Title: Method for producing three-dimensional fine structures
Inventor: HELL STEFAN
IPC: G01N21/64
Filed: 2006-03-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing three-dimensional fine structures involving the following steps: adding a luminophore to a material (3); forming a three-dimensional fine structure from the material (3), and; conducting fluorescence microscopic examination in order to determine whether the desired fine-structure exists during which luminescent light (10) emitted by the luminophore is measured. The luminophore has two states, which differ with regard to their luminescence properties, and it is reversible but can be, in essence, entirely converted from one state and into the other state by an optical signal (12). The luminophore is, during microscopic examination for determining whether the desired fine structure exists, converted, at measuring points of respective interest, by a transition, which is driven till saturation, between its two states into an inactive state in which it does not emit luminescent light.

Title: Structured food having a meat-like structure and method for the production thereof
Inventor: REIMERDES ERNST HARTMUT
IPC: A23L35/00
Filed: 2006-12-21
Abstract: The invention relates to structured foods which are, generally, products which are produced by forming fruit, cereal, meat or fish concentrates. In order to obtain a meat-like product, meat-like structured proteins are used. The creation of a meat-like structure having a bite and a chewing structure typical to that of meat is crucial for consumer acceptance. The aim of the invention is to produce novel structured foods and to provide a meat-like product wherein the chewing structure and also other properties correspond to those of meat. This is achieved as the structured food consists of a foamed milk-protein solution which is stabilised by denaturation, and wherein food components are incorporated by shearing open gas bubbles of the foam and are fixed by a binding agent.

Title: Stop damper
Inventor: BANTLE ULRICH
IPC: F16F9/02
Filed: 2006-10-26
Abstract: A stop damper including a damper member with a cylinder. A piston is moveably guided inside a receiving space of the cylinder. The cylinder has a sliding surface against which the piston rests with a sealing element. A braking force that acts upon the piston can be applied using the air pressure generated in the receiving space because the piston is displaced, the receiving space being connected to the environment via an air-conducting connection to reduce the air pressure. In order to improve the braking effect of the sliding element, the sealing element of the piston and the sliding surface of the cylinder can contact each other in at least some areas via a defined rubbing surface geometry, the peak-to-valley height of the sliding surface being <1 mum and the peak-to-valley height of the facing surface of the sealing element being =4.5 mum in at least some areas.

Abstract: A railway vehicle having an impact energy absorbing device capable of avoiding coincidence between starts of deformation of the impact energy absorbing device in the event of collision to reduce the pressure collapse peak load and, hence, loads on the vehicle body, passengers and so on in the case of application to a transportation apparatus such as a train in particular. The impact energy absorbing device has a plurality of energy absorbing members 11 and 12 which pressure-collapse in the event of collision to absorb impact energy, and which are mounted in a predetermined region in the longitudinal direction of the body of a vehicle while being spaced apart in the car body width direction. Front ends of the energy absorbing members 11 and 12 in the collision direction are shifted to a plurality of positions (jutted out by ΔL). In this impact energy absorbing device, the energy absorbing members 11 and the like are brought into collision with time differences to shift the energy absorbing member collapse times to set time differences between the occurrences of pressure-collapse initial peaks in the energy absorbing members, thereby reducing the peak load as a whole. Full buckling of the energy absorbing members can be prevented by guiding outer portions of the energy absorbing members with a slide guide or disposing buckling preventing members 16 and 17 in spaces 14 and 15 in the energy absorbing members.
