Patent EP-1268042-A1 (EP)
Inventor: COLLINS GREGORY R
IPC: B01D61/14
Filed: 2001-01-11
Abstract: A dual-stage filtration system and methods for using the same include first and second filtration cartridges particularly suited for hemodiafiltration and/or hemodialysis. As fluid enters the first filtration cartridge, the hydrogen ion concentration (pH) is reduced by exposing it to an acidic solution such as citric acid across a filter membrane. This stage allows for improved removal of certain toxins in the fluid, such as protein-bound substances that disassociate more readily from proteins at a lower pH. As the filtered fluid enters the second filtration cartridge, the pH of the fluid is restored to normal levels prior to infusion to a patient.

Title: Inhalateur de poudre seche
Inventor: LIGOTKE MICHAEL
IPC: A61M15/02
Filed: 2001-01-31
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un inhalateur de poudre sèche (20) présentant un compartiment de dispersion (30) contenant des billes (40). Une dose de poudre sèche (142) est libérée dans le compartiment ou dans un espace d'entrée (26) faisant tangentiellement la jonction avec l'intérieur du compartiment. Lorsqu'un patient aspire dans un embout nasal ou buccal (22), l'air se déplace de manière circulaire à travers le compartiment de dispersion et entraîne les billes. Les billes roulent, rebondissent et entrent en collision de façon répétée avec les particules de médicaments sur les surfaces du compartiment ou sur les billes. Les plus petites particules actives de médicament sont séparées des particules porteuses de taille supérieure et se séparent entre elles, et un aérosol poudreux est produit et inhalé par le patient. Les billes sont de préférence légères de sorte qu'elles peuvent être rapidement accélérées et déplacées, même lors de l'aspiration nominale. Les billes qui permettent un flux d'air supérieur et une meilleure dispersion de la poudre, donnent ainsi à l'inhalateur une résistance à l'écoulement plus faible, sans que le patient n'ait à fournir un effort important.

Abstract: A method of defrosting of a heat exchanger (evaporator) in a vapor compression system including, downstream of a heat exchanger (evaporator) ( 3 ) to be defrosted, at least a compressor ( 1 ), a second heat exchanger (condenser/heat rejecter) ( 2 ), and an expansion device ( 6 ) connected by conduits in an operable manner to form an integral closed circuit. The heat exchanger ( 3 ) to be defrosted is subjected to essentially the same pressure as the compressor's ( 1 ) discharge pressure. Thus, the heat exchanger ( 3 ) is defrosted as the high-pressure discharge gas from the compressor ( 1 ) flows through to the heat exchanger, giving off heat to the heat exchanger ( 3 ). In the circuit, in connection with the expansion device ( 6 ) a first bypass loop 23 with a first valve ( 16 '), is provided. A pressure reducing device ( 6 ') is provided in a second bypass loop in conjunction with a second valve ( 16 ''') disposed downstream of the heat exchanger ( 3 ) being defrosted, whereby the first valve ( 16 ') is open and the second valve ( 16 ''') is closed when defrosting takes place.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif de transfert d'un premier poste (15A, 16A) à un second poste (15B, 16B) d'outillage d'une presse à couvercles (11). Ce couvercle est appliqué contre des premiers outils supérieurs au moyen d'un premier courant d'air (50) introduit sous le couvercle, et il remonte sous l'action du poinçon (45) du premier poste. Dès que le poinçon est proche de sa position la plus haute, un courant d'air (52) de transfert commence pendant que le premier courant d'air continue, ce qui dégage le couvercle via un toboggan (18) aboutissant au second poste. Le couvercle sort du toboggan et passe sur des crans (67) garnissant une paire de doigts de retenue fermés (60) qui définissent un prolongement du chemin de transfert depuis le toboggan pour aboutir entre les outils ouverts du second poste. Un vide appliqué à un orifice du poinçon du second poste maintient alors le couvercle contre les outils supérieurs qui remontent. Lorsque le poinçon dégage les doigts en train de se refermer et se rapproche de sa position la plus haute, un courant d'air d'éjection (87) commence à pousser la coupelle terminée via un toboggan de décharge (19).

Abstract: Process of and machine for producing loop-shaped food products from a dough of
cereal flour. This process and this machine allow to achieve: the drawing of the dough
into a plurality of dough beads (11), through a die; the conveying on a band (10) and the
separation of the plurality of dough beads through a separator; the cutting of the
plurality of oriented dough beads into a plurality of dough segments, having a leading
portion and a trailing portion, through cutting means (20); the conformation of the food
products, from the plurality of dough segments, by rolling up the leading and trailing
portions of such segments round a plurality of conformation means (300) through a
plurality of rolling means (400) and by radial pressing of the ends of the leading and
trailing portions. Such a production cycle can be repeated by lifting the cutting means
(20) and the conformation means (300), this causing the removal of the food products
thus conformed. 
     The industrial production of these products guarantees the quality of the products
obtained manually because of the fact that, firstly, the rolling up of the leading and
trailing portions of each dough segment is achieved by radial superimposition of their
ends and, secondly, during the rolling up each portion is worked by the corresponding
rolling means (400) by causing the rotation of this latter round its own axis
perpendicularly to the rolling direction and parallel to the axis round which the rolling
up takes place, according to a direction which is concord with the rolling direction.
