Abstract: A telescopic edge protection post arrangeable between a floor and a ceiling, comprising outer and inner tubes, each comprising a bottom end and a top end, the inner tube extending into the outer tube and being movable with respect thereto between an extended position and a collapsed position. The post further comprises a locking mechanism to lock the inner tube with respect to the outer tube in the extended position, and a tensioning unit arranged at the top end of the inner tube. The tensioning unit comprises a tensioning element having a primary and secondary tensioning portions, wherein tensioning of the secondary tensioning portion requires a lower force than the primary tensioning portion, allowing tensioning of the secondary tensioning portion by extending the telescopic edge protection post by hand into engagement with the floor and the ceiling. Further, the primary and secondary tensioning portions each comprise a compression spring.

Abstract: An opening device for a flexible package having an opening portion defined by two side walls and a width, the opening device intended to be disposed in the opening portion of the package adjacent to an opening, formed upon initial opening of the package, for opening and closing thereof. The opening device comprises a thin-walled first body with a contact surface and a first application surface opposite thereto for allowing application of the first body in the opening portion to a first of the two side walls. The first body is maneuverable, by folding about a first folding axis, between a basic position and a sealing position. In the sealing position, the contact surface has sub portions directly facing each other. A locking member is designed for releasable locking of the body in the sealing position.

Abstract: Method and apparatus in a reservation function associated with a base station serving a cell in a cellular network, for enabling access for privileged sessions in the cell. When detecting that resources being pre-reserved for privileged sessions, are used for establishing a connection for a privileged session for a wireless terminal, the reservation function pre-reserves new resources exclusively for privileged sessions to compensate for the resources occupied by the established privileged session connection in a dynamic manner. Thereby, an amount of resources sufficient for enabling at least one subsequent privileged session connection remains pre-reserved in the base station.

Abstract: The preset invention relates to a method, use of the method and a device for making a seal in a portion of a material web. The material web includes a first elongate section with a first number of layers of material and a second elongate section with a second number of layers of material, at least one of the layers of material being included in both the first and the second section, the portion having an extent that intersects a transition from the first section to the second section of the material web, the method including connecting, in the portion, opposite surfaces of the layers of material of the material web to each other. The method including forming ridges and valleys in the portion, and orienting the ridges and valleys in such a manner that they have an extent intersecting the transition.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a container and method of manufacturing a manually openable container of a collapsible type for fluid contents, including making a container with a defined compartment from a web of material. A top corner portion of the container is designed to define a product channel and an opening initiation is formed across the product channel, along which opening initiation a tab is to be separated. The opening initiation includes a starting portion, a stop portion and a terminating portion. The starting portion requiring a first separating force, and the terminating portion requiring a second separating force. The distance between the starting portion and the terminating portion forms the stop portion, which requires a third separating force. The third separating force is greater than the first and the second separating force.

Abstract: A container of a collapsible type for liquid contents, comprising a compartment (4) which is defined by two opposite side walls (2) and a bottom wall (3) and whose volume depends on the relative position of the walls (2, 3). The container comprises a product-enclosing portion (19) which is formed by said walls (2, 3) and which in a filled state of the container extends from said bottom wall (3) to a surface level (20) of the contents held in the container. The product-enclosing portion (19) is arranged to be expanded by said contents to essentially assume the shape of a truncated cone (21) with its narrow end facing away from said bottom wall (3).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method, use of the method and a device for making a seal (9) in a portion (7) of a material web (1). The material web (1) comprises a first elongate section (2) with a first number of layers of material (20, 21), and a second elongate section (3) with a second number of layers of material (20), at least one of said layers of material (20) being included in both the first and the second section (2, 3), said portion (7) having an extent that intersects a transition (5) from the first section (2) to the second section (3) of the material web (1), the method comprising connecting, in said portion (7), opposite surfaces of the layers of material (20, 21) of the material web (1) to each other. The inventive method is characterised by forming ridges (15) and valleys (16) in said portion (7), and orienting said ridges (15) and valleys (16) in such a manner that they have an extent intersecting said transition (7).

Abstract: An A/D converter includes at least one comparator array (COMP1–COMP7) for flash A/D conversion of an analog signal. Means (CCU, SW1–SW7) provide, for each comparator in the array, a common reference signal to both comparator input terminals. Means (CCU, DAC1–DAC7) force each compara-tor in the array into the same logical output state. Finally, means (CCU, DAC1–DAC7) adjust the comparator trip-point for each comparator by a ramp signal until the logical output state is inverted.
