  • Patent number: 11920735
    Abstract: Method for thermal insulation of an evacuable container comprising an inner container, an outer container and a cavity disposed between the inner container and the outer container, wherein said method comprises a) using a vacuum pump to reduce a pressure in the cavity and after achieving a first value of the pressure interrupting the connection to the vacuum pump, b) subsequently making a connection from a reservoir container of the thermally insulating particulate material to a filling opening provided in the region of the cavity, c) setting the evacuable container into motion, wherein the thermally insulating particulate material flows into the cavity according to a) and the pressure in the cavity increases due to the air introduced with the thermally insulating particulate material, d) terminating the filling at a second value of the pressure by interrupting the connection from the cavity to the reservoir container, e) repeating step a), wherein the output of the vacuum pump with which the cavity is deaer

  • Publication number: 20230255249
    Abstract: A method of making a clear beverage concentrate, which comprises a nanoemulsion of a liquid flavour oil in an aqueous phase, comprising the emulsification of the flavour oil into water in the presence of an emulsifier, which emulsifier consists of at least 5% by weight quillaja saponins, optionally containing at least one other emulsifier, characterised in that, prior to emulsification, the pH of the aqueous phase is adjusted to 4.0 maximum. The method allows the preparation of beverages that not only are crystal-clear, but which also have substantially more of the full flavour of the original flavour oil.

  • Patent number: 6412939
    Abstract: Description of a method for printing non-porous surfaces of a substrate with a solvent-containing inkjet ink. Said method is characterized in that a non-porous, varnish-coated surface is printed with an inkjet ink containing a varnish-etching component. High resolution and excellent smudge and scratch resistance can hereby be attained. Beneficial three-color print is possible.

  • Patent number: 6189956
    Abstract: An industrial truck has a driver's cab with two, spaced-apart guides into which the upper and lower edges of the windshield are engaged. The windshield can be removed and replaced by bending or sliding the windshield to disengage the edges of the windshield from the guides. The windshield is held in place in the guides by fastening devices, such as hold-down plates located at the sides of the windshield.

  • Patent number: 6017967
    Abstract: The invention relates to a metal sulfide dispersion used for electroplating nonconductors such as substrates used for the formation of a printed circuit board. A printed circuit board made using the dispersion could have metallized through-holes comprising electrodeposited copper on the walls of the holes with an adsorbed layer of metal sulfide particles between the circuit board base material and the copper on the walls of the through-holes. The metal sulfide is characterized by spherical particles having a mean diameter of less than 100 nanometers and a particle size distribution where less than 10 percent of the particles within the dispersion have a diameter twice that of the mean diameter of all particles within the dispersion.
