  • Patent number: 8820387
    Abstract: The invention relates to a winding device and to a method for covering wall openings or windows. The winding device comprises a covering element that can be rolled up, a deflecting element that has a wave-like design, or is simply formed by a bottom hemline, or a bottom woven fabric edge and/or longitudinal edge, and at least on raising and lowering unit. In addition, the covering element is provided with an upper longitudinal edge, which is preferably arranged in parallel to the deflecting element. The lower longitudinal edge is either connected to the deflecting element, or is formed by the same, so that as a result of a rotation of the deflecting element, or of the lower woven fabric edge and/or longitudinal edge, about a horizontal axis, the covering element can be rolled up or down. The raising and lowering unit comprises at least one cord, wherein at least one free end of the cord is connected to the raising and lowering unit.

  • Publication number: 20130196047
    Abstract: A process for the production of natural stimulants based on fat-containing masses. To produce the fat-containing mass, the raw materials are fed into an apparatus first. These raw materials are mixed in the apparatus and the required processing temperature and consistency are set. Then the mixed raw materials are liquefied in the apparatus by adding at least one fat and/or at least one oil. Finally, the fat-containing mass produced is pulverized through circulation between the apparatus and a grinding mill. The grinding mill may include two grinding zones. In the first grinding zone, the coarse components are pre-ground. In the subsequent main grinding zone, the pre-ground components are pulverized.
