Patent EP-1292402-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NISSINEN JARMO
IPC: B08B9/02
Filed: 2001-06-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and system for cleaning beverage tubes, in which the set of beverage tubes includes a set of tubes (17, 26) from a tank (30) to one or several dispensing devices (18), and possible cooling, amount calculating, or other devices (11, 12, 15, 16). The set of distribution tubes is cleaned in the following stages: - cleaning fluid is fed into the tubes from one end and the liquid already in the tubes is drained out of the opposite end, - the cleaning fluid is allowed to act for a set time, - the cleaning fluid is flushed out with flushing fluid by feeding in a corresponding manner in to the tubes and draining the cleaning fluid out, - the line is filled with the beverage being dispensed at the same time draining the flushing fluid out of the line. At each stage, each fluid is identified by means of its electrical properties from the end of the tubes opposite to the feed, and this feed is terminated by set criteria, after which the process goes on to the next stage.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un ensemble permettant d'enduire une bande (1) de papier ou de carton avec un agent de traitement par voie sèche. On applique l'agent au moins sur un côté de la bande en mouvement (1). L'agent renferme un liant susceptible de changer d'état au moins sous l'effet d'une température élevée. Une fois traitée, la bande (1) est soumise au moins à une température élevée rendant le liant déformable, puis la bande est soumise à une température moins élevée permettant la prise du liant, ce qui assure la liaison de cet agent sur la surface de la bande. La teneur de l'agent en matières solides n'est pas inférieure à 75 %, et de préférence pas à 90 %, moyennant quoi le séchage après traitement n'est pas indispensable.

Abstract: A duplication/delivery center DDS records contents C11 and C12
on a recording medium M in accordance with requests from content
providing apparatuses CP11 and CP12, duplicates the recording medium M,
and delivers the recording medium M to users. When doing so, parts of
the contents are encrypted. The content providing apparatuses CP11 and
CP12 request a content control apparatus CC1 to control the contents on
the recording media M. At the side of contents users, when a user sets a
recording medium M in a video game console GM and tries to use a
content that has been encrypted, the video game console GM requests, via a
mobile packet communication network MPN, the content control apparatus
CC1 to transmit a decryption key. The content control apparatus CC1
decides whether or not to transmit the decryption key based on the content
of the request received from the content providing apparatus.

Abstract: The present invention relates to processes of color data, and an object of the
present invention is to provide a color converter and color converting method, with a
color converting process for enhancing the saturation for color data, capable of
preventing the influences of noise components from being emphasized and also
preventing damaged color from occurring. 
     In order to achieve the object, multiplication coefficient calculation means (4)
calculates a multiplication coefficient based on characteristic information of first color
data which is a target of color conversion, and second color correction amount
calculation means (5) calculates a second color correction amount by multiplying a
first color correction amount by the multiplication coefficient obtained from first color
correction amount calculation means (1). Then, in color correction amount addition
means (2), the second color correction amount is added to the first color data, so that
second color data after the color conversion is obtained. Since the second color
correction amount is calculated on the basis of the first characteristic information, it is
possible to prevent the influences of noise components from being emphasized, and
also to prevent damaged color from occurring.

Abstract: To provide a bulb socket which can prevent a sealing member from coming off
a socket main body during the detachment of the bulb socket and cause the sealing
member to securely display its function in a mounted state. 
     A restricting projection 15 is continuously formed on an outer circumferential
surface 18 of a socket main body D over the entire circumference before an O-ring
14 fitted on the socket main body D. Thus, the restricting projection 15 can come
into contact with the O-ring 14 during the detachment of a bulb socket S, thereby
separating the O-ring 14 from a sealing surface 16a of an edge 16 of a mount hole
11. Further, the restricting projection 15 comes into contact with a contact surface
16b of the edge 16 during the mounting of the bulb socket S, thereby preventing the
bulb socket S from being pushed any further. This prevents the excessive squeezing
of the O-ring 14, which leads to a reduction in its sealing function.

Abstract: This is a straightforward device used to connect handles
to flat plates, which is simpler and easier to assemble
than regular versions. The plate has two small holes
positioned in diametrically opposite positions with
respect to the main central hole, and another pair of
small holes positioned around the centre hole, at a lower
level than the first holes and spaced from them. The
rotating part includes the formation of an end
cylindrical section, which is the continuation of an
intermediate cylindrical section that has a larger
diameter. The first section has a perimeter groove next
to its free end, that can house a retention setscrew when
connected to the flat plate's centre hole. The end
cylindrical section on the rotating part can have two
helicoidal springs connected, whose ends are housed in
the lower holes on the plate. A cover for both springs
has been contemplated, which has two snugs that fit to
the aforementioned small diametrically opposite holes.
