Abstract: A conveyor comprises two sections (26, 28), each having a frame extending generally longitudinally, a first splined shaft (54, 56) rotatable in one end of the frame, a second shaft (68, 70) rotatable in the other end of the frame, a first wheel (42, 44) on the first shaft (54, 56) and means for rotating it. A second wheel (64, 66) is mounted on the second shaft (68, 70), and a belt (34, 36) is trained about the first (42, 44) and second wheels (64, 66), for carrying an article (20) conveyed along the conveyor. Means (58, 74) for coupling the two conveyor sections (26, 28) comprises first and second bearing rollers (58, 74), the first roller (58) having a splined center opening (60) for engaging the splines on the first shafts (54, 56) to synchronize the movements of the belts (36, 38) on the two conveyor sections (26, 28), and means (100, 88, 90) for adjusting the spacing between the conveyor sections (26, 28). A centering mechanism is also described for use with or independently of the conveyor. The mechanism comprises two centering sections (202, 204), each including a supporting frame, first and second centering columns (214, 216) rotatably mounted in the frame, and a centering arm (240) provided at an end of each centering column (214, 216), first and second drive wheels (220, 222) for driving the first and second centering columns (214, 216) respectively, and a flexible member (250) trained about them to drive them in opposite directions.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic imaging system is provided which calibrates and quantifies colors of a color power Doppler display to produce quantified measurements of Doppler power intensity. The colors of a color power Doppler image are divided into discrete colors and each color assigned a quantified measure of the Doppler power intensity indicated by that color. When a user moves a cursor over the image the system compares the color of the pixel where the cursor is located with the range of colors and their quantified measures and produces a quantified measure of the Doppler power intensity at the location of the cursor. A line of such measures across a blood vessel can be used to plot a profile of Doppler power intensity across the vessel, and an index number which is a measure of perfusion in a region of the body is determined from an area of a color power Doppler image.

Abstract: In a weft thread inserting apparatus in a rapier loom, a rapier band 4 having a first end fixed to a rapier head 23 includes a row of engaging holes 22 defined in the lengthwise direction thereof. The rapier band 4 is wound around a rapier wheel 3 in the state that the engaging holes 22 are engaged with a row of engaging projections 21 defined to the circumference of the rapier wheel 3. Presser rollers 24, 25 are rotatably disposed at positions corresponding to the positions where the rapier band 4 leaves the rapier wheel 3 and an endless belt 32 is wound aroung the rapier wheel 3, the presser rollers 24, 25 and a tension roller 31 so that the endless belt 32 does not interfere with the rapier band 4. The outside diameter of the portion of the rapier wheel 3 around which the belt 32 is wound and the outside diameters of the presser rollers 24, 25 are set such that the reciprocating speed of the rapier band 4 coincides with the circumferential speeds of the presser rollers 24, 25. With this arrangement, a wide fabric can be handled without increasing the diameter of the rapier wheel, sliding friction can be avoided between the rapier band and the presser members to thereby improve the durability of the rapier band.

Abstract: A clock sent from a clock generator is subjected to frequency division by a plurality of frequency dividers responsible for different fractions of an input frequency. A switch selects and outputs any of the outputs of the plurality of frequency dividers, and thus varies the frequency of the clock within one horizontal scanning period. The clock is used to sample a video signal, whereby an image to be displayed on a liquid-crystal panel can be compressed or stretched according to a position in the horizontal direction of a screen. Thus, it can be prevented to give a sense of incompatibility even when a video signal indicating an aspect ratio different from the aspect ratio of the screen is displayed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for using a reagent for converting a pollutant in an exhaust gas in a catalytic converter. The reagent is metered as a function of operational parameters of the exhaust gas and of a temperature of the catalytic converter. The reagent is added to the exhaust gas to form a mixture, and the mixture is fed through the catalytic converter. The temperature is determined recursively as a spatially and time-dependent function of the catalytic converter from the operational parameters of the exhaust gas and structural parameters of the catalytic converter. Catalytic activity in the catalytic converter is determined from the derived temperature and the reagent is metered as a function of the catalytic activity.

Abstract: The system is for winding up a strip of paper on a roll (9). When a roll is full, another roll spindle is spun up to speed on an arrangement (7) with a belt (7.3) stretched over two rollers (7.1,7.2). The roll core is then dropped or positively moved down onto the paper web just before it joins the nearly full roll. The paper web is then cut before it joins the full roll, but after the empty roll core. An air blast nozzle blows the paper strip towards the empty roll core, which then catches the loose end of the paper strip and proceeds to roll it up. The support for the full roll is then dropped away and the roll is then removed and the new roll then moves onto the support.
