Inventor: POLK DALE E
IPC: F24S10/50
Filed: 2012-10-02
Abstract: A solar heat exchange panel that includes a lower plate and an upper plate that together define an interior volume containing a flowing heat transfer fluid. The upper plate includes a plurality of upward extensions and downward extensions that cover the top surface of the solar heat transfer panel and are configured to capture solar radiant energy. The lower plate plate includes a plurality of upwardly extending hollow lower plate extensions. The lower plate extensions are aligned with the bottom portions of each upward extension of the upper plate and almost touching. Each of the downward extensions form the upper plate extend down and are joined to the base of the lower plate. In operation, a heat transfer fluid introduced into an inlet on one end of the solar heat transfer panel passes through the defined interior volume and is intimately contacted with the solar heated surfaces extending down into the solar heat transfer panel from the upper plate. A substantially infrared transparent plate across the top surface of the solar heat transfer panel creates a top interior space that encloses a path of flowing air which is simultaneously heated along with the enclosed heat transfer fluid in the lower interior space.

Abstract: Bei Vorrichtungen zum automatischen Falten von Wäschestücken werden üblicherweise unterschiedlich lange Wäschestücke in einer unregelmäßigen Aufeinanderfolge gefaltet. Dabei kommt es insbesondere in der Längsfaltstation (13) zu Leerläufen bzw. Verzögerungen.  Die Erfindung sieht es vor, die Länge jedes Wäschestücks (10) vor der Längsfaltstation (13) zu ermitteln und kurze Wäschestücke beim Hindurchtransport durch die Längsfaltstation (13) zu beschleunigen, während größere Wäschestücke in der Längsfaltstation (13) verzögert werden. Es wird so erreicht, dass nach Abschluss des Längsfaltvorgangs sich das jeweils gefaltete Wäschestück am Ende der Längsfaltstation (13) befindet und sofort nach Abschluss des Längsfaltens aus der Längsfaltstation (13) abtransportiert werden kann. Dadurch werden unnötige Leerlaufzeiten vermieden und es können auch längere Wäschestücke während des kontinuierlichen, langsameren Weitertransports durch die Längsfaltstation (13) längsgefaltet werden.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus acquires a low resolution indirect illumination buffer having a resolution less than an indirect illumination buffer information used for specifying a specular reflection direction in a position of an object and a reflection characteristic of the object in a 3D scene corresponding to each pixel of the indirect illumination buffer to be generated. Then it generates an indirect illumination buffer by increasing the resolution of the low resolution indirect illumination buffer. Here the apparatus generates the pixels of the indirect illumination buffer generated by the increase in resolution based on at least the level of similarity of the specular reflection lobes of objects corresponding to the pixels and objects corresponding to the pixels of the low resolution indirect illumination buffer used for the generation of the pixels.
