Patent EP-0930741-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SORIN WAYNE V
IPC: G02B26/00
Filed: 1998-10-02
Abstract: An optical system such as an add and/or drop WDM multiplexer
allows the wavelength fluctuation of an optical carrier to be tracked so that a
corresponding fiber Bragg grating (FBG) can be responsively tuned. The
preferred embodiment of the wavelength tracking system in an optical system
such as an add and/or drop module includes a three-port optical circulator (22),
three optical fibers (12, 26, 28), a series of tunable FBGs (30, 32, 34, 36, 38
and 40), a source of a broadband optical noise signal (48), an optical spectrum
analyzer (OSA) (50), and an FBG tuner (44). In operation, an LED generates
modulated probe lightwaves that are inserted into a drop module (20). The
LED lightwaves and the optical carriers propagating through the drop module
are monitored by an OSA. The monitoring procedure determines the conditions,
in terms of target wavelengths of the FBGs, and the stability or instability
of the optical carriers. The FBGs are then tuned in response to the FBG and
optical carrier information. In another embodiment, the wavelength of an
optical carrier is tracked using a modulated tracking grating (94) and an FBG
(102) is adjusted in response to the tracking information.

Abstract: A developer replenishing device for replenishing a
developing device with a developer, and a developer container
for use therewith. The developer container, or toner bottle,
has a mouth portion at one end thereof which is smaller in
diameter than a hollow cylindrical main body. At the end of
the bottle provided with the mouth, a shoulder has the inner
periphery thereof partly raised to the edge of the mouth
portion to form a raised portion for scooping up a toner. In
addition, a part of the inner periphery of the circumferential
wall of the bottle which is contiguous with the raised portion
is also raised toward the axis of the bottle about which the
bottle is rotatable, thereby forming another raised portion.
When the bottle is mounted to a bottle holder, which is
included in the replenishing device, substantially horizontally
with the mouth portion oriented sideways, the bottle is
rotated to raise the toner from the bottom of the main body to
the mouth portion. As a result, the toner is discharged to the
outside via the mouth portion smoothly.

Abstract: Imaging apparatus and method adapted to control ink droplet
volume and void formation. The apparatus (10) includes an ink jet print head (45)
having a nozzle (110) for ejecting an ink droplet (150) therefrom. A heater
element (130) is in heat transfer communication with the ink droplet for variably
supplying heat energy to the ink droplet, so that the volume of the ink droplet is
controlled as the heat energy is variably supplied to the ink droplet. A controller
(40) is connected to the heater element for variably controlling the heat energy
supplied to the ink droplet. The controller variably controls the heat energy by
variably controlling a plurality of voltage pulses sequentially supplied to the heater
element. Moreover, in order to reduce the potential for void formation in the ink
droplet, the pulses are spaced-apart by a predetermined delay interval. Suitable
control of ink droplet volume and delay interval between pulses results in uniform
print density and "gray-scaling" of each dot or pixel in the output image and also
precludes void formation.

Abstract: A method and system of recognizing handwritten words
in scanned documents, wherein by processing a document
containing handwriting, features for word localization are
extracted from handwritten words contained in said document
through basis points taken from a single curve of text
lines. The method is independent of page orientation, and
does not assume that the individual lines of handwritten
text are parallel, and the method does not require that
word regions be aligned with text line orientation wherein
intra-word statistics are derived from sample pages rather
than using a fixed threshold. The method has applications
in digital libraries, handwriting tokenization, document
management and OCR systems.

Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement comprising: input terminals (T1, T2) for deriving a supply current from a supply source, means (I) for generating a control signal S, means (II) provided with a converter which is fitted with at least one switching element (13) and with control means (17) which trigger said switching element with high frequency in a manner which is dependent on the value of the control signal S, means (III) for generating a voltage Sc which is a measure for an instantaneous value of a supply voltage delivered by the supply source. The voltage Sc acts as a reference signal which causes the means (I) to generate a control signal S which lies alternately in a first range and in a second range. The means (II) cause the drawing of a comparatively strong supply current (Iv1) at a value of the control signal S which lies in the first range and the drawing of a comparatively weak supply current (Iv2) at a value of the control signal S which lies in the second range, output terminals (T3, T4) coupled to the means (II) for connection to a light source (LI).

Abstract: An NDIR spectrometer based on the use of wavelength specific lamp sources, whose emission spectrum consists of discrete, narrow lines characteristic of the isotope present in the lamp, and which it is desired to measure with the spectrometer. This allows very high intrinsic sensitivity, enabling the use of an extremely compact absorption cell with a very short path length. In addition, the source can be self-modulated, such that problems associated with external choppers are avoided. Furthermore, there is insignificant cross sensitivity between the isotopes themselves and between the isotopes and other ambient gases in the operating environment.

Abstract: A cutting insert comprises an upper chip surface (16), a
bottom surface (17) and side faces (18, 19) therebetween.
At each of the end faces the cutting insert has axially
protruding portions (22, 23), each of which appears with a
bevel face (26, 27). Main cutting edges are provided in the
intersection between the chip surface (16) and the side
surfaces (18, 19). On each side surface is provided a
clearance surface (30) formed on a protruding portion (31)
which via a step clearance extends into a secondary
helically twisted clearance surface, the chip angle of
which increases with increasing cutting depth. With the
cutting insert regarded in plan view the bevel face is
oriented in straight angle towards the main cutting edge
(24, 25). Thanks to this embodiment is achieved constant
functional edge angle along a wave-shaped edge line, which
combined with step clearance and large positive axial angle
(α) enables improved precision when machining a 90-degree
shoulder in a work piece, which contributes to a more even
wear along the main cutting edge and increased life-time of
the cutting insert.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a prepreg (22) in which a
reinforcing substrate (1) is impregnated with a thermosetting
matrix resin. In the method, the reinforcing substrate is
moved in a traveling direction (TD). The thermosetting matrix
resin is supplied to an outer circumferential surface of a
transferring roller (2). The thermosetting matrix resin which
substantially contains no solvent and which is in a molten
state is transferred from the outer circumferential surface of
the transferring roller (2) to a first surface (1a) of a reinforcing
substrate (1) while the reinforcing substrate moves. The
thermosetting matrix resin which is transferred to the first
surface (1a) is forced to permeate through the reinforcing
substrate (1) by pressing at least one pressing roller (3) on the
thermosetting matrix resin transferred to the first surface (1a)
while the reinforcing substrate (1) moves. The reinforcing
substrate (1) impregnated with the thermosetting matrix resin is
heated to semi-cure the thermosetting matrix resin.
