Abstract: The invention relates to a device for automatically replacing heatable tools in a suitable device, said heatable tools being used for finishing milled profile surfaces of workpieces that are made of wood and timber products. The aim of the invention is to insert within a short period of time heatable tools that are provided with a different profile structure so as to sustainably increase productivity in previously known methods for finishing surfaces. Said aim is achieved by providing the inventive device with a machine-fixed seat (1) and an adapter (13) which thermally insulates the heatable tool (7) from the seat (1). Said adapter (13) is fixed and locked at a conical intersecting point (2) of the seat (1), which comprises detachable connections (10) transmitting power to the heating medium, e.g. a heating cartridge (9), whereby the heated tools can be removed from the machining station and be stored in a device before and after the finishing process while new (pre)heated tools (7) having different profile shapes are placed in the machining station.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for eliminating artifacts in images formed using more than one image segment. A buffer region associated with two adjacent image segments is defined wherein the intensity levels of the pixels are attenuated. When image segments substantially overlap in the buffer region, the intensity in the buffer region substantially sums to full scale. The intensity of the pixels in the buffer region is preferably attenuated using a device to modulate the intensity of the source of radiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a seat fixing, in particular for rail vehicles for personal transport. The aim of the invention is to disclose a seat fixing which may be flexibly applied, independent of the usual height and positional variation of the C-rails, whereby said flexibility permits the number of differing seat holders to be reduced, thus leading to a lower price. Three or more different seat heights (between the range DeltaH≅120 mm) should also be capable of being set and should be simple to assemble and various seat shell thicknesses or different types of cushion systems from different manufacturers should also be capable of being positioned in the functionally required seat height. The above is achieved with a seat fixing comprising a horizontal support, fixed on one side to vertical elements and at least one cross-piece, fixed on one side to the horizontal support and on the other side to the vertical elements and/or to the floor in the vicinity of a corner region between the vertical elements and a floor. The horizontal support is fixed to an upper connection point on the vertical elements by means of a side wall adaptation element, in which the side wall adaptation element comprises at least two housing points of the horizontal support and/or the upper connection point, which gives a variable seat height.

Abstract: A method of operating a continuously pumped, Q-switched laser to provide trains of pulses for laser operations is disclosed. The laser includes a solid-state gain-medium that exhibits a thermal-lensing effect on being optically pumped. Pulse delivery is controlled by a Q-switch that is in a normally-open state when the laser is not delivering pulses. This allows the laser to deliver CW laser radiation when pulses are not being delivered. A train of pulses is delivered by repeatedly interrupting the CW operation by closing then reopening the Q-switch. When the Q-switch reopens after the interruption, the laser delivers a pulse of laser radiation, then resumes delivery of CW operation until the next interruption. The inventive Q-switching method provides, by means of this one particular repeated Q-switch operation, that the thermal-lensing effect in the gain-medium before, during, and between delivery of pulse trains remains constant, and that all pulses in a pulse train have the same peak power.
