Abstract: This invention provides pellets for a coffee drink comprising composition components selected from a group of coffee flavours, foam forming materials, binders, flavour enhancement materials, sugars and sweeteners. Ratio or composition and date of manufacturing of the pellets are impressed on each pellet for identification.

Abstract: An electronic interface (10) between a pure NMR receiver resonator (RO) and a preamplifier is characterized in that one or more control diodes (Dmatch1, Dtune1) are provided by means of which the current designed to flow through the switching diodes can be fed into these switching diodes, and the control diodes are connected to the switching diodes directly or via one or more additional series impedances. In this fashion, the impedance of the resonator is transformed to the required preamplifier or line impedance during the receiving process with little loss. In particular, during the receiving process, matching can be adjusted during the transmitting process, the current in the inductance of the resonator generated by the B1 field of the transmitting resonator is minimized and all components are protected against damage.

Abstract: An electrical circuit with one or more semiconductor components (10) is characterized in that at least one semiconductor junction of at least one of the semiconductor components of the electrical circuit is disposed such that the average direction of motion of the charge carriers in the semiconductor junction is essentially parallel to the lines of force of the magnetic field B0, wherein the corresponding semiconductor component is disposed directly on a substrate (12), which is made of a material with good thermal conduction properties. In this way, undistorted characteristics of the semiconductor component used can be ensured despite the very strong magnetic field and the low operating temperatures.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for conveying material hanging on hangers. The material is transported from a loading region to a conveyance region, and then to a delivery region. Grip units of various lengths are formed by combining individual materials into groups. A theoretical maximum length for a grip unit is established. Clock pulses are produced in the conveyance region and are counted. Grip units stowed in the loading region are individualized to form well-defined spaces between the materials. Individualized grip units fed to the conveyance region are switched into the conveyance region when a gap sufficiently large to accommodate the grip unit is present in the conveyance region, determined by the maximum length established and counting of the clock pulses. The distance to be moved by the grip unit in the conveyance region to reach its destination is established, and progress of the grip unit is tracked.
