Abstract: A flow imaging cytometer has an image capturing area for capturing the white-light image of a cell, and an image capturing area for capturing a fluorescent image of the same cell. The two image capturing areas are positionally offset from each other so that both images can be obtained in an excellent state with little mutual influence from the two types of light. Based upon detection of a cell using light from a light source (2) for monitoring cell flow-through, a light source (1) for exciting fluorescence and a strobe light source (3) for emitting the white light area actuated after respective prescribed time delays. To this end, the cytometer incorporates a delay-pulse generating circuit serving as control means.

Abstract: In order continuously to monitor the tip play of turbine blades, an optical transmitter and receiver are arranged in the turbine housing. Said receiver receives the light reflected from the turbine blades, the temporal reflection/intensity variation being evaluated. A measure of the desired tip play is provided by two peaks, which are produced by the reflection on the side faces of the turbine blades, between which the intensity is lower, as a result of the blade end face covering the receiver. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a phase locked loop having a variable divider, a dual modulus counter is used to provide the variable divider with selection signals. The variable divider is capable of providing an overall division ratio in increments of one over a contiguous range of values. The dual modulus counter includes a counter, a comparator and logic gates which generate selection signals that allow the variable divider to divide an input signal by at least division ratios R1 and R2. A phase locked loop utilizing the dual modulus counter is particularly well suited for use in a digital frequency synthesizer.

Abstract: A photographing apparatus for microscopes is constructed so that a simultaneous observation is made by overlapping an image of a sample formed by transmitted illumination with that formed by reflected fluorescence, in which signals for designating the simultaneous observation at once cause a second shutter for the transmitted illumination to be closed and a first shutter for the reflected fluorescence to be opened, the brightness of the sample image formed by the reflected fluorescence is measured by a light-detecting element disposed in an optical path for observation, and after a light-adjusting member for the transmitted illumination is controlled so that, based on data outputted from a memory device corresponding to a measured value, the brightness of the sample image by the transmitted illumination in the simultaneous observation is balanced with that of the sample image by the reflected fluorescence, the second shutter is opened. Thus, this photographing apparatus has advantages that whenever the microscopy is switched, an operator can dispense with the need for a fine adjustment of the amount of transmitted illumination light, with the resultant ease of operation, the balance adjustment of brightness in switching is made in a short time, and the bleaching of fluorescence of the sample can be suppressed.

Abstract: It is intended to specify switching arrangements for interconnecting first and second transmission media for transmitting signals in frequency- or space-division multiplex, which have a much simpler structure than known switching arrangements. For this purpose, the switching arrangements, having a novel switching device, are constructed of a number of adjustable frequency converters at the input end, a device for distributing the signals and double-adjustable frequency converters at the output end and/or of a number of double-adjustable frequency converters at the input end, a device for distributing the signals and adjustable frequency converters at the output end. These switching arrangements are completely equivalent to known arrangements of the Clos type but of much simpler structure. A simpler structure can also be achieved in a known switching arrangement of the Clos type by using shared-medium switches of two types.

Abstract: A method and circuit for correcting shadows in the upper or lower area of the pick-up area of optoelectrical transducers of a multi-channel colour television camera with zoom lens are proposed. One representative signal each is derived both from the setting of the diaphragm opening and from the zoom setting. From these representative signals, one control voltage each is generated in each case in dependence on corresponding signals of the minimum diaphragm opening, on the one hand, and the minimum values of wide-angle and telephoto setting of the zoom range, on the other hand, by means of which control voltages the level of a vertical-frequency sawtooth signal is controlled. Finally, this sawtooth-shaped control signal is used for influencing the respective video signal of a colour channel in the sense of compensating for the shadows. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus and method for recanalization of a blood vessel obstruction by application of low frequency mechanical energy to a vessel site or by creation of cavitation at the vessel site includes a catheter assembly having a wire located within and extending through a wire support tube and adapted to move axially therewith. A driving apparatus positioned at a proximal portion of the catheter assembly imparts energy to the wire to oscillate it axially. A tip is connected to a distal end of the wire and imparts low frequency mechanical energy or causes cavitation at the vessel site to recanalize it. Further, a fluid particle removal system can be incorporated within the catheter assembly to convey pressurized fluid via the wire support tube to the tip where the fluid is redirected in a proximal direction into a second tube of the catheter assembly coaxially positioned around the wire support tube. Particulate from the vessel obstruction being recanalized becomes attached viscously in the redirected pressurized fluid and is withdrawn from the vessel site.

Abstract: On-chip circuitry facilitates fuse testing in customized integrated circuits. The circuitry has specific application in testing fuse redundancy high end memories. A latch assisted fuse testing (LAFT) methodology employs an on-chip latch stack which can be used in place of the fuses. The latches in the stack are programmable and can perform the same function as the fuses during chip operation. This allows testing or experimentation to be performed nondestructively, without blowing any fuses. In one particular application of the invention, memory arrays with redundant blocks on a chip are provided with the on-chip latch stack. After the tests based on previously generated error data are performed using the latch stack, fuses are blown to repair the memory array by replacing defective memory blocks with redundant blocks.

Abstract: Prior art: measures for largely avoiding disturbances. Technical problem: faulty performance is produced during tests. Errors must be reconstructed and analysed. Misinserted (lost or added) cells are particularly problematic. Basic concept: the cells are provided with continuous cell sequence numbers by means of which lost or added cells are recognised at the receiving end. Lost cells are replaced by other cells, added ones are removed. Example: all cells belonging to a connection are temporarily stored in a type of first-in-first-out store. When the consecutive numbering is disturbed, a check is made whether the original sequence is continued again later (in the case of inserted cells) or a sequence which is at least correct in itself can be found (in the case of lost cells). Advantage: can be advantageously used not only in tests but also in operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for automatically selecting process information for a plurality of image parts, in which a CPU, in an automatic reproduction process routine, determines a positional relation between two image parts in a page image based on figure vector data corresponding to the two image parts (S110). A rule including data such as vertical relative positions, types, and colors of the two image parts as a condition part and process information as an action part is previously stored as rule base RB in an external hard disk unit. When the two image parts are in a non-separate relation, the CPU reads attribute data of the two image parts in the non-separate relation (S150), and determines final process information by exchanging the attribute data with rule base RB (S190 and S200). The results of the processing including the final process information are then stored as a process information table TBL3.
