Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling an electromagnetic actuator for activating a gas exchange valve on a reciprocating internal combustion engine, said gas exchange valve having two electromagnets that are set apart from each other and between which an armature that acts on the gas exchange valve against the force of at least one return spring is guided in such a way that it can move back and forth between the pole faces of the two electromagnets. The electromagnets are alternately subjected to a receiving current by means of a control unit and the movement of the armature on its path from one pole face to the other is detected by means of a sensor unit. Actual values relating to the movement of the armature are detected by the sensor unit in a first phase (I) beginning with the start of the release of the armature from the pole face of the holding electromagnet; the receiving electromagnet is controlled by the control unit in terms of the supply of current, according to the detected actual values relating to the movement of the armature, in a second phase (II), in such a way that the armature moves at a predetermined speed and with an acceleration around zero, within a predetermined range away from the pole face of the receiving electromagnet; and in a third phase (III), the supply of current of the receiving electromagnet is influenced in such a way that the armature meets the pole face at a predetermined minimum speed.

Abstract: An essential oil product obtained from the Indian mulberry (Morinda citrifolia) plant and the process of extracting and purifying the oil is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the seeds from the Indian mulberry fruit are dried, preferably to a moisture content less than 10%. The seeds are ground or shredded to facilitate the removal of natural occurring oil. The shredded or ground flakes are pressed to expel Morinda citrifolia oil. The remaining seed cake is then mixed with a food grade, non-polar extraction solvent such as hexane. The mixture is heated for a sufficient length of time to complete the extraction process. The extraction solvent is then evaporated from the mixture leaving the Morinda citrifolia oil. The oil is further refined, bleached, dried, and deodorized to remove free fatty acids and other unwanted components. An antioxidant can optionally be added to stabilize the oil for further processing or packaging.

Abstract: A water flow guide stationarily mounted in the water box of an underwater pelletizer to selectively direct the pressurized water flowing through the water box in order to more efficiently cool and rigidify the extruded polymer strands and enable the rotary cutter blades to more effectively shear the strands into pellets and to convey the sheared pellets away from the die face and rotary cutter blades of the pelletizer to the water box outlet. The water flow guide provides an accurately guided pressurized water flow which enables pelletization of polymers of various diameters and a wide range of specific gravity and rheological characteristics.

Abstract: Thermoforming plastic film to produce containers with a hollow base and a double walled foot, involves turning the base inwards to form a foot and ejecting by pushing the foot over a compression edge. A plastic film section (3) is clamped between upper and lower (11) tool halves and a container formed by pressure difference. The container base (46) is then turned inwards by a sealing edge (35) which presses the base against a compression edge (31) of a film cutting punch (22) to form a foot (30). When the sealing edge is retracted a free space (B) remains between the inner face of the foot and outer face of the tool base (33). The container is then ejected from the lower part of the tool by pushing the foot over the compression edge. An Independent claim is made for a tool for thermoforming containers in plastic film which comprises an upper part (10) with compressed air feed; a lower part (11) with a cutting punch (22) having an annular compression edge; a moving tool base (33) and a sealing edge (35) which surrounds the compression edge and acts in conjunction with it; a drive unit (51) for actuating sealing edge movement.

Abstract: The inventive method enables existing contracts between a user and a telecommunications network operator to be enlarged by a user dialling into a customer subscription and administration server (CSAS). The access procedure of the existing contract relation is used for authenticating the user. The subscription of new contract components, such as clearing of a new terminal for instance that has been purchased by dispatch is carried out in a menu-controlled manner and by means of instruction texts and tactile inputs. The aim of the invention is to authenticate the calling user, authorise the additional contracts, changes and services which can be subscribed and administered by the corresponding user and store newly subscribed or changed contracts and services. The CSAS is connected to the corresponding data bases of the telecommunications network, such as CCBS, CDB and HLR. IP dialling options are optionally provided by means of the telecommunications network and/or the public internet. The inventive method, inter alia and especially, optimises procurement of a second or third appliance for family members or to be used as a pool appliance in small enterprises. Personal appearance at the POS involving passport control and the complicated procedures for setting up and verifying a contract can thus be avoided in the future.

Abstract: A Photographic Server System is described that implements a methodology for providing access to photographic images. The PhotoServer includes a Photographic Server a User Data Manager, a Device Profile Manager, a Photo Translator, a Photo Cache, and a Photo Storage (module). First, the method processes the received input request based on a user identifier (user ID) or a photograph identifier (photo ID) for the photos that are of interest. Next, the method constructs an information record describing the target device's capabilities. This information indicates to the system when transformation (if any) is required for translating the original photo into a format suitable for the target device. If the photo (translated for the target device) already exists in the Photo Cache, the method may simply return that to the target device. However, if it is not in the cache, then the method passes the photo ID and the target device parameters onto the Photo Translator, which transforms the photo from its original format into the format that is desired for the target device (based on target device capabilities). This translated version of the photo is now returned to the target device.

Abstract: A structure with an optically active layer embedded in a Si wafer, such that the outermost epitaxial layer exposed to the CMOS processing equipment is always Si or another CMOS-compatible material such as SiO2. Since the optoelectronic layer is completely surrounded by Si, the wafer is fully compatible with standard Si CMOS manufacturing. For wavelengths of light longer than the bandgap of Si (1.1 mum), Si is completely transparent and therefore optical signals can be transmitted between the embedded optoelectronic layer and an external waveguide using either normal incidence (through the Si substrate or top Si cap layer) or in-plane incidence (edge coupling).
