Abstract: An image approximate to a vignette is to be generated from image data representing a first set of color steps CS1. A second set of color steps CS2 is first created from the first set of color steps CS1, where the second set of color steps CS2 has a plurality of figures inserted at equal intervals between two end figures of the first set of color steps CS1. Binary noise data BS are then generated in the vicinity of the boundary of each figure of the second color steps. Vignette image data VID approximately representing a vignette is generated by adding the binary noise data BS to bit map data of the second set of color steps CS2. Accordingly, a tone jump is eliminated from the image approximate to a vignette.

Abstract: A mounting support device allows workpieces to be attached at points intermediate between discrete positions of fixture bases (14) of machine tools. The mounting support device has three support members. A lower support member (16) is slidably attached to an intermediate member (18) allowing the intermediate member to move along an x-axis. An upper support member (20) is slidably attached to the intermediate member allowing the upper member to move along a z-axis. A jig (T) for holding a workpiece is connected to the upper member. The lower support member is attached to the fixture base in a discrete location in the usual way. Thus, the jig holding the workpiece can be positioned intermediately between discrete mounting positions of the fixture base. The sliding attachments maintain precise alignment between the support members and can be secured after adjustment.

Abstract: In a hook structure for a molded surface fastener, in an arbitrary cross section of each of a stem (11) and a hook-shape engaging portion (12) of a hook (10), the cross-sectional area is divided into front and rear side cross-sectional areas (S1), (S2) with respect to the center line of the hook (10), and the front side cross-sectional area (S1) is defined to be larger than the rear side cross-sectional area (S2). Therefore, the neutral plane of the hook (10) is shifted toward the front side of the stem (11) and the inner side of the hook-shape engaging portion (12) to a further extent than conventional to reduce possible tensile stresses in the front part of the stem (11) and the inner part of the hook-shape engaging portion (12) so that, as compared to the conventional hook made of the same resin quantity and having a substantially similar shape, the strength of the hook is increased sharply and, necessarily, both the front part of the stem and the inner part of the hook-shape engaging portion is increased in rigidity as compared to the other part and hence is difficult to deform, thus causing an increased strength as well as an increased force of engagement with a loop of a companion surface fastener.

Abstract: Multiple testing elements (26) are coupled to a bus (25) operated under the control of a graphically programmed computer (12). The computer (12) interrogates the bus (25) to identify the testing elements (26) coupled thereto. Icons (44) representing the testing elements (26) are displayed in an "Equipment Shelf" window (40). The user drags icons (44') from this window (40) onto a "Test Bench" window (42) and draws lines between I/O ports (4531 ... 4431) on the icons (453 ... 443) to graphically create a test circuit (54). The computer (12) generates bus commands to activate switches (28) to couple the testing elements (26) in the same manner as the graphical test circuit (54). Graphically set test ranges and parameters (472-494) are automatically sent to the testing elements (26) and test results (470) presented on the same computer display (16). The system (10) may be dynamically reconfigured for different tests without hand rewiring or loading of other test programs.

Abstract: A method is provided for detecting moisture in a sterilization chamber or other enclosure (including moisture present on the external or lumened surfaces of an instrument or other load placed in the enclosure). The method includes the steps of exhausting air from the enclosure under vacuum until the pressure in the enclosure is reduced from a starting pressure to a predetermined subatmospheric pressure which is above the saturation pressure of water, and then a second predetermined subatmospheric pressure which is below the saturation pressure of water or other liquid. The times taken to reach each pressure from the starting pressure are measured and their difference is calculated and compared to a reference time difference pre-established for a dry system (or, alternatively, in a known, leak-free system, only the pull-down time period to reach the second subatmospheric pressure is measured and compared to a pre-recorded reference pull-down time for a dry system). When the enclosure contains a lumened instrument, such as an endoscope, fluidly coupled to the exhaust port of the enclosure, the method preferably includes the steps of sensing the temperature in an exhaust conduit fluidly coupled to the exhaust port, during a time period in which the enclosure is evacuated, measuring the minimum temperature reached during the time period and comparing it to a reference minimum temperature pre-established for a dry system.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method capable of automatically adjusting an initial position of the surface of a melt without an operator are provided. In a single crystal puller using a wire as a suspender for a seed crystal for growing a single crystal of silicon or the like according to the CZ method, a reference position of the seed crystal is detected the wire is unwound to lower the end of the wire to a position higher by a distance W-X from the reference position and then pulled upward above said reference position to correct the wire for an extension due to the weight of a single crystal attached thereto. Also, the wire is left above a melt for about ten minutes to provide a constant amount of extension to the wire due to heat of the melt. These operations are automatically performed.
