Patent NO-953794-D0 (NO)
Inventor: CLAESSON KNUT
IPC: E04B1/70
Filed: 1995-09-25
Abstract: There is proposed a method for drying a water-damage concrete floor structure or concrete sub-floor (3), which may or may not include an insulating layer (4, 2). According to the invention, an insulating device (7) is placed on the floor surface in spaced relationship therewith so as to form an underlying gap (8). Dry, hot pressurized air is delivered to the gap with the intention of removing moisture-laden air that has diffused up from the water-damaged area. When the sub-floor supports an insulating layer (4) of sand or mineral wool, hot, dry air is also delivered to this layer. The invention also relates to apparatus which operates in accordance with the inventive method.

Abstract: A medical diagnostic ultrasound system is described in which ultrasonic B mode tissue information and Doppler flow information is acquired from a volumetric region of the body and processed together to render a three dimensional image. The three dimensional rendering processes the B mode and Doppler flow information as a function of the spatial location of B mode and Doppler pixels in the volumetric region. The rendering utilizes separate three dimensional rendering parameters for the tissue and flow information, respectively. <IMAGE>

IPC: A23L3/3436
Filed: 1997-04-08
Abstract: Non-sterile liquids such as fresh milk (and milk products) and fresh fruit juices unfortunately provide an excellent growth medium for micro-organisms, whether aerobic or, like many yeasts and bacteria, "facultatively anaerobic" micro-organisms (meaning that in theory they do not need oxygen for their metabolic processes and yet are not actually poisoned by oxygen, and so can exist in its presence). It has been found, however, that in fact such micro-organisms do seem to require oxygen for some part of their metabolic processes - or, at least, that in a virtually oxygen-free environment their growth is significantly inhibited. Thus, the invention proposes controlling the growth of micro-organisms in non-sterile liquids, such as milk and fruit juices, by the use of an oxygen scavenger to remove virtually all the free molecular oxygen from within the container in which the liquid is stored.

IPC: F16K47/08
Filed: 2000-03-16
Abstract: A fluid energy reduction device especially for a flow control valve has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet separated by a plurality of stacked plates in the form of a trim stack. Each plate of the stack has a plurality of rows of discrete, spaced columns that extend to the plate above in the stack. Fluid flowing through the trim stack is obstructed by the columns and is forced to divide into a plurality of subordinate flow paths.

Title: Method for carrying out real-time backup communication of IP communication
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2000-08-09
Abstract: Real-time communications are transmitted from a transmission side node 120 to a reception side node 130 via an internet protocol (IP) network 100 provided performance is deemed satisfactory. However if performance is deemed unsatisfactory the IP network is bypassed and the real-time communications are instead automatically diverted along a public network 110. If a real-time communication call is newly generated during the course of real-time communication on the public network then the newly generated real-time communication is made to go around the public network rather than the IP network. Performance is assessed by periodically transmitting echo test signals along the IP network. If the time interval between sending and receiving an echo test signal exceeds a predetermined allowed time interval then the quality of real time communication cannot be assured and performance is deemed unsatisfactory.
