Abstract: Variable frequency sawtooth waveforms are often utilized as an excitation signal in a digital musical synthesizer. A problem exists at lower sampling rates in such systems due to an aliasing problem which occurs at frequencies near the Nyquist rate. Low pass filtering may be utilized to mask this problem; however, low pass filtering is very time consuming to implement in a digital signal processor. The method and apparatus of the present invention reduces the upper harmonic content of a sawtooth waveform by proportionally converting the sawtooth waveform to a triangle waveform in response to variations in the frequency of the sawtooth waveform. This is accomplished by adding a selectable offset to the sawtooth waveform and then taking the absolute value of the resultant waveform. By restoring this waveform to a zero offset, the sawtooth waveform excitation signal will be converted to a triangle waveform having a substantially reduced upper harmonic content. By varying the selectable offset in response to variations in the frequency of the sawtooth waveform, it is possible to efficiently vary the amount of conversion which occurs.

Abstract: In a picture phone integrated in the desktop of a workplace, a picture tube is arranged recessed vertically in the desktop. A semitransparent mirror, which can be telescoped out via a shank and the tilt of which is adjustable, is arranged above the picture tube and reflects the screen image to the operator. Depending on the eye level of this person, the mirror telescoped out into an always identical position via a first spindle is set to the eye level of the operator by tilting via a second spindle. According to the invention, only one spindle is provided which consists of two spindle parts (4a, 4b) having a different thread pitch. The shank (7) is telescoped out via one part (4a). Via the other part (4b), the angle of tilt of the mirror (14), which results from the differential travel (Hd) of the two spindle parts (4a, 4b), is continuously varied. The thread pitches of the two spindle parts (4a, 4b) are matched to one another in such manner that the angle of observation ( beta ) is as small for a person with a maximum eye level as for a person with low eye level. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Apparatus for engaging and holding a non-oriented hot glass container (16) of predetermined square cross sectional contour and closed end that includes a chuck (14) having an open end (32) for receiving the container (16) and an internal valve plate (34) for abutment with the end of the container (16) received in the chuck (14). The chuck (14) is coupled to a cam-operated am (20) for lowering the chuck (14) over a container (16). A transition plate (40) has a square opening (46) contoured to be closely received over the square cross section of the container (16), and is mounted for free rotation adjacent to the open end (30) of the chuck (14). Guide fingers (48) project from the plate (40) away from the open end (32) of the chuck (14) so as to engage the container end as the chuck is lowered over the container (16), and to rotate the plate (40) relative to the chuck (14) so that the plate opening is aligned with the square cross section of the container end. A vacuum is applied to the valve plate (34) within the chuck (14) for holding the container end against the valve plate. Close fit between the transition plate opening (46) and the square cross section of the container (16) restricts flow of air through the opening past the container, and thereby improves the ability to retain and hold the container within the chuck.

Abstract: A method for coding an input video signal to provide a coded signal. The input video signal has a field rate of 60 Hz and is derived from a motion picture film source using 2-3 pulldown. In the method, first frames, consisting of fields derived from different frames of the motion picture film source, are detected in the input video signal. Then, the input video signal is predictively coded to provide the coded signal by using second frames as reference pictures. Second frames are frames of the input video signal other than the first frames detected in the detecting step. In an alternative method for coding an input video signal to provide a coded signal, duplicate pictures are detected in the input video signal, and duplicate pictures are eliminated from the input video signal to provide an encoder input signal. The encoder input signal is predictively coded using plural predictive coding methods to provide the coded signal. Finally, a skip-picture flag is included in the coded signal in lieu of each eliminated duplicate picture, and a reference picture code identifying a field to be copied to provide each eliminated duplicate picture is also included in the coded signal.
