Abstract: The cover is intended for a container with an angled rim and has a sealing mechanism acting peripherally on the edge of the container. There is, around the edge of the cover, an open elastic metal sealing ring exerting a spring force which increases with the diameter of the sealing ring. In its position of rest the sealing ring is clamped between the end region of a part of the rim of the container and the end region of an annular angled section on the edge of the cover. The sealing mechanism comprises means for expanding the diameter of the sealing ring against said spring force.

Abstract: The cooking vessel comprises a container (1) and a lid consisting of an inner lid (3) and an outer lid (5). The container comprises a bent peripheral container rim (2) wherein twelve individual hook-like lock elements (21) are effective locking the cooking vessel. The lock elements (21) are arranged peripherically and swivellingly along the inner lid rim (4) so that through pressing the upper lid (5) against the lock elements (21) a swivel movement of said lock elements is obtained. The lock elements are C-shaped with a hook part (32), such that in the swivel position corresponding to the closed state, the ends of this hook part (32) grip under the outer container rim (2). In the swivel position corresponding to the opened state, the ends of said hook part (32) are in a distance from said container rim (2) allowing an unhindered lifting of the inner lid (3) from the container (1).

Abstract: A Fourier transform hologram image is created on a sheet on the seal. The image is made, by making a die from the Fourier transform hologram image master plate and by molding resin on the die. The image formed on the sheet is reconstructed by an identification apparatus. The identification apparatus contains the laser emitting device and the screen for receiving the reflecting laser beam. The laser beam is illuminated vertically against the sheet from the laser emitting device. The laser beam reflected from the sheet surface is received by the screen, and the image of the sheet is reconstructed on the screen. At this time, it is possible to check whether the laser beam is reaching the sheet from an opening in the casing.
Abstract: A method of manufacturing a cooking utensil comprising a round container for the food. The container comprises a container, a plate made of heat-conducting material and a cap enclosing the plate, the cap being made from a sheet-metal disk and having a base provided with a convex curvature towards the container and also having collar which bears against the round container in a curved transition region between the container base and the container jacket. The container and the cap are made of stainless steel. The plate is intermetallically bonded to the container base and the cap. The plate, the sheet-metal disk and the container base are centered and connected by a central spot weld, using electric resistance welding. Next, the intermetallic bond is produced by single or multiple impulse pressure and permanent deformation and the cap collar is formed on the sheet-metal disk and its rim is placed around the container.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a cooking utensil comprising a round container for the food, the container comprising a base, a plate of heat-conducting material and a cap enclosing the plate. A plate is inserted into the enclosing cap and leaves an annular flow space between it and a preformed collar on the cap. The assembly of the container base, the plate and the cap is centered between the ram and die of a press and intermetallically bonded by single or multiple impulse pressure, so as to form the convex curvature of the cap bottom and to mold the rim of the cap collar around the vessel. During impulse pressure, the plate is pressed by plastic deformation into the flow space, where it is intermetallically bonded to the cap bottom, the cap collar and the corresponding region of the container. Use is made of a plate having a base member which is circular in plan view and has at least three centering projections on its rim, around its circular periphery.

Abstract: A weight loss management system utilizes a computer analysis of a participant's past medical history, eating habits, body measurements, exercise level and taste preferences to provide a menu of a specified number of calories to maintain a reasonable weight. The system provides consultation with a dietition in order for a participant to recognize the deficiencies in the past diet. The system further provides consultation to effect behavior modification of the participant by offering instruction in nutrition, exercise and proper cooking techniques.
Abstract: A flexible, efficient and rapid method is shown whereby many different tissues samples may be stained or reacted and examined simultaneously, on one standard glass slide. This method is based on the preparation of "cores" of paraffin embedded tissue from standard sources of tissue such as histology blocks. The paraffin embedded tissue cores are inserted into a casing cut from an ordinary drinking straw, or similar holding device, mounted in a paraffin block and sectioned.
