Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes an ultrasound
transducer for sequentially emitting ultrasound beams and
receiving respective echoes of the ultrasound beams to
produce a scanning plane; a mechanism for displacing the
ultrasound transducer to move the scanning plane in a three-dimensional
region; a three-dimensional image data generator
for sequentially obtaining echo data of the respective
ultrasound beams from the echo of the respective ultrasound
beams upon receipt of the echo by the ultrasound transducer,
and for sequentially generating, based on the echo data of
the respective ultrasound beams, brightness value data for
each ultrasound beam corresponding to a brightness value for
one [1] pixel in an ultrasound image for the three-dimensional
region; a memory, having addresses corresponding
to respective pixels in the ultrasound image, for
sequentially storing the brightness value data for the
respective ultrasound beams generated by the three-dimensional
image data generator at the corresponding
addresses thereof; and a display for displaying the
ultrasound image based on the brightness value data stored
in the memory. This apparatus can produce a new three-dimensional
ultrasound image having properties of both a
stereographic surface image and a stereographic transparent
image like an X-ray in a real time.

Abstract: An inexpensive flat electric wire for a wire harness
and an inexpensive wire harness utilizing the flat electric
wire can be produced. A flat electric wire (P) is produced
by juxtaposing a plurality of insulator-sheathed electric
wire elements (a), each having a single core, on a plane;
and by applying a reinforcing tape (51) on the juxtaposed
wire elements (a) at a desired position over the width of
the elements (a), whereby the wire elements (a) are secured
together to each other by the tape (51) to form the flat
electric wire (P) for a wire harness. A wire harness (d)
having connectors at opposite ends is produced by winding
the flat electric wire (P) for a wire harness on a reel
(61) beforehand; by drawing the flat electric wire (P)
from the reel (61); by measuring and cutting (A) the flat
electric wire (P); by carrying the cut-off flat electric
wire (P) in a juxtaposed direction while holding opposite
ends of the cut-off flat electric wire (P) by grippers;
and by treating opposite ends of the cut-off flat electric
wire (P) during the carrying step by means of stripping (B)

Abstract: There is disclosed a large-sized transmission-type screen
used for a multi-image system. If the screen expands or
contracts due to variations of the ambient temperature or
humidity, generation of creases or relieves is prevented. The
transmission-type screen comprises image sources for
projecting and magnifying optical images, screen members for
transmitting the projected optical images, first light-blocking
members (30) mounted to edges of the screen members, a
support member (10) having tensioning mechanisms (20). Each tensioning
mechanism applies a tension to the first light-blocking members
to hold the components of the screen members in intimate contact
with the support member. Each screen member comprises a
lenticular lens sheet (41), a composite Fresnel sheet (43) consisting of
sheet members bonded vertically, and plural transparent
reinforcing sheets (44). Each reinforcing sheet is substantially
identical in size with each sheet member of the composite
Fresnel sheet. A second light-blocking member is bonded
between the two adjacent transparent reinforcing sheets to
prevent the optical images from the adjacent image sources from
overlapping.

Abstract: A method for replacing parts of a digitally coded
picture (11) is proposed. The digitally coded picture
(11) may correspond to a sub-picture which is displayed
on the screen of a television set (10). In the method,
each line of the picture (11) is run length-coded. The
replaceable parts of a line of the picture are run
length-coded separately. The part which replaces the
replaceable, original part of a line of the picture (11)
is run length-coded in such a way that it has the same
number of data units (data bytes) as the original part of
this line of the picture (11). The replacement of the
data for the run length coding words is carried out in a
memory device. The replacement is possible in a
simple manner by virtue of the fact that the original
part of a line of the picture and the new part of the
line of the picture have the same number of data units.
Moreover, a device for carrying out the method is also
proposed.

Abstract: Reflux diode 5u∼5w and 5x∼5z are in anti-parallel
connected to MOSFET 4u∼4w and 4x∼4z. When MOSFET 4u∼4w
and 4x∼4z are turned OFF, an electric current flows in a
forward direction to reflux diode 5u∼5w and 5x∼5z. In
the case of this construction, when for example reflux
diode 5u disconnects, a small inverse voltage is applied
from inverse voltage applied circuit 7 to reflux diode
5u. For this reason, as the inverse recovery of reflux
diode 5u is produced by low voltage direct current power
source 8 of inverse voltage applied circuit 7, loss
occurring at reflux diode 5u is reduced.

Abstract: A plant control system controls a plant (E) modeled
