A method for the construction, transportation and site installation of a gravity-supported deep-sea lattice structure, characterized by using a dry dock only for constructing the base of the structure, this latter then being completed in protected deep water by successively welding leg portions prefabricated in different construction yards, the welding being done using floating docks, one for each...

The device is provided with two sets of parallel electrodes, with the sets being perpendicular to each other and arrayed so that each cell has two electrodes, one at the top of the cell and one at the bottom of the cell. A cell is fired and caused to glow by the application of suitable potentials to the electrodes which cross each other at the particular cell. A selective flow of excited gaseous p...

Rapid cooling of a freshly baked moisture-containing farinaceous foodstuff article such as bread, wherein the article at its baked temperature and without deliberate pre-cooling is submitted to a reduced pressure treatment, which is applied at a plurality of rates so that on the one hand the article is not disintegrated, and on the other hand the article does not suffer an unacceptable peripheral ...

The image signal in a radiation imaging system is improved by establishing a scattered radiation signal and subtracting the scatter radiation signal from the detected radiation signal. The scatter radiation signal is established by shielding portions of the detector and measuring radiation at the shielded portions of the detector. The total scatter radiation signal is interpolated from spatial dis...

A liquid absorbing pad, in particular for use in hygiene articles and sanitary products, such as diapers, bed pads, sanitary napkins, pads for incontinence, panty shields, nursing pads or the like, is produced in a dry and direct process on the basis of wet-strength and/or coated paper waste, especially originating from the production of food packages, milk carton packages, deep-freeze packages, d...

The tendency to blocking of polymer sheets can be reduced by means of anti-blocking agents. Suitable anti-blocking agents in transparent polyvinyl butyral sheets are especially montanic acid esters, which do not adversely affect the adhesion of the sheet to glass. The polyvinyl butyral sheets are used as interlayers of laminated glass (safety glass).

PURPOSE:To raise the stability of an offshore working platform during the towing operation by a method in which legs to support the platform are divided into plural parts in an expandible manner. CONSTITUTION:In a landing and elevation type offshore working platform consisting of a platform 1, legs 2 to support the platform 1, and a jack device 4 provided between the legs 2 and the platform 1, the...

Arrangement for applying written or drawn information onto image carriers for overhead projectors, characterized by an image carrier in film or plate form which comprises at least one colored compound, as well as a writing or drawing marker. The writing or drawing fluid of the marker contains at least one colorless compound which reacts with the colored compound to produce a color change.

Vacuum-regulated system for automatic disengagement of a manual clutch in a vehicle for eliminating mechanical rattle from the vehicle gearbox during idling. A servo unit in the system is joined to the clutch releasing arm and is controlled by the gearbox shift lever for moving the release arm to disengaged position when the lever is in neutral position. The control cable of the clutch pedal is co...
