Abstract: The invention relates to methods of producing microfibrillated cellulose (MFC). According to the invention a fibrous pulp suspension is fibrillated mechanically at a consistency of less than 12.5%, dewatered to raise the consistency of the fibrillated suspension to at least 12.5%, and then subjected in the dewatered condition to further fibrillation. Alternatively an initially fibrillated fibrous pulp suspension may be dewatered and fibrillated in the dewatered condition, after which these dewatering and fibrillating steps are repeated one or more times so that pulp consistency is increased for each fibrillation step. The goals of raising the consistency between subsequent fibrillations are energy saving and an increased aspect ratio in MFC. The invention even comprises uses of the MFC product, e.g. as an additive for papermaking furnish or injection molded plastic composites.

Abstract: An arrangement in an anesthesia apparatus, the anesthesia apparatus comprising a filling device located by a vaporizer and an anesthetic bottle that fits the filling device, the filling device being provided with a valve device, which is arranged to open and close as needed. To provide a controlled discharging of anesthetic, the arrangement comprises a discharge space, which is connected to an interspace formed between the anesthetic bottle and the valve device located in the filling device when the anesthetic bottle is being pulled outward, and a closing member, which, as a result of the anesthetic bottle being pulled outward, is arranged to open a flow connection between the interspace and the discharge space before the connection between the anesthetic bottle and the filling device opens.

Abstract: An arrangement in connection with anaesthetic devices which comprise at least two module units, which are integrated to function together, and data transmission between the module units is carried out by means of a connector arrangement, which comprises contact means arranged in both module units. To provide a durable connector arrangement at least one of the connector means is mobile so that when the module units and thereby the contact means are moved close to one another, the mobile contact means moves so that it comes into contact with the contact means in the other module unit as a result of magnetising force.

Abstract: An arrangement in an anesthesia vaporizer comprising a liquid container including a vapor generator; a filling device; and conduits for supplying anesthetic from a transport and storage container to the liquid container and/or for removing anesthetic from the liquid container, and for conveying an amount of replenishment gas corresponding to the amount of anesthetic liquid from the liquid container to the transport and storage container upon filling the container and/or inversely upon emptying. For improved operating safety, the filling device is provided with a closing means, adapted to close a filling conduit which opens to the inside of the liquid container and a replenishment gas conduit between the liquid container and the transport and storage container through an overpressure generated in the transport and storage container, and thus prevent anesthetic liquid from flowing to the liquid container.

The intermediate container is arranged to form a common conduit for the anaesthetic liquid and the gas removed from the container, and to combine the liquid flow outlet level and the gas flow outlet level in such a way that the anaesthetic liquid is allowed to flow into the anaesthetic liquid container only when the liquid flow outlet level is below the gas flow outlet level. The bent intermediate container may be located interiorly of, or exterior to, the anaesthetic liquid container.
