Inventor: POND RICHARD JAMES
IPC: F16K11/065
Filed: 1993-02-02
Abstract: The control valve comprises a valve body 10 having an internal slideway 14 and a plurality of ports 16 a  to 16 d . The inner ends of the ports are spaced apart along the slideway. A valve operating member 18 is movable within the valve body between first and second positions. A slide valve 20 is movable along the slideway by the valve operating member and is urged into engagement with the slideway by resilient means 22 and sealed in use against the slideway by fluid pressure within the valve body. The inner ends of the ports are in the shape of elongate slots having longitudinal extents which are transverse to the direction of movement of the valve operating member. The slide valve has a cavity 28 in that surface which sealingly engages the slideway for providing fluid communication between a first pair of said ports 16 a  and 16 b  when the valve operating member is in one of its first and second positions and preferably for providing fluid communication between a second pair of said ports 16 b  and 16 c  when the valve operating member is in the other of its first and second positions. The control valve may be a monostable or bistable valve.

Abstract: A method of generating a graphics pattern comprising digital data defining the colour content of pixels of the pattern within a pattern area at a first, high resolution, comprises defining (step 21) the colour content of "seed" pixels at selected positions within the pattern area which are to influence the resultant pattern. The remaining pixels at the first high resolution are considered as having undefined colour content. Successively lower spatial resolution versions of the pattern area are generated in accordance with a predetermined algorithm which, when sufficient defined pixels exist in the next higher resolution version neighbouring an undefined pixel, interpolates colour data for the corresponding lower resolution pixel, until all pixels of a lower resolution version contain defined data (step 25). A version of the pattern area is generated at the first high resolution and the content of at least the previously undefined first high resolution pixels is obtained from the lower resolution versions of the pattern area.

Abstract: A registration method is usable with a projection optical system (1) for projecting first and second patterns of a first object (1a) simultaneously upon a second object (2) having a surface step, for measuring at different locations the surface position of the second object with respect to the direction of optical axis of the projection optical system prior to the pattern projection to bring the surface of the second object into coincidence with an image plane of the projection optical system on the basis of the measurement, wherein the first pattern has a smaller depth of focus than that of the second pattern. The method includes bringing the surface position of the second object, at the location whereat the first pattern is to be projected, into coincidence with the image plane of the projection optical system; and correcting any tilt of the surface of the second object with respect to the image plane of the projection optical system.

Abstract: An SDH cross connect architecture is realized by switching the signals as bits in the space switch. The bit signals between the space switch and the time switches are multiplexed. In this way it is possible to linearly expand the capacity of the space switch to a much larger size before its quadratic expansion begins. The invention is applicable for the cross-connection of SDH signals on i.a. STM-1... STM-16 levels.

Abstract: Des systèmes de vérification automatique des signatures déjà écrites sur des documents ont produit des résultats conduisant au rejet de proportions significatives de signatures authentiques et à l'acceptation de fausses signatures. La vérification de signature selon l'invention applique des techniques de programmation à des caractéristiques statiques extraites d'une signature enregistrée préalablement. Des caractéristiques statiques d'une signature non authentifiée sont comparées aux caractéristiques statiques correspondantes d'un ensemble de signatures authentifiées préalablement. Une différence caractéristique de la signature non authentifiée par rapport à l'ensemble de signatures authentifiées est ensuite dérivée. La signature non authentifiée est vérifiée par mesure de la différence caractéristique par rapport à un seuil déterminé préalablement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling electrolytic silver recovery for two film processing machines which enables the fixing baths to be connected with a silver recovery unit according to their level of silver concentration. According to the invention, the silver concentration in a fixing bath having a liquid connection with the silver recovery unit and in an unconnected fixing bath is continually calculated by electronic means and a control signal is generated when the difference in silver concentration between the connected and the unconnected fixing baths reaches a pre-definable level, said control signal causing actuators to connect the silver recovery unit with the fixing bath having the higher concentration of silver. When the silver concentration reaches a pre-definable level an electrolysing current in the silver recovery unit is switched on and remains switched on until the silver concentration falls below the pre-defined level.
