Abstract: A graphics generator operates on the digital co-ordinates of resolution points of a display device by recursive calculation of a Taylor expansion from a starting point about nearby resolution points to generate display figures such as vectors, circles and arcs. Absolute values of decision variables (f X , f y , f xy ) corresponding to terms of the Taylor expansion are derived in arithmetic circuits (30,34; 32,36; 40,42,44). The values are supplied to a selector circuit (38) which selects by comparison of the values the resolution point associated with the smallest value, and causes running co-ordinate counters (64, 66) to be updated accordingly. The decision variable associated with the selected point is also used as basis f x  for calculating the next group of decision variables. The co-ordinates stored in the counters (64,66) are applied to control the display device (82). 
     The generator provides real time generation of display figures and may be used with raster scan or beam position CRT displays.

Abstract: A video tape signal recording/reproducing apparatus comprises two main rotary heads, M1, M2 and two sub-rotary heads, S1, S2 mounted on a rotatable disc 3. One main rotary head M1 has a +6° azimuth angle and one sub-rotary head S1 has a -6° azimuth angle and is mounted near the main rotary head M1. The other main rotary head M2 has a -6° azimuth angle and the other sub-rotary head S2 has a +6° azimuth angle. The distances between each of the main rotary heads M1, M2 and the corresponding sub-rotary heads S1, S2 are the same and may for example correspond to two horizontal sync intervals. 
     In the fast motion reproduction mode, the main rotary head M1 and the sub-rotary head S1 scan recorded video tracks on the video tape, as a result of which the reproduced signal from the main rotary head M1 includes a number of portions of lower signal level in one field. Similarly, the reproduced signal from the sub-rotary head S1 has a number of such lower signal level portions having opposite phase to that of the main rotary head M1. The reproduced signal from the sub-rotary head S1 compensates for the lower signal level portions of the reproduced signal from the main rotary head M1. Therefore the picture reproduced in the fast motion reproduction mode has no noise bar. In the same manner, the picture has no noise bar in the fast reverse motion mode, the slow motion mode or the still mode. 
     As an alternative, the azimuth angles of associated main and sub-rotary heads can be the same, but the planes of rotation of the main and sub-rotary heads are spaced by an odd number of track pitches.

Abstract: An apparatus for producing and dispensing an aerated frozen confection in which a pump is mounted in the liquid ingredients reservoir of th e apparatus and operates to pump a mixture of air and liquid ingredients, in selected proportions, to the freezer compartment of the apparatus. The pump itself is responsive to pressure within the freezer compartment to regulate the volume of mixture supplied to the freezer compartment by the pump for enabling automatic replenishment of the aerated mix in the freezer compartment. The pump includes a plunger projecting into the freezer compartment and driven by a cam which rotates with an agitator in the freezer compartment to move the plunger against the bias fo a spring in the pump so as to reciprocate the plunger until the pressure within the compartment is great enough to move the plunger away from the cam, against the bias of the spring, thereby discontinuing the supply of mix to the freezer compartment.
