Patent EP-1130668-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ONISHI MASATO
IPC: H01M10/34
Filed: 2001-02-20
Abstract: A battery (1) which has undergone initial charging and
discharging is placed inside a sealed vessel (3), which is
evacuated by a vacuum pump (9). After this evacuated state
has been maintained for a while, the density of hydrogen gas
within the sealed vessel (3) is measured by a hydrogen
density sensor (11), based on which the presence or absence
of a gas escape from the battery is determined. The battery
may be heated instead of subjecting it to charging and
discharging.

Abstract: This invention discloses a method for preparing a lactic acid fermented
soy proteinaceous food ingredient having reduced levels of those
oligosaccharides that lead to abdominal discomfort due to gas production
when ingested by a mammal, compared to the levels present in crude soy
materials. The method employs a source of glycosidase activity that is
effective to hydrolyze the oligosaccharides to a fermentable saccharide; and a
lactic fermentation to provide the ingredient. The invention additionally
discloses a process for preparing a food product containing the lactic acid
fermented soy proteinaceous food ingredient. Examples of food products
which may be provided include process cheeses, cottage cheese, cream
cheeses, yogurts, puddings, pastas, meat products, meat substitutes, tofu,
cereals, and beverages.

Abstract: The invention discloses a novel method for dry cleaning of a
fabric material characterized by the use of a unique dry cleaning solvent
which is a tris(trimethylsiloxy) silane compound represented by
the general formula of RSi(-O-SiMe 3 ) 3 , in which Me is a methyl group
and R is a monovalent hydrocarbon group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms or,
preferably, a methyl group, or a mixture thereof with a petroleum-based
hydrocarbon solvent in a limited proportion. In addition to the
excellent effect of dry cleaning equivalent to that of conventional dry
cleaning solvents and little unpleasant smell remaining on the fabric
material, the solvent used in the inventive method is little liable for the
problems of environmental pollution against public and workers' health
and the problem of ozone layer destruction in the aerosphere due to
emission of vapors of halogenated hydrocarbon solvents can be
solved by the inventive method.

Abstract: An extraction device for a biological fluid with an additive solution in which it is desirable for the additive solution to be present in a particular volume proportion to the biological fluid. The volume proportion of the additive solution is determined by the ratio of cross sections of two tubes, one which supplies the biological fluid to a collecting bag and a second which supplies the additive solution to a collecting bag. The tubes are periodically constricted in constriction areas by a pump. The tubes are configured so that the additive solution and the biological fluid only mix downstream of the constriction areas, thereby reducing the risk of supplying the additive solution to the source of the biological fluid. In an exemplary embodiment the biological fluid is blood collected from a patient or donor and the additive solution is an anticoagulant and/or preservation solution.

Filed: 2001-10-30
Abstract: A device for scanning a first and second type of optical record carriers (2; 40) of different thickness generates a first and a second radiation beam of different wavelengths. The first radiation beam (17) has a first numerical aperture NA1. The second radiation beam (46) has an effective second numerical aperture NA2 smaller NA1. The rays of the second radiation beam having an NA smaller than NA2 form a central sub-beam (48), the rays having a larger NA form an outer sub-beam (49). The device includes a non-periodic phase structure that does not affect the first radiation beam. The introduced spherical aberration compensates the difference in spherical aberration caused by the difference in thickness of the transparent layers (3; 41). To reduce the amount of stray light falling on the detection system (25) from rays in the outer sub-beam (49), the phase structure introduces an amount of defocus in the second radiation beam (17). Which displaces the focus of the central sub-beam with respect to of the outer sub-beam, causing the intensity distribution of the central and outer sub-beam to split in two separate distributions. If the position and size of the detection system are properly chosen, the detection system will capture mainly rays from the central sub-beam and not from the outer sub-beam. Hence, the displacement of the foci allows spatial filtering in the plane of the detection system (25) of the desired and undesired rays of the second radiation beam.
