Abstract: The invention concerns a sun-tanning device, in particular a tanning bed for sunning parlours. The aim of the invention is to improve the disadvantageous air cooling and the efficacy of known tanning beds and to obviate the necessity of individually replacing defective mercury vapour lamps by hand, which is environmentally harmful. This is achieved by using a fluid heat exchanger placed immediately behind the tubes (1), several of which are arranged in one module (11) which can be replaced by servicing technicians.

Abstract: A method of encoding images (1) including areas (11) of relevant pixels and areas (12) of irrelevant pixels (e.g. a background) is disclosed. The pixels of the irrelevant area are replaced (4) by pseudo-pixels smoothing the transition between said areas. The image thus obtained is subsequently subjected to conventional image coding (5) which now yields considerably fewer bits. At the receiver end, the pseudo-pixels are replaced (9) by predetermined background pixels to reconstruct the original boundaries (13). If the boundary between both areas is not known in advance, the boundary is detected (2), encoded (3) and transmitted to the receiver. The invention is particularly applicable to compression of medical images having circular areas of interest, but may also be used to encode other video images having irrelevant areas such as videophone images in which a head-and-shoulder area constitutes relevant information only.

Abstract: Processes and devices for confining, retaining and sucking off vapors, fumes, dust or similar materials including dispersed or dissolved vapor particles in a fluid medium. In order to separate these pollution particles, a fluid boundary layer or front is generated by diverting a jet against a boundary surface. The curved jet forms a vortex flow retaining the particles and transports them to the suction surfaces. The process and device are especially useful for exhaust hoods in the kitchen field and in the field of clean rooms, furthermore, in those fields, where fluid media with different characteristics are to be separated, confined and suctioned off.
