Abstract: In devices for freezing pourable and flowing materials by direct contact with a low-boiling liquefied gas, the materials are moved on a conveyor belt many times through a bath consisting of the liquefied gas. These devices are well-suited for continuous production on an industrial scale, but have a high space requirement. For scientific use, for example, small easily sterilisable devices are preferred. Such a device consists of an insulated housing (1), in which a rotatable hollow cylinder (2) is arranged, the axis of rotation (3) of which is inclined at an angle to the horizontal and on the inner wall of which a band worm (5) is arranged. In the hollow cylinder, the bath (7) consisting of a low-boiling liquefied gas, for example nitrogen, is situated. Arranged above the deepest point of the bath is the introduction device (9) for the material to be frozen (Fig. 1).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for simulating the effect of non-homogeneous fog in an image displayed on a screen. The image is intended to represent the appearance of a model defined in a database in world space coordinates from an eyepoint position in world space, the model being defined in terms of individual features each having predetermined attributes defining the position and visible characteristics of the feature. Image data is derived from the model for each of an array of sampling points distributed across screen space. A non-homogeneous fog structure is defined in world space coordinates as a series of parallel strata of predetermined exteintion coefficient. The positions of the eyepoint and a feature to be displayed relative to the fog structure are determined. The distance from the feature to the eyepoint is calculated. An average value of the extinction coefficient between the eyepoint and the feature is calculated from the defined parallel strata, and the attributes are modulated as a function of the calculated distance and the calculated average value of the extinction coefficient.

Abstract: Dans cette invention, un système de traitement d'images numériques numérise et met en mémoire des images de film photographique dans le sens qu'elles ont sur le film lorsqu'elles ont été photographiées, afin d'éviter de recourir à la rotation physique de l'analyseur de film par rapport au film lorsqu'il doit explorer des images verticales, ceci permettant de réduire de manière significative la complexité et le coût de l'analyseur. Dans ce système, chaque fichier d'images mémorisées possède un fichier de commande de présentation, qui renferme des informations concernant l'orientation et le format d'image, de sorte que le dispositif de relecture des images connaît la manière dont chaque image a été mémorisée dans la base de données d'images numériques, comme un disque compact. Lorsqu'on introduit le disque dans un dispositif de relecture pour piloter un dispositif d'affichage de sortie tel qu'un moniteur de télévision en couleurs, le dispositif de relecture peut rapidement décoder les informations de commande de relecture pendant qu'il lit l'image numérisée, de sorte que l'image s'affiche verticalement et en ayant le format d'image correct pour l'affichage.

Abstract: The breathing system comprises a canister carrying layered filtering material, including activated carbon granules, a dessicant, a catalyst for the catalyzation of carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide, optionally lithium peroxide, for conversion of CO2 to O2, and electrostatically charged filters between the layers of filtering material. A mouthpiece carrying a noseclip, and inhalation and exhalation check valves and a whistle is disposed within a flexible, substantially completely transparent hear-through hood, both the mouthpiece and hood being disposed in the canister between the filtering material and a cover for the canister. In use, the cover is removed, air inlet apertures are uncovered, and the hood is drawn about an individual's head and substantially sealed about the neck. With the mouthpiece in the individual's mouth, and noseclip closing off the user's nose, inhalation causes air to flow through the filtering material and the inhalation check valve and past the exhalation check valves. When exhaling, the exhalation check valves open to permit exhaled air to flow into the hood. The inhalation valve closes during exhalation to prevent backflow of air through the filtering material. By exhaling into the hood, a slight positive pressure within the hood is established to prevent noxious gases, smoke particles and the like from entering the hood through the neck opening. A chemical light is provided externally on the canister.

Abstract: Une machine d'extrusion-soufflage est conçue pour permettre l'extrusion d'une ébauche plate creuse à partir d'un espace situé entre un noyau plat et un moule plat qui l'entoure. Elle se caractérise par le fait que les deux extrémités du moule peuvent coulisser en largeur par rapport à sa partie intermédiaire, alors que le noyau est interchangeable en fonction de l'élargissement ou du rétrécissement du moule. Avec cette structure, on peut faire varier la largeur d'une ébauche plate creuse extrudée à partir de l'espace situé entre le noyau et le moule en faisant coulisser les extrémités de ce dernier en largeur et en changeant le noyau de façon appropriée à l'élargissement ou au rétrécissement du moule. Si le noyau plat consiste en une partie plate interchangeable et en une partie incurvée fixe, de manière que seule soit remplaçable la partie interchangeable, il suffit de prévoir plusieurs parties interchangeables plates de différentes longueurs, ce qui n'est pas très cher et permet d'abaisser les coûts de fabrication. On peut ainsi faire varier la largeur d'une ébauche plate creuse extrudée à partir de l'espace situé entre le noyau plat et le moule plat.
