Title: Technical apparatus, particularly electromechanical drive for information carriers
Inventor: KAEMMLER GEORG
IPC: G11B33/02
Filed: 1993-10-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a technical apparatus, in particular an electromechanical drive for the moving of information carriers, having at least one plastic functional part (25a) which is formed on a baseplate by injection-moulding on to the latter by the outsert-moulding technique and comprises at least one web (28), which reaches through an opening (23) in the baseplate (2), and holding pieces (30, 31), which are located on the baseplate surfaces (2a, 2b), are connected by the web (28) and the plastic of which shrinks after the injection-moulding, the functional part (25a) making itself freely movable by the shrinking as a rotary part or slide of its own accord by virtue of the following design: the holding pieces (30, 31) act only on peripheral subregions (30a, 31a) of the axial web ends (28a) and are at the same time offset with respect to each other in such a way that, with overlapping peripheral subregions (30a, 31a) of the web (28), one web end (28a) on the one plate surface (2a, 2b) always bears only one holding piece (30 or 31) and the other web end (28a), located in the region of overlap, on the other plate surface (2b, 2a) is free from holding pieces (30, 31). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to realise a high picture quality with a small information volume, to reduce the hardware scale and to reduce the capacity of the frame buffer of a decoder, a limitation mode decision circuit 34 adaptively changes over a mode of inhibiting interframe predictive coding over the entire macro-blocks in each slice to a mode of inhibiting interfield predictive coding in a frame being encoded over the entire macro-blocks in one slice. As for a B-frame, prediction from its odd field to its even field is inhibited, while prediction from an odd field, such as an Io field, of a reference frame of forward prediction is also inhibited.

IPC: G06K15/10

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 re-checked (174) to detect any new violation(s) resulting from the correction. The process repeated until no minimum spacing violations are found.

Abstract: An ultrasound transducer (110) for intravascular examinations comprises an interleaved series of eccentric elliptical electrodes (121-128) disposed on the back face (150) of a piezoelectric substrate (118) that has been alternately poled in the thickness dimension. The back face (150) of the transducer (110) is coupled to air. while impedance-matching layers (116) are on the front face of the transducer. The front face (152) is concave spherical to provide a geometric focus. The electrodes are driven at an ultrasound frequency. This arrangement (100) results in a longitudinal-mode ultrasound transmission through the front face (152) of the transducer (110). The eccentricity of the electrodes (121-128) precompensates for distortion imposed by a cylindrical window (112). The pitch (spacing) of the electrodes increases radially, reducing speckling in the ultrasound image. This transducer (100) provides for high-frequency intravascular examinations, and thus correspondingly high-resolution images, without using impractically thin piezoelectric substrates. In addition, the geometric focus, the predistortion, and the speckle-reduction all reduce the artifacts in the resulting high-resolution artiultrasound image.

Abstract: In order to obtain unique non-modulo-2 pi -independent measurement results, the fibre optic force measuring procedure, which is based on the voltage-induced birefringence of a monomode optical fibre (4), provides a compensation procedure for the phase differences, caused by the action of the force on the optical fibre (4) and the change in birefringence following therefrom, in the two linear modes of the light waves at the outlet end. According to one variant procedure, use is made as a compensation element of a liquid crystal cell whose birefringent effect is electrically controllable. The maximum of an autocorrelation function produced as an image and of the voltage value, associated therewith, at the liquid crystal cell is evaluated as a measure of the birefringence to be compensated, and consequently of the force acting. 
<??>In another basic variant procedure, the two component waves are guided by an optical component (15) having linearally spatially-dependent birefringence transverse to the direction of propagation of the wave fronts. As a result, the autocorrelation function can be obtained as a spatial coordinate and electronically recorded using a linear detector (16), for example a linear array. Under specific, defined preconditions, the location of the maximum in the autocorrelation function is a measure of the birefringence caused in the optical fibre (4) by mechanical stress, from which it is possible, in turn, to calculate the magnitude of the force acting on the force sensor (3).

Abstract: A system for traffic signals for one-side passing, which realizes efficient traffic control during abnormal operation of detectors or the night with little traffic density. Traffic signals 6 and 7 are provided with detectors 8 and 9 for detection of passing of vehicles respectively. Both traffic signals repeat traffic lighting in a cycled manner such as green-red, red-red, red-green and red-red by a sensitive controller 10. Owing to an ill-detection switching device 71, if there is no detection signal input by the detector of one traffic signal within a switch holding time after detection signal is input by the detector of the other traffic signal, the green lighting of one traffic signal will be shifted to a fixed-cycle operation until detection signal input by the detector. The traffic signal shifted to the fixed-cycle operation will be restored to the sensitive operation if the detection signal is input by the detector.
