Patent number: 10272587Abstract: A slicing machine may include a machine housing, which holds a drive motor for driving a rotating slicing blade. The slicing blade separates individual slices from preferably elongated foodstuffs, wherein these slices are deposited in a delivery area of the slicing machine. In the delivery area, a weighing device is provided, which determines the weight of the separated slices. To ensure that the slicing machine can be universally employed while having a compact design, it is provided that the slicing machine is of modular design in that the weighing device is configured as a separate modular unit, which can optionally be mechanically rigidly connected to the machine housing or can be removed therefrom.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2015Date of Patent: April 30, 2019Assignee: BIZERBA SE & CO. KGInventors: Michael Heck, Manfred Dinger

Patent number: 8197835Abstract: The present invention relates to biomedical foam articles for the wound sector which are formed by spraying a polymeric dispersion onto a wound. The polymeric dispersion being sprayed onto a wound surface forms a three-dimensional body which conforms to the spatial shape of the wound and which, as well as covering the wound surface, ensures a complete and accurately fitted packing of the wound in the depth dimension as well as the other dimensions. The biomedical foam articles of the present invention are particularly useful for treating chronic wounds.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2007Date of Patent: June 12, 2012Assignees: Bayer Innovation GmbH, Bayer Materialscience AGInventors: Melita Dietze, Burkhard Fugmann, Michael Mager, Thorsten Rische, Michael Heckes, Daniel Rudhardt, Rolf Gertzmann

Patent number: 4987684Abstract: A wellbore inertial directional surveying system for providing a complete directional survey of an oil or gas well borehole to determine the displacement in all three directions of the borehole path relative to the well head at the surface. The information generated by the present invention is especially useful when numerous wells are drilled to different geographical targets from a single off-shore platform. Accurate knowledge of the path of the borehole allows proper well spacing and provides assurance that target formations are reached. The tool is lowered down into a borehole on the electrical cable. A computer positioned on the surface communicates with the tool via the cable. The tool contains a sensor block which is supported on a single gimbal, the rotation axis of which is aligned with the cylinder axis of the tool and, correspondingly, the borehole.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 1982Date of Patent: January 29, 1991Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the United States Department of EnergyInventors: Ronald D.
