Patent number: 8216342Abstract: A method for producing membranes which contain at least one solid layer on one side of a porous substrate by treating the side of the support, which is to be coated, with a synthetic solution that forms the solid layer. The inventive method is characterized in that the space located behind the side of the porous support, which is not to be coated, is filled with an inert fluid during the production of the solid layer on the porous support, “behind” being from the perspective of the support. The pressure and/or the temperature of the fluid is/are selected such that the synthetic solution is essentially prevented from entering in contact with the side of the porous support, which is not to be coated.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2005Date of Patent: July 10, 2012Assignee: BASF SEInventors: Stefan Bitterlich, Hartwig Voβ, Gunter Schuch, Armin Diefenbacher, Manfred Noack, Ronald Schäfer, Ingolf Voigt, Hannes Richter, Jürgen Caro

Patent number: 7802850Abstract: A seat for a motor vehicle, includes a backrest part and a seat part. The backrest part is configured to fold relative to the seat part from a normal position into a folded position and vice-versa. A lower seat structure is included and the seat is configured to move relative to the lower seat structure. At least one front first fastening, one rear second fastening and one diagonal fastening are provided to fasten the seat part to the lower seat structure. The seat is configured to adjust at least into an entry position and into a lowered position distinguishable from the normal position, and the second fastening is configured to release in the entry position. The diagonal fastening is configured to release in the lowered position.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2004Date of Patent: September 28, 2010Assignee: Johnson Controls GmbHInventors: Bernd Deiβmann, Hans-Jürgen Caro, Piotr Szablewski

Publication number: 20090200236Abstract: A process for the production of a composite membrane, one or more microporous separation layers comprising a zeolite of the MFI type being produced by hydrothermal synthesis on a porous substrate, wherein one or more additives from the group consisting of linear (C1-C4)-alcohols, ammonia, primary, secondary and tertiary amines having in each case (C1-C4)-alkyl radicals, (C1-C4)-aminoalcohols and (C3-C4)-ketones are added to the synthesis solution for the hydrothermal synthesis.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2007Publication date: August 13, 2009Applicant: BASF SEInventors: Armin Diefenbacher, Hartwig Voss, Gunter Schuch, Manfred Noack, Ingolf Voigt, Hannes Richter, Jürgen Caro

Publication number: 20090108239Abstract: The present invention relates to composite ceramic membranes for use in chemical processes such as the separation of molecules, sometimes referred to as molecular sieving, preferably in combination with chemical conversion of molecules selected from a composition of different molecules, e.g. the selective partial or full oxidation. The composite membrane of the invention offers a combination of molecular sieving and oxygen transport that makes the composite membrane suitable for the selective oxidation of hydrocarbons from a feed comprising a mixture hydrocarbons. The composite membrane of the invention comprises a first layer containing an oxygen transporting material (OTM), e.g. perovskite, and, in association with the first layer, a second layer, containing a molecular sieve layer, e.g. a zeolite.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2007Publication date: April 30, 2009Applicant: LEIBNIZ UNIVERSITAT HANNOVERInventors: Jurgen Caro, Haihui Wang, Manfred Noack, Peter Kolsch, Freek Kapteijn, Nick Kanellopoulos, John Nolan

Patent number: 6811198Abstract: The present invention concerns a system for storing cargo within a vehicle. The invention is characterized by a support device (2), attached or attachable in the cargo area (4) of the vehicle, for cargo receiving means (6). The support device (2) is pivotable, after the cargo receiving means (6) have been removed and/or collapsed flat, from a utilization position (A) lying on a cargo area floor (8), about a pivot axis (Y) extending in the vicinity of the cargo area floor (8) approximately parallel thereto, into a non-utilization position (B) lying approximately parallel to and in the vicinity of a vehicle partition (10) delimiting the cargo area (4), and thereby uncovering the vehicle floor (8).Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2003Date of Patent: November 2, 2004Assignee: Johnson Controls Technology CompanyInventors: Hans Jürgen Caro, Bernd Deissmann, Siggi Fischer, Dieter Handke, Ralf Hoge, Christian Schulz, Frank Müller
