Abstract: Method and device for separating one or more organs
or a part thereof from a cluster (38;161;210) consisting of
a strong organ and other interconnected internal organs of
a slaughtered animal (80), in particular a slaughtered
bird. In a first step, the cluster (161;210) is taken out
of the body of the slaughtered animal. Next, the strong
organ is fixed and the cluster (161;210) is brought in a
spatial orientation which is determined by the way of
fixing. Tissue connections in the cluster (161;210) are
broken on the basis of the spatial orientation of the
cluster in the maintained condition of fixing.

Abstract: Motion vectors and associated errors which are determined in the course of encoding a
video signal are used to determine whether respective macroblocks of two or more frames
represent the same subject matter albeit displaced by motion represented by the frames. The
motion vector errors are compared to a predetermined motion threshold. If a particular motion
vector error is less than the motion threshold, the macroblocks corresponding to the motion
vector error are determined to represent substantially identical subject matter and the
corresponding motion vector represents displacement of the subject matter between the frames
due to motion of the subject matter. Accordingly, differences between the macroblocks
corresponding to the motion vector error are determined to be due primarily to noise and not to
differences in the subject. Therefore, a relatively heavy temporal filter is applied between the
macroblocks. Conversely, if a particular motion vector error is not less than the motion threshold,
the macroblocks corresponding to the motion vector error are determined to represent different
subject matter and only a spatial filter is applied to either macroblock. The spatial filter is applied
relatively lightly to reduce noise while minimizing signal loss, e.g., blurring, resulting from the
filtering. The motion threshold is set according to the noise variance of the video signal which is
being encoded. The noise variance of the video signal can be measured using the video signal
acquisition equipment used to acquire the video signal, e.g., a video camera, or can be estimated
from the video signal itself.

predetermined secret key is input to an input section that
is a part of a program execution system, and encrypted
sentences as the encrypted application program are supplied
to a decoding section as they are. The decoding section is
supplied not only with the encrypted sentences from the
input section but also with a publicized key corresponding

IPC: A22B5/00
Filed: 1998-05-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the evisceration of carcasses conveyed on a slaughter
line suspended in gambrels or hooks, where the abdomen and breast have been cut open, the
hams divided and the fat end loosened, and wherein the carcass intestines are loosened,
removed and placed on a gut pan or conveyor, the diaphragm is loosened and the plucks are
removed and placed on a plucks conveyor. In loosening of the intestines, the connections of
the intestines with the spinal column are broken, so that the intestines are made to hang out
of the abdominal cavity. The diaphragm and leaf fat are loosened mechanically while the
intestines are hanging out of the carcass and are connected to the plucks. The latter loosening
is effected by a pressing device (5) and a hoop device (6) which can be moved independent
of each other in the lengthways direction of the carcass. 
     By means of the method, the intestines and plucks can be removed as a set of organs from the
carcass and are subsequently separated, providing hygienic advantages. Alternatively separation
may be carried out after the connection between the intestines and the plucks has been
pulled out of the carcass and before the connection of the plucks with, for instance, the head,
has been broken. The diaphragm and leaf fat are removed from the carcass along with the
organs.

Abstract: An SRAM comprises a memory cell array composed of a number
of SRAM cells arranged in the form of a matrix, and a memory reading
circuit including a sense amplifier for differentially amplifying a potential
difference between a pair of complementary bit lines, for reading data
from the memory cell array. The memory reading circuit includes a
delay circuit for making the timing of a signal for deactivating a word
line activating the SRAM cells on the same line and the timing of a signal
for enabling the sense amplifier, consistent with each other. The delay
circuit includes a number of cascade-connected inverters, and the number
of the cascade-connected inverters can be adjusted by a focused ion beam.
Thus, the reduction of the power consumption and the elevation of the
reading speed, which are conventionally considered to be factors
incompatible with each other, can be simultaneously realized by
optimizing the number of the cascade-connected inverters in the delay
circuit.

Abstract: An automatic train control system, including a track occupancy detector is
disclosed which utilizes an image sensor disposed on the front of a locomotive
which scans an image immediately in front of the locomotive and is capable of
detecting the presence of the occupied track and any parallel tracks disposed on
either side of the occupied track. Image processing is accomplished using a
Laplacian edge detection algorithm and a Hough transform line detection
algorithm. An on-board computer determines the slope of lines corresponding to
rails extending ahead of the locomotive. The lines are grouped into lines having
positive and negative slope and the number of lines in each group is determined.
Based upon the number of lines having positive and negative slopes, a
determination of occupancy is made. The information from the track occupancy
detector is provided to other equipment located on the locomotive and used to
assist with other advanced train control functions.

Abstract: Prevention of hard water deposits by electrolytic production of calcium carbonate seed crystals on brush-like cathodes. The electrolytic production of calcium carbonate seed crystals that attract lime before it can settle out is known practice. The problem is that the crystals depositing on the cathode inactivate it. The cathode is therefore made of spring quality stainless steel in the form of bristles (22) of a round brush. Surrounding these is the anode (21). The function of fixed rods (10) in the anode/cathode gap is to break off crystals from the cathode wires as they are deformed when they pass over the rods when the cathode assembly is rotated. Alternatively a rotating rod assembly could be used with a fixed cathode. Ultrasound could also be used to dislodge crystals. The electrolysis voltage and the frequency of bending of the cathodes determine the quality of the crystals.
