Abstract: A cooking surface for a cooktop. Encrusted, spilled, or overflowing food is deposited on the cooking surfaces of cooktops during cooking and the removal of such residue is difficult because the surface of a cooktop is typically rough and uneven. The invention teaches the manufacture of an easy-to-clean glass ceramic cooktop from a floated glass ceramic. As a result of the increased use of controls in cooking devices, an increased number of displays are also being used under the surface of the cooktops. The invention provides a cooktop with a smooth, distortion-free surface that is easy to clean. The invention also relates to window panes for enclosed hot areas with high temperatures, which are typically made of transparent glass ceramic. When used as windows in warming stoves or in self-cleaning ovens, combustion residues are thereby deposited on the windows, which residues must then be removed.

Abstract: Stove or grill having a cook top, hob or cooking surface for cooking food. The cook top or hob is made of a glass ceramic material. The top surface of the cook top or hob has at least one groove-shaped depression to define and separate various zone and cooking areas on the cook top or hob.

Abstract: Method and device to close containers with a closure that contains a reclosable drinking opening and a protective cap to cover such a drinking opening. Closures of this type for the closure of containers are supplied in the form of a complete unit with a pressed-on protective cap and a closed drinking opening, and in this condition they are cleaned from inside, preferably prior to the actual closing. The closure is then placed on the bottle. During the cleaning and/or sterilization process, it is unavoidable that traces of fluid will remain in the internal structure of the closure, which is constructed of a number of different parts. Such fluid traces represent a major disadvantage, in particular in the beverage industry, and are therefore undesirable.

Abstract: In a beverage container filling machine or plant, an arrangement and a method for filling of bottles, cans, or the like containers, with a liquid filling material, for example, a beverage, using a plurality of filling elements, during the filling process there is monitored, on an individual basis at each filling element, the pressure in the interior space of the container that is connected with this filling element and this actual pressure behavior or value is utilized for monitoring and control purposes.

Abstract: In a computer system with a virtual addressing mechanism, a process for the de-allocation of physical pages sets, by means of a first pointer (ptr) on a line (5) of a conversion table (1) that contains an indicator (Ref) that has been set to a first state (“referenced”) by a processor (2), the indicator (Ref) to a second state (“non-referenced”) if the state is (“referenced”) and de-allocates the line (5) if the state is (“non-referenced”). The de-allocation process claimed by the invention sets an indicator (ref) which has been set to the first state (“referenced”) by the processor (2) on a line (13) of the conversion table (1) to a second state (“non-referenced”) if the state is (“referenced”) by means of a second pointer (ptr+&Dgr;) on the line (13) upon the indication of an attribute value (Co) for said line (13). The de-allocation process can therefore be used for a cache mechanism.

Abstract: Apparatus for the recovery of an inert gas, preferably for the recovery of CO2, for use in counterpressure filling machines, the filling elements of which—prior to introduction of a liquid filling material into a container—evacuate this container and at least prepressurize this container with an inert gas under pressure from the pressurizing gas distribution channel:and which elements, during the subsequent introduction of a filling material, conduct the inert gas containing return gas displaced from a corresponding container into a return gas collection channel, wherein a first evacuation system is provided with which the air can be removed from the bottle, and then there is carried out a prepressurizing of the bottles using an inert gas; and a second independent evacuation system is provided with which can be removed and collected, independently of the first evacuation, the inert gas that is being removed by suction.
