY=1907 TI=CF> <PC>wherein Z is O, S, CR 2  or a double or a single bond provided at least one Z is O, S or CR 2 ; and X is a nitrile, methyl ether, or acetal group.

Abstract: The invention relates to an object turner or a turning apparatus ( 4 ) for end-turning of e.g. ice-cream cones ( 22 ) after selective deflection of the objects ( 22 ) from an object conveyor ( 2 ) on which the objects are placed lying in horizontal trays ( 6 ). The novelty of the turning apparatus ( 4 ) according to the invention is that the turning apparatus ( 4 ) has selection means, which makes the turning process selective, and means ensuring that the process operates in parallel and synchronously with the object conveyor ( 2 ). The selected objects ( 22 ) are forwarded into a turning unit ( 8 ), where the object ( 22 ) is end-turned around a horizontal axis ( 38 ), and returned onto the object conveyor ( 2 ) in the same tray ( 6 ) previously occupied by the object. Such a turning apparatus ( 4 ) makes it possible for objects ( 22 ) to be end-turned in a predetermined pattern of e.g. all objects, every second or third object. The turning apparatus ( 4 ) shows a high level of reliability and at the same time gentle processing of the objects ( 22 ). The turning process is carried out quickly, and the apparatus ( 2, 4 ) typically has a capacity of 300 to 600 objects/minute.

Abstract: A filter product includes a filtration media combined with a multi-component frame assembly that can effectively support the filtration media in place proximal to its edges and in accordance with its desired orientation and wherein the assembly can be selectively taken apart to provide access to the filtration media by way of a releasable lock connection. Preferably, a snap-fit releasable locking system is incorporated within the frame design. The present invention is particularly applicable to filtration media comprising pleated filtration media. Such support features include rack-like media engagement elements, which elements are advantageously provided so as to preferably engage the filtration media proximal to its side and end edges from above and below to preferably compress and ensure an effective seal and support connection between the frame and the filtration media. Such a construction is further beneficial for supporting filtration media that includes a layer or other loading of particulate matter therein. The media engagement elements are spaced along the side of a support frame and a hold down frame and the side frame elements include sidewalls in combination. The sidewalls are spaced from the media engagement elements so as to support and preferable compress the filtration media inward from its side and end edges to support and effectively contain the filtration media and any particulate material therein.
