Patent EP-0260082-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ZOUZOULAS JOHN
IPC: B65H29/46
Filed: 1987-09-04
Abstract: An improved banknote stacker is described which achieves reduced levels of jamming and improper stacking. A banknote is directed to a prestorage compartment using a pulley, belt and roller drive assembly. During a pusher cycle, a pusher plate drives the banknote from the prestorage compartment into a banknote storage magazine, and then the pusher plate returns to its original position. Just prior to the pusher cycle, rollers in the roller drive assembly are retracted to release the banknote. The pusher plate is specially designed to prevent banknote slippage, and it is preferably driven by the same drive mechanism which retracts the rollers to insure that a pusher cycle will follow shortly after the retraction of the rollers.

Abstract: A shift device for a prosthetic limb comprises: first and second plates (10, 12) having adjoining flat faces in sliding contact. Spaced parallel ribs (14) on an outer face of each plate (10, 12) define a slideway (16). Guides in the slideways (16) of the first and second plates (10, 12) enable the plates (10, 12) to move generally at right angles to one another. The guides include first and second guide bars (26) slideably received in each slideway (16). One or more longitudinal slots (20) in each slideway (16) permit limited relative translational movement of the plates (10, 12). Clamping screws (30) pass through each slot (20) of each of the first and second plates (10, 12) into the guide bar (26) in the slideway (16) of the other plate (12, 10). The clamping screws (30) are releasable to allow relative movement of the plates (10, 12) and on re-tightening immobilise the plates (10, 12).

Abstract: Process and apparatus for upset forging a long stand of solid malleable metal bar stock (24) in a single pass is capable of gathering a large volume of the bar stock (24) into a complex shaped element. The end of the bar stock is selectively heated to provide an intermediate section (46a) thereof to a desired upper forging temperature and an end section (46b) thereof at a desired lower forging temperature. The heated bar stock is positioned in an upset forging die cavity (20, 22). A forging punch (92) enters the cavity to upset the long stand to fill the cavity (24) firstly with the upset intermediate section (46a) and then the remainder of the cavity (86) with the end section which is at a lower forging temperature. A friction reducing material is provided in the cavity to provide for sliding of the end section (46b) along the cavity while the end section (46b) upsets and gathers the intermediate section (46a) of the bar in the major portion of the upset cavity section (84).

Abstract: The multi-recording apparatus of an electronic musical instrument pre-records performance information designated by event data representative of events of depressed or released keys and generation timings of the events. The performance information is recorded in a memory having a plurality of channels. When newly inputted performance information is supplied from the electronic musical instrument to this multi-­recording apparatus in a recording mode, the pre-recorded performance information is reproduced from a selected channel, so that a player can listen to musical tones corresponding to the pre-recorded performance information. At the same time, the newly inputted performance information is over-recorded with the pre-recorded performance information on the same selected channel, whereby a multi-recording can be done.

Abstract: The predictive coding method and related apparatus (100) which (a) computes a value D representing the difference between an original graylevel value for a current pixel and a predicted value for the current pixel; (b) associates (102) each successive range of D values to a respective quantization level, each quantization level QN having a respective QN value represen∉ing the range corresponding thereto; (c) sets (106) a respective QERR value to D for the current pixel, when the QN value is zero; (d) re-maps (108) m QERR values to n (n ≦ m) MERR values; assigns to the value MERR=0 those QERR values in which |QERR| ≦ (+Q1 VALUE)/2; (e) sums (110) the MERR values for successive pixels in a QN=Q0 region; and (f) adjusts (104) the QN value from the value of Q0 by the value of Q1 for a pixel at which the summed value reaches (112, 114) a predefined threshold. QN values, adjusted as appropriate, are subjected to entropy coding compression (120) and decompression. In the decompression process (126, 130), pixel values are reconstructed. According to the invention, the reconstructed values are subjected to a vertical filter (132) in which a pixel having a reconstructed value I₀ is filtered to have a value 
 
    Iʹ₀ = I₀ + [(I₋₁ - I₀) C-  + (I₊₁ - I₀) C+ ]
