Abstract: Micro-components having at least one individual layer are produced according to the method, which have functional layers 3 on the walls of inner structures, for example of flow channels. The micro-components are intended to be suitable for a large number of different applications in chemical reaction technology, for heat exchanging, for mixing substances or for evaporating liquids. In particular, the micro-components are intended to have no problems in respect of leaks in the flow channels. The method has the following method steps: A. producing the at least one individual layer by: a. producing a first metal layer or a metal foil 1; b. forming the inner structures in and/or on the first metal layer or metal foil 1 by suitable etching methods and/or metal deposition methods; and c. forming the functional layers 3 solely on the walls of the inner structures and thereafter B.

Abstract: A composition and method for administering a treatment agent to a tooth, such as fluoride to improve the tooth's resistance to dental caries with a composition which can be selectively removed, the composition comprising a lac based compound with a treatment agent such as fluoride for applying to a tooth, and a method including selecting the color to be applied, preparing the colorized compound with the treatment agent to be applied to a tooth, exposing the tooth to be covered, applying the treatment containing a colorized compound to the enamel surface of the tooth, and allowing the compound to dry on the tooth, and selectively removing the compound from the tooth. Stencil apparatus can be used to create a design on the tooth using a covering compound.
Abstract: A lock box device having a unit with a pepper spray dispenser or a signal transmitter, or both, each of which can be selectively actuated or actuated simultaneously. The device allows selective discharge by a user of an irritant, such as a pepper spray, and selective actuation of a transmitter to emit a distress signal.
Abstract: A device for storing and holding compact discs with a holder member which carries a disc, and optionally, a jacket or other information identifying the disc, a tray in which one or more holder members are releaseably mounted for storing compact discs, the holder member having a body portion on which the disc is held and a flexible membrane connecting the body portion to a retaining member, the retaining member being secured in the tray, thereby permitting flipping of the holder member to facilitate identification and selection of a compact disc.
Abstract: Process for the production of at least one solderable surface in selected solder regions and of at least one functional surface in function regions differing from the solder regions on circuit carriers provided as well as of corresponding circuit carriers.

Abstract: A device for handling containers, such as drums, is provided to facilitate holding a drum during drum handling by engaging the drum with a first clamping member and a second clamping member which can be selectively locked with a locking mechanism to facilitate the secure holding of the drum during handling by facilitating the maintenance of the drum in clamped engagement with the device.
Abstract: An ironing board pad having a plurality of fibrous elements arranged adjacently and held together by a web with a plurality of loops forming a network to hold the fibrous elements in compressive adjacent relation to one another, the web being made of a heat resistant material.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for facilitating the locating of vessels in a living body, the apparatus having an enclosure for surrounding a portion of the living body, a light source positioned to illuminate the body portion, a sight for viewing into the enclosure, and a secondary light source for illuminating the interior of the enclosure, the method comprising the steps of transilluminating a body portion with a light source.
Abstract: A composition and method for altering the appearance of teeth, including whitening or otherwise colorizing teeth, to cover discolorations and stains, or to provide a fashionable color on the tooth which can be selectively removed, the composition comprising a lac based compound solubilized for applying on the surface of a tooth, and a method including selecting the color to be applied, preparing the colorized compound to be applied to a tooth, exposing the tooth to be covered, applying a colorized compound to the enamel surface of the tooth, and allowing the compound to dry on the tooth, and selectively removing the compound from the tooth.
Abstract: A testing system for the automatic acquisition, scaling, conditioning, calculating, recording and displaying of various channels of engine/dynamometer generated electrical signals for a gas powered turbine engine in the form of an animated user display graphic, which simultaneously presents a series of condition graphics for display on a monitor to provide an operator with a visual inspection of engine operations.
Abstract: A method and apparatus for decoding locks having a guide member, an alignment member, a reader, and a recording medium, which a guide member is inserted into a lock to open the lock to receive an alignment member which aligns the tumbler members of a lock, thereby permitting a reader to be inserted into the lock, and withdrawn therefrom to cause a displacement of a pivotally connected reader arm which records an image of the lock profile on a recording medium.
Abstract: A portable barrier system including a portable post support device having a base member with a handle and an attachment mechanism for supporting a post, the post in turn supporting a barrier material.
