Title: Analyzing and sorting of wood veneers
Inventor: KAIRI MATTI
IPC: G01N27/72
Filed: 2002-09-03
Granted: 2010-02-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for increasing strength and/or reducing strength variations in multi-layer wood, plywood, and the like sandwich ma- terial. The method comprises measuring wood veneers (10) for dry sub- stance density (p) with high-frequency electromagnetic resonance (TEM) and additionally analyzing the homogeneity and/or grain structure of wood veneers from a wood veneer surface in the way of its darkness (R). If the wood veneer comprises a number of local first regions, which are darker than a predominant darkness of the veneer surface, the wood veneer in question has its calculated dry substance density (P C ) established to be lower than its initially measured value ( P M ). On the other hand, if the wood veneer has a substantially uniform darkness, the wood veneer in question has the longitudinal and lateral distribution of its dry substance density evaluated and, if those are substantially uniform, the calculated dry sub- stance density (P C) of the wood veneer in question is established for a sort- ing process to be higher than its initially measured value ( P M ). Wood ve- neers are sorted on the basis of said calculated dry densities for at least two different density categories. In a first density category (A), the dry substance density is higher than in a second density category (B). Wood veneers are laid on top of each other for multi-layer wood, plywood, or some other sandwich material (20), the veneers included in the first density category serving as surface veneers (13) and the veneers included in the second den- sity category serving as middle veneers (14).

Abstract: A venting device (50) that reduces the moisture of an enclosure containing a heat source and prevents the entrance of water or other liquids and contamination from entering the enclosure. The moisture reducing device (50) comprises a drying agent or desiccant (42) which is adjacent to said heat source (such as an automotive headlamp bulb or thermally cycling device), an air-impermeable, water-vapor permeable layer (40), a vent (52) that allows bulk flow of air during thermal cycling of the heat source and a internal diffusion tube or channel (65) that limits the entrance of moisture vapor from the external atmosphere to the drying agent or desiccant (42). The air-impermeable, water-vapor permeable layer (40) allows for continuous diffusion of water vapor, reducing the moisture in the enclosure when the heat source is de-energized. The location of the device to the heat source regenerates the drying agent in the device when the heat source is energized. The device may be in a variety of shapes for ease of placing the device adjacent to the heat source.

Granted: 2008-09-30
Abstract: Efficient, selective, and economical methods for producing non-dairy, ready-to-use milk substitute cereal dispersions having intact .beta.-glucans, proteins, and natural sugars, while retaining the aroma and flavor of natural cereal.  The methods include treating a cereal substrate suspension with an enzyme preparation that comprises at least one hydrolase having the ability to hydrolyse .alpha.-glycosidic bonds and having no glucanase and proteinase effect. The hydrolase may be selected from the group consisting of .beta.-amylase, .alpha.-amylase, amyloglucosidase and pullulanase, with the proviso that when the enzyme preparation comprises .alpha.-amylase or .beta.-amylase, there is always a mixture of at least one other of the .alpha.-glycosidic hydrolases. When .beta.-amylase and .alpha.-amylase are selected, they are used as a mixture, i.e., introduced simultaneously, to provide for accelerated enzymatic hydrolysis and for reduced amounts of the enzymes than otherwise needed if the enzymes were used separately. In addition to the above-identified hydrolases, the enzyme preparations of the present invention may further comprise an isomerase, such as glucose isomerase.

Abstract: An accelerated cooking feature for use in an appliance having an oven cavity includes a forced air convection system having an electronic control unit, a variable speed, bi-directional fan motor, and a directionally vented cover plate. The appliance operates in at least three modes, constituted by a convection mode, a radiant bake mode and a self clean mode. In the convection mode, the controller operates the fan motor in a first direction at a speed dependent upon a selected cooking process, with various air streams being directed into distinct regions of the oven cavity. During the radiant bake mode, the controller operates the fan motor in a reverse direction to establish a uniform cooking environment. In the self clean mode, high speed air currents are directed into the oven cavity and, in combination with a top broil element, perform a pyrolytic cleaning process.
