Abstract: A method of rolling a continuous welded billet having weld joints at successive locations along the billet and wherein the continuous welded billet is advanced through roll pairs of successive roll stands. The rolling conditions in two successive stands are adjusted so that when a weld joint is between the two stands compression is produced at the weld joint causing an increase of cross-sectional area at the weld joint. The rolling condition involves superimposing an increase in roll speed in the upstream roll stand compared to the downstream roll stand based on tracking information of the weld joint.

Abstract: A nozzle (116) in an injection molding machine allows for smooth, blended melt flow into a mold cavity. In one example, this is accomplished through use of a nozzle having a nozzle body (230) with a nozzle melt channel (214) in fluid communication with a manifold melt channel (108) and a nozzle tip (226). The nozzle tip (226) includes a first melt channel (350) in fluid communication with the nozzle melt channel (214) and a plurality of release melt channels (354) between the first melt channel (350) and an annular melt channel (352). The annular melt channel (352) is formed between a retaining and/or sealing device (232) and the nozzle tip (226). The annular melt channel (352) includes a decompression chamber (356) in fluid communication with respective ones of the release melt channels (354) and a compression chamber (358) between the decompression chamber (356) and a mold. A pressure difference formed between the respective release melt channels (354) and the decompression chamber (356) and between the decompression chamber (356) and the compression chamber (358) blends the molten material to even and balance flow into the mold cavity. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A VLAN tagging method employed in a data communications switching device is disclosed. VLAN tagging is processed in accordance with one of a plurality of VLAN tagging modes, namely, a fixed port mode, a tagged port mode, a protocol-enforced port mode, a protocol-enforced port mode, and a standards-observant mode. The fixed port mode applies a VLAN tag with a default VLAN identifier associated with the ingress port. The tagged port mode preserves the tag received with the packet, or appends a new tag with a default VLAN identifier if the incoming VLAN tag is not present. In the protocol-enforced port mode, the VLAN identifier is selected based on the protocol type of the received PDU. In the standards-observant mode, an incoming VLAN tag is retained if present, or a new tag selected based on the protocol type of the received PDU if the received packet is untagged.

Abstract: Compensation of the effects of uncontrolled light in an imaging system using a controlled light source. Light from the controlled light source reflected by an object and uncontrolled light are detected in a plurality of frequency ranges. Intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined based on the varying sensitivity of an image sensor to light in the different frequency ranges and known emission characteristics of the controlled light source in the frequency ranges. Once the intensity of the uncontrolled light is determined, the total light detected at each point is adjusted to reduce the effects of the uncontrolled light in the resulting imaging data produced by the imaging system.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a liquid level measurement apparatus. The apparatus includes a supply unit which is closed when compressed air flows into the supply unit and pressure of the compressed air exceeds a predetermined pressure, and is opened when the pressure of the compressed air is below the predetermined pressure. A backflow preventing unit is controlled according to whether the compressed air flows into the supply unit. A protecting unit is closed when the compressed air flows through the backflow preventing unit and its pressure exceeds the predetermined pressure, and is opened when the pressure of the compressed air is below the predetermined pressure. A measuring unit draws the compressed air from the protecting unit when the protecting unit is opened, and thereafter compares the pressure of the compressed air with atmospheric pressure, thus measuring a level of the liquid stored in the tank.
