Abstract: A method for colouring hair. The method comprises the formation of a first plurality of coated hair fibre portions by applying a first composition to a first plurality of hair fibre portions and subsequently styling the hair. The first plurality of coated hair fibre portions is contacted with a second plurality of coated hair fibre portions but does not comprise the application of a solid barrier means in order to separate the first plurality of coated hair fibre portions from the second plurality of coated hair fibre portions. The composition comprises from about 0.2% to about 20% of viscosity-increasing agent and the viscosity-increasing agent is selected from the group consisting of: clays; polysaccharides; silicas; block copolymers of polypropylene oxide (PPO) and polyethylene oxide (PEO); and mixtures thereof. Also provided are a hair colouring composition being in ready to use form, the use of the composition, a developing formulation, and a process for creating a hair colouring composition.

Abstract: A component of a rolling-element bearing, such as a bearing inner ring having an inner ring flange, a bearing outer ring having an outer ring flange or a rolling element having an end surface, includes a solid slide layer having a lower coefficient of friction than a material to which the slide layer is attached which slide layer reduces frictional contact between the component and another component against which the slide layer slides during bearing operation.

Abstract: An injection-molded rolling-element bearing cage has a radially outer-lying surface, a radially inner-lying surface, first and second radial walls connecting the radially outer-lying surface and the radially inner-lying surface, and a plurality of receiving pockets configured to receive rolling elements. The receiving pockets are spaced from the first radial wall by a first annular band of the radially inner-lying surface and from the second radial wall by a second annular band of the radially inner-lying surface, and at least one projection extends radially inward from the radially inner-lying surface into a spaced defined by the radially inner-lying surface, at least part of the at least one projection being located in the first annular band.

Abstract: An apparatus has a corrugating device through which a pipe is moved producing corrugation in the circumferential direction of the pipe by rotation. The corrugating device has a corrugator head which is rotatable about its axis, and a hollow shaft on which the corrugator head is firmly fitted and via which the corrugator head is driveable in rotation. A vibration measuring means is connected mechanically to the corrugating device for automatically detecting mechanical vibrations of the rotating corrugating device. The vibration measuring means simultaneously detects measured values for vibrations of the hollow shaft which are characteristic of the state of the hollow shaft bearings and measured values for vibrations of the corrugator head which are characteristic of the balancing thereof. A display apparatus displays the measured values detected thereby and/or evaluation results based on the measured values is furthermore provided.

Abstract: A method and system for assisting customers in determining a best retail store location, reaching the location and obtaining assistance from a retail store associate at the location is disclosed. The method employs mobile communication device hardware, software and communication network infrastructure as well as near-field transmitters and receivers to achieve beacon orientation and location functionality.
