Abstract: This invention refers to cosmetic compositions, particularly a skin treating preparation, comprising a transparent oil phase and a transparent aqueous phase, preferably with humectant effect, which permits a homogeneous mixture when being shaken, and which separates again in two transparent phases thereafter. These properties are achieved by the addition of 0.1 to 1.0% by weight of a C12-C18 fatty acid triglycerol ester.

Abstract: The method and apparatus of this invention facilitate operation of a bar code reader over a wider range of working angle and for a wider range of bar code densities. The invention includes improved optics and sensing elements. The optics and sensing elements and/or the associated circuitry are arranged to provide two channels of data derived form the scanned bar code. The two channels have differing resolutions. Analysis of the data from the two channels provides a single decoded result. As the working angle and density vary at least one of the resolutions will be appropriate for sensing all or most of the bar coded data. The data from the channel producing a valid result can be used, or if neither channel produces a valid result by itself, data from each channel can be analyzed and valid portions of the data from both channels combined to produce the single decoded result.

Abstract: A control system for a textile dying apparatus processes and distributes digitally encoded pattern information. A substrate is moved on a path along which the surface of the substrate comes into operative range of a plurality of arrays arranged along the path of the substrate. Each of the arrays has a plurality of individual dye applicators capable of selectively projecting a stream of dye onto a predetermined portion of the substrate corresponding to a pattern element in a pattern composed of a pattern element matrix with a plurality of pattern elements in each of a plurality of pattern rows. Each pattern element is associated with a visually distinct pattern area. The dye applicators project dye for a time period determined by the pattern information. The method first determines a set of initial values. From the initial values it generates a firing command matrix having, for each dye applicator in each array, a firing command sequence corresponding to the pattern element to which that dye applicator may apply dye in each pattern row. Finally, the method allocates, for simultaneous transmission to each dye applicator in each array, the firing command sequence in the firing command matrix corresponding to the pattern element in the pattern row to be applied to the predetermined portion of the substrate that is passing within operative range of the dye applicator at the time of transmission. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Pour produire des pâtes de couleur claire en sels de métaux alcalins-alkylesters d'acides gras α-sulfoniques, on fait réagir des alkylesters d'acides gras avec du SO3 gazeux, puis on les fait réagir ultérieurement dans la phase liquide, on les neutralise avec des solutions aqueuses d'hydroxydes de métaux alcalins et on les blanchit. Afin d'obtenir un blanchiment efficace sans réduire la teneur en substance détergente, on ajoute, pendant la neutralisation, du péroxyde d'hydrogène à l'alkylester d'acide gras α-sulfonique et on soumet le produit de neutralisation ainsi obtenu à une réaction ultérieure sous une température contrôlée.

Abstract: La pression de vapeur réelle de compositions liquides, tout particulièrement de compositions à multi-constituants, est mesurée à l'aide d'un appareil (14) comportant un piston et un cylindre qui définissent une chambre de dilatation (84), dans laquelle un échantillon de liquide est piégé. La chambre (84) est dilatée en étapes multiples et des mesures de pression et de température multiples sont faites lors de chaque dilatation pendant une certaine durée. Lors de chaque dilatation, la pression résultante est déterminée à partir de mesures multiples en utilisant la méthode d'approximation des moindres carrés et les valeurs de pression résultantes sont extrapolées pour déterminer la pression de vapeur réelle en utilisant une approximation linéaire. L'appareil est conçu de manière à permettre des mesures continues de la pression de vapeur d'un courant de traitement en échantillonnant un courant de fuite de liquide qui est maintenu à une température constante. L'appareil est monté horizontalement afin de minimiser la profondeur du liquide et d'accroître la vitesse de formation de bulles durant la dilatation de la chambre.

Abstract: A method and apparatus useful in the course of a milking operation in which the milk is intermittently conveyed in the form of separate milk slugs, to accurately determine the mass of the individual milk slugs and to thereby determine the actual milk flow rate. A measuring apparatus of this type is particularly suitable for use as an indicator operable to indicate a drop in the milk flow to below a predetermined value at the end of a milking cycle. An additional operation of measuring the travel speed of the individual milk slugs results in an extremely simple milk flow measuring device being obtained, which is capable of relatively accurately measuring the milk flow rate throughout the milking cycle.

Abstract: Stimulated Raman spectroscopy is used to non-invasively measure the concentration of an Raman active molecule, preferably D-glucose in the ocular aqueous humor of living being. The apparatus and method make use of two monochromatic laser beams, a pump laser beam and a probe laser beam. The output power of the pump laser beam is amplitude modulated, combined with the probe laser beam and directed into the ocular aqueous humor. The introduction of the laser beams into the ocular aqueous humor induces scattered Raman radiation, which causes a portion of the energy at the pump frequency to shift over to the probe frequency. The pump and probe laser beams are then detected as they exit the ocular aqueous humor. The probe laser beam is filtered, converted into an electrical signal and amplified. It is then compared to the modulation signal to generate an electrical signal representative of the concentration of D-glucose in the ocular aqueous humor.

Date Apr. 15, 1993The note path of a banknote validator has a U-shaped transverse cross section. A transverse strip of the note path is illuminated by light from a light transmitting station by means of a unitary light guide which has an arcuate portion conforming to the transverse cross section of the note path. Light reflected from a banknote, within the note path, is captured by the light guide and guided to a light receiving station. The light guide is shaped such that a transverse strip of the note path is substantially evenly illuminated. The U-shape of the note path also assists the insertion of notes into the validator, as an inserted note is caused to bow during insertion thereby increasing its rigidity.
