  • Patent number: 10941482
    Abstract: A filter device for reducing the amount of non-vaporous components in a vapour stream, including a carbon foam as filter material capable of being penetrated by the vapour stream and arranged in such a way that the only route for the vapour stream to pass the carbon foam is via penetration of the carbon foam. The device is in particular suitable for coating a substrate by physical vapour deposition of the vapour. The homogenous and single phase vapour stream produced by the filter device results in a smooth coated substrate wherein splashes are virtually absent.

  • Patent number: 8977249
    Abstract: A method in one embodiment includes receiving, by a mobile client device, an incoming call sent by a caller, a caller ID being associated with the incoming call. A node connected to a packet-based network is accessed to obtain information about the caller. Information about the caller is then received from the node by the mobile client device. This information is applied to a set of client rules that selects a specific ring tone from a plurality of ring tones stored on the mobile client device. Finally, the specific ring tone is generated on the mobile client device to announce the incoming call.

  • Patent number: 8713053
    Abstract: A method for retrieving data in a data source is provided. The method includes receiving a search term; identifying an active tag associated with the search term; correlating the active tag to dynamic data that is operative to adapt to a mining context in which data is stored; and retrieving the data using the dynamic data.

  • Patent number: 7608720
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of 2-amino-methylpyridine derivatives of the formula (I), comprising reacting in a first step 2-substituted pyridine derivatives of the formula (II), with a nitroalkane of the formula (III), in the presence of a base resulting in 2-nitromethylpyridine derivatives of the formula (IV) and hydrogenating these 2-nitromethylpyridine derivatives of the formula (IV) in a second step in the presence of a catalyst and in the presence of an acid, where in the formulae n, X, Y, R1, R2 and A are as defined in the description.

  • Patent number: 3957773
    Abstract: 7.beta.-Amino-3-methylceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acid is converted to cephalexin in high yield and relatively uncontaminated with unreacted 7.beta.-amino-3-methylceph-3-em-4-carboxylic acid if it is silylated prior to acylation with phenyl glycyl chloride hydrochloride and if the acylation reaction is conducted in dimethylformamide at low temperature in the presence of certain weak tertiary nitrogen bases.
