Publication number: 20230380437Abstract: A method for smear-ripening a cheese is disclosed. The method includes a step of applying an envelope on a freshly brined cheese which is in direct physical contact with the surface of the cheese and which is permeable for metabolites produced by microorganisms and for microorganisms themselves and for components of the cheese and for gaseous elements, in particular surrounding air, followed by ripening the cheese within the envelope. A cheese obtained by the method is less susceptible to develop an off-odour after storage in a packaging material, in particular an air-tight packaging material, than a comparable cheese that was not produced according to the above method. Furthermore, such cheese typically contains a residual smear layer of not more than 10% of a comparable cheese.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2021Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: EIDGENÖSSISCHES DEPARTEMENT FÜR WIRTSCHAFT, BILDUNG UND FORSCHUNG (WBF) AGROSCOPEInventors: Helena STOFFERS, Hans-Peter BACHMANN, Karl SCHAFROTH

Patent number: 9851033Abstract: Component connector for connecting cylindrical components includes an elastic sleeve which surrounds the components, the elastic sleeve can be braced, a radially deformable fixing sleeve is provided which encloses elastic sleeve. Elastic sleeve is braced via radial deformation of fixing sleeve in a perpendicular direction to a longitudinal axis of fixing sleeve, and at least one clamping ring is provided for radially deforming fixing sleeve. Fixing sleeve has a profiled outer wall and clamping ring has an oppositely profiled inner wall so clamping ring can be pushed concentrically onto fixing sleeve in an accurately fitting manner, during a relative rotation of clamping ring, placed in an accurately fitting manner, in a closing direction, the fixing sleeve can be deformed radially inwardly by the surface profiling; and, during a relative rotation of clamping ring counter to the closing direction, the surface profiling prevents any rotation.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2014Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: Arnold Jäger Holding GmbHInventors: Hans-Peter Bachmann, Stefan Babel

Patent number: 7028976Abstract: A closing body is mounted in an axially displaceable manner in a bore of a fluidic valve to control a pressure medium flowing via the valve. The closing body has a sealing section, interacting with a seating edge of valve, and a guide section which serves to guide the valve cone in the bore. The guide section is provided with recesses which allow an overflow of pressure medium between the two sides of the closing body. To reduce costs of production, the guide section of the closing body is of cylindrical form and its surface is provided with at least one helical groove which leads from one side of the guide section to its other side. The closing body is useful in particular in constant pressure valves for controlling fluid pressure medium. The sealing section of the closing body is normally of conical form.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2002Date of Patent: April 18, 2006Assignee: Bosch Rexroth AGInventors: Peter Bachmann, Uwe Künzinger, Holger Mühlhoff, Hans Wölfges

Patent number: 5436673Abstract: Memories are provided for correction signal values respectively for a hue signal, a saturation signal and a luminance signal derived from a digital color television signal. Each of the memories consists of two memory units which are alternately used for storing new correction signal values and for reading out previously stored correction signal values. The corrected signal values are modified by a key signal, if present, in each case and are then supplied to calculation circuits to each of which a signal derived from the saturation signal is applied. The resulting fully corrected hue and saturation signals are converted back into color difference signals, but the finally corrected luminance signal requires no conversion. The raw correction signal values are supplied from a computer into which control magnitudes can be entered to produce them. These control magnitudes can be used to define corner points of a deflected line function from which the correction signals are derived.Type: GrantFiled: February 16, 1994Date of Patent: July 25, 1995Assignee: BTS Broadcast Television Systems GmbHInventors: Peter Bachmann, Dieter Poetsch
