Abstract: A nozzle structure for discharging printing material onto a substrate is presented. The nozzle structure comprises a tubular member having a distal part that faces the printing plane when in operation and defining an elongated inner cavity along the tubular member for placement a filament printing material. The tubular member comprises light input ports on the proximal part thereof for directing light toward inner surfaces thereof. The tubular member has an elongated tube portion and a distal tip portion at the distal part thereof, configured and operable as a light guide trapping and guiding the input light along the tubular member in a general direction toward the distal part, thereby continuously transferring light field to distal regions of the elongated inner cavity. The distal tip portion is configured to allow the trapped light to escape towards the printing plane, thereby heating a location on the printing plane facing the nozzle.

Abstract: There is provided a computer-implemented logic circuit, also referred to as ad-handling logic, configured to handle advertisements when a web page is downloaded from a web site or a web portal in a communication network. The computer-implemented logic unit comprises processing circuitry and associated memory. The processing circuitry is configured to identify an executable script related to an advertisement, also referred to as an ad script, in the web page code corresponding to the web page. The processing circuitry is further configured to insert an advertisement-delaying script-based executable patch in relation to the ad script to enable a delay of the download of objects related to the advertisement. As an example, the computer-implemented logic unit may be configured for connection to or implementation with a proxy server in the network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a data object from a Content Server to a client device over a Radio Access Network (RAN). A first property is determined that may affect the way in which the data object is to be transferred. A property of the data object is also determined. In response to the determined first property and the property of the data object, a characteristic of a transfer of the data object from the Content Server to the client device is amended. The data object is then provided from the Content Server to the client device. The method allows characteristics of the transfer of the data object to be changed to optimize transfer to the client device. Examples of the first property include properties in the RAN or client device instructions.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing data to a network terminal. A network node receives information relating to a first instance of a client running at the network terminal. Using the information, the network node concurrently runs a second instance of the client that emulates the first instance. Using the second instance, the network node generates a request for data required by the first instance. Before receiving a request for data generated by the first instance, the network node sends the request for data required by the first instance to a remote server and receives a response that includes the required data. The required data is then sent to the network terminal. The advantage of this is that the request for data required is generated before the network node receives a request from the network terminal. This allows the request to be handled more quickly.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for the classification of solid materials, preferably that of hard and highly pure materials, comprising a housing provided with an inlet stub, fine fraction outlet stub and a coarse fraction outlet stub as well as vane-crowns. The fluid carrying the material to be separated or classified radially passes through two vane-crowns with the vanes oriented at an angle to the tangent of the vane-crowns. Upon passage through the first vane-crown the separating or classifying chamber is reached whereupon the coarse fraction is separated out and the fluid flows radially through the second vane-crown whereupon the flow becomes axial with the fluid exiting against gravity and the separated material being collected below in a closed storage tank associated with the coarse product outlet stub.

Abstract: An air-jet mill provided with pregrinding chambers and inner sizer suitable for fine grinding (below 10 .mu.), for cryogenic grinding and also for surface treatment during grinding of hard, elastic and/or thermoplastic materials.During operation there are no moving components to be exposed to heavy wear, and an inner sizer, forming an integral part of the grinding space, uses the energy left after grinding in the system to enable a sharp sizing or separation of fine fractions.

Abstract: Two control rings (29a, 29b) are arranged between the cylinder (2) and lock body (1) which are provided with latch grooves (9) receiving that part of the latch (8) which prevents cylinder (2) rotating. The rotor housing has a latch channel (11) formed along the chord of the magnetic body (5) in the rotor (6) and can receive the other part of the latch (8) in a state of magnetic equilibrium determined by the magnets in the key (3) and the magnetic body (5). When a proper key (3) is fitted into the keyhole (10), the latch channel (11) is arranged partly in the rotor (6) housing and partly in the rotor support (4): in this position the cylinder is freely rotatable. When the proper key (3) is removed, the latch channel (11) in the rotor housing is outside the line of action of the latch (8), the latch (8) being arranged in the rotor support (4) and in the latch grooves (9) of the control rings (29a, 29b).
