Patent EP-0808641-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BYRAM DAVID C
IPC: A62B18/08
Filed: 1994-08-05
Abstract: A respirator (15) has a harness (10) that allows the respirator body (20) to be conveniently disposed beneath a wearer's chin when not in use. The harness (10) includes a substantially flat, flexible strap (14) and an element (12) that contains a curved elongated slot (16). The substantially flat, flexible strap (14) is threaded through the curved elongated slot (16). The curved configuration of the slot (16) causes the flat flexible strap (14) to be deformed to assume the curved configuration of the slot. This deformation of the strap (14) allows the strap (14) to frictionally engage element (12), and the frictional engagement allows the respirator body (20) to be incrementally withdrawn from the wearer's face so that it can be temporarily stored beneath the wearer's chin, and allows the respirator body (20) to be conveniently repositioned over the nose and mouth of the wearer by simply pulling on free ends (34) of each strap (14) and joining a buckle (32) behind the wearer's neck.

Abstract: A disposable absorbent article, such as a diaper. The disposable absorbent article
has a first topsheet with apertures large enough for low-viscosity fecal material to pass
through to a fecal material storage element. The fecal material storage element
immobilizes the fecal material in position for dewatering, so that the liquid components
of the fecal material are absorbed by the core and the solid components of the fecal
material are separated from the liquid components. This arrangement provides for easier
cleaning of the wearer when the soiled disposable absorbent article is removed.

Abstract: A rapid exchange catheter system has a long flexible inner catheter (1), a guide wire (3) and an outer flexible tube type catheter. The inner catheter has an inner diameter equal to the guide wire, one distant end and one close end. It extends from an inlet at the distant end to a side orientated opening (5) at the close end. The outer catheter (2) has a side orientated opening (6) for the guide wire (3). The inner catheter moves axially within the outer catheter and securing devices prevent the rotation of the catheters relative to each other. Therefore, the inner (5) and outer (6) openings stay aligned and relative axial displacement of the catheters is made easy.

Abstract: An individual position automatic doffing yarn processing machine (20), having a quality
monitoring arrangement (34) able to determine whether a package (15) produced on the
machine (20) is of reject or acceptable quality, has a package identification arrangement for
identifying the reject packages (15) and distinguishing those packages (15) from those of
acceptable quality. When a package (15) has been fully wound, the yarn (16) running onto
the package (15) is displaced from the traverse device (18) and is cut. In the case of a
package (15) of acceptable quality, the operation of the cutting device (29) is delayed relative
to that for reject quality packages (15), so that in the former case a larger central yam winding
or "belly-band" (35) is wound on the package (15) than in the case of reject packages (15).
The reject packages (15) with the large belly-band (35) can readily be segregated from the
acceptable packages (15).

Abstract: The invention relates to washing and detergent particulates and to several substances or starting materials treated for the preparation of these particulates. The invention provides for the manufacturing of washing and detergent agents of the type undergoing improved disintegration when they dissolve in an aqueous bath, even when they have a reduced surface area, especially a spherical form (e.g. pearls). The invention also provides an economical production method requiring no costly drying steps. According to the invention, these washing and detergent particulates and the substances or starting materials treated for their preparation must have an apparent density greater than 600 g/l. Moreover, these washing and detergent compounds must be produced by combination of washing and detergent mixtures and/or starting materials and must be formed simultaneously or in consecutive steps. For this purpose, the method involves preparing first a pre-mixture containing the individual starting materials and/or mixtures of several substances which are solid at ambient temperature and at a pressure of 1 bar, turning then this mixture into a granule with applied compression forces, before further possible processing or treatment. This pre-mixture is essentially anhydrous and a liquid forming additive, in the form of a polymer which has inflated in an essentially non aqueous solution, is used in the forming conditions, especially at ambient temperature and at a pressure of 1 bar.

A piston located within the chamber being limited to translational movement within the chamber. The piston having a top side facing the dispensing end of the housing forming a variable volume portion of the chamber for storing the product. The piston also having a threaded rod extending therefrom opposite the top side. An actuator having a threaded aperture therethrough that engages the interior surface at the actuating end of the housing is also provided. The threaded aperture is concentric in the actuator and the actuator is adapted to rotate with respect to the housing in only one direction. The threaded rod engages the threaded aperture such that advancement of the piston toward the dispensing end occurs when the actuator is rotated, thereby causing the product to be dispensed. An applicator can be attached to the dispensing end of the housing in fluid communication with the variable volume portion of the chamber wherein the product is dispensed through the applicator. The applicator comprises a ferrule and an application portion. The ferrule is attached to the dispensing end of the housing and the application portion has at least one orifice located therein. Several versions of the applicator are illustrated, including a fiber brush and a flocked application surface.

Abstract: Bei einer bekannten Brennkraftmaschine wird in aufeinander folgenden Arbeitstakten ein sauerstoffhaltiges Gemisch zunächst verdichtet und dadurch erhitzt sowie danach entzündet, worauf die Verbrennungsgase expandieren. Dabei wird ein Teil des eingesetzten Brennstoffs vor dem Einführen in den Prozeß zumindest auf seine Entzündungstemperatur erhitzt und dann in gasförmigem Zustand nach einem den Verbrennungsprozeß steuernden Gesetz in das sauerstoffhaltige Gemisch eingeblasen. Dieses Verfahren und eine entsprechend ausgebildete Brennkraftmaschine erfordern einen hohen Bauaufwand und sind somit in der Realisierung aufwendig, wobei die Zündsteuerung beziehungsweise Entzündung des Gemischs noch Schwankungen unterliegt. Erfindungsgemäß ist in einer dem Arbeitsraum (7) zugeordneten Zündkammer (21) eine Zündvorrichtung (22) angeordnet, und zur Zündung von neu zugeführtem Arbeitsmittel in den Arbeitsraum (7) wird ein die Zündkammer (21) absperrendes Ventil (12) geöffnet. Dadurch wird eine sehr exakt steuerbare Entzündung des Arbeitsmittels erreicht.
