  • Publication number: 20240041717
    Abstract: The invention relates to a disinfecting, skin-tolerable, superfatting care agent for application to the skin or for treatment of the skin, containing one or more disinfecting active substances. According to the invention, water-soluble chlorine derivatives and/or an alcohol are integrated into a base matrix and additionally a substance mixture for masking the odor of the disinfecting active substances is contained.

  • Publication number: 20080078540
    Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (1), in particular a charge intercooler or coolant cooler for motor vehicles, which comprises a soldered block which is made of pipes (4), ribs and at least one pipe base (2), in addition to at least one plastic box (3) which has a wall (3a) which extends in the cross-section and which is approximately U shaped and a surrounding flange (3b). The box is mechanically connected to the pipe base over flange (3b). According to the disclosure, reinforcing ribs are arranged on the inner side of the plastic box (3) in a transition area between the flange (3b) and the wall (3a).

  • Patent number: 7097347
    Abstract: A novel mixing apparatus and process for mixing at least two fluids are disclosed. Excellent mixing and superior pressure drop characteristics are achieved in a device comprising at least two supply channels to feed a mixing chamber and create a vortex. The alignment of the supply channels is such that fluids are introduced into the chamber at both tangential and radial directions. In the case of gas/liquid mixing, particularly advantageous is the injection of the liquid stream tangentially and the gas stream radially. When two liquid streams are mixed, it is desirable to distribute them into fine, interdigitated channels prior to introduction into a supply channel and finally into the chamber. The mixed stream is generally withdrawn from the center of the swirling vortex and in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the vortex.

  • Patent number: 6935768
    Abstract: The invention relates to a procedure and a micromixer for mixing at least two fluids. The aim of the invention is to reduce the mixing time of the micromixer compared to micromixers known to the art while maintaining high mixing quality and small structural dimensions. The inventive procedure is characterized by the following steps: a plurality of separated fluid currents of both fluids are brought together and alternately adjacent fluid lamellae of both fluids are formed: the combined fluid currents are carried away and a focused total fluid current is formed; the focused total fluid current is fed as fluid jet into an expansion chamber; and the resulting mixture is drawn off. The micromixer comprises a plurality of alternately adjacent fluid channels which open into an inlet chamber. A focusing channel is in fluid connection with said inlet chamber and opens into an expansion chamber.

  • Patent number: 6863867
    Abstract: A novel apparatus for mixing and reacting at least two fluids are disclosed. Excellent mixing and superior pressure drop characteristics are achieved in a device comprising at least two supply channels to feed a mixing chamber and create a vortex. The alignment of the supply channels is such that fluids are introduced into the chamber at both tangential and radial directions. In the case of gas/liquid mixing, particularly advantageous is the injection of the liquid stream tangentially and the gas stream radially. Reaction of the fluids can take place within the mixing chamber or in a separate reactor in fluid communication with the mixing chamber outlet. The mixer/reactor apparatus is especially useful for reactions where rapid diffusion is critical.
