Abstract: The present invention relates to an integrated process for recovering tomato juice from tomato pomace as well as biologically dehydrating and stabilizing it. The innovative process developed involves four main steps: separation by dissolution in an aqueous matrix compatible with human feed, solid-liquid separation, filtration cake washing and thermal dehydration. The tomato juice resulting from the developed process is intended to be incorporated into the tomato concentrates of the tomato: processing industry. The dehydrated tomato pomace is a biologically stable product and can be used in ruminant and non-ruminant animal feed and as raw material for biotechnological and pharmaceutical applications.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a laryngoscope composed by a standard blade (18) equipped with an optical fiber and is articulated in the pin (17) located in the laryngoscope head (41); the main body (42), were are all the electronic components and sensors are installed being closed by the handle cover (43). The laryngoscope has wireless communication capability and can communicate with a remote computer or other portable devices where a designed application is used to monitoring, visualization and recording all acquired data. The device has an inertial unit (24) to determine its spatial orientation according to the three main axis. The sound or/and visual alarms (13, 1) correspondent to an eventual excessive force compared to a certain predefined level are available in the laryngoscope handle head (41) or in the remote0 computer or mobile device. The laryngoscope includes also a LED to illuminate oral cavity, with variable intensity according to the user needs.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is a device for measuring skinfold thickness digitally instrumented for reading the thickness of skin folds and possessing wireless data communication capability with a remote station (for example, a personal computer) in which is installed a software application integrating a database. The developed device utilizes working principles distinct from those available in the market, in particular uses a constant force actuator (11) integrated in the device handle (12A), whose primary function is to impose a constant contact pressure between the end tip faces (1A and 1B) and the skinfold under measurement.

Abstract: A moisture vapor permeable metalized composite sheet is formed by coating a moisture vapor permeable sheet with at least one metal layer and at least one outer organic coating layer. The moisture vapor permeability of the composite sheet is at least about 80% of the moisture vapor permeability of the starting sheet. The composite sheet provides a barrier to air and liquid water infiltration while having high moisture vapor permeability and good thermal barrier properties. The composite sheet material is suitable for use as a building construction wrap such as roof lining and house wrap.

Abstract: A lamp holder has a socket housing forming a seat centered on an axis, and a contact fitted to the seat and formed unitarily with a pair of opposite generally axially extending sides flanking the axis. A front finger extending generally axially from one of the sides has a pair of opposite edges and therebetween a face directed radially toward the axis and pressing the lamp contact pin transversely of the axis against the other side. A back finger extending from the other side offset laterally from the front finger has an outer edge juxtaposed with the one side. The conductive core is pinched between the outer edge and the one side laterally adjacent the front finger and bears laterally against one of the edges of the front finger.

Abstract: A lamp holder has a contact spring which, instead of being bent into a U-shape and having its barb on the bracing shank opposite the retaining shank, has a bracing barb or lug bent out of the retaining shank itself and engageable as an indexing member behind a projection formed on the lamp housing.
