  • Patent number: 10191876
    Abstract: It is provided to implement a different number of logical slaves in a field device for use in an AS interface network as a function of the assigned address, which slaves may be addressed using the assigned address in the standard or in the expanded addressing mode. Thus, in a field device, it is possible to provide slaves having different profiles, via which different data types may be exchanged. Furthermore, a method is provided, with which a field device having different slaves is able to be addressed in a simple manner while avoiding double addressing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 4652442
    Abstract: In a process of producing a sustained release preparation containing indomethacin or niomethacin, the active ingredient in the form of a powder as well as one or more food grade substances having a solubility of at least 1 gram per 10 milliliters in an aqueous liquid at any pH value from 1 to 9 and a temperature of 37.degree. C., and one or more food grade substances having a solubility of at least 1 gram per 100 milliliters in an aqueous liquid at any pH value from 1 to 9 and a temperature of 37.degree. C. are thoroughly mixed and the resulting mixture is mixed with a solution of one or more food grade substances which in an aqueous liquid have(a) a solubility below 1 gram per 1000 milliliters in an aqueous liquid at any pH value from 1 to 9 and a temperature of 37.degree. C., or(b) a solubility below 1 gram per 1000 milliliters at a pH value of 1 and a temperature of 37.degree. C.
