Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer which can produce an ultrasonic image having a high resolution and a high detection depth, comprising a piezoelectric element (1) having a concave surface on a side where ultrasonic waves are transmitted or received, and first and second acoustic matching layers (3,4) formed on the concave surface of the piezoelectric element, the first acoustic matching layer (3) being laid on a side near to the piezoelectric element and having an ununiform thickness with a maximum thickness of about quarter wavelength, and the second acoustic matching layer (4) being laid on the side near to an object to be detected and having an uniform thickness of about quarter wavelength. Thereby, the ultrasonic transducer including the acoustic matching layers having the maximum thickness set to about quarter wave length and the piezoelectric element exhibit a normal distribution type frequency characteristic over a wide range, and can allow the piezoelectric element has an arbitrary curvature so that an ultrasonic wave can be converged at a position having an arbitrary distance.

Abstract: An output buffer circuit is disclosed that operates in low voltage applications but can be programmed using standard programmers at high voltage. The output buffer circuit provides for detecting a program verify logic signal from the programmer and slowing the output driver transistors when that signal is detected. In so doing, the noise problems associated with the higher voltages of programming a EPROM device are eliminated while at the same time allowing the output buffer circuit to operate at the required performance levels during normal operation.

Abstract: High-resolution, progressive format video signals (on C3100) having high frame rates may be encoded by a base layer encoder (C3140) and an enhancement layer encoder (C3180) to provide two kinds of encoded video signals which share a common output channel (C3260). These encoded video signals are received at an input (C3270) of a video receiver which may use one or both of the two kinds of encoded video signal. Relatively lower performance high-definition televisions may thus receive video signals from higher performance transmitters and produce satisfactory pictures. Higher performance HDTVs will be able to utilize the full performance capabilities of these video signals.

Abstract: The invention provides a new and improved process and exothermic reaction mixture for use in the process for producing molten weld metal. The molten weld metal is used in joining one non-ferrous metal piece with at least one other metal piece. The process and exothermic reaction mixture have distinct advantages over the prior art. These advantages include a higher filler metal yield, reduction of odor, and a higher quality corrosion resistant weld. These advantages are accomplished by a process wherein a reactant mixture is provided which has a reducing agent, a filler metal which does not react with any of the compounds of the mixture, and two or more metallic compounds which are exothermically reduced by the reducing agent. The metallic compounds subsequently form a compound, with the reducing agent, having a high heat of formation which provides an exothermic reaction with sufficient heat to melt the filler metal. The reactant mixture is exothermically reacted to release heat and melt the filler metal and provide a flow of filler metal from the reactant and product mixture which may be contacted with objects to be welded by the filler metal.

Abstract: Apparatus for inspecting the wall thickness of non-round containers includes capacitive sensors which cooperate with oscillator means to provide voltage signals corresponding to container wall thickness to electronic processors which convert the voltage signals to corresponding thickness values and compare them with the desired thickness values. The apparatus subjects the containers to translational movement through the inspection zone while resisting rotational movement. The sensors have at least one sensor element having capacitive sensor portions that are not in the same plane as other capacitive sensor elements or a single sensor element having portions in more than one plane. The sensor elements may be individual sensor elements which are each adapted to inspect different portions of a container or may, in another embodiment, be a single sensor element. The sensors are adapted to be movably mounted so as to maintain efficient contact with non-round containers during inspection. Among the types of containers which may be inspected by the apparatus are generally rectangular and generally oval containers. A corresponding method is provided.

Abstract: Video magnification apparatus (46) modifies (shrinks or enlarges) video graphic images in a horizontal and vertical direction during a transfer of video graphics data signals from a graphics memory to a television screen. A first magnification modifying device (160) modifies the magnification of a graphic by a vertical magnification factor by generating graphic line address output signals that selectively prevent a transmission of predetermined horizontal lines of the graphic upon the reception of a vertical magnification factor that is less than unity. The first device also causes a transmission of predetermined horizontal lines of the graphic to be selectively repeated upon the reception of a vertical magnification factor that is greater than unity. A second magnification modifying device (98) is responsive to the transmissions of the horizontal lines of the graphic indicated for transmission by the output signals of the first magnification modifying means for modifying the magnification of the graphic in a horizontal direction by a horizontal magnification factor. The second magnification modifying device selects N predetermined pixels of each received X pixel group that are multiplexed into a transmitting X pixel group for transmission in each output signal of the apparatus for a magnification factor equal to or less than unity. Still further, the second device repeats pixels of each received X pixel group a number of times corresponding to an integer magnification factor that is greater than unity for transmission in each output signal of the apparatus.
