  • Publication number: 20210041330
    Abstract: A device for taking a sample from a solid body by cutting out, having a frame and a cutting tool retained on the frame in such a way that the cutting tool can be moved relative to the frame, wherein the cutting tool, at least in parts, at least substantially has the shape of a hollow spherical cap or a hollow spherical segment. A method for taking a sample from a solid body by cutting out is implemented with the device.

  • Patent number: 10253655
    Abstract: A method for coupling a gas turbine connected to a generator and a steam turbine, wherein the generator has an excitation winding, the excitation of which can be changed by changing an excitation current flowing through the excitation winding, the method having the following steps: a) accelerating and/or decelerating the steam turbine in such a way that the coupling takes place with a target coupling angle; b) if necessary, changing the excitation current such that the excitation of the excitation winding changed in this way leads to a changed polar wheel angle, wherein the polar wheel angle is changed in such a way that the achieving of the target coupling angle is supported. In an analogous method, the polar wheel angle is changed for the purposes of improved decoupling. A corresponding control device is for coupling a gas turbine connected to a generator.

  • Publication number: 20070269579
    Abstract: A recombined whole grain flour for use in preparing whole grain products such that whole grain particulates provide minimal visual impact to the whole grain product. By selectively controlling the particle size of the milled bran and germ constituents used in the recombined whole grain flour, the visual and color impact associated with bran and germ particulates can be substantially eliminated from the whole grain product. In particular, whole grain products such as whole grain breads, dough products, mixes and biscuits can be made with recombined whole grain flour. Whole grain products made with recombined whole grain flour are advantageous in that they incorporate the health advantages associated with whole grains while eliminating the characteristic, visual color differences noticeable within a whole grain crumb due to visually identifiable bran and germ particulates found in traditional whole grain products.

  • Publication number: 20070082092
    Abstract: Whole grain baked products and mixes comprising milled whole grain durum wheat are provided. Whole grain durum baked products and mixes utilize milled whole grain durum flour having a generally white-like color wherein durum particulate matter is visually indistinguishable from durum fines by the unassisted eye. Through the use of milled whole grain durum flour, white-like whole grain durum products including white-like whole grain durum breads can be prepared that satisfy generally accepted color and baking performance characteristics for traditional white breads yet contain the bran and germ constituents to provide the nutritional advantages of whole grain products.
