Abstract: A nebulizer and a container with a fluid for such a nebulizer are described, the container comprising an indicator device fixedly mounted on the bottom of the container, the indicator device stopping further use of the container in a locked state when a predetermined number of uses has been reached or exceeded, and when the nebulizer is partially opened, it is blocked against further use, and after replacement of the container including the indicator device, the nebulizer can be used again.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for nebulizing preferably powdered medicinal formulations, the nebulization being assisted by propellant. According to the invention, the propellant is supplied in pulsed form to the powder cavity (1) containing the formulation, which is attached to the nozzle (3) from which the aerosol is emitted. The apparatus according to the invention provides an increase in the fraction of pulmonary particles in the aerosol leaving the nozzle (3).

Abstract: Systems and methods for producing a tiger nut beverage are described. The systems and methods may include mixing a tiger nut extract in powder form with one or more additives; combining the mixed tiger nut extract in powder form and the one or more additives with water to create a tiger nut syrup; flash pasteurizing the tiger nut syrup; and mixing the tiger nut syrup with water to create a finished tiger nut beverage. A composition including tiger nut liquid subject to flash pasteurization is also described.

Abstract: An arrangement for monitoring pressure pulses in gas/particulate material media flowing through pipelines and/or containers includes an annular metallic housing which surrounds a flow passage and has in its interior an annular chamber which extends around the flow passage and is separated therefrom by a barrier layer of a wear resistant and porous material. Connecting ports for connecting the annular chamber respectively to a pulse conduit leading to a pressure measuring device and to a source of a rinsing gas open into the annular chamber.

Abstract: An extrusion die for a blow head for making blown plastic films comprises inner and outer rings, which are made of a ferrous material, particularly steel, and define between them an annular orifice. Those surfaces of the inner and outer rings which define the die orifice are covered by a layer consisting of a metallic material having a higher thermal conductivity than steel.

Abstract: A Venturi tube which is especially suited for the differential pressure measurement of flowing gas/particulate material media with high dust loading at temperatures exceeding 100.degree. C. and at elevated pressures includes a pressure-resistant metallic jacket and an inner lining of wear-resistant porous material which is accommodated in the jacket and bounds a flow-through passage with the Venturi configuration. Respective annular chambers are situated at the inlet region and at the smallest-diameter region of the flow-through passage, there annular chambers being separated from the flow-through passage by respective layers of wear-resistant porous material and being connected by respective pulse conduit with a differential pressure measuring device.

Abstract: A nozzle ring of an extruder for blowing tubular plastics film is divided into cooling sectors provided with adjusting elements. The thicknesses of the blown film are measured over the circumference thereof and a number of film sectors of equal circumferential length corresponding to the number of cooling sectors is established from the measured thicknesses. Assuming that the film sector of maximum or minimum thickness has been extruded in the correct position for the purpose of determining the cooling sector associated with the film sector, the subsequent film sectors are in turn allocated to successive cooling sectors. From the measurements, the mean thickness distributions are determined over the individual film sectors. These values of mean thickness distribution define a measure for the correcting command for the adjusting elements of the cooling sectors that are associated with the respective film sectors.

Abstract: A nozzle ring of an extruder for blowing tubular plastics film is divided into correcting sectors provided with adjusting elements. The thicknesses of the blown film are measured over the circumference thereof and a number of film sectors of equal cross-sectional area corresponding to the number of correcting sectors is established from the measured thicknesses. Assuming that the film sector of maximum or minimum thickness has been extruded in the correct position for the purpose of determining the correcting sector associated with the film sector, the subsequent film sectors of equal cross-sectional area are in turn allocated to successive correcting sectors. The throughput and cross-sectional area or temperature of the respective correcting sector is adjusted until the circumferential lengths of the film sectors are equal.

Abstract: A case for writing utensils and accessories consists of a base or receiving part into which the utensils and accessories fit, and a cover part which fits over the receiving part and projects upwardly from it. The upwardly projecting portion of the cover part forms an enclosed space into which the utensils and accessories can extend from the receiving part. The receiving part has protruberances extending outwardly from it which releasably interengage with openings in the cover part for locking the two parts together. A handle member is secured to the cover part so that the case can be easily carried.

Abstract: A method of pretreating raw water, for instance sea water, which is intended for supplying reverse osmosis units. An aqueous solution of acid salt and acid with the same anions is mixed with the raw water, whereby the most advantageous pH value is adjusted for the reverse osmosis, and whereby the acid salt is converted into the corresponding hydroxide. After possible addition of flocking or flaking additives, the resulting hydroxide flakes are separated, in a strongly concentrated form, by way of a centrifuge, particularly a plate or disc centrifuge, and together with fresh metal salt, are again brought into solution as a salt by means of the previously mentioned acid and, after mechanical purification in a second centrifuge, likewise particularly a plate or disc centrifuge, are again supplied to the raw water. The pretreated raw water leaves under pressure from the separator through which it flows and, alternatively, a chemical reducing agent may be added to this departing water flow.
