  • Highly flexible transdermal therapeutic system having nicotine as active substance
    Patent number: 8226974
    Abstract: The invention relates to transdermal therapeutic systems which have the active ingredient nicotine and have particularly high flexibility. This flexibility decisively improves wearer comfort on the skin, since the system is readily capable of adapting to the surface of the skin and its constant movement. Surprisingly, the nicotine TTS of the invention is markedly more flexible than the conventional nicotine TTS products which are leaders in the market, although at least some of those systems are comparably thin.

  • Disposable injector with dual-piston dual-chamber system
    Patent number: 8211086
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of making a solution for injection from a solvent and an active ingredient using a disposable injector with a housing, an injector-side, first cylinder-piston unit—at least intermittently fillable—arranged thereon and an upstream detachable container adapter, wherein the container adapter bears a likewise at least intermittently fillable second cylinder-piston unit. A solvent is stored in the first cylinder-piston unit. In the second cylinder-piston unit there is a freeze-dried active pharmaceutical ingredient. Immediately before use of the disposable injector the solvent is conveyed to the second cylinder-piston unit to the active pharmaceutical ingredient, where a solution forms. This solution is transfer-pumped into the first cylinder-piston unit to then be administered.

  • Method and electricity generating installation for stabilizing an electricity distribution network
    Patent number: 8203318
    Abstract: An electricity generating installation is connected to an electricity distribution network and feeds electrical power into the network via a converter. After detecting a network fault, a stabilization regulator in the installation is activated. The stabilization regulator regulates the voltage of the electrical power as a function of a fed-back voltage signal and has a step-function response that rises over time. After a predetermined time period has elapsed since the activation of the stabilization regulator, the reactive current feed is increased beyond a limit which is provided for normal operation if the network has not stabilized. Accordingly, a converter-fed electricity generating installation, such as a wind energy installation, can help stabilize an electricity distribution network after a network fault.

  • Method for the operation and use of a converter
    Patent number: 8189353
    Abstract: A method for the operation of a converter of a power-generating generator system that can be connected to an electrical AC network, and the use of the converter is provided. The converter is operated by a regulation device regulating the converter as an active audio frequency block. At least one audio frequency current of at least one specified audio frequency is detected. An AC current progression that is to be transmitted to the converter in the regulation device is determined, where at least one audio frequency current is at least partially impressed on the AC current progression. The AC current progression in the converter is generated. The AC current progression generated by the converter is then supplied to the AC network.

  • DIFFUSOR
    Publication number: 20120128479
    Abstract: The guide device for the diffusor at the compressor impeller outlet of a radial compressor has guide blades with stepped inlet edges. The step is implemented by setting back the hub-side inlet edge. This meridional stepping divides the guide blades into two component blades, of which the first component blade is made longer than the second component blade. The set-back of the inlet edge of the hub-side component blade and the associated superposition of the noise fields which are produced on the front and rear inlet edge of the diffusor leads to improvement of the acoustic properties of the compressor.
