Abstract: A container such as, for example, a disposable carton or package, for use in microwave oven heating, cooking or baking of material (e.g., food) disposed in the container or in the package. Such a container may comprise, in combination, substantially microwave transparent wall portions, and at least one wall zone having a microwave field modifying coating thereon which is disposed to form an array of discrete, electrically conductive pattern elements. Preferably, the microwave field modifying coating material is pattern applied by printing; and, most preferably, by gravure printing. Different wall zones of the container may have the same or different microwave field modifying coating materials applied thereto in different patterns or arrays. Different patterns or arrays may be configured and coated to achieve different combinations of microwave reflectance, absorbance, and transmittance properties from zone to zone to achieve the desired degree of uniformity or asymmetry of the microwave field in a microwave oven to achieve desired heating, cooking, or baking for various contents of the container.

Abstract: Apparatus (100) for a dynamic thermal-mechanical material testing system that not only self-resistively heats and deforms a specimen (170), both under controlled conditions, but also substantially reduces adverse affects in specimen performance, such as magnetically induced motion and non-uniform specimen heating, that would otherwise result from magnetic fields which impinge upon the specimen and are caused by high heating currents flowing in the apparatus. This reduction is achieved by spatially locating high current carrying conductors (102, 102') used in the apparatus such that these conductors collectively generate substantially balanced, i.e. substantially equal, and opposite magnetic fields (431, 433) that effectively cancel each other out in a volumetric region in the apparatus which contains the specimen and particularly its work zone.

Abstract: An elongated sanitary napkin (10) has deflectable longitudinal side edges (34,36) formed by an edge or peripheral seal (28) along the opposite sides of an absorbent (18). A garment attachment panel (14,16) is secured to the underside of each side edge. A fixed portion (50) of the panel (14) is bonded flat against the side edge so that a free portion (52) of the panel (14), extending from the fixed portion (50), is directed inward and downward. During use, the panels (14,16) are fastened together beneath an undergarment crotch portion by hook (58) and loop (60) type fastener. Fastener (58,60) and panels (14,16) are sized so that when fastened the panels (14,16) exert a pull on the side edges, controlling their deflection and, for example, preventing them from folding in over the absorbent (18).

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un système de filtre pour air comprimé, qui se compose d'un premier filtre et d'un second filtre. Dans ce système, les variations de performances du premier filtre sont éliminées, le remplacement périodique du premier filtre n'est pas rendu nécessaire et les coûts du premier filtre sont avantageusement réduits. Les fines particules liquéfiées et les fines particules solides qui sont contenues dans l'air comprimé sont séparées de cet air grâce à l'utilisation du premier filtre (32), alors qu'on élimine ou fait disparaître les fines particules liquéfiées et les fines particules solides qui restent dans l'air comprimé en utilisant le second filtre (34), comme le premier filtre (32). On utilise un déflecteur (68), le long de l'axe duquel sont formées des ailettes hélicoïdales pour faire tourbillonner l'air et qui est conçu pour que sa direction axiale coïncide avec la direction d'écoulement de l'air, pour que l'air comprimé soit également amené à tourbillonner, de sorte que les fines particules liquéfiées et les fines particules solides puissent être séparées par l'effet de séparation centrifuge.

Abstract: A mass flowmeter has a flow tube inserted within the confines of a conduit containing a material flow. Mass flow information is derived for the material flow within the conduit by generating mass flow information for the material flowing within the smaller flow tube positioned within the conduit and then by adjusting the calculations for the flow tube to represent mass flow information for the conduit. In accordance with a first embodiment of the invention, a pressurized cover is positioned around the flow tube to isolate the exterior surface of the flow tube from the material in the conduit. The space between the exterior of the flow tube and the cover is pressurized to a pressure equal to that of the material in the conduit. Both sides of the flow tube walls are at the same pressure so that a flow tube comprised of thinner and more flexible material may be used. In accordance with a second embodiment of the invention, the cover is not used and the flow tube is inserted directly into the conduit and the exterior walls of the flow tube are in contact with the material within the conduit. This embodiment is advantageous in applications in which the conduit material is of low viscosity. The embodiment with the pressurized cover is ideally suited for use in applications with heavy viscosity material.
