Title: Method for realization of a personal computer page printer by means of a faksimile device
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 1992-06-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for using the printer unit of a telefax device as a page printer for a PC. It is the object to make this printer unit usable for different PCs and to achieve high printing quality and printing speed. This is achieved by providing a control unit which detects a print requirement and switches the telefax device from facsimile operation to printing operation and vice versa, the information data being transmitted as hexadecimal characters. The data representing the information are supplied as hexadecimal values from the PC to the buffer memories PSp1 and PSp2 and to the page memory SSp. Control signals for actual character shapes, which correspond to the hexadecimal values and take over control of the printing printer section (thermal comb), are stored in the register R of the printer unit. As a result, the character is printed out not in pixel form but in high quality as an actual character in original form. The user can set a character interval after which the control unit STE automatically switches from printing mode to facsimile mode. When copies are made, this switching is automatically extended to begin with the end of the last copy. <IMAGE>
Patent EP-0535746-A3 (EP)
Title: Motion vector estimation, motion picture encoding and storage
IPC: H04N7/00
Filed: 1992-09-29
Abstract: In the encoding of a frame (P3) in a digitised motion picture sequence, the frame is divided into blocks (A) of pixels and a motion vector (VA) found to predicts the contents of each block A from a block (A') in a previous frame (IO). Rather than evaluate many thousands of candidate vectors to find the best motion vector (VA), relatively few candidate vectors are evaluated, based on starting vector which is the estimated motion vector for a neighbouring block (LB(A)) in the same frame. To allow parallel processing of several pixel blocks, all the blocks of one row in the current frame are assigned to one processor (DSP), and a starting vector is obtained from a block (LB(A)) previously processed by the same processor. Further starting vectors are obtained if desired from neighbouring blocks (UR(B),DR(B)) in neighbouring frames of the sequence. The candidate vectors based on a starting vector may be very few in number, or may fill an area a few percent of the full search area. The method may favour candidate vectors which are more economical to encode. <IMAGE>

Title: Spectional pulp-feeding for the headbox of a papermaking machine
Inventor: MEINECKE ALBRECHT DR
IPC: D21F1/02
Filed: 1995-06-10
Abstract: Stock is supplied to the breast box of a paper machine by a number of distributor feeds across the width of the machine. In at least one of the feeds (main stream) there is a restrictor followed by a feed (side stream) of liquid (e.g. stock suspension, dilution water or water) at an angle. The angle is chosen so that a small change in the rate of flow of the side stream results in a large corresponding or opposing change in the total flow (main stream plus side stream). <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0729287-A3 (EP)
Inventor: ODA MIKIO
IPC: H04S1/00
Filed: 1996-02-14
Abstract: A low frequency audio conversion circuit for converting the
frequency of low frequency audio components. An input audio signal includes a
low frequency audio component lower than the frequency a speaker can reproduce.
The low frequency audio component is filtered and extracted by a low pass filter
and full-wave rectified to generate even-numbered harmonics of the low frequency
audio component. Secondary harmonics are extracted from the even-numbered
harmonics and added to the input audio signal after being amplified to an
appropriate level. When a speaker whose low frequency sound reproduction
characteristics are poor is used, and a low frequency component lower than the
frequency the speaker can reproduce is supplied, the low frequency audio
component is reproduced as secondary harmonics which fall within the frequency
range of the speaker. Thus, the low frequency audio component is compensated,
and a powerful sound is reproduced at a low cost without degrading the sound.

Abstract: First and second images (S1, S2) are separated into
luminance and chrominance components to generate a first
signal (Y5), in which the luminance components of the
two images are sequentially located in the 1H period and
a second signal (C5) in which the chrominance components
of the two images are located in the same. The second
signal is delayed by (1/2)H period. The first signal
and the delayed second signal are used to generate
a third signal (S10) in which the luminance and
chrominance components of the first image are sequentially
located in the 1H period and a fourth signal
(S12) in which the luminance and chrominance components
of the second image are located in the same. The third
and fourth signals are vertically expanded with
arbitrary expansion ratios. Then, the expanded signals
are synthesized to generate a fifth signal (S14) in
which the luminance components of the first and second
images are sequentially located in the 1H period and a
sixth signal (S15) in which the chrominance components
of the first and second images are located in the same.
The fifth signal is delayed by (1/2)H period. The sixth
signal and the delayed fifth signal are interpolated to
make uniform the intervals among the scanning lines.

Abstract: A coating method and coating apparatus capable of providing a coated film (7)
of improved surface properties free from any streak and color shading and facilitating
coating on a sheet material (1) of an increased width without causing enlargement of the
apparatus and thus complicating its structure. A swirling motion imparting mechanism
(33) and an orifice (39) are arranged at a connection between a liquid feed pipe (20) and
a coater (10). Swirling motion is imparted to coating liquid discharged from a pump (23)
and then a flow velocity of the coating liquid is immediately increased to a level as high as
200 cm/s or more, the liquid then being fed into a pocket (12) of the coater (10) within 0.1
second or less. This permits shearing to act on the coating liquid, to thereby effectively
prevent a variation in viscosity of the coating liquid and flocculation thereof, so that the
coated film (7) may be improved in surface properties.
