Abstract: An axial displacement mechanism for precisely adjusting the axial
displacement of a turret plate (38)
relative to a turret table (36) is disclosed.
Turret tables are commonly used to support a workpiece such as the
hollow tubular section of a tin box immediately prior to the seaming
of a lid thereto and are commonly angularly indexed between a
plurality, usually four, separate work stations disposed above the
turret plate. The turret table is rigidly secured to a frame while the
turret plate must be capable of being axially displaced relative
thereto to suit a variety of different components. The turret plate is
rigidly secured to an annular bush (12) through a central aperture of
which passes a cylindrical screw (17), the threads of which engage in
corresponding threads in the inner annular surface of the bush. The
screw abuts an axially fixed portion secured to or being a drive
spindle (22) which imparts motion to said fixed portion, said annular
bush and said screw means to cause the turret plate to rotate. The
provision of threads on the outside of the cylindrical screw and the
abutment thereof with the spindle or fixed portion ensures that the
rotation of the screw causes axial displacement of the annular bush
and thus the turret plate relative to the turret table while the screw
remains axially static. Guide means in the form of cylindrical pegs
provided in the axially fixed portion are received through apertures
in the annular bush to guide same and prevent angular displacement
thereof as it is axially displaced. Locking means (20) are provided to lock
the screw to the spindle or other fixed portion to prevent unwanted
rotation of same during rotation of the turret plate.

Title: Apparatus and method for rolling clothes in an automatic washer
Inventor: PINKOWSKI ROBERT J
IPC: D06F17/10
Filed: 2000-07-04
Abstract: A method and apparatus for washing cloth items in an automatic washer is provided
wherein the automatic washer includes a wash basket defining a wash chamber and an
impeller located within the bottom of the wash chamber. The method includes loading cloth
items into the wash chamber and then supplying a quantity of wash liquid into the wash
chamber sufficient to moisten the cloth items but insufficient to cause the cloth items to lose
frictional engagement with the impeller as the impeller oscillates. The impeller is oscillated
to apply a drag force to the cloth items in contact with the impeller such that the cloth items in
contact with the impeller move angularly along an arc-like path. Angular movement of the
cloth items disposed along the bottom of the wash chamber beyond the outer periphery of the
impeller is impeded such that relative angular motion is created between the cloth items
disposed along the periphery of the impeller and the cloth items disposed immediately above
the impeller. Cloth items move radially inward along the impeller, move upwardly in the
center of the wash chamber, move radially outwardly along the top of the wash chamber and
move downwardly along the side wall of the wash chamber in a pattern which may be
referred to as an inverse toroidal rollover path or pattern. This inverse toroidal rollover
pattern is created by direct contact between the oscillating impeller and the cloth items
supported above the impeller.

Abstract: An optical recording/reproducing apparatus includes a
monitor sensor for sensing the amount of emission from a laser
diode or optical head. The output of the monitor sensor is
routed through a non-inverting wide-band amplifier and an
inverting amplifier to an envelope detector. The envelope
detector detects peak values out of the input signal and
delivers them to a current amplifier via an amplifier and a
comparator. The current amplifier feeds a current
corresponding to the input to the laser diode. This current
corresponds to erasing power. The apparatus senses the
emission conditions of the laser diode throughout the
interval between the start of a recording operation and the
end of the same so as to cause erasing power to constantly
coincide with a reference value. It is therefore possible
to maintain the output of the erasing power at an adequate
value even when temperature around the apparatus varies.

Abstract: An optical fiber 2 is spliced to an optical fiber 1 in
a state that those optical fibers are axially shifted away from
each other by an offset quantity D. With this splicing of the
optical fibers, a coupling loss arises at a fusion splicing
part 1c. A plurality of fusion splicing parts 1c are provided.
The terminal part of the final optical fiber of serially spliced
optical fibers is a non-reflection treating part 10. Light
propagating through the optical fiber 1 is attenuated at the
fusion splicing part, whereby non-reflection of light is
realized. The back reflection light is also attenuated at the
fusion splicing part, thereby reducing the amount of the back
reflection light traveling back to the core 1a of the optical
fiber 1.

Abstract: A technique, referred to as area-based interpolation, performs image
interpolation. The system determines a curve by the pixel value at a location by
taking the integral of a curve over a small area, where the size of the area is
determined by the sampling size of a sampling cell. When the image is
resampled with respect to a sampling cell that has a finer spacing, the system
integrates the polynomial using a finer integration area. 
     The relation between the reintegrated, resampled high resolution
image and the low resolution image is a function of an up-sampler, followed by
a linear filter. The coefficients of the filter are independent of the data, but are
dependent on the family of curves used. If the system models by, for example,
a third degree or fourth degree polynomial everywhere in the image, then that
model determines the number of coefficients that are in the filter. Once the up-sampling
factor and degree of the polynomial are determined, the filter
coefficients are fixed, and can be calculated by solving a set of linear equations.
It is not necessary to determine these values on an image-by-image basis. The
system calculates the filter once and the consistency constraint is then satisfied
for all image scaling.

intersection between two diagonals of the frame is
determined. An X-axis and a Y-axis are set with the
intersection between the diagonals taken as a reference
point. A ratio between areas, occupied on both sides of
the X-axis, of the opening is calculated and a correction
amount in the Y-axis direction is calculated on the basis
of the area ratio. Similarly, a ratio of areas, occupied
on both sides of the Y-axis, of the opening is calculated
and a correction amount in the X-axis direction on the
basis of the area ratio. The intersection is moved by the
correction amounts in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis
direction, to obtain plane coordinates. The center
position of a micro-lens is aligned to the plane
coordinates corresponding to the center of gravity of the
opening of the pixel. In this way, the position of a
micro-lens is suitably set to the opening of each pixel
of the optical panel portion on the basis of the opening
shape of the pixel.

Abstract: We have discovered that by using a recombinant viral vector, preferably a pox virus
vector having at least one insertion site containing a DNA segment encoding prostate-specific
antigen (PSA), operably linked to a promoter capable of expression in the host,
a specific humoral and cellular immune response to PSA can be generated. The method
preferably comprises introducing a sufficient amount of the recombinant pox virus
vector into a host to stimulate the immune response, and contacting the host with
additional PSA at periodic intervals thereafter. The additional PSA may be added by
using a second pox virus vector from a different pox genus. In another embodiment,
additional PSA can be added by contacting the host with PSA by a variety of other
methods, including in one preferred embodiment adding PSA. The PSA may be
formulated with an adjuvant or in a liposomal formulation.
