Abstract: A hierarchical image coding apparatus 101 of the
present invention, as shown in figure 1, comprises a
subsampling unit 2 for subsampling a high-resolution image
signal Hg as an input image signal to produce a low-resolution
image signal LSg, a low-resolution coding section
101L for sequentially coding the low-resolution image signal
LSg for each block comprising a plurality of pixels, and
a high-resolution coding section 101H for sequentially
coding the high-resolution image signal for each block
comprising a plurality of pixels, wherein the high-resolution
image signal HSg is coded by referring to the
low-resolution image signal LSg corresponding to a reference
low-resolution block located at the same spatial position
as a target high-resolution block to be coded. 
     In the hierarchical image coding apparatus 101 so
constructed, an image signal including shape information
of an object can be hierarchically coded without degrading
coding efficiency.

Abstract: RFQ electrodes for use as an acceleration tube of
a high energy ion implanter, capable of accelerating
an ion beam of large current without divergence are
arranged, with respect to a low resonance frequency of
substantially 33 MHz suitable for heavy ions such as
B, P, and As, such that a radius R 1  of a beam passage
spacing surrounded by four RFQ electrodes is 5 mm to
9 mm, a curvature R 2  in a direction perpendicular to an
axis of a crest portion of respective crest and trough
portions on surfaces of the electrodes in a beam
propagation direction is 5 mm to 9 mm, and a height H
from a peak of the crest portion to a bottom surface
is set so that H/R 1  is 4 to 6. When the height H of the
electrodes is reduced, while shunt impedance is
increased and power efficiency is improved, a cooling
ability becomes insufficient due to the fact that a
cross section of a coolant channel cannot be
increased, and a problem is presented that oscillation
of electrodes is likely to occur due to insufficient
mechanical strength. However, by adopting the above
arrangement, an optimum configuration of the RFQ
electrodes is obtained, in which power efficiency is
high, cooling efficiency is superior, a mechanical
strength is sufficient, and beam acceptance is large.

Abstract: A closed circuit ( 13 ) is formed such that the upper ends
of preinstalled refrigerant pipes ( 2A, 2B ) in a refrigerant
circuit are connected to each other through an upper connecting
passage ( 11 ) and the lower ends thereof are connected to each
other through a lower connecting passage ( 12 ). A refrigerant
is charged into the closed circuit ( 13 ). In a separator ( 50 )
of the lower connecting passage ( 12 ), a separating heat exchange
coil ( 52 ) heats the liquid refrigerant to evaporate it, and
a filter ( 53 ) captures foreign substance from the gas refrigerant.
Two conveying heat exchangers ( 7A ,  7B ) of the lower connecting
passage ( 12 ) alternately carry out a repetitive cooling
operation of cooling the gas refrigerant, having been changed
in phase by the separator ( 50 ), to change the phase from gas
to liquid and a repetitive pressurizing operation of
pressurizing the liquid refrigerant by heating the refrigerant
to the extent kept in the liquid phase, respectively, thereby
applying a running force to the refrigerant. The refrigerant
cleans the preinstalled refrigerant pipes ( 2A ,  2B ) in a manner
of circulating in the closed circuit ( 13 ) from the conveying
heat exchangers ( 7A ,  7B ).

On forme ensuite des associations (14) entre des séries de Fourier en filtrant ces séries de Fourier et en utilisant la similarité spectrale existant entre ces séries de Fourier filtrées, de manière à définir une association entre ces séries sur la base d'une loi de Poisson. Puis on additionne ces séries de Fourier associées de manière à former des chaînes (16) de séries de Fourier. On ordonne ces chaînes en les filtrant à l'aide de plusieurs filtres définis, afin de former plusieurs sous-ensembles de séries de Fourier formatés par rapport à l'ordre dans le temps, et en établissant un ordre par association avec une ou plusieurs chaînes initialement ordonnées, afin de former une chaîne ordonnée. On forme en outre des associations entre lesdites chaînes ordonnées, de manière à former des chaînes ordonnées complexes apparentées à des unités d'intérêt identiques.

Abstract: The appts. to combine a staple fiber yarn (F) with an elastane stretch yarn (E), by an air eddy action, has at least three jets (2,2',2) in succession where the yarns (F,E) are continuously eddied by air. The two outer jets (2,2) twist the yarns in one direction, and the center jet (2') twists the yarns in the opposite direction. A unit to block yarn twisting is in front of the first jet (2) and after the final jet (2) in the direction (A) of yarn travel.  The yarn twist block is applied by yarn guides (3), offset from the axis of the jets (2,2',2). Each yarn guide (3) works with a yarn deflector (4), offset from the jet axis in the opposite direction to the yarn guide position. The yarn guides (3) and deflectors (4) are rotating rollers. The intervals are equal between the jets (2,2',2), at 30-80 mm and pref. 44 mm. The gaps between the yarn guides (3) and their adjacent jets are equal, but less than the gaps between the jets and pref. one-half the jet interval. The jets (2,2',2) are connected to an air reservoir chamber (1), with two air connections (5) to give an equal air delivery to all the jets (2,2',2). The air delivery to the jets is controlled by a proportional valve to set the air pressure as a function of the yarn travel speed. A controlled yarn brake is at the entry into the assembly (V), with a clamping force which is indirectly proportional to the yarn movement speed. The entry zone into the assembly (V) has a sufficient length to compensate for tension swings in the two yarns (E,F), or the staple fiber yarn (F) and the elastane stretch yarn (E) are fed into the system by separate feeds (6,7).
