Abstract: This is a container (100) for the protection of an object during shipping. It is foldable (preferably from a single sheet (102)) and forms a platform (116) for supporting the object, which platform is separated from the exterior wall (106, 108) of the container by the use of at least one spacer panel (110) attached to the edge of the support platform. The object is held firmly against the support platform in such a way that it too is spaced away from the container wall. Although the disclosed container may have open ends, it desirably has ends completing the enclosure that also fold from the beginning sheet.

Abstract: The protective covering layer, for printed paper materials, is applied directly to the printed paper by a screen roller where the paper passes round part of the screen roller circumference. The screen roller rotates against the direction of paper travel. The protective layer is a varnish formula or a varnish dispersion, applied by the screen roller as a 10-30% emulsion and preferably 15-25%. The layer is applied inline, in a rotary offset printing process, after the ink has cooled. The paper is semi-matte to matte coated, and especially matte coated paper. The screen roller is used with a chamber doctor. The screen roller is coated with a ceramic material and has a laser-engraved screen structure. The screen pockets are in a layout of 120-180 lines/cm and especially 140-160 lines/cm, in a honeycomb pattern. The screen angle is 45-60 degrees . The screen roller has a diameter of 180-220 cm and especially 190-210 cm. The paper passes round the screen roller circumference by 3-25 degrees and especially 6-18 degrees . The screen roller counter speed is 30-100% and especially 80-100% of the printed paper speed. Directly after the application of the varnish coating, the paper is wetted to bring its residual moisture content to the required level for further processing. An Independent claim is included for an apparatus using a screen roller (12) with a ceramic cladding and a laser-engraved screen surface structure. The paper guide rollers (14, 15) are positioned to press the paper web (3) against a part (19) of the mantle (17) of the screen roller (12) on its movement path. Preferred Features: The doctor is a chamber doctor unit (13) which holds the varnish. When using a number of paper web guide rollers (14, 15), at least one can be shifted at right angles to its rotary axis. One guide roller (14, 15) can be an additional protective varnish applicator, identical to the screen roller (12).

Abstract: A cellular satellite mobile telephone system operates with a TDMA frame
structure which requires Z-arc path delay and frequency offsets to achieve
correct frame timing and frequency synchronisation. Timing Z-arcs are
contours of constant path delay on the Earth's surface for signals from an
orbiting satellite (3a, 3b) and can be used as reference points for defining a
cell. Selection of the correct cell for a mobile user terminal (4a, 4b) seeking to
access the system is based on the position of the terminal with respect to a
particular Z-arc within a cell, to ensure that allocation of radio resources to
user terminals will not violate the TDMA timing constraints. Frequency Z-arcs
can be used in a similar way as reference points to define a cell.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil pour la production d'engrais liquide à partir de fumier. Il comporte au moins un réservoir rempli d'eau, une cage dotée d'un tuyau perforé disposé près du plancher de celle-ci et une pompe reliée au tuyau pour assurer l'apport d'air sous pression par les perforations du tuyau. Lorsque l'appareil est utilisé, la cage est chargée de fumier d'alimentation et est ensuite immergée dans le réservoir d'eau. L'air sous pression agite et dégaze le fumier, ce qui provoque une décomposition aérobie de ce dernier. Les nutriments contenus dans le fumier sont ainsi extraits de celui-ci et mélangés avec l'eau de sorte qu'un engrais liquide soit formé. Un dispositif de fertigation peut être prévu pour amener l'engrais liquide du réservoir directement aux plantes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for producing bio-gas in a fermentation reactor (2) which is substantially devoid of H2S. According to the invention, a substantial amount of the overall contents of the fermentation reactor passes through an area (5) which is impinged upon by a medium containing an electron acceptor, especially air or a gas or gas mixture containing oxygen. The contact time between the medium containing the electron acceptor and the fermentation medium in said area (5) is regulated in such a way that the formation of H2S in the fermentation medium is suppressed to such an extent that no substantial proportion of H2S can be found in the bio-gas. The area (5) is thus configured as a guide tube which is vertically and centrally arranged in the fermentation reactor. Preferably, the bio-gas (6) acts as a propellant and is fed back into the guide tube in order to circulate the contents of the fermentation reactor in said guide tube.
