  • Patent number: 7152589
    Abstract: Upon cleaning of crankcase gas generated during operation of an internal combustion engine in its crankcase, a centrifugal separator is used, which includes a rotor arranged for rotation by means of a driving motor and arranged by its rotation suck crankcase gas from the crankcase through a conduit to the centrifugal separator. During operation of the combustion engine a parameter, e.g. a measurement of the load on the combustion engine is sensed, the magnitude of said parameter being related to the amount of crankcase gas generated per unit of time in the crankcase. Depending upon a sensed change of the sensed parameter the rotational speed of the rotor of the centrifugal separator is changed in a way such that the gas pressure in the crankcase is maintained at a predetermined value, or within a predetermined pressure interval, during the operation of the combustion engine.

  • Publication number: 20040067356
    Abstract: Coating composition comprising mineral pigment, for creating a matt or silk coated paper with decreased ink scuff tendency. The coating composition also comprises organic particles, which particles in an amount of 0.5-9.5 weight-% calculated on said mineral pigment, exhibit a particle size of more than 2 &mgr;m and at the most 50 &mgr;m. The invention also relates to a paper which is coated with said coating composition.

  • Patent number: 5914413
    Abstract: The invention concerns a gas filter unit or cartridge type, including a filter material put together to form one or several filter bags, and a support frame of essentially U-shaped cross-sectional configuration, including a web portion and two lateral leg members in adjoining relationship, the filter material closest to the mouths of the filter bags being clamped in position between said lateral leg members. In accordance with the invention, the frame includes profile sections of a flexible material, preferably a plastics material, at least one of said lateral leg members being hingedly interconnected with the web portion, in addition to which locking means are provided to retain the corresponding lateral leg member in its clamping position in which it is pivoted into engagement with the other lateral leg member.
