Abstract: The method of processing postal objects of large size in order to read automatically a postal address (AD) on each object consists in acquiring a digital image of each object at a certain level of resolution; in detecting in the image one or more zones of interest (ZI) apparently containing a postal address; in performing automatic address recognition on each zone of interest in order to extract a postal address (AD) of the object, and in the event of the automatic address recogition failing, in displaying each zone of interest (ZI) on a screen so that a video-coding operator can read the postal address (AD) of the object. Each zone of interest (ZI) is displayed on the screen on a screen context background (F) that is representative of the object but at a level of resolution that is lower than the level of resolution of the digital image and the zone of interest. In this way, the video-coding operator has an overall view of the detected zones of interest, thus making it easier to read the postal address of the object.

Abstract: A splicing tape for splicing a leading edge portion of the outer turn of a roll of sheet material to a second sheet material. A typical application is to join the outer turn of a replacement roll of paper to the end of depleted roll of paper while the paper remains in motion through some handling apparatus. The splicing tape comprises a first tape component, and second tape component, and a layer of adhesive separably joining the first and second tape components. The first tape component includes a first backing, a first layer of adhesive on a first surface of the first backing, and a first barrier layer on a second surface of the first backing. The second tape component includes a second backing, a second layer of adhesive on a first surface of the second backing, and a second barrier layer on a second surface of the second backing. Alternatively, the splicing tape may include only one barrier layer between the joining adhesive layer and one of the first and second backings. The layer of adhesive separably joins the first and second tape components at their respective barrier layers. Also disclosed are methods of manufacture and methods of use of the inventive splicing tape.

Abstract: The invention relates to a control method for gas burners for providing a gas-air mixture. According to the invention, the ionization signal is only used for setting the mixing ratio dependent on the gas quality when the burner flame completely sweeps over the sensor generating the ionization signal. Outside the above-mentioned range, i.e. when the burner flame does not completely sweep over the sensor generating the ionization signal, the gas-air mixture is controlled dependent on the previously determined mixing ratio.

Abstract: Dysglucaemia is treated and/or prevented by the administration of granulated starch, enzymatically degraded and releasing reducing sugars at a rate, adjusted to the metabolism of the patient, suffering from dysglucaemia. For example nocturnal hypoglycaemia in diabetic patients is prevented by administering to said patients a granulate or tablets comprising granulated cornstarch, and preferably also heat treated cornstarch and a low calorie sweetener. The inventive granulation minimises the available surface area and retards the enzymatic degradation of the cornstarch and ensures a controlled, e.g. a substantially linear release of reducing sugars, such as glucose, and a stable blood glucose level during several hours. The granulate or tablets are low in calories and contain no free sugar.

Abstract: A fuel tank for a motor vehicle defining at least two interconnecting with the intercommunication being by way of a tank region of smaller cross-section than the chambers, defining a saddle tank configuration. A first of the chambers contains a fuel delivery unit and a second of the chambers has a refuelling vent valve which is the only refuelling vent valve of the tank. The two chambers also communicate with each other by way of a compensating line on the basis of the principle of communicating vessels. The tank also has means for venting the compensating line. The compensating line is such that equalisation of the filling levels of the intercommunicating chambers is possible only when there is a drop in level from the second chamber to the first chamber.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of generating an advertisement print comprising advertisement information, where the advertisement print is optimised for being positioned on a surface of a substantially plane print carrier, where the substantially plane print carrier has a predefined surface area. The method comprises the step of projecting the predefined surface area to a plane perpendicular to a line of sight between a predefined viewpoint and the print carrier, placing the advertisement information within boundaries of the projected predefined surface area and generating the advertisement print by graphically transforming the projected predefined surface area together with the advertisement information to an area similar to the predefined surface area of the substantially plane print carrier. The invention further relates to an advertisement print being printed on a substantially plane print carrier. The print is optimised to be placed on a surface of an inclined plane having a first inclination, and the print comprises a first element being a perspective projection of a first three-dimensional element to the inclined plane. The projection is optimised to a predefined viewpoint, where a supporting surface of the three-dimensional element is parallel to a supporting plane having a second inclination being different from the first inclination. <IMAGE>
