Patent EP-1170417-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MUELLER WOLFGANG
IPC: B01D29/01
Filed: 2001-05-18
Abstract: To repulp and clean waste paper materials (A), they are initially fed into a rotating drum (1) and mixed with water (W) to be processed mechanically until the repulped paper (A1) can be taken off into a sorting vessel (2). The sorting vessel has a sieve (3) which separates most of the impurities (R1,R2) from the pulp. To repulp and clean waste paper, the impurities (R2) which are heavier than water are taken from the sorting vessel through an outlet (6) at the base. The rotating drum breaks down the waste paper by the forces of friction and sliding as the drum rotates. The repulped paper is taken continuously from the drum to the sorting vessel, with an intermediate deinking stage so that the pulp has a maximum of 5% ink particles. The pulp passes out of the sorting vessel through a sieve at the side, fitted with a cleaner (4) to prevent sieve clogging, using cleaning blades moving across the sieve with an oval or round or foil profile. Alternatively, the cleaned pulp (A2) can pass out of the sorting vessel through a rotating sieve at the side, fitted with impelling paddles and a cleaner to prevent clogging. The rotating sieve can be straight or in a truncated cone shape. A hydraulic recirculation is generated within the sorting vessel, using a pulp part-flow (U1) as an overflow outwards, containing at least a part of the lightweight impurities (R1). An upper guide plate defines and supports the overflow zone, through a wall opening on the same side of the vessel as the sieve. The overflow outlet at the sorting vessel is at a gap from the sieve cleaner which is  NOTGREATER  500 mm. The overflow outlet is at the vessel wall at a position over the level of the pulp suspension when there is no recirculating movement. The overflow is taken off continuously from the sorting vessel, and the lightweight impurities are separated from the overflow by a sorting drum (5). An Independent claim is included for an assembly to repulp and clean waste paper materials, where the outlet for heavy impurities is a screw conveyor pitched at an upward angle from the base of the sorting vessel. Preferred Features: At least one screw spiral without a core is used in the screw conveyor, to carry the heavy impurities to a plane over the suspension level in the sorting vessel. A counter flushing at the screw conveyor goes back into the sorting vessel. The rotating pulping drum has an impermeable mantle, and has a fixed displacement body. The sieve at the sorting vessel has a mesh width with a diameter of 2-4 mm. Baling wires are removed from the paper before it is fed into the pulping drum.

Abstract: A method of forming a two colour pattern, such as a logo, text or a symbol, on a zip fastener slider. The slider is coated with a first layer 201 of acrylic spray paint of a first colour. A second layer 202 of acrylic spray paint of a different colour is then applied on top of the first layer 201. The slider is then placed under a laser head 205, and the pattern is marked out onto the top paint layer 202. The power and speed of the laser head is controlled to remove only the top paint layer 202, so that the bottom layer 201 becomes visible underneath. Since the marking is a heated process, it produces a sealed edge 208 which gives the pattern durability during washing and dry cleaning.

Abstract: A method of compressing an image is described in which digital data signals in a 2-dimensional image are formed into an image data pyramid with a number of layers and each layer is processed to give a compressed encoding in an ordered list. The encoding with the largest quality gain factor is selected first and added to a compressed representation of the data array. This is repeated for the next largest gain factor and so on until a predetermined maximum is reached. Each layer of the image data pyramid corresponds to different frequency bands, the vector quantizations of these layers will only minimally interfere with one another. This allows a simple ordering of all possible gain contributions made by the compressed encodings, to the compressed representation. This in turn allows a straightforward selection of the compressed encodings having the largest quality gain factors, for compiling the compressed representation of the image.
