Abstract: A pair of ice bodies each have a planar surface which are warmed to melt the surface. Then at least one of the surfaces is provided with a cavity engendered by the application of a dimension controlled heat source, suitably by engraving with a heated relief formed die-like tool having a metal engraving element of a given design. The engraving element is warmed above the ice melting temperature and brought into contact with a planar surface of the surface of the ice body so that the element melts away portions of the ice body in the area of the element and the melt water is simultaneously removed by gravity, a vacuum or by a blast of cold air. When the desired engraving depth has been attained, the planar surfaces of the ice bodies to be mated are wetted by warming and are pressed together and if needed, cooled to freeze the interface producing an assembled ice body with an internal engraving and a transparent seam. Both bodies can be engraved in mirror image fashion with the engravings aligned and mated to form a single engraving in the composite body. The engraving brilliantly stands out from its surroundings in a drink medium because of the different light refractive indices.

Abstract: A method for making a wound field for an electric motor, generator or alternator includes the steps continuously winding an insulated conductor into a coil, having a first plurality of windings wound in a first direction, and a second plurality of windings wound in a second direction opposite the first direction; flattening the coil into a two-layered flat web, and rolling the flat, two-layered web end-to-end into a cylindrical configuration. In one embodiment, a multiphase wound field can be made by winding a plurality of insulated conductors about a common axis to form a group of adjacent coil units. After the first group of coil units is wound, second and subsequent groups can be wound, in alternating directions of winding with respect to the first group, to form an elongate winding assembly. The entire assembly, is then flattened and rolled end-to-end. This create a wound field that is ready for insertion into a magnetic return path of an electric motor which has a higher density than was previously possible. As a result, current loss due to hysteresis and other features is materially reduced.

Abstract: A pressure cooker is proposed, whose lid (2) has a hood (6) which, for residual-pressure reduction and subsequent opening avoiding a rotational movement, is to be displaced with respect to the pot (1) solely in the vertical direction. In this arrangement, tongues (36), projecting downwards between hood rim and pot rim (5), ensure, in cooperation with the guide slots (37) in the clamps (10) holding pot (1) and lid (2) together, radial opening and closing displacements of the clamps (10). A centring ring (8), arranged in the hood (6) and reaching into the pot (1), facilitates the mounting of the lid onto the pot. The centring ring (8) carries the sealing ring (7) and the tongues (36) and is stressed, by means of springs (30) resting on the hood (6), in the direction leading away from the hood. Hood (6) and centring ring (8) are guided on one another and can be locked to one another in the open position by means of elements (27, 29) engaging with one another. On closing the pressure cooker, the locking mechanism is released, and the springs effect both the closing displacement of the clamps and the positioning of the sealing ring (7) with respect to its sealing-off faces on hood and pot. <IMAGE>

Abstract: 2.1 The invention has the object of increasing the loading, with the material to be comminuted, of the gas or steam jets used for milling in a fluidised bed consisting of granular material, in order thus to obtain a better utilisation of the energy of the jets. 2.2 This is achieved in that, when the jet emerges from a nozzle, in the peripheral region of the nozzle cross-section, the size of the jet impulse changes at least twice between a minimum and a maximum value and, in the core region of the nozzle cross-section, it is equal to or smaller than the minimum values of the peripheral region.   2.3 In the regions having a low jet impulse directly after emergence of the jet from the nozzle, a negative pressure gradient forms, in this arrangement, from the environment to the core region of the jet, so that flow channels result transversely to the flow direction of the jet, through which flow channels the particles of ground material are sucked in as far as the centre of the jet and are accelerated here, in the further course of the jet, to the impact speed necessary for their comminution. <IMAGE>
