Abstract: The locking mechanism, e.g. for a wheeled waste bin which is emptied by tipping, comprises a pivoted component (10) inside the lid (2) in the form of a two-armed lever with a weight (17). The non-weighted arm of the lever has a hole (15) in it engaging with a projection (16) on the inside of the bin so that the lid is held closed while the bin is tilted and remains closed until a certain angle is reached. The weight then turns the lever, disengaging it from the projection, allowing the lid to swing open on its hinge and the contents to drop out. The lower, non-weighted arm of the lever is in three linked sections describing one side of a hexagon with its concave side facing towards the inside of the bin. The lock can also incorporate a mechanism which allows the bin owner to open it with a key.

Abstract: Technical result: increase in concentration, reduction of mass and overall dimensions, and provision of maximum protection of solar cell against the damaging cosmic radiation. Essence: the receiving layer of the concentrator is consisted of a set of collecting members arranged on a same level. In one embodiment these members with their upper edges make a hexagonal honeycomb structure in a plane, and in another embodiment they make an orthogonal matrix composed of square-shaped elements. In case of hexagonal honeycomb structure the collecting members are made in the form of funnels with reflective internal surfaces, and in case of orthogonal matrix the collecting members comprise optical lenses or they are made in the form of paraboloidal-hyperboloidal concentrators. Layers having reflectors are provided under the receiving layer. By means of reflectors disposed under the receiving layer light beams from peripheral collecting members are transmitted to the centre of the central member. The similar processes take place on each layer. Field of application: solar-energy technology, can be used as conversion means of radiant energy into thermal or electrical one; astronomy, can be used in designing the powerful telescopes for collecting the weak light beams coming from the distant galaxies; and high energy physics, can be used for obtaining strong laser beams.

Abstract: A method for forming a high spatial resolution perspective rendering from a low spatial resolution voxel space is disclosed. The method comprises steps of: a) initializing a virtual window of predetermined resolution pixels, and placing the virtual window in or near the voxel space; b) sparsely ray-casting a plurality of vectors from a predetermined vantage-point through the virtual window into the voxel space; and c) calculating a visualization-value at a series of positions along each vector. In a position ordering of steps from the vantage-point to the pixel, an accumulated transparency-value threshold is calculated. Values of proximate voxels are interpolated into an interpolated voxel value for each position. The interpolated voxel values are then transformed into a derived visualization-value and transparency value.
