Abstract: A mold tool clamping device (30) for a blow mold comprising two mold halves (13 and 13). For fixing of the rear blow mold half to the clamp plate associated therewith, there is provided at least two wedge locks or cam locks, which are provided in a symmetric arrangement relative to the “vertical” transverse central plane of the rear mold tool, which are clampable with wedges, which, supported on the back side of the clamp plate, transverse to the longitudinal axis of the clamp bolts, are drivable into their anchor groove of anchor keyways, wherein these wedge locks are so arranged, that the wedges are drivable “from the side” into their clamp position in designed “grooves” of the clamp bolts complimentary thereto. This makes possible a rapid and positionally accurate securing of the rear mold half to its rear clamp plate.

Abstract: The invention relates to an improvement in the art of loom and weaving room conditioning, in which the necessary moisture required by the yarn to perform best in the loom is metered exactly and directly on the yarn, whereby yarn breakage is reduced and weaving air room humidity can be lowered, thereby improving human comfort. Lint and dust generated by the weaving process are removed at their source so air contamination is lowered, improving hygienic conditions and reducing air filtration requirements. Heat generated by the weaving process is partly removed by water-cooling the lubricating oil, thereby reducing the weaving room heat load. Large peripherally located air conditioning units are replaced by smaller units, distributed over or under the roof of the room, each serving the area of 4-24 looms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a new method for determination of realistic UV protection factors or bread spectrum indices of a sunscreen preparation. Realistic UV protection factors are calculable by determination of the theoretical and the experimental UV absorbances of known UV filters in wavelength steps of about 5 nm in the range of 290-400 nm from a definite basic formulation (emulsion, gel etc.) and on a transparent substrate and introducing of the values in a mathematical model. These factors are in conformity with values measured in vivo. The number of the experiments for developing new formulations are significant reduced because only basic formulation, kind and concentration of the filters have to enter.
