Abstract: The present invention concerns a device for controlling the radiotherapy treatment of cancer patients, comprising a gas chamber (10) with flat and parallel electrodes (7), placed at a certain distance (d), a window (2) placed above an electrode (7) and insulating means (4, 5, 6) placed below the electrode (7). The chamber (10) is connected to a collector (8) through which a noble gas is introduced into a cavity (11) of the chamber (10), so that the electric field inside the chamber (10) is due to the polarisation of the chamber (10) and to the charges generated by the radiation pulse. The invention also concerns the related control method.

Abstract: Described is a device for radiotherapy treatment with a high dose rate of ionizing radiation, comprising an accelerating guide (11) of a medical radiofrequency accelerator, at least two simultaneously thermostated resonant cavities (10) and comprising a first pick-up (12), a second pick-up (12B) in at least two resonant cavities (10) and an optical system (20) of the beam.

Abstract: The invention relates to a—in particular—hydrous, sweat-absorbing cosmetic product, e.g. a deodorant, containing a sweat-absorbing complex. The invention also relates to a method for the production of said complex and said cosmetic product. The cosmetic product of the invention includes i) a base formulation, and ii) a sweat-absorbing complex comprising (a) at least one water-absorbing component, (b) at least one surface-active agent, c) at least one electrolyte, and (d) at least one solvent and/or at least one vehicle. The sweat-absorbing complex in the base formulation is present in the form of emulsified particles. The particles consist of a three-dimensional, water-swellable network of said at least one water-absorbing component and are at least partially covered with said at least one surface-active agent. Said at least one electrolyte is incorporated at least partially in the interstices of the three-dimensional network of said at least one water-absorbing component.

Abstract: The invention relates to a preferably water-free sweat-absorbing cosmetic product, e.g. an antiperspirant, containing a base formulation and a sweat-absorbing complex. The invention also relates to a method for the production of said complex and said cosmetic product. The cosmetic product of the invention includes i) a base formulation, and ii) a sweat-absorbing complex comprising (a) at least one water-absorbing component, (b) at least one surface-active agent, and (c) optionally a solvent and/or a vehicle. The sweat-absorbing complex in the base formulation is present in the form of emulsified particles. The particles consist of a three-dimensional, water-swellable network of said at least one water-absorbing component and are at least partially covered with said at least one surface-active agent.

Abstract: Decorative cosmetic product having a high water content The invention relates to a decorative cosmetic product having a high water content. The product comprises 70-92% by weight of water, 2.0-30% by weight of pigments, 2-8% by weight of a gel-forming agent with emulsifying properties comprising a mixture of sodium acrylate copolymers, hydrogenated polyisobutene, plant-based phospholipids, a polyglyceryl acylate and an oil, and the remainder up to 100% of said product is made up of cosmetic auxiliaries, carriers, active agents or mixtures thereof. Despite of the cooling effect the product with a stabile cosmetic formula has an extraordinary transfer stability. In the case of lipsticks, a glossy product is obtained with accordingly good transfer stability.

Abstract: A cosmetic formulation with a swelling or volumizing effect, for use especially as a lipstick or other type of cosmetic, comprising:a) a sodium polyacrylate polymer that swells numerous times beyond its original volume upon contact with moisture or water;b) an emollient comprising cosmetically-acceptable oils, esters, liquid silicones and their mixtures within a range of 0.1-95 percent;c) a wax comprising carnauba wax, candelilla wax, ozocerite, ceresin, paraffin, synthetic wax, bees wax, montan wax and mixtures thereof within a range of 0.1-50 weight percent;d) an oil comprising castor oil, lanolin oil, synthetic oil, silicone oil and mixtures thereof within a range of 0.5-90 weight percent; ande) additional agents and adjuvants such as antioxidants, fats, fatty acid esters, lanolin, lanolin derivatives, dyes, pigments, perfume, protective agents, mica, talcum, silicon dioxide and synthetic resins that comprise a remaining portion of up to 100 weight percent.

Abstract: A kite includes a flat body portion which is formed from a thin sheet of a rigid lightweight material, such as styrofoam or balsa. The body portion may be formed in any desired shape which is symmetric about a vertical axis, such as a heart or a star. A slot is formed through the body portion and extends along a portion of such vertical axis. The slot is provided to releasably attach a forwardly extending keel portion to the body portion. The keel portion is formed from the same rigid lightweight material as the body portion. The keel portion includes a tab which is inserted through the slot to attach the keel portion to the body portion to form the kite. The keel portion further includes an aperture through which a string may be tied to the kite. One or more smaller slots may be formed through a lower region of the body portion to permit a tail to be secured to the kite.

Abstract: For accurate correlation of the punch pins and edge guide for a paper punch or the like, a gage sheet of predetermined length is formed with accurately located holes corresponding to the desired location of the holes or slots to be punched in paper of similar length (e.g., end holes equidistant from top and bottom of the sheets). Such gage sheet may be pre-punched and of a permanent character, or may be prepared by trial and error by adjusting the edge guide until the end holes are equidistant from the edges of the sheet. The punch pins are lined up with the gage holes and then the edge guide is moved snugly against the edge of the gage. The gage is then removed. The edge guide is mounted on a transversely movable slide visible through a window in the platen on which the paper is to rest. Markings for different paper lengths may be permanently displayed on the platen at an edge of the window. Markings on the platen may be affixed by applying thereto a decal having paper length markings thereon.

Abstract: A recording medium alignment guide at the development station automatically seats and adjusts for proper tolerances relative to the developer fountain assembly to properly guide the recording medium from the recording station through the development station maintaining the recording medium at the proper height above the surface of the developer fountain assembly.

Abstract: Recording machine such as electrostatic printer/plotter or facsimile plotter includes housing construction and associated operating components whereby overall external width reduction is accomplished without loss of function using liftable lid and method of cross-bracing.
