Abstract: The seal contains a flat lower magnetic bar (14) in a threshold (10) and a profiled upper magnetic bar (20) which is received in the manner of a piston vertically movably by a rectangular channel profile (25). The two magnetic bars have one pole on the door-opening side and the other pole on the door-closing side, but in an opposite arrangement, so that, during the closing of the door, the upper magnetic bar is drawn downwards by the attraction and sits down, whereas, during the commencing opening movement, it is repelled upwards. In the upper position, it is held against a sheet-steel strip (28) by means of the rearward magnetic attraction. The forwardly directed magnetic force predominates over that directed rearwards. The seal can be used irrespective of the particular position, that is to say both on the floor and on the side (door frame). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a spiral tube winder, the plies going to the winding mechanism are monitored to make sure that no ply is broken. Upon sensing a ply break plies are removed from in the glue applying portion of the apparatus and the machine stopped so that broken ply does not become entangled in the apparatus. The ply break detection system (34) is automatically activated for each ply lane that is in use so that plies can be added while the machine is in operation, with the result that the ply break protection for each such added ply comes on automatically after that ply has been added.

Abstract: A new adaptive Fourier transform coder/decoder encodes periodic components of speech signals and decodes the encoded periodic components. The pitch frequency of voice signals in successive time frames at the voice coder may be determined as by (1) Cepstrum analysis (e.g. the time between successive peak amplitudes in each time frame), (2) harmonic gap analysis (e.g. the amplitude differences between the peaks and troughs of the peak amplitude signals of the frequency spectrum) (3) harmonic matching, (4) filtering of the frequency signals in successive pairs of time frames and the performance of (1), (2) and (3) on the filtered signals to provide pitch interpolation on the first frame in the pair and (5) pitch matching. The amplitude and phase of the pitch frequency and harmonic signals are determined by techniques refined relative to the prior art to provide amplitude and phase signals with enhanced resolution. Such amplitudes may be converted to a simplified digital form by (a) taking the logarithm of the frequency signals, (b) selecting the signal with the peak amplitude, (c) offsetting the amplitudes of the logarithmic signals relative to such peak amplitude, (d) companding the offset signals, (e) reducing the number of harmonics to a particular limit by eliminating alternate high frequency harmonics, (f) taking a discrete cosine transform of the remaining signals and (g) digitizing the transformed signals. If the pitch frequency has a continuity within particular limits in successive time frames, the phase difference of the signals between successive time frames is provided. At a displaced voice decoder, the signal amplitudes are determined by performing, in order, the inverse of steps (g) through (a). These signals and the signals representing pitch frequency and phase are processed to recover the voice signals.

Abstract: In liquid-ink color graphics printing, true black ink is preferred over composite black wherever possible, but poor print quality results from printing black ink too close to color ink, due to limitations in present ink chemistry. A method of processing color bit-map graphics data in a four-color liquid-ink printing system, so as to maximize use of black ink while maintaining a minimum spacing between black and color inks (FIGS. 2-4) is disclosed. The input data is stored in CMY bit-map color planes (54,56,58). Preliminarily, data representing composite black is moved from the color planes into a K plane (60) for printing by a true black pen. The data is examined (66) to detect any black ink within the minimum spacing from color ink. The examination is expedited by partitioning the data into blocks (FIG. 8A), and indicating each block as a color block, a black block, or a white block (FIG. 11). These indications are conveniently stored in a color table (62) and a black table (64), in which each block of data is represented by a single bit (FIGS. 8-9). Tests for black adjacent color are conducted at the block level, i.e. in the tables (FIGS. 15-17), rather than at the individual bit level. Where a black block is detected adjacent a color block, the spacing violation is corrected by moving the corresponding block of data from the K plane back into the color planes (166) for printing as composite black. After such correction, the data is rechecked (174) to detect any new violation(s) resulting from the correction. The process repeated until no minimum spacing violations are found.
