Title: Ink jet image producing device and process for its operation
Inventor: FRANZKE DIETER
IPC: H04N1/60
Filed: 2002-04-29
Abstract: An ink jet image producing device for reproducing digital image data of photographic images is disclosed with at least one printing head (32) which has more than three base colors or ink jet colors available which stretch a color space. A processing device determines the location or color coordinates of color values of the image data in the image space which is stretched by the colors of the printing head. A determining device determines with which base or ink jet printing colors or mixtures or with which densities thereof the color values of the image data can be reproduced. A threshold device (20) is provided which has at least one threshold for a degree of coverage or the like of at least one printing medium. An analysis device analyzes whether a determined color set requires a large or small amount of ink so that the threshold device can select for the printing medium one of the color sets in dependence of the threshold for the printing medium while a printing head control device is used for printing the image data by way of the printing head and with the selected color set.

IPC: G01V1/36
Filed: 2001-01-19
Abstract: A system and method of creating a filter for use with locally dense seismic data is disclosed. The method includes obtaining survey geometry characteristics from a locally dense seismic survey. A filter is designed which uses spatial derivatives of the wavefield of order between (1) and the maximum order of spatial derivatives of the wavefield that can be estimated within a group. The filter can be designed so as to separate up/down going components, p/s components, or both up/down and p/s components. Partial derivatives in space and time of the wavefield can be calculated, using, for example, a taylor series expansion as an approximation. The seismic data is filtered by combining estimated near surface material properties, the seismic data, and the calculated partial derivatives.

Title: Three part cup for packaging cleaning and sterilizing agents and sequential cutter
Inventor: MOSS BERNARD J
IPC: A61L2/18
Filed: 2001-02-05
Abstract: A sequential delivery assembly (30) sequentially releases three different treatment materials into a fluid flow path (24) to form a treatment fluid with a composition which varies throughout a cleaning and microbial decontamination cycle. A chamber (12) receives items to be cleaned and decontaminated. A pump (22) pumps the treatment fluid from the sequential delivery assembly along a fluid flow line (24) to nozzles (16, 18) disposed within the chamber. The nozzles spray the treatment fluid over the items to be cleaned and decontaminated. The delivery assembly includes a well (34) for receiving a three compartment cup (44). The cup contains a first compartment (70) which includes a cleaning material (76), such as a detergent. A second compartment (72) contains pre-treatment materials (78), such as buffers and corrosion inhibitors, which prepare the system for receiving a microbial decontaminant (80), such as a concentrated solution of peracetic acid, contained in the third compartment (74). The sequential delivery assembly includes a cup cutter assembly (46, 230) which sequentially cuts base portions (90, 94, 118) of the three compartments to release the treatment materials into the fluid flow line. The system allows items to be cleaned and then microbially decontaminated in a single process, avoiding the need to handle potentially hazardous instruments between cleaning and decontamination steps and ensures thorough cleaning and decontamination of the instruments with measured doses of the treatment materials.
