Abstract: The invention relates to a method for steering an agricultural machine and to an agricultural machine. Especially when treating rows of crops (14, 15) it is important that, for the cultivation operation concerned, a differentiation is made between the crops located in the rows and that which is located between them. For this reason, accurate steering of the agricultural machine has to follow a series of desired positions (15, 18). The driver lines up the agricultural machine with said series with the aid of a marker (25). Furthermore, according to the invention, actual direction of travel of the agricultural machine and not just actual position of the agricultural machine is involved in the determination of the steering corrections to be made.

Abstract: A method of producing a mineral fiber-insulating web comprises the steps of firstly producing a first non-wowen mineral fiber web. The first mineral fiber web contains mineral fibers arranged generally in the longitudinal direction of the mineral fiber web. Secondly, the first mineral fiber web is moved in the longitudinal direction of the web and folded parallel with the longitudinal direction and perpendicular to the transversal direction of the first mineral fiber web, so as to produce a second mineral fiber web comprising a central body and opposite surface layers sandwiching the central body, which central body contains mineral fibers arranged generally perpendicular to the longitudinal and transversal directions of the second mineral fiber web and which surface layers contain mineral fibers arranged generally in the transversal direction of the second mineral fiber web. Thirdly, a third non-wowen mineral fiber web being a mineral fiber web of a higher compactness as compared to the second mineral fiber web is produced and adjoin in facial contact with the second mineral fiber web for producing a fourth composite mineral fiber web which is thereupon cured. The method also optionally includes longitudinally compressing and/or transversally compressing the second mineral fiber web. The composite mineral fiber web may additionally be combined with additional mineral fiber webs or coverings for producing a composite mineral fiber web product which is cured in a single curing process.

Abstract: A floating mass transducer for improving hearing in a hearing impaired person is provided. The floating mass transducer (100) may be implanted or mounted externally for producing vibrations in a vibratory structure of an ear. In an exemplary embodiment, the floating mass transducer comprises a magnet assembly (12) and a coil (14) secured inside a housing (10) which is fixed to an ossicle of a middle ear. The coil is more rigidly secured to the housing than the magnet. The magnet assembly and coil are configured such that conducting alternating electrical current through the coil results in vibration of the magnet assembly and coil relative to one another. The vibration is caused by the interaction of the magnetic fields of the magnet assembly and coil. Because the coil is more rigidly secured to the housing than the magnet assembly, the vibrations of the coil cause the housing to vibrate. The vibrations of the housing are conducted to the oval window of the ear via the ossicles. In alternate embodiments, the floating mass transducer produces vibrations using piezoelectric materials.

Abstract: The motorised roller shutter comprises a braked motor reducer (5) rotating a shutter winding tube (2) held at its ends (6,8) by support webs (3,4). A declutching coupling (11) is interposed between the motor reducer output shaft (10) and the winding tube. This enables, in the de-clutched position, the free rotation of the tube relative to the reducer under the influence of a force exerted directly on the shutter. A return spring (12), constrained during unwinding of the shutter, exerts a return couple on the winding tube. This causes tube rotation in the direction of shutter winding when a push is exerted on the shutter to open it. The winding tube is rotated by the reducer.

Abstract: The gas stream which is produced in and emanates from landfills, anaerobic digesters and other waste gas streams, is treated to produce a purified gas which is essentially a hydrocarbon such as methane and which can be used as the fuel source in a fuel cell power plant. The gas stream passes through a simplified purification system which removes essentially all of the sulfur compounds, hydrogen sulfide, and halogen compounds from the gas stream. The resultant gas stream can be used to power a fuel cell power plant which produces electricity, or as a hydrocarbon fuel gas for other applications.

Abstract: A heat exchange apparatus (10) which can be used as an evaporative condenser, fluid cooler or wet-air cooler, is provided with a direct evaporative heat exchange section (90) overlying an indirect evaporative heat exchange section (50). An air entry zone (120) common to both heat exchange sections (50;90) receives an air stream blown into this zone by at least one fan (24), thereby pressurizing the plenum such that the air stream is forced to split and enter each section (50;90) while inside the apparatus. This eliminates the need for separate air entries, thus condensing the size and cost of the apparatus, while increasing heat exchange capacity. A countercurrent air flow pattern through the direct section (90) provides a uniformly cooled evaporative liquid for use in the indirect section (50). The evaporative liquid flow is parallel to the air stream provided in the indirect section. A process fluid inside the circuits of the indirect section (50) can accept or reject heat from the evaporative liquid received from the direct section (90), with a part of the heat being transferred into the indirect section air stream in sensible and latent form, thus increasing or decreasing the enthalpy of the air stream. The remaining heat can be either stored or released from the evaporative liquid to increase or decrease its temperature. The evaporative liquid is collected in a sump (30) and then pumped upwardly for re-distribution across the direct evaporative heat exchange section (90). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An endotracheal tube apparatus (10) which can efficiently impart air to the lungs of a human or animal while preventing the harmful build up of mucus deposits on critical parts of the apparatus. This endotracheal tube apparatus features an endotracheal tube (12) and a catheter (14) which are together inserted into the trachea (16) of a human or animal to a point slightly above the carina (28) of the lungs. Humidified air entrained with water or saline droplets from reservoir (56) is pumped into and through the catheter. The catheter features a reverse thrust catheter (RTC) tip (60, 62, 64, 80) at its distal end (24) which reverses the direction of humidified air flow away from the lungs. The RTC tip serves to protect the lungs from accumulation of water or saline droplets while the water or saline droplets continually clean both the catheter and endotracheal tube by dissolving and expelling any mucus which might otherwise accumulate.
