Title: Process for preparing foodstuffs in a hot air oven
Inventor: UBERT HARALD
IPC: A23L19/12
Filed: 1995-10-09
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP95/03970 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 8, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 8, 1996 PCT Filed Oct. 9, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/10926 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 18, 1996An improved process for cooking foodstuffs, e.g. french fried potatoes from a cold initial state, in a hot air oven with a steam phase and a roasting phase, includes the following steps: preheating a refining chamber to a predetermined temperature, introducing the foodstuff to be cooked into a basket mounted for rotation within the refining chamber, switching on a basket-rotating drive, switching on a hot air fan, reheating the refining chamber, refining the foodstuff in the refining chamber, part of the water contained in the foodstuff passing into the ambient atmosphere within the refining chamber, thereby creating an atmosphere of increased moisture (steam phase), replacing the moist atmosphere with relatively drier hot air, thereby beginning a roasting phase, and switching off the heating, fan, and basket-rotating drive when cooking is completed. The cooking process is speeded up by heating the foodstuff during the steam phase to a temperature higher than a dry-air temperature at which the foodstuff burns, heretofore considered the maximum usable cooking temperature.

Title: Antenna connector for radio communication equipment
Inventor: RYOU BYUNGHOON
IPC: H01Q1/27
Filed: 1999-05-31
Abstract: An antenna connector for radio communication equipment is disclosed. The above connector converts the conventional parallel resonance of an antenna into a series resonance by forming a flat cutout portion on its impedance transformer, or the signal feed part for the antenna, without changing the characteristics of the antenna, thus broadening the bandwidth of the antenna. The connector is also designed to control or broaden the bandwidth of the antenna in accordance with the structure of the impedance transformer. The connector of this invention easily and simply controls the bandwidth of an antenna by changing the size and height of the impedance transformer, by changing the surface area of the cutout portion of the impedance transformer, or by changing the number of turns of the antenna fitted over the impedance transformer. Therefore, the connector is effectively used at various frequencies, and effectively and quickly meets a variation of the central frequency of an antenna with the variation being caused by a change in environmental conditions of the antenna.

Title: Vented sealing closure
Inventor: MARIO ANDRE
IPC: B65D51/16
Filed: 1985-11-14
Abstract: A sealing device for containers which forms a valve for automatic elimination of overpressurized gases that may form with the container is provided. The device is composed of a rigid cap having a flat crown and depending skirt, an elastic disk sector in contact with the underside of the flat crown and an inner cap having a circular crown with a circular cutout and raised circular rim on an upperside thereof. A flat circular protuberance on the underside surface of the disk sector, when the device is in use fits into and is surrounded by the circular crown portion, both of which are adapted to fit vertically over the orifice of the container. When in use, the circular crown exerts a crushing pressure on the upper portion of the elastic disk sector while at the same time the flat circular protuberance remains sufficiently elastic to allow gases overpressurized to vent from the container.
