Title: Aerosol valve assembly
Inventor: BAYER CHRISTIAN
IPC: B65D83/16
Filed: 2002-11-26
Abstract: An aerosol valve assembly (10), lacking a return spring and dip tube, has a valve housing (30) and a valve body (40) with a lower portion (42), an intermediate portion (43) and a valve stem (41). A gasket (60) in a stem groove (45) seals one or more orifice openings (47) into the valve stem except on valve actuation. The valve housing has a lower wall (32) with a central opening (33) for the valve body lower portion (42) to enter to stabilize the vertically acting valve; and, a plurality of product delivery openings (33) positioned about the central opening. A stroke-limiting surface (53) on the valve body prevents the gasket from completely escaping the stem groove on valve actuation. When valve actuation ceases, the valve is returned to closed position by the gasket acting against the stem groove, and the product acting against the valve body bottom portion (42) and the lower surface of the valve body intermediate portion (43).

Title: Method and apparatus for making miniature tablets
Inventor: BUBB GARY
IPC: A61K9/20
Filed: 2003-07-21
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and system for forming a miniature tablet (12) using a predetermined compression force in a rotary tablet press (10). The predetermined compression force can be in the range of about 50 to about 2,000 Newtons, preferably less than about 500 Newtons. In one embodiment, the predetermined compression force is applied using an adjustable ramp (86) for moving a lower punch (28) upwardly towards a downwardly moving upper punch (68). The height of the adjustable ramp (86) is accurately controlled to precisely provide the predetermined compression force for forming the miniature tablet (12). It has also been found that breakage of punch stems (38, 80) formed on the lower punch can be reduced by providing a reinforced portion of the punch stem (38) formed on the lower punch (28) can be reduced by providing a reinforced portion of the punch stem below the slender portion (36) of the punch stem (38) which enters a bore (44) of the die (40) wherein the miniature tablet (12) is formed.

Title: A method and a fibre distributor for air-laying fibres
Inventor: ANDERSEN JENS OLE BROECHNER
IPC: D04H1/425
Filed: 2004-05-27
Abstract: A fibre distributor is used for air-laying fibres (4;6) on an endless, air pervious forming wire (9) in a plant for producing non-woven webs. The fibre distributor comprises a forming head (2) with a perforated bottom (7) and ro ws (14) of rotateable wings (15) situated at a distance above the bottom (7) fo r during production sweeping supplied fibres (4;6) along the rows (14) of wing s (15) in an air stream before they successively leave the forming head (2) through the openings (8) of the perforated bottom (7) for being deposited in a layer (16) on the upper part (17) of the forming wire (2). The fibres (4;6) are, while being swept along in this way, inclined to form nits (20;21). The wings (15) are therefore adapted to rotate with an optimal speed of rotation in an interval where the fibre's (4;6) inclination to form nits (20;21) changes from being lesser to being larger when the rotation speed of the win gs (15) grows. By means of the method and the fibre distributor according to th e invention it is possible to produce non-woven webs with a minimum of fibre loss in form of nits and at the same time also with an extremely high rate o f production.

Patent CA-2528769-A1 (CA)
Inventor: STRITTMATTER MICHAEL
IPC: G08C19/00
Filed: 2005-12-02
Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the transmission of protection commands to a remote tripping device over an analog signal link with a limited number of tones or frequencies (F1, F2, F3, F4). Different operating principles involve a number of frequency detectors (41, 42, 43, 44) depending on the number of commands (A, B, C, D) that are to be transmitted either alone or in combination. In order to transmit a maximum number of protection commands with a minimum number of tones/detectors, two of the abovementioned distinct operating principles are assigned at least one common tone. A prioritizing mechanism is established for preferring certain related protection commands belonging to a common application. Upon reception of a signal coding a combination of protection commands, it is possible to detect individual protection commands in accordance with different minimum safety and/or security values. A protection command can thus always be transmitted optimally for the intended application, i.e.  the parameters of safety and/or security, dependability and transmission time are individually configurable for the protection command.
