Abstract: A method and apparatus for densely packing wire (11) in a storage drum (62) is provided. A capstan (12) is provided for pulling welding wire (11) at a set rotational velocity. The welding wire (11) is then provided to a rotatable laying head (21) which receives the wire (11) from the capstan (12), and in turn rotates with a storage drum (62) placed on a rotatable turntable (54). As the welding wire (11) is placed within the turntable (54) in layers, the turntable (54) is indexed relative to the storage drum axis and the rotational velocity of the capstan (12) and laying head (21) is altered, which causes the welding wire (11) to be placed in a layer different from the first layer. This indexing is continued until the storage drum (62) is full, forming alternating bands of welding wire (11) to increase the packing density of the storage drum (62).

Abstract: In a mobile phone of the present invention, de-spread circuits execute de-spread processing for receiving signals, and rake combines compose a plurality of information in the outputs of the de-spread circuits in correspondence to base stations, and calculate receiving levels of power control signals in individual channels in correspondence to the base stations to output the power control signals each having receiving level information to a comparator. The comparator outputs only the power control signal having the receiving level lying within a predetermined range from a maximum receiving level of the receiving levels of the power control signals from among the plurality of base stations to a decision circuit. The decision circuit decides based on the power control signal from the comparator whether a transmission power from the mobile phone should be increased or decreased to control the transmission power of a transmitter circuit, thereby preventing misrecognition of the power control signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention aims to estimate from an image an original pupil color of a subject person in an image in which an abnormality such as a red-eye or gold-eye occurs. Further, the present invention aims to judge whether an image correction is required or not and to produce an image having a natural pupil color in the image correction by estimating the original pupil color from the image. The present invention provides a pupil color estimating device wherein a skin color of a subject person is specified from an inputted image, regardless of whether an abnormality such as a red-eye or gold-eye occurs, whereupon this skin color is substituted in an approximate equation based upon a statistical result carried out in advance, thereby estimating a normal color component of a pupil from the skin color of the subject person.
