Abstract:
The present invention relates to a heat exchanger for recovering heat contained in a first flowable material. The heat exchanger comprises at least a first and a further receiving receptacle, each with a cavity for receiving the first flowable material. The heat exchanger further comprises means for absorbing heat arranged to form at least a part of the bottom part of the receiving receptacles. The first flowable material is discharged from the first receiving receptacle and brought in contact with at least a portion of the bottom part of the further receptacle using means for directing said first flowable material in a direction not coinciding with the direct path towards the second drain. Said means for directing comprises a conduit mounted in communication with the first drain. The conduit discharges into the second cavity of the further receiving receptacle.
Abstract:
The lifting device comprises abiased slide shoe adapted to be slidable with respect to a member of an openable structure, a lifting arm having two ends, one end adapted to be pivotally connected with a member of the structure and the other end associated with said slide shoe, and a braking device comprising at least one brake shoe slidable on a respective brake face of said lifting device, said braking device modulating the force resulting from the bias on said biased slide shoe. An adjusting device is adapted to adjust said progressive modulation of said force resulting from the bias on said biased slide shoe, and comprises a manipula- tion member, which when manipulated by a user activates said adjusting device to adjust a brake force of said brake shoe exerted on said brake face in a given position of said brake shoe.
Abstract:
The shock-absorbing horseshoe comprises a rigid part (1) for abutment with a hoof of a horse, said rigid part forming one rigid body with two back-ward facing branches (3,4). A lower section (9, 10) of each backward facing branch is shorter than an upper section (11, 12), and a resilient part (13, 14) extends backward be-yond rear edges of each said lower section and ends at rear edges of said upper section.
Abstract:
A first hinge device comprises an abutment element (10) abutting one end of a spring element (7). The position of the abutment element is adjustable in relation to the position of a sliding element such as to adjust a pretension of said spring element. A second hinge device comprises a rotatable actuating element and a rotationally locked sliding element, said sliding element and said actuating element comprising 15 mutually abutting ends with a number of mutually corresponding cams to spring-load a seat and/or a backrest in relation to a carrier frame of said office chair. An office chair comprises a hinge device with a sliding element and an actuating element comprising mutually abutting surfaces, said actuating element being adapted to offset an abutment element of said sliding element against said spring element on articulation of said seat and/or said backrest in relation to said carrier frame by rota- tion of said sliding element in relation to said actuating member and thus cooperation between said abutting surfaces, whereby said spring element spring-loads said seat and/or said backrest in relation to said carrier frame.
Abstract:
A set of medical sampling parts for use with an endoscope, comprising: a sampling device; a sample container including a separator part located at a top of the sample container, a base located at a bottom of the sample container opposite of said top, and a container part at least partly enclosing a sample volume located at the bottom of the sample container, so that a container axis extends between said separator part and said base; and a connector for connecting the sampling device with the sample container, wherein the sample container can be detached from the sampling device by a translational movement along a detachment axis, whereby a smallest angle between said container axis and said detachment axis is equal to or greater than 45 degrees.
Abstract:
An ornamental component (300) for a bracelet and/or necklace, comprising a housing with a cavity defining projecting rims of end walls of the housing and a ring manufactured from a resilient friction material, wherein the ring comprises at least two cut-outs in the inside surface (303) of the ring, said cut-outs defining associated at least two inwardly projecting projections of the ring for frictionally gripping a surface of the elongated member so as to adjustably fix the ornamental component at selected positions along an elongated member, an entirety of the cut-outs being free of material.
Abstract:
Jewelry article (1, 1a, 1b) with a string (2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e) and at least one stop component (3, 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 4) being arrangeable fixed along the string (2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e) at a selected position (a, b) on the string (2, 2a, 2b,2c, 2d, 2e), the at least one stop component (3, 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 4)being received on a radially expanded holding element (5, 5a, 5b, 5c) provided on the string (2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e), wherein the holding element (5, 5a, 5b, 5c) is made radially elastic and is arrangeable positioned freely on the string (2, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, 2e) by means of a longitudinal slot (21, 21a) and forms a frictional lock with the at least one stop component (3, 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 4).
Abstract:
The cotton pad dispenser (1) comprises a side wall (2) extending between a top and a bottom end of the dispenser (1), and an end wall (7) near the bottom end, a plurality of disc-shaped cotton pads (9) being stacked within the dispenser. A first cut-out (3) provided in said side wall (2) extends upwards from the bottom end of the dispenser (1) so as to form an entrance into said volume through the side wall (2), and a second cut-out (4) provided in said end wall (7) extends from the first cut-out (3) such that the cut-outs (3, 4) comprise a mutual transition to form one combined withdrawal aperture (1a). The withdrawal aperture (1a) is arranged such as to enable withdrawal of a bottommost cotton pad by gripping a peripheral portion (9b) of the cotton pad (9) with an indexing finger and a thumb, and pulling the cotton pad out of the withdrawal aperture (1a) by means of deformation of the cotton pad (9).
Abstract:
A venting valve for cargo tanks in, for instance, oil tankers, comprising a valve housing (3), a valve body (1) and a valve seat (2). Said valve has a first valve characteristic. According to the invention, another valve, that is built-in in the valve body (1), is provided since the latter is hollow in order to receive a further valve body (8) that is displaceably arranged for interaction with a further valve seat (7). According to the invention, the further valve has a characteristic that is different from the characteristic of the first valve.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a wind power plant that comprises a dehumidifying device arranged in the interior of said plant and at least one valve. The dehumidifying device is in fluid communication with the interior of the plant via an air inlet and an air outlet. The dehumidifying device is in fluid communication with the ambient air via at least one air conduit. At least one valve is arranged to prevent ambient air to enter the interior of the plant via the dehumidifying device when said dehumidifying device is not in operation. The invention also relates to a method of operating the wind power plant.
