Abstract: A monitoring arrangement for an exercise device generates data items representing exercise activity by a user, performs a connection process for establishment of an end-to-end connection to a user device, broadcasts progress data that represents data items generated during the connection process, and sequentially transmits, on the end-to-end connection data items, generated after establishment of the end-to-end connection. The user device receives the progress data and presents, during the connection process, progress of the exercise activity based on the progress data. After establishment of the end-to-end connection, the user device presents progress of the exercise activity based on data items received on the end-to-end connection. The combination of broadcasting and sequential transmission obviates the need for the user to wait for the end-to-end connection before starting exercise activity.

Abstract: The disclosure relates generally to devices, systems and methods for measuring, transmitting, recording and displaying information relating to physical exercise and, more particularly, to a monitoring system for monitoring exercise machines comprising a lifting mechanism for selectively engaging one or more of the weights. A first aspect of the disclosure relates to an exercise machine monitoring system for monitoring exercise machines, where the exercise machines, comprise a plurality of stacked weights, the monitoring system comprises, for each of the exercise machines a repetition detector and an exercise machine identifier. The monitoring system further comprises an observer and a user device.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for continuously at atmospheric pressure rotary steam fry potato slices, the apparatus comprising an inlet conveyer for taking the slices from a lower atmospherically opened inlet into a rotary conveyor with steam permeable mantle surface for tumbling and conveying potato slices inside a hermetically closed top through a pre heat zone and a frying zone until gravity fed out through an atmospherically opened outlet below the hermetically closed top, an oiler for totally covering the slices with oil before entering the frying zone, a loop heating system consisting of at least one separator, one gas blower and one heat exchanger adapted for pushing superheated stem, with temperature of 110 to 300 C, through the conveyor with steam permeable mantle surface and through a deep bed of potato slices, heating the oil on the potato slices surface which in tum heats the potato slices.

Abstract: An electronic tag, which may be used in a data management system, comprises a Bluetooth transmitter and an RFID transmitter. The Bluetooth transmitter is operable to transmit first data packets. The RFID transmitter is operable to transmit second data packets. The first data packets comprise a first identifier, ID1, and the second data packets comprise a second identifier, ID2, which is different from ID1. A portable electronic device is configured to, upon receiving one of the first data packets by a Bluetooth receiver, selectively activate an RFID receiver for the second data packets, thereby enabling transfer of ID2 from the electronic tag irrespective of the data transfer capacity of the first data packets.

Abstract: An apparatus (1) for making shaped food chip products (2) including hotplates (3) (4) that are arranged in such way that, when in use, food snacks are hold between the hotplates and where at least one hotplate surface is covered with a steam permeable membrane (5). Also a method for making food chip product (2) including feeding slices of food in a monolayered between hotplates (3, 4) where at least one of the hotplate surfaces pressing on the food snack is covered with a membrane (5) that guidance the steam away.

Abstract: An apparatus for making food chips, comprises a source of heat, and a conveyer belt arranged such that, when in use, food chips are held between the belt and the heat source at least a part of the path of the belt, and wherein the belt is steam permeable. Also, a method for making food chips comprising feeding sliced mono layered food between a steam permeable conveyer belt and a heat source and guiding steam from the food through the steam permeable belt.
