Publication number: 20240092106Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for establishing the suitability for printing of a thermoplastic film for use in a packaging of absorbent hygienic articles, said thermoplastic film comprising at least 30% recycled polymer material. The method comprises scanning a sample of said film for Gel Spots, defining an Amount of Gel spots and a Relative Gel Spot Coverage area, and, determining that if the Amount of Gel Spots is less than or equal to a first threshold and the Relative Gel Spot Coverage Area is less than or equal to a second threshold, determining that said thermoplastic film is suitable for printing. The disclosure also relates to a method of forming a package from a thermoplastic film, and to a package comprising a thermoplastic film.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2021Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Anders Andreasson, Erik Nordström Matthiessen, Jonas Jönsson, Elisabet Cullbrand, Alessandro Galatà, Cecilia Thelin, Olivier Coursimaux

Patent number: 10767711Abstract: A safety coupling has a driving coupling member engaged with a driven coupling member by a frictional connection. The frictional connection can be disconnected by activation of a release element. The release element can be activated by a centrifugal device wherein a centrifugal unit of the centrifugal device is radially moveable to interact with a shift gate in dependence of the revolution speed of the centrifugal unit and the slip between the driving coupling member and the driven coupling member. The centrifugal device includes a stop to limit the centrifugal force applied to the centrifugal unit.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2016Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: Voith Patent GmbHInventors: Robert Ericsson, Mikael Jacobs, David Bergstroem, Per-Olof Berg, Axel Bohler, Jonas Loefgren, Daniel Fors, Kjell-Erik Larsson, Erik Nordstroem, Niclas Olsson

Patent number: 10509785Abstract: A database system stores data as hypertables that represent partitioned database tables. Each hypertable comprises chunks of data that may be distributed across multiple locations, each location comprising at least a storage device. The database system provides an interface that allows database queries seamlessly to hypertables as well as standard tables. The database system dynamically creates chunks as records are added to a hypertable. The database system defines a new partitioning strategy if the storage configuration of the database system is changed by adding new locations or removing existing locations. The records added to the hypertable before the storage configuration was changed continue to be stored as chunks distributed according to the previous partitioning policy.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2018Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: Timescale, Inc.Inventors: Matvey Arye, Michael J. Freedman, Robert Kiefer, Ajay A. Kulkarni, Erik Nordström
