Abstract: Hand drying apparatus (10) has a casing (12), a cavity (30) formed in the casing (12) for receiving for receiving a user's hands, a fan (40) located in the casing (12) and capable of creating an airflow, and a plurality of openings (60, 62) communicating with the fan (40) and arranged to direct an airflow transversely across the cavity (30). The cavity (30) has an entrance (32) delimited by a front edge (32a) and a rear edge (32b) in which the openings (60, 62) are located. The shape of the front and rear edges (32a, 32b) is such that, when in use the user's hands are introduced to the cavity (30), the distance between the user's hands and the nearest opening (60, 62) is substantially uniform. Alternatively, one of the edges (32a) is substantially straight and the other of the said edges (32b) is curved so that the distance between the said edges (32a, 32b) varies along the length of the cavity entrance (32). These arrangements enhance the drying efficiency of the dryer.

Title: Method for measuring a medium flowing in a pipeline and measurement system therefor
Inventor: DRAHM WOLFGANG
IPC: G01F1/84
Filed: 2006-09-07
Granted: 2012-07-10
Abstract: For measuring the medium flows through at least one inline measuring device measuring tube joined into the course of a pipeline. Using an inline measuring device sensor arrangement arranged on the measuring tube and reacting to changes of the at least one parameter of the medium, at least one measurement signal, influenced by at least one physical parameter of the medium in the measuring tube, is produced. Additionally, pressures effective in the medium are registered, to determine a pressure difference existing in the flowing medium. Based on the pressure difference currently determined and a transfer function, measured values representing the at least one parameter are produced, where the transfer function determines how the measured values of the first kind are generated under application of the pressure difference currently determined. Based on the measurement signal of the sensor arrangement, the transfer function is adapted to the medium to be measured.
