Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/02577 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 28, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 28, 1995 PCT Filed Sep. 23, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/07422 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 14, 1994In order to render possible the ablation to different depths in a process for correcting the shape of a lens in which the surface of the lens is acted upon by the radiation of a pulsed radiation source through a shutter in specific regions exposed by the shutter and thereby removing material from the lens by the radiation effect during the impingement of each radiation pulse, wherein the radiation is concentrated in a bundle of rays, the cross section of which is smaller when striking the lens surface than that of the lens surface exposed by the shutter, and wherein the bundle of rays is moved such that the entire lens surface exposed by the shutter is irradiated by radiation pulses consecutively impinging on the lens surface, it is suggested that the bundle of rays is moved between successive radiation pulses only to such an extent that the regions of the lens surface struck by the radiation pulses consecutively impinging on the lens surface partially overlap. A device is also suggested for performing this process.

Abstract: The invention is a positive charge director (15) for liquid electrographic toners. The charge director (15) comprises a very strongly cheating functional group (13) covalently bonded in the resin coating or pigment component, or an intrinsic part of the pigment component, of the toner particle (11), and a very weakly associated, preferably ionic, molecule (14) dispersed in the liquid phase (17) to achieve charge separation. The strong chelation site (13) on the resin is prepared, via well-known polymer chemistry. For the ionic molecule (14), preferred cations are those with no regulatory, health or environmental issues, such as K +, Na +, Ca²⁺, Al³⁺, Zn²⁺, Zr⁴⁺, Mg²⁺, ammonium (NH₄+), and organic cations. 
     The chelate-containing resin is brought into dispersion with the liquid phase (17) containing the ionic molecule (14). When this is done, the equilibria that compete for the cation are such that it is released from the ionic molecule (14) and bound in the chelate (13). The toner particle (15) is left with a net positive charge which is permanent, but which is balanced by an equal, opposite charge on the counter anionic species (16) in the continuous phase (17). Preferably, there are no other sources of charge in the dispersion, and there is no excess of charge carriers in the continuous phase which would interfere with development.

Abstract: The cartridge base (1) of the invention is of the type that is included in the body of a monoblock faucet, whose operating lever is tiltable upward and downward to open and close, and rotary to achieve the outflow of hot or cold water. The type of faucet to which the cartridge base of the invention is included, has the particularity that the position of the operating lever for the outflow of cold water, corresponds to the alignment in the vertical plane of the lever with regard to the pipe of the faucet. The cartridge base (1) is, also, of the type having inclined holes (8-8') to communicate the body of the faucet with the pipe, so that in accordance with the position of the lever the water will flow through one hole or the other which will correspond to hot water or to cold water. 
     Now then, the novelty of the invention lies in the cited holes (8-8') which have a change of path between the input end thereof (8) and the output end (8'). The input end (8) may have any shape, while the output end is elongated and arched. 
     Said holes (8-8') can be attained in a molding process to obtain the base itself (1), by simply placing a pair of punches or elements suitably in the mold which will define the sections (11) and (13) concurrent in the middle section (12) or change of path of the respective hole (8-8'.)

Abstract: A process for enhancing a frame of an image sequence, the process comprising dividing the frame into a number of blocks and matching the blocks with corresponding blocks in the directly preceding and directly succeeding frames of the sequence to compensate for object motion between frames. Damaged pixels are identified by comparing their actual intensity values with intensity values predicted by an autoregressive process conducted on the motion compensated data. Once identified, the intensity values of the damaged pixels are replaced by values interpolated by a further autoregressive process modified to ignore the effects of damaged pixels.

Abstract: An acceleration sensor is disclosed which includes a capacitance-type acceleration detection element (102) mounted on a ceramic base plate (109). The element comprises a movable electrode (202) mounted between a pair of fixed electrodes (201, 209). Acceleration of the sensor in a measurement direction causes the movable electrode to move relative to the fixed electrodes and the element has opposite ends in a direction perpendicular to the measurement direction (A). The acceleration detection element is mounted on the base at a first one of the opposite ends. 
     Accordingly, the mounting surface of the acceleration sensor is parallel to the direction of acceleration to be detected. Thus the acceleration sensor can be surface-mounted on a printed board, and more be easily mounted in an automobile air bag control system or the like.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un moyen économique servant à amplifier la sensibilité de mesure d'instruments à infrarouge proche LED/IRED (diode électroluminescente/infrarouge) utilisant un moyen de modification de courant (27) servant à modifier le courant d'attaque alimentant chaque IRED (5) en fonction de l'opacité de l'échantillon mesuré. Le moyen de modification de courant fait partie du moyen de traitement et comprend des moyens servant à mesurer un niveau de signal (8) pour chaque IRED au niveau d'un convertisseur analogique/numérique (10). Sur la base du niveau du signal détecté pour chaque IRED, le moyen de modification de courant modifie le courant alimentant chaque IRED selon une valeur aussi élevée que possible sans saturer le convertisseur analogique/numérique. De ce fait, en modifiant le courant d'attaque de chaque IRED à ladite valeur maximum, l'instrument analytique décrit par l'invention permet d'obtenir une résolution élevée sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'utiliser un circuit électronique coûteux. L'invention concerne également un système servant à générer et à mémoriser la signature optique d'un utilisateur, ce qui améliore encore la précision des mesures prises par l'instrument.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for analog to digital conversion using sigma-delta modulation of the temporal spacing between digital samples. The method and apparatus of the present invention provides for sigma-delta modulation of the time base such that errors produced by nonuniform sampling are frequency-shaped to a region (i.e., shifted to higher frequencies) where they can be removed by conventional filtering techniques. In one embodiment, digital data is interpolated under control of a sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal that represents, on average, the data rate of the digital data to be output by the converter and then decimated by a fixed ratio. In another embodiment, the digital data is interpolated by a fixed ratio and then decimated under control of a sigma-delta modulated frequency selection signal that represents, on average, the data rate of the digital data to be output by the converter. The frequency selection signal is modulated using an n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator. Data thus emerges from the interpolation/decimation process at the sample rate selected by the n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator. The method and apparatus converts the data rate of an incoming digital data stream from an ADC to the data rate determined by the n-th order m-bit sigma-delta modulator.
