Abstract: A bill deposit machine comprising: a deposit/return port for accepting and
returning a batch of bills, a bill transport path for transporting the batch of bills accepted at
said deposit/return port with the wide dimension of the bills parallel to the transport path
horizontally and in a straight line, a feed-out section for feeding out the bills, one at a time,

Abstract: A three-stage lean burn combustion chamber (28) comprises a
primary combustion zone (36), a secondary combustion zone
(40) and a tertiary combustion zone (44). Each of the
combustion zones (36,40,44) is supplied with premixed fuel

Abstract: A chuck (30) with a generally cylindrical body (34) has a gripping mechanism (36) that
is actuatable to a closed position in which the gripping mechanism (36) retains a tool
with respect to the body (34). An annular nut (66) has a threaded portion (68) in
threaded engagement with the gripping mechanism (36) so that rotation of the nut (66)
in a closing direction actuates the gripping mechanism (36) to a closed position and
rotation of the nut (66) in an opening direction, opposite the closing direction, actuates
the gripping mechanism (36) to an open position. One of the nut (66) and the gripping
mechanism (36) includes a rotational stop (78) which, when the gripping mechanism
(36) reaches a predetermined position while being actuated by rotation of the nut (66) in
the opening direction, abuts the other of the nut (66) and the gripping mechanism (36)
in a rotational direction with respect to the axis (52) of the body (34) to oppose further
rotation of the nut (66).

Abstract: Cells i corresponding to pixels are once initialized into a non-excitation state, to calculate coupling weights W ik  between the eight cells k adjacent to the cells i, thereby determining leader cells (self-excitable cells candidate) p i =1 based on calculation results (a). Next, one leader cell yet to be excited is selected as a self-excitable cell (b). The selected self-excitable cell is put into the excitation state by self-excitation processing (c), the excitable cells are selected by excitable cell detection processing based on the coupling weights between the adjacent cells (d), and the selected cells are put into the excitation state by excitation as dependent processing (e). These operations are repeated until no excitable cell is detected any more and, if there no excitable cell is detected any more, inhibition processing is performed (f), thereby completing image segmentation of one region. These operations are repeated until there is no non-excited and non-inhibited leader cell any more, thereby pinpointing regions belonging to the same category from an input image and identifying them as an image segmentation regions.

Abstract: There are disclosed improved liquid impermeable and liquid vapour/gas permeable fabrics (10a - 10g). Such fabrics (10a - 10g) find particular application as construction fabrics, such as in the building industry, e.g. as house-wrap or as roofing underlay or in flooring. Liquid impermeable and liquid vapour permeable materials, including laminates, are known. Known fabrics suffer from a number of problems such as condensation and infrared loading, cost and complexity of manufacture, robustness, unwanted noise and water hold-out. Accordingly, an embodiment of the invention provides a laminated breathable fabric (10d;10e;10h) having as a layer thereof a reflective film or membrane (30d;30e;30h). In one implementation the reflective film (30d;30e;30h) comprises a breathable (moisture vapour permeable and optionally air/gas permeable) metallised microperforated film. The microperforated metallised film comprises microperforations of 0.1mm to 15mm in diameter, having surface coverage of around 2% to 10%. <IMAGE>
