Said reactor further comprises at least one precipitating device for collecting and removing the reaction product from the reaction surface. The carrier element is particularly characterized in that it is made of two components a) and b) disposed horizontally one over the other and having sub-stantially identical surface area dimensions. Said two components are interlocked closely together during the operating time, and the lower component a) comprises at least one flat milled and substantially uninterrupted groove in the top side thereof facing the interior of the carrier element for receiving, routing, and conducting a heat transfer fluid. Said component further comprises at least two holes for acting on and conducting the heat transfer fluid, wherein at least one profile seal circularly encompassing the outer surface area is disposed between the component a) and the component b). The two components a) and b) are connected overall reversibly to each other. The specific features named provide a simply designed reactor having advantageous maintenance, widely applicable, and thereby allowing targeted control of the chemical reaction on the rotating surface thereof.

Title: Chitosan-coated hydrophobic glass and method of making
Inventor: BRISTOW JOSEPH
IPC: C03C17/00
Filed: 2009-03-18
Abstract: Glass surfaces, for example, windshield surfaces, have a durable hydrophobic coating applied thereto. The glass surface is first treated by any suitable method to enhance the ability of a chitosan polymer coating to durably or substantially permanently adhere thereto. Once the chitosan coating has been applied to the glass surface, the normally hydrophilic chitosan coating is rendered hydrophobic by suitable treatment, for example, by a combination of enzymatic and chemical treatments. Alternatively, the chitosan may be rendered hydrophobic prior to coating it on the glass surface, but that is a less preferred technique. The method of the invention provides a glass article having a hydrophobic surface.

Patent CA-2770139-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CASTANEDA ANTHONY T
IPC: G05D1/02
Filed: 2009-12-30
Abstract: A materials handling vehicle (10) automatically applies a steer correction maneuver if an object (172) is detected in a steer bumper zone (132) in front of the vehicle. A controller detects whether an object is in front of the materials handling vehicle and automatically determines whether a steer correction maneuver should be to the right or left of the traveling direction of the materials handling vehicle. The materials handling vehicle automatically steer corrects the vehicle, e.g., at a determined steer angle that is opposite the direction to the detected position of the object, and accumulates the distance traveled by vehicle while steer correction is being performed. The vehicle then automatically counter steers the vehicle, e.g., by a determined steer amount, in the opposite direction as the steer correction for a percentage of accumulated steer distance traveled. After performing the counter steer maneuver, the vehicle may, for example, resume a substantially straight heading.
