Abstract: A substantially uncurved and unwaved plywood (A) includes at 
least one pair of veneers (11, 12) located symmetrically with respect to 
a middle of a thickness of the plywood and having unstraight 
grains which coincide with each other.  
     A method for producing a substantially uncurved and unwaved 
plywood comprises locating at least one pair of veneers (11, 12) with 
identical unstraight grains in a pair of positions symmetrical 
with respect to a middle of a thickness of a plywood to be 
produced, in such a manner than the grains of the veneers coincide 
with each other.  
     A simple method for continuously preparing pairs of veneers 
with identical unstraight grains comprises (i) peeling from a 
cylindrical log (1) with unstraight fibers a continuous sheet (14) of 
twice a thickness of each one of a pair of veneers to be 
prepared, (ii) cutting the sheet into a predetermined length to 
provide a thick veneer (15), and (iii) slicing the thick veneer (15) at a 
middle of a thickness thereof to prepare a pair of veneers (16, 17) with

Title: Drying process for improving the filling capacity of tobacco material and apparatus for carrying out this process
IPC: A24B3/18
Filed: 1992-05-07
Abstract: In a drying process for improving the filling capacity of tobacco material, the cut and humidified tobacco material is conveyed in a stream of drying gas, dried within a tubular drying section and then separated from the drying gas. At a point where it is charged into the drying section, the drying gas has a temperature of at least 200 DEG C and a flow velocity of at least 30 m/sec. The flow velocity of the drying gas is reduced in the drying section. The flow velocity of the drying gas is in this case at most 100 m/sec at the point where it is charged into the drying section. Within the drying section, the flow velocity of the tobacco material is also reduced along with the reduction in the flow velocity of the drying gas in order to reduce the local heat transfer coefficient and the local mass transfer coefficient between the surface of the tobacco material and the surrounding drying gas. At the end of the drying section, the drying gas has a flow velocity of at most 15 m/sec and a temperature of at most 130 DEG C. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0516437-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06F11/14
Filed: 1992-05-28
Abstract: An arrangement for detecting an error in writing data into a memory is disclosed. A data flow direction controller is responsive to a control signal applied thereto and allows data to be written, via a data terminal, into the memory during a preset time duration of a write cycle. The controller then steers the data, which corresponds to the data stored in the memory and which appears at the data terminal, to a data comparator in response to an error check timing signal which appears during a second preset time duration of the write cycle. The data comparator is therefore supplied with the original write data and the data already stored during the presence of the error check timing signal and produces a signal indicative of the error during the second preset time duration, in the event that the original write data does not coincide with the data indicative of what has been stored in response thereto. <IMAGE>

generated after the recovery operation has been 
executed by the recovering unit, for controlling the 
recovering unit to execute the next recovery operation 
which provides a larger recovery amount than that of 
the first recovery operation on the basis of a state 
of the recording head from a time at which the first 
recovery operation was completed to a time at which 
the instruction is issued to the recovering unit to 
execute the next recovery operation.
