Abstract: The bobbin placer and lifter consists of at least one yarn receiving cylinder (1) linked to a reciprocating mechanism (3) for winding the yarn bobbin (B) on a tubular support (4) retained by a holder and positioner (5), a dispenser (6) for the supports and a discharger (7) for the filled bobbins. The receiving cylinder and support tube are positioned for winding so they rotate with the yarn (2) passing under the receiving cylinder and over the support tube, and that the latter moves towards the discharger in a direction opposite to that in which the yarn arrives. The support dispenser is fixed, while the discharger is in the form of a ramp with the wound bobbin tending to roll down it when released. The holder is in the form of pivoted arms with forked ends (9, 10) that move as the size of the wound bobbin increases, releasing the bobbin on the discharger and picking up a new one as it travels in a circular trajectory.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for creating a planar or curved grid image (230) representing at least one predefined image (240) with individual image areas (242, 244). According to said method, an orientation for the grid image, in which the predefined image is to be visible, is defined in space while a color is defined for each image area (242, 244), in which the respective image area is displayed at the defined orientation. Furthermore, grid image areas (232, 234) are defined which are associated with one respective image area (242, 244) and the arrangement of which within the grid image (230) substantially corresponds to the arrangement of the image areas (242, 244) in the predefined image (240). One or several subareas (236, 238) are then defined within each grid image area (232, 234), and a grid constant (a) as well as an angle orientation (O) are determined for each of the subareas (236, 238) from the defined orientation of the grid image (230) and the defined color of the associated image area (242, 244). Said indications are used to create a grid image (230) with grid image areas (232, 234) in a substrate, each subarea (236, 238) of the grid image areas being filled with a grid pattern whose grid constant (a) and angle orientation (O) are defined by the grid constant and angle orientation previously determined for said subarea.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de transmission et de réception possédant une fonction de correction d'une erreur de donnée dans une voie de communication. Dans ce dispositif de transmission, une unité d'addition de bit redondant additionne un bit redondant à chaque bit de donnée ayant été divisé par un bit par une unité de division; et un entrelaceur assure l'entrelacement. Le dispositif de transmission transmet un signal ayant été modulé en fréquence par une unité de modulation de fréquence MF. Dans le dispositif de réception, une unité de jugement de symbole procède au jugement de symbole en un point de Nyquist pour un signal ayant été démodulé en MF par une unité de démodulation en MF; une unité de conversion de bits effectue la conversion de bits selon le résultat du jugement de symbole; et une unité de restauration de trame supprime le bit redondant additionné par l'unité d'addition de bit redondant du dispositif de transmission, du train de bits désentrelacé par un désentrelaceur. Il est ainsi possible de procéder de manière sûre à une correction d'erreur avec une configuration simple, même lorsque l'état de communication n'est pas dans un environnement préférable.

Abstract: The invention covers a fine-particle, brilliant and strongly hiding rutile-based pigment that is devoid of any metal or reactive metal compounds relevant to mill abrasion detectable by application technology but whose particle-size in terms of particle diameters ranges from 50 to 1000 nm, for mono-, bi-, tri- or oligo-modal size distribution and a primary maximum ranges from 230 to 400 nm, wherein optionally for a bi- or poly-modal frequency distribution, a secondary maximum is less than 25% of the primary maximum between 400 and 1000 nm. The process for producing said pigment comprises treating an inorganic mixed-phase rutile structured oxide pigment by high-speed grinding in suspension in a ball grinding mill provided with a mechanically and chemically resistant coating until said particle-size and a substantially isometric rounded particle shape are attained. The invention optionally provides for viscosity adjustment and surface conditioning of the pigment. The inventive pigment differs from prior art by improved gloss, low whiteness or reduced whitening, relatively high hue saturation, by extremely high hiding power which had been unattainable in said class of products up to now and exhibits a low photoactivity with respect to known fine-particle rutiles. In practice neither abrasivity nor interaction of possible grinding residues with an application matrix are observed.
