Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a bowl (1) with a hermetically closed lid (2), used for containing a piece of cake (3). Pegs (10) are provided underneath the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1). Said pegs (10) protrude from the bottom (1b) to such an extent that they can be easily cut-off. By cutting-off the bearing surface (12) of the pegs the interior (11) of the bowl and the exterior of the bowl (1) communicate directly, through the bottom (1b) of the bowl via the cavity (13). This means that, in the case of a piece of cake, e.g. a piece of cream cake, placed in said bowl (3), air under atmospheric pressure reaches the space between the piece of cake and the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1). This makes it easier to detach the piece of cake from the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1) and therefore, no parting agent needs to be applied between the piece of cake and the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une structure de stockage doté d'une flèche pour transfert de fluides assurant le transfert de fluides cryogéniques tels que du gaz naturel liquéfié (G.N.L.) entre une première structure de stockage et un navire. La flèche comporte deux bras qui sont reliés rotatif via une rotule au niveau de leurs premières extrémités. Selon un mode de réalisation, un conduit pour gaz naturel liquéfié est logé dans un premier et un second bras qui constituent autour dudit conduit une gaine imperméable aux gaz. Selon la présente invention, la flèche de transfert forme une système de confinement redondant dans lequel le conduit pour G.N.L. est logé dans une flèche structurellement robuste et auto-porteuse qui assure le confinement du gaz en cas de fuite du conduit interne. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, la flèche de transfert compte un total de sept rotules qui rendent possibles des mouvements de rotation dans toutes les directions lorsque le vaisseau est arrimé au quai et est exposé à des mouvements de roulis, de tangage, à des embardées, à des balancements et de brusques poussées. Le premier bras peut être suspendu à la structure de stockage selon un axe généralement vertical, alors que le second bras s'étend entre la première extrémité du premier bras et le navire selon un axe généralement horizontal. On dispose ainsi d'une construction autoporteuse fiable sans recours à des contrepoids ou à des haubans de réglage de tension pour le bras vertical. Pour des raisons d'économie de fabrication, les joints tournants seront de préférence de construction analogue. Selon un autre mode de réalisation le conduit interne pour G.N.L. comporte des moyens de confinement des fuites et des parois qui peuvent se déformer sous l'effet de la dilatation thermique.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for sampling image data (620) and mapping the samples (622, 623, 624) to pixel sub-components (632, 633, 634) which form a pixel element of an LCD display so that each pixel sub-component (632, 633, 634) has a different portion of the image (620) mapped thereto. The methods can be used with conventional color LCD displays that include pixels consisting of three non-overlapping red, green and blue rectangular pixel sub-elements or sub-components. The pixel sub-components (632, 633, 634) can be arranged on the display device to form horizontal or vertical stripes of individual colors. The separately-controllable nature of individual RGB pixel sub-components is used to effectively increase a screen's resolution in the dimension perpendicular to the dimension in which the screen is striped. A scan conversion process maps samples (622, 623, 624) of the image data (620) to individual pixel sub-components, resulting in each of the pixel sub-components representing a different portion of the image. The color values are independently generated for each of the red, green, and blue pixel sub-components based on different portions of the image (620), rather than the color values for the entire pixel being generated based on a single sample or the same portion of the image.

In said formula M is an alkali metal and n is a number between 0.5 and 4. The hydrogel obtained in this way is then dried at an elevated temperature. The invention also relates to a method for producing said hydrogels and to their use for absorbing aqueous fluids.

Abstract: The invention relates to a suction line (9) which is intended for use notably in an internal combustion engine and comprises a driven control element (15). The drive mechanism for the control element (15) is in turn driven by a fluidic, notably hydraulic, energy source which in comparison with the vacuum arising in the suction line presents a high energy density, so that the quantity of both material and space required for the drive mechanism can be kept low. To this end the drive mechanism can, for example, be connected to the power steering pump (26) of the motor vehicle. This results in virtually no extra cost as the components for providing energy in any event have to be accommodated in the engine compartment, which makes the proposed solution even more economical. In case of malfunction of the power steering pump (26) engine power is reduced provided a return spring (29) in the drive mechanism ensures the resetting of the control element.
