Patent EP-1317932-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KOJI M
IPC: B65B55/16
Filed: 2001-05-30
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of sterilizing
fungi and bacteria in a spore state for sterilizing fungi and
bacteria in a spore state and a sterilizer thereof. In
particular, the invention is directed to a method of sterilizing
sterilization targets adhering onto target-adhering things such
as containers, packing materials, conveying tools, etc. or
sterilization targets contained in target-containing things such
as liquid, air, raw materials, etc. and also a sterilizing
device thereof. 
     Some of fungi and bacteria in a spore state are strong
to ultraviolet rays, and some of them are strong to heat. So,
both the fungi and so on which are strong to ultraviolet rays
and those which are strong to heat can be effectively sterilized
by performing successively the sterilization by UV radiation and
heat. 
     Sterilization is performed by irradiating ultraviolet
rays over sterilization targets like fungi and bacteria in a
spore state adhering onto the target-adhering things such as
containers, packing materials, etc. to hurt the sterilization
targets and then heating them for sterilization.

Abstract: In a mobile access network using packet transmission such as a UMTS (Universal Mobile Telephone System), a mobile station MS has a plurality of active soft handover connections (macrodiversity) to the network, each having a separate path from the mobile to a splitting/recombination node (RNC). Each path consists of a radio channel to a base station and a transport channel from the base station to the RNC. The quality of each radio channel is measured at the base station and a higher priority is given to connections having higher quality radio channels. Packets are marked according to the priority assigned to the channel via which they travel. Buffer management is effected in all nodes through which the packets travel to ensure that a lower packet loss ratio is experienced by higher priority packets.

Abstract: A composite material consists of outer layers of fibrous (5) non-wovens and a central reinforcing layer derived from thermoplastic film. The reinforcing layer forms a regular repeated pattern, e.g. spaced parallel strips (2). The non-woven is bonded thermally to parts of the film, but there is no bond in regions where the film has been torn. An Independent claim is also included for the process of making the composite by first laying down alternate layers of non-woven and continuous film. The film and non-woven are bonded locally in a regular pattern and the assembly is heated to shrink the film so that the non-woven buckles into waves. The material is then stretched to smooth out the non-woven while at the same time tearing the film where it is not bonded to the non-woven. Specifically claimed are applications in disposable operating gowns, hygiene or medical wrapping, nappies and sanitary towels.

Abstract: A light-sensitive silver-halide color photothermographic element
comprises a typically magenta dye-forming pyrazolone coupler in the cyan record
by rendering the hue of the resultant dye a cyan hue. The use of certain para-phenylenediamine
developers, for example, containing a substituent group in both
the 2- and 6-positions (ortho, ortho') relative to the coupling nitrogen, along with
selected magenta dye-forming couplers, when oxidized, yield cyan dyes with
certain couplers, resulting in the superior non-hue characteristics of magenta
couplers in the cyan layer. By means of the present invention, light sensitive color
photothermographic elements can form image dye records of consistent density
forming ability and consistent stability in all three color records. Also disclosed is
a method of processing such a color photographic element.
