Title: Rotor for centrifugal separator
Inventor: HALLGREN INGVAR
IPC: B04B1/04
Filed: 1999-03-30
Abstract: In a rotor for a centrifugal separator there is delimited at one rotor end a distribution chamber (24) for a pressurised liquid supplied to the rotor for being cleaned from particles, and at the opposite rotor end there are liquid outlets arranged for reaction drive of the rotor. The liquid outlets open on the rotor outside in a liquid free space radially spaced from the rotational axis of the rotor. The separation chamber (7) of the rotor, which is situated between the distribution chamber (24) and the outlets (27), contains arcuate separation discs (11), which are distributed around the rotational axis (10) of the rotor and formed such that a lot of axially extending separation channels are delimited, which have a relatively small through-flow resistance to liquid to be cleaned. The separation channels extend axially from the distribution chamber (24) to a collecting chamber (25). The collecting chamber (25) communicates with an outlet chamber (26) at a radial level in the rotor corresponding to that of the radially innermost parts of the separation discs. By the invention efficient separation can be accomplished and the largest possible part of the pressure of the supplied liquid can be used for the rotation of the rotor.

Title: Method and apparatus for generating images
Inventor: OKA MASAAKI
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2000-05-18
Abstract: An image generating apparatus and image generating method determine the distribution state of dot-sequences on a two-dimensional screen using two-dimensional Gaussian distribution in the event that the plurality of dot-sequences randomly exist in a sphere within the three-dimensional space. An image of dot-sequences is generated on the two-dimensional screen based on the distribution state on the two-dimensional screen. The two-dimensional Gaussian distribution can be factored to the product of one-dimensional Gaussian distributions, and the one-dimensional Gaussian distributions can be generated by uniform random numbers. Thus, it is easy to create an image by projecting a plurality of dot-sequences randomly existing in a three-dimensional space onto a two-dimensional screen.
