Abstract: The technique of the present invention carries out image processing of
image data, which are to be supplied to an image display having a less number of
expressible tones than a number of tones included in original image data and a
non-linear display characteristic. The procedure of the present invention takes
into account the non-linear display characteristic of the image display and corrects
a tone value with regard to each pixel with a look-up table, so as to enhance a tone
distribution corresponding to an area of wide intervals of output lightness, while
reducing a tone distribution corresponding to an area of narrow intervals of the
output lightness. The procedure then carries out a dispersion-type halftoning
process for color reduction to convert the corrected tone values to display tone
values expressible by the image display. A plurality of lookup tables are provided
corresponding to a plurality of settings for a predetermined condition, such as
environmental temperature, affecting the display characteristic of the image
display. The selected lookup table is changeable according to a current setting of
the predetermined condition. This technique of the present invention effectively
improves the picture quality of resulting displayed images on the image display.

Abstract: To clean a continuous blanket (10), in contact with the web (54) at a papermaking or cardboard production machine, the cleaning action is controlled in zones across the blanket width. Measurements are taken over the width of the web or blanket, for at least one web characteristic profile, and especially the web lateral moisture content profile and/or at least one blanket characteristic profile and especially the water content in the blanket and/or the blanket permeability. The blanket is conditioned and cleaned in zones according to the measurements. To clean and condition a continuous blanket, at a paper/cardboard production machine, a mean value is derived for each zone to set a cleaning intensity according to the measured deviation from the mean. The blanket is cleaned at least partially by a traversing jet spray tube, where at least one of the jets has a zonal control. The cleaning system also has a moving suction tube over the zone width, with a ceramic body and surface slits. Moving metal tongues determine the vacuum applied through each slit against the blanket. The moving suction tube can have a short length. The volume of applied cleaning fluid is set according to variable nominal values for the zones, and it is diluted externally, to be applied to the web through the traversing tube jets, or a number of fixed jets for the zones, each with a control valve. The cleaning fluid is a mixture of water and conditioning chemicals. The conditioning chemicals are fed to a unit, which is only used for chemical cleaning, with a controlled delivery to the blanket zones. The cleaning action is through a number of applicators (46,48) across the blanket width. The blanket characteristics are determined by an on-line measurement unit (44), linked to the applicators in a closed control circuit. A set mean characteristic value is used and/or a given characteristic ratio is set between the upper blanket (101) and the lower blanket (102) to give the required dry content and/or lateral moisture content profile after each press nip (50). Directly after the web press section, the lateral moisture content profile is measured and/or the amount of extracted water is measured at the catch trough and/or through the suction tube, to set the actions at the cleaning and conditioning zones across the blanket. An Independent claim is included for a suction tube, with a ceramic body, across the blanket width. The tube surface has slits, with metal tongues to set the slit dimensions and control the vacuum applied to the blanket.

Abstract: A control apparatus (40,48,50) for suppressing
vibrations of an engine (2) when combustion is stopped. The
control apparatus maintains an engine rotational speed (NE)
at a reference rotational speed for a reference time when the
combustion of the engine is automatically stopped. This
results in a reduction in pressure in a combustion chamber of
the engine. The control apparatus gradually reduces the
rotational speed of the crankshaft, and stops the crankshaft
before the rotational speed of the crankshaft reaches a
resonant speed. In this way, the resonance and increased
pressure in the combustion chamber are prevented to reduce
vibrations of the vehicle.
