Abstract: The present invention relates to a roller mill for coffee, a method for grinding coffee, and an application of grinding rollers for grinding coffee. In order to grind coffee, conventionally metal rollers are used which are subject to heavy wear and adversely affect the taste of the coffee. The object of the invention is to provide a roller mill for coffee, a method of grinding coffee and a corresponding application thereof that avoids these disadvantages. This is achieved by means of a roller mill for coffee with grinding rollers in opposite directions and having granite surfaces at a peripheral velocity ratio of the rollers 1:1.5 to 1.4, and by means of a corresponding application and corresponding method.

Abstract: The invention relates to an assembly device (1) and to a method to reliably mount containers (3) fitted with a self-supporting structure (4), in particular plastic containers (3) for liquid media and chemicals such as liquid engine-fuels, for affixation on stationary or displaceable supports (2). The method comprises the steps: affixing conduits to a support (2); affixing the container (3) on the support (2); and connecting the container (3) to the conduits; where the step of assembling the container (3) to the support (2) includes affixing one connector part (8) each on the support (2) and on the container (3) as well as joining to each other the connector parts (8). Preferably the connector part (8) shall be affixed on the support (2) before the step of affixing the conduits. The assembly device (1) comprises means with which to carry out said method.

Abstract: The invention relates to an active substance-containing plaster for the controlled administration of active substances to the skin, which has a back and a skin side, with a back layer, an active substance reservoir divided substantially perpendicularly to the skin contact surface of the plaster and having one or more active substances, a contact adhesive device on the skin side and optionally a cover layer detachable prior to the application of the plaster, whereas at least one active substance reservoir part (12) is detachable from the skin, while leaving behind one or more active substance reservoir parts (13) on the skin. For this object there is provided that the part of the active substance reservoir remaining on the skin is having a better adhesion to the skin than to the back layer (11).

Abstract: The invention relates to a self-adhesive, plasticizer-containing laminate consisting ofa) a film-forming polymeric layer containing dyestuffs and/or pigments,b) a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, andc) a removable, preferably siliconized protective film covering the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer,the film-forming polymeric layer a) of which is at least entirely covered by a layer being resistant towards the other components of the laminate and towards the materials used in the production of the laminate. The invention further relates to the use of said laminate as artificial nails applicable to toenails or fingernails.

Abstract: The invention relates to a patch for transdermal administration of volatile pharmaceutically active ingredients of chemically basic nature which comprises a multi-element system comprising(a) a matrix having distributed therein as the drug said volatile active ingredient or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof, the matrix comprising a pressure-sensitive adhesive,(b) an element of a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition which--where (a) contains a salt--contains basic groups to liberate the free base from its salt,(c) a backing layer impermeable to the diffusable ingredients of (a) and (b), and(d) a release liner impermeable to the diffusable ingredients of (a) and (b),matrix (a) or at least a part of (b), whichever is in contact with release liner (d), having a tack sufficient for affixing the patch to the skin, any part of (b) positioned between matrix (a) and release liner (d) being permeable for the deprenyl or the salt thereof or both.

Abstract: A transdermal system employing a basic active component-permeable, pressure sensitive adhesive polymer material, particularly for use with basic active components for use in transdermal administration of systemically or topically acting medicaments constituted by such active components. The adhesive polymer is a homopolymer or copolymer produced using basic monomers preferably on an acrylate base. A process for production of the polymer material comprises mixing monomers suitable for the production of an adhesive by polymerization with basic monomers which can be polymerized and copolymerizing the mixture. The adhesive composition is in particular useful with basic active components in salt form and in which the therapeutically active agent is a Lewis base.

Abstract: A transdermal therapeutic system is disclosed which comprises an optional flexible backing layer, one or more drug reservoir(s), one or more adhesive layer(s) and optionally a detachable protective layer for the skin contact surface of the flat therapeutical system. The skin contact area of the therapeutical system is a skin contact layer which has one or more non-adhesive drug-releasing section(s) and one or more skin-adhesion section(s), which optionally contain a further drug. A process is disclosed for the production of the system, as well as the use thereof for local or systemic, transdermal administration of drugs in human or veterinary medicine or in cosmetics.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a flat laminate part consisting of a substrate layer and a cover layer having an auxiliary pull-off means to so pull-off said cover layer or parts of said cover layer said auxiliary pull-off means comprising a preset cut or cuts or a preset breaking line or lines in said cover layer, said auxiliary pull-off means being improved by having a stiffened area in the surrounding of the preset cuts or preset breaking lines in order to facilitate the producing of the grasp parts for pulling off said cover layer or parts of said cover layer.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for producing a composite tubular member of two or more plastic materials. The product tubular member is leach and acid resistant and has inner and outer layers of thermoplastic material and an intermediate layer of a thermosetting resins. The process comprises the steps of: disposing a first layer of a thermoplastic material about a heated winding element for forming the inner layer, wherein the first layer is formed of polyvinylidene fluoride; fusing overlapping adjacent edges of the layer of polyvinylidene fluoride; disposing a second intermediate layer of a thermosetting resin about the inner layer of polyvinylidene fluoride; disposing a third outer layer of polypropylene about the second layer of the thermosetting resin; and fusing the outer layer of polypropylene to the intermediate and inner layers of the thermosetting resin and the polyvinylidene fluoride, respectively.

Abstract: Sheets produced by the extrusion of a mixture of about 85 - 95 percent by weight of polystyrene or semi-impact-resistant polystyrene and about 5 - 15 percent by weight of a diene-styrene block copolymer having the structure S-B-S wherein S represents the styrene structure and B represents the butadiene or isoprene structure are used for the manufacture of molded articles in the vacuum-forming or thermoforming method.
