Patent EP-0171735-A3 (EP)
Title: Aseptic food processing apparatus and method
IPC: B65B55/14
Filed: 1985-08-06
Abstract: A greatly improved aseptic processing apparatus and method for pumpable foods is provided which gives accurate, uniform aseptic cooking conditions (e.g., time, temperature and pressure) while at the same time preserving the integrity of particulates in the food product. In preferred forms, the apparatus includes a reciprocating piston food pump which generates a continuous product stream at a substantially constant nominal pressure. This stream is fed to a heat exchanger in order to elevate the temperature of the product, whereupon the stream passes through a holding tube to complete the aseptic cooking process. A metering device such as a rotary pump is located downstream of the holding tube for creating a substantially constant flow rate of product from the apparatus. Use of the downstream metering device in conjunction with an upstream constant pressure pump permits attainment of even, relatively high system pressures which in turn facilitates accurate temperature control and eliminates localized internal steam flashing which can deleteriously affect product quality. By virtue of the present apparatus and method, aseptic processing of low acid heterogeneous food products such as stews and chilies can be safely accomplished on a commercial scale.

Abstract: A thermally developed photographic copier is provided 
having two controls, one for adjusting the contrast, or 
blackness, of an image, and another for adjusting back­
ground contrast. A microprocessor samples and processes 
the settings of these controls to produce a video pedestal 
determined by the background contrast control, and a gain 
control signal adjusted for effects of the background contrast 
setting to keep amplified video signas within the dynamic 
range necessary for the image contrast setting. Video signals 
used to expose light-sensitive paper or film are amplified in 
accordance with the gain control signal and combined with 
the video pedestal for desired background contrast. The 
system can automatically modify the gain and video pedestal 
levels for different lots of paper or film by recording a 
calibrated grey scale, scanning the recorded grey scale 
image, comparing the scanned image with previously stored 
information on the desired image, and modifying the gain 
and pedestal values as necessary to reproduce images of the 
desired appearance.

Abstract: A gas laser apparatus which has a positive electrode and 
a negative electrode disposed along a gas flow direction, and 
a pair of resonance reflectors disposed in a direction that 
perpendicularly intersects the gas flow direction. The negative 
electrodes include an appropriate number of unit electrodes 
connected to a power source. The unit electrodes include a 
plurality of needle electrodes aligned in the gas flow direction, 
the respective needle electrodes of which are covered with 
insulators leaving pointed ends thereof uncovered, and the 
pointed ends are interconnected by conductive thin wires. The 
insulators prevent the glow discharge area of the respective 
needle electrodes from being increased. In addition, the con­
ductive thin wires serve to cause adjacent needle electrodes to 
commence glow discharge, whereby stabilization of glow 
discharge can be achieved. The gas flow velocity may be 
decreased at the centre of the gas flow path to render the flow 
velocity more uniform across the gas flow path. For example, 
a rod structure may extend across the centre of the flow path 
or the needle electrodes at the centre of the flow path may be 
thicker than electrodes away from the flow path.

Filed: 1987-07-09
Abstract: In an optical isolator device using a Faraday 
rotator for permitting a forward light beam to pass 
therethrough but for preventing a reverse light beam 
from passing therethrough, two Faraday rotators (23, 24) are used 
in a cascade-connection in order to improve the 
temperature characteristic of the isolation over a wide 
temperature range. One of two Faraday rotators is 
prepared to have the Faraday rotation angle of 45° for a 
wavelength shorter than the intended wavelength λ₀, 
while the other having the Faraday rotation angle of 45° 
for a wavelength longer than λ₀. A polarizer (29) and an 
analyzer (28) are disposed on opposite ends of one of the 
rotators at a rear stage and prevent the reverse light 
beam from passing therethrough. Another polarizer (25) and 
another analyzer (26) can further be disposed at opposite 
ends of the other front stage rotator so that two 
isolators are arranged in a cascade-connection. The 
rotation angular deviation of the light beam caused at 
the front stage rotator by the temperature variation is 
cancelled by the rotation angular deviation caused at 
the rear stage rotator by the same temperature 
variation.

Title: Method of preventing undesirable gas generation between electrodes of an electroco-agulation printing system
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1987-07-14
Abstract: The invention is concerned with a method of preventing undesirable gas generation between a pair of opposite, electrically energized negative and positive electrodes spaced from one another by a gap filled with an aqueous electrolyte solution. According to the invention, the positive electrode is coated with an olefinic substance to form micro-droplets thereof on the surface of the positive electrode prior to electrically energizing the electrodes such that upon electrical energization gas generated as a result of electrolysis is consumed by reaction with the olefinic substance, the reaction being carried out in the presence of a metallic oxide catalyst. In this manner, undesirable gas generation between the electrodes is prevented. The method of the invention is particularly useful in electrocoagulation printing systems where an image is reproduced by electrocoagulation of an electrolytically coagulable colloid on a positive electrode to form dots of coagulated colloid representative of a desired image, the invention enabling the electrical resistance which is created at the interface of the negative electrode by the accumulation of hydrogen and causes an erratic formation of the dots of coagulated colloid to be suppressed.

Abstract: A flat woven high speed electrical transmission cable (10) is 
terminated by an insulation displaceable connector (24). A plurality 
of signal conductors (12) are disposed generally side by side in the 
cable extending longitudinally in the warp direction. Warp elements 
(A, 14) and weft elements (16) are interwoven with the signal 
conductors (12) to bind the signal conductors in a prescribed weave 
pattern. The warp elements are polymeric mono warp strands (A) each 
of which includes a central reinforcing core of reinforcing fibres. A 
soft pliable polymeric material encapsulates the reinforcing fibres. 
The polymeric mono strands have a well defined diametric dimension 
accurately to fix the lateral spacing of the signal conductors (12) in 
the cable (10). The polymeric material of the polymeric warp strands 
(A) readily yields to connector prongs (30) of the insulation 
displaceable type connector (24) so that the connector prongs may be 
inserted into the cable without bending or damage to the prongs (30). 
Reliable displacement of insulation (13 a ) of the signal conductors 
(12) may be obtained to permit electrical contact between the prongs 
(30) and conductor wires (13 b ) of the signal conductors.

Abstract: In the system for deriving radiation images, view independent 
radiation calculations are precomputed so that they do not need 
to be repeated for every view of the same environment. To find the 
form factors for radiosity techniques, a hemi-cube is constructed 
around the surface with grid cells defined for all faces on the 
hemi-cube. All other surfaces in the environment are projected 
onto the hemi-cube to facilitate the form factor calculations. 
A novel ray-tracing technique is disclosed where a light buffer 
(204) in the form of a cube is constructed around each radiation 
source (202) and grid cells (208) are defined on the faces (206) 
of the cube. Surfaces in the environment are projected onto the 
cube and the depths from the source are stored for each grid cell 
to facilitate shadow testing. Light reflected off of the viewed 
surface from another surface may be modeled by determining mirror 
positions of the viewer and the image plane. Instead of storing 
the depths of surfaces from the viewer or the radiation source, 
the identity of the polygons in the environment are stored 
instead to speed up the calculations. Scan conversion hardware 
is used to accelerate each of these operations. In a graphics 
pipeline, a feedback path is provided from the image processor 
to the CPU memory to store the result of the form factor or 
light buffer pre-computations to speed up the radiosity and ray 
tracing calculations by several orders of magnitude.
