Patent EP-0401046-A3 (EP)
Title: Crossmixing dual auger system
IPC: G03G15/08
Filed: 1990-06-01
Abstract: A development system for a reproduction machine includes a pair of augers (72,74) 
which mix and transfer the developer mixture to a magnetic roll brush system (80). The supply 
auger (72) is positioned in a horizontal plane; the second return auger (74) is at an angle to the 
first auger. The first auger transports developer material in one direction mixing the developer 
material and dispensing developer material along its length by gravity to the magnetic brush roll 
sump. A developer material transport opening (120) at one end allows developer material to be 
gravity fed to the adjacent end of the inclined auger which carries the developer material uphill. 
The developer material is transferred at the other end by gravity feed back to the first auger.

Title: Field programmable logic and analogic integrated circuit
IPC: H01L21/822
Filed: 1990-01-23
Abstract: A programmable logic and analogic integrated device 
comprises a programmable logic section capable of 
constituting by programming a state machine which beside 
producing output logic signal's in function of input logic 
signals may drive a digital-analog converter (DAC), the 
analog signal generated by which is managed as well as other 
analog signals which may be respectively fed to a number of 
analog input pins of the integrated device by the said 
programmable state machine by means of a plurality of 
integrated analog switches which also permit the output of 
the analog signal generated by the DAC through a buffered 
analog output pin of the device. An integrated comparator 
(zero-crossing detector) provides a comparison between two 
distinct external analog signals or between an external 
analog signal and the analog signal generated by the DAC for 
producing an output logic signal which may be fed to an input 
of the state machine for implementing a certain interaction 
function.  
     The device is useful for a wide range of applications in 
lieu of a microprocessor-based system.

Abstract: Encoding and decoding of subtitle data is performed in real time. A buffer
regulates a flow rate of the subtitle data to ensure that appropriate subtitles are
superimposed on the correct video picture. In encoding, subtitles are generated in
correspondence with a video picture. The subtitles are separately encoded and
multiplexed with the video picture for transmission. Upon decoding, the subtitles
are selected at a time which corresponds to display of the corresponding video
picture. Since the subtitles are processed separately from the video data, the
subtitles may be manipulated with great control, thus providing more flexibility in
encoding and decoding.

Abstract: A compact video camera has an image pickup lens system providing a
zooming function and a wide angle field of view. The zooming
function is performed by a zoom lens, while the wide angle view is
achieved via a wide angle converter. The wide angle converter,
located closer to the object than the zoom lens, comprises a
negative lens, a positive lens, and a reflecting member located
between the negative and positive lenses. With the use of the
reflecting member, an optical axis of the image pickup lens system
extending from the object side to the image side of the camera may
be folded. The position at which the optical axis is folded is
located closer to the object side than the image side.

Filed: 1996-12-20
Abstract: Described herein is a polarization multiplexed laser which emits two beams of the same
wavelength but orthogonal polarization from a single laser source for use in a multiple beam raster
output scanning system. The multiple beam raster output scanning is obtained from a single raster
scanning system (ROS) with a rotating polygon mirror (110), and a single set of scan optics (118) for
use in single or multiple station printers. A plurality of coaxially overlapping laser beams (214, 216,
218, 220) from a laser array of dissimilar wavelengths and dissimilar polarization states, are deflected
using a common mirror surface area and are subsequently separated by an optical polarized beam
separator (160) and optical dichroic beam separators (230, 240). The separated laser beams (214,
216, 218, 220) are directed onto associated photoreceptors (250, 260, 270, 280) such that their
optical path lengths from the source location to their respective photoreceptors (250, 260, 270, 280)
are substantially the same.

fibers as composite fibers, the thickness of the BN coating
need not be especially made large, and a sliding effect during
growing of cracks can be improved, i.e., breakdown energy can

and a preform is formed by the yarns or the fabric, C powder
is arranged in a gap portion between fibers of the preform to
form a compact, a molten Si is impregnated into the compact
to form an SiC matrix between fibers. A region having a high
B concentration is formed around the SiC fibers before the
preform is impregnated with the molten Si, and B in the
region is solid-solved in Si during reaction sintering to
suppress B in the BN-coated SiC fibers from being solid-solved
in Si.

Abstract: Ein Hebezeug ist mit einem Steuersystem versehen, bei

dynamisch ein oberer Grenzwert (Ref 2 ) solange nachgezogen

erstmals diesen stufenweise erhöhten Grenzwert (Ref 2 ) nicht
mehr überschreitet. Im Anschluß daran wird überprüft, ob
infolge von Schwingungen auch ein stufenweise mitgezogener
unterer Grenzwert (Ref 3 ) unterschritten wird. Wenn dies
nicht der Fall ist, bleiben die Grenzwerte (Ref 2 ,Ref 3 ) auf
dem aktuell erreichten Wert, andernfalls werden sie stufenweise
vermindert und wieder erhöht, solange, bis das
Lastsignal (F) zwischen den beiden Grenzen (Ref 2 ,Ref 3 )
bleibt. Damit kann sich das System sehr schnell auf jede
beliebige Last (F) einstellen und ist praktisch mit dem
Anheben der Last () und dem anschließenden Abklingen der
Seilschwingung ebenfalls im eingeschwungenen Zustand, was
