Abstract: A shower caddy includes a 4-way diverter for attachment to a shower arm and to divert water received from the shower arm to a circuit of pipes within the shower caddy. The shower caddy further includes a heating circuit within a basin. The basin holds bathing fluids, and the heating circuit transfers heat from water traveling via the circuit of pipes to the bathing fluids within the basin. The shower caddy further includes an additive infuser attached to the circuit of pipes that infuses an additive into the water flowing through the circuit of pipes when the additive infuser is activated by a user. The circuit of pipes is further connected to a showerhead that outputs the water received from the shower arm following it being used for the heating circuit and/or having an additive infused therein.

Abstract: An Adventure Learning venue for a plurality of human participants having a range of binocular has a data communication network. A display is connected to the data communication network, the display being configurable to display a plurality of images around the participants in the participants' range of binocular vision. There is also at least one sound transducer connected to the data communication network, configured to provide sound that appears to be from more than a single direction to each of the participants. The venue has a plurality of participant seats, each participant seat comprising at least one interface control, one seat-based display, and one seat-based interface device, connectable to the data communication network. The venue also has a workstation for a facilitator connectable to the data communication network; the facilitator workstation being configured to exert control over the content provided the display and the sound transducer to the participants.

Abstract: An ignition system for an internal combustion engine, having a combustion chamber and a fuel injection device which injects a fuel directly into the combustion chamber in stream-guided fashion, is configured so that the ignition system has a positive polarity.

Abstract: A fuel-injection system including a fuel injector, having a plurality of spray-discharge orifices, which meters fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine, has an ignition device, which projects into the combustion chamber, this ignition device having at least one first pole and one second pole. The fuel jets emerging from the spray-discharge orifices spread an essentially cone-shaped fuel fan below the region of the ignition device. The end of the at least one first pole is arranged to the side adjacent to the end of the second pole projecting into the combustion chamber, and both ends are located on approximately the same level of the longitudinal axis of the ignition device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process and a device for decontaminating waters, especially groundwaters, which are heavily and complexly polluted with organic halogen compounds (HHC), in which process the contaminated waters are pre-treated in order to convert low-volatility HHC into more readily volatile components, the halogenated hydrocarbons are subsequently transferred from the aqueous phase to the gaseous phase where complete conversion into halogen-free compounds takes place at elevated temperature by means of catalytic reductive dehalogenation.

Abstract: A fuel injector for the direct injection of fuel into a combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine includes an energizable actuator, a valve needle, which is in operative connection with the actuator and acted upon by a restoring spring in a closing direction to actuate a valve-closure member, which, together with a valve-seat surface formed on a valve-seat body, forms a sealing seat; and includes at least two spray-discharge orifices which are formed in the valve-seat body. At an outer side, facing the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine, of the valve-seat body, a coating is formed and/or the maximum number of spray-discharge orifices is eight and/or a clearance between the valve-closure member and the valve-seat body is smaller than 20 ?m and/or the spray-discharge orifices widen in a spray-discharge direction of the fuel.

Abstract: In a method for operating an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle, in particular, pressurized fuel is conveyed to a fuel accumulator. The fuel is injected into a combustion chamber via a fuel injector. Coking of the fuel injector is determined. A first fuel-pressure increase is implemented when the coking exceeds a threshold value.

Abstract: A computer readable medium stores a computer program for interactive training based on a simulated customer interaction. The computer readable medium includes a dialog code segment that provides a predetermined customer portion of a dialog segment from the simulated customer interaction to a trainee. The dialog segment includes the customer portion and at least one predetermined keyword associated with the customer portion. The computer readable medium further includes a response code segment, which receives a response to the customer portion from the trainee, and a determining code segment, which determines whether the response includes the at least one keyword.
