Abstract: An apparatus and method for testing the authenticity of bank notes are proposed. The apparatus includes a light source for emitting light suitable for exciting fluorescent light in a bank note to be checked, and a fluorescence detector for detecting the fluorescent light emitted by the bank note to be checked. According to the invention it is provided that the light source is a light-emitting diode and the light-emitting diode is formed to emit light containing ultraviolet light at least in a partial spectral region. This makes it possible in particular to obtain a compact structure of the apparatus. The method involves exciting and detecting fluorescent light in the bank note to be checked and comparing the detected fluorescent light with a predefined threshold value. According to the invention it is provided that the detected fluorescent light is reduced by the ambient light detected with the light source switched off. This permits the elimination of measuring inaccuracies at the same time as simple operation.

Abstract: A holder (10) for an apparel belt (50) which can be used as both a display holder and as a storage package. When used in either the display mode or the storage mode, the holder protects the belt from being scratched or otherwise physically damaged. The holder has a sleeve (12) with an opening (24) at one end thereof for receiving the strap of the belt, and a sleeve extension (14) attached to the open end of the sleeve which acts as a backdrop for the exposed portion of the belt when the holder is used in its display mode and acts as a cover for the buckle when the holder is used in its storage mode. In the display mode, the holder is hung on a merchandising display rack from an orifice (38) in the free end of the sleeve extension. The sleeve extension has a means for retaining the buckle and a portion of the belt strap outside the sleeve to expose that portion of the belt. In the storage position, the buckle end of the belt is detached from the retaining means (40) on the sleeve extension and the strap is more fully inserted into the sleeve.

Abstract: A process for the preparation of lower olefins from a heavy hydrocarbon feedstock by vaporizing said heavy hydrocarbon feedstock with steam in a nozzle wherein a two-phase mixture is passed through a device having a frusto-conically-shaped element which is capable of inducing a gentle swirl pattern to a liquid-containing stream, which device is connected to the feed inlet pipe of the mixing nozzle. This swirl-inducing device effects a 90° bending of the flow direction of the hydrocarbon feedstock while simultaneously effecting a swirl pattern of the liquid part thereof, thereby forcing the liquid against the wall of the feed inlet pipe extending downwardly to the mixing nozzle with such velocity component perpendicular to the tube's longitudinal axis to create an annular flow pattern as the mixture enters the nozzle and the vaporized hydrocarbon feedstock is subjected to a cracking treatment.
