The disclosure relates to an article, suitable to be worn unobtrusively and with comfort by a woman in the last stages of pregnancy, which is positioned to receive and retain the amniotic fluids when released. The article may conveniently be in a form similar to a sanitary napkin belt, or may be constructed into a hospital garment, for example. Although the fluid receptacle is capable of containin...

To effect shelling of crustaceans surface heated crustaceans are shot against a water covered deflector plate in a vacuum chamber, whereby a practically complete deshelling is obtainable without any recirculation. The crustaceans are shot against the deflector plate in very thin flows through periodically operating inlet valves, whereby each single crustaceans will hit the deflector plate and be e...

1. Moulding material filled with starch for rigid polyurethane foams, characterised in that the starch filler component represents 3 to 40% of the total weight and at least 80% of it consists of gelatinized starch, which is substantially free of particles of a diameter exceeding 3 mm and has a maximum water content of 15% by weight.

An expandable alkenyl aromatic polymer composition and methods of preparation are provided. The composition is admixed with a volatile blowing agent and an expansion aid which includes a polyphenylene ether. The composition may be extruded and then expanded by exposure to steam or hot air or may be impregnated with blowing agent and then expanded.

A flow distribution system for the plenum chamber (12) of a gas- liquid-solids fluidised bed reactor includes a baffled nozzle device (16) containing at least two baffle plates (30, 32, 34) for mixing and uniform flow distribution of gas-liquid- materials in the lower portion of the plenum (12), used in combination with a distribution grid (18) to effect a uniform flow distribution of the gas/liqu...

A surveillance system is based upon generation and detection of phase shifted harmonic signals responsive to transmission of a reference signal at a fundamental frequency in a detection zone. Phase shifted harmonic signals may be generated by markers comprising a core of soft magnetic material and an electrically conductive material at least partly surrounding the core. Phase shifted harmonics are...

PURPOSE:To make the efficiency of use of public telephone circuits uniform by decentralizing loads on respective terminal controller efficiently by optionally changing terminals which one terminal controller handles. CONSTITUTION:Terminal controllers TC1 and TC2 are each provided with an ID table TBL for connections of public telephone circuits, and a host CPU writes the inherent numbers of termin...

PURPOSE:To reduce the breakdown of a passivation film by a method wherein a low temperature plasma grown inorganic insulating film is laid between a coating resin film coated and solidified on a semiconductor element and a mold resin film. CONSTITUTION:A low temperature plsma grown inorganic insulating film 10 e.g. a silicon oxide film or silicon nitride film is laid between a coating resin film 7...

PURPOSE:To facilitate the fixation of pins to a substrate while increasing the pulling out strength of pins by a method wherein multiple pins fixed to a substrate by insertion-molding are projected from the substrate while multiple flanges are protruded beyond the bases of pins in the axial direction of pins simultaneously to be buried in the substrate of molded product. CONSTITUTION:Pins 3 are fo...

PURPOSE:To improve the reliability upon electrical conduction between pin holes and pins by a method wherein a circuit body is buried in a substrate to be fixed in a state wherein the bases of pins are inserted into pin holes made in the circuit body to connect the circuit body to the pins while the pin holes and the bases of pins are exposed and then a recession is provided in a substrate to be f...

PURPOSE:To enable a circuit body to be fixed to a substrate by acculate positioning by a method wherein the circuit body is buried in a substrate to be fixed in a specific state while a stay member is buried in the substrate to be fixed in a partly exposed state to the backside of exposed part of the circuit body. CONSTITUTION:The molding process is performed while the peripheral part of an openin...

PURPOSE:To automatically adjust a gap according to the thickness of a printing paper without the manual operating of an operator, by providing a shaft position setting mechanism for moving a shaft in parallel to a platen to set the shaft at a position according to the thickness of the printing paper set on the surface of the platen. CONSTITUTION:When a carriage 27 is moved leftward from a home pos...

A confluent layer of cells intended to colonise collagen is produced and this confluent cell layer is placed in contact with a sheet of collagen in the presence of an appropriate medium, after which the cells are allowed to colonise at least part of the said sheet and to cause a shrinkage of the sheet in thickness alone. Application to the preparation of equivalent dermis and to virus cultivation.
