Abstract: A machine (1) for extracorporeal blood treatment comprises a device (2) for ultrafiltration of a liquid through a semi-permeable membrane (3) of a blood treatment device (4), a first sensor (11) for ultrafiltration rate through the membrane, a second group of sensors (13) for measuring a trans-membrane pressure, an infusion line (16) with an infusion pump (17) and a programmed controller (14) for calculating a maximum infusion rate as a function of the transmembrane pressure. The machine is suitable for kidney failure treatments, such as hemofiltration and hemodiafiltration. In a relatively short time the machine enables a large quantity of corporeal blood to be removed from the patient.

Abstract: Method for optimising the placement of at least two pieces of information in at least one display section of a display area managed by a system, wherein said system communicates with an Information Optimization Center through the sending and receiving of packets of instructions and/or requests, wherein said packets of instructions comprise data regarding a location of at least one piece of information and instructions regarding at least two pieces of information are sent in the same packet.

Abstract: A shank milling cutter includes a cutting portion which is intended to come into engagement with the workpiece, wherein the envelope surface of the cutting portion is substantially cylindrical. At least one major cutting edge is arranged at the peripheral surface of the cutting portion and at least one minor cutting edge (face cutting edge) is arranged at the end face of the cutting portion and with an end diameter D. The minor cutting edge, in projection onto a plane containing the milling cutter axis, has a convexly curved portion with a radius of curvature R>D/2 and a center of curvature M located such that a distance from the center of curvature M to the axis is in a range from zero to a value smaller than D/2.

Abstract: A rotary cutting tool includes a cutting part having helical grooves formed in an outer periphery thereof. Each groove forms a helix angle relative to the axis of rotation which gradually transforms into a smaller cutting face angle at a front end of the cutting action.

Abstract: The invention relates to a road surface marking tape intended for temporary use and being of the kind that includes a base layer of non-cured or non-vulcanized soft elastomeric material, and reinforcing material embedded in the base layer. The reinforcing material is comprised of short fibers of non-metallic material distributed generally uniformly in the base layer in an amount corresponding to 5-50%, preferably 10-20% of the weight of the base layer. The reinforcing material is preferably comprised of fibers of fabric, plastic or carbon with lengths generally between 0.5 and 5 mm, preferably between 1 and 3 mm. The elastomeric material is usually a rubber of the acrylnitrile-butadiene type.

Abstract: A tool tip and tool body assembly includes a tool tip having a first end for contacting a workpiece and a second end, the second end having a patterned surface of recesses and protrusions, and at least one through hole extending through the tool tip from the second end. A tool body has a first end having a patterned surface corresponding to the patterned surface of the tool tip for mating with the patterned surface of the tool tip, and at least one threaded hole adapted to align with the at least one through hole in the tool tip. At least one fastener having a threaded end and a securing end is provided, the fastener extending through the at least one through hole such that the securing end abuts against a surface in the at least one through hole, the threaded end mating with threads in the threaded hole. Torque is transmitted between the tool tip and the tool body solely by the at least one fastener and the patterned surface of the tool tip and the patterned surface of the tool body.
