Patent EP-0641753-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SAYAMA TAKASHI
IPC: C05F17/02
Filed: 1994-03-04
Abstract: There is provided an apparatus for fast fermentation treatment in which temperature of organic industrial waste is rapidly increased to effect fast fermentation to allow a low running cost to be achieved. Hot water is circulated inside a rotary shaft (3) of a main body (1), while a sheath heater (21) is provided on an exterior surface of the main body (1). Organic industrial waste and ferment bacilli are put from an inlet into the main body (1) to increase temperature of the organic industrial waste up to 60°C within one hour by means of the hot water inside the rotary shaft (3) and the sheath heater (21). Subsequently, the sheath heater (21) may be operated intermittently or stopped because natural fermentation heat is generated from the organic industrial waste.

Abstract: In a radio communication system, in particular a mobile communication system, variable-rate information flows originating from different sources (CV1, CS1; CV2, CS2) and relative to a same communication are transmitted on a same radio channel. Each mobile station (M1...Mh) and the fixed part (B1...Bn; RNC) of the system comprise a unit for the control of the variable-rate transmission, which dynamically allocates the available bits to the different streams by taking into account the needs of the sources (CV1, CS1; CV2, CS2), the conditions of the channel (6) and the system occupancy.

Abstract: A photographic printing apparatus (1) includes a reading device (RD) for reading image information from a film (2), and an exposure condition computing device for computing exposure conditions for exposing a photosensitive material based on the image information read by the reading device. The apparatus further includes an image information converter (103) for converting the image information read by the reading device into image information expected to appear on the photosensitive material when the photosensitive material is exposed to the image information on the film under the exposure conditions computed by the exposure condition computing device (102). The image information converted by the image information converter is displayed on a monitor (MT). The exposure condition computing device (102) receives instructions through a control panel (o) to correct the exposure conditions for the image information displayed on the monitor, or instructions not to correct the exposure conditions. An exposure device exposes the photosensitive material under exposure condition computed by the exposure condition computing device based on correcting instructions inputted through the control panel. The exposure device is operable in parallel with an input from the control panel to the exposure condition computing device, to exposure the photosensitive material to image information for which the exposure conditions have been corrected based on the correcting instructions from the control panel or for which non-correction instructions have been received.

Abstract: The method determines interference signals in the frequency modulated received signal of a radio receiver such as a car radio by analysing the varying voltage component in the field strength signal. The varying voltage component undergoes one or more of the following steps. Does it include a frequency identical to the pilot tone frequency How frequent is the pilot tone frequency present How frequent are different frequencies present The test results provide an individual signal for the presence of a multi-path interference, a same channel or adjacent channel interference or no interference. The apparatus includes two narrow band filters whose inputs are connected to the field strength signal output of the intermediate frequency stage of the radio receiver. One filter has an average frequency of 19 kHz and the other has a different frequency. A rectifier (GI) is connected to the filters and its outputs are connected to the input of a comparator (Comp).

Abstract: Small, closely spaced deposits of solder materials may be formed with high volumetric accuracy and uniformity of shape by depositing a layer of conductive material (20) over surfaces of a dielectric layer (16) having apertures or recesses (e.g. blind apertures) and conductors and/or pads (14) exposed by those apertures or recesses, masking regions of the conductive material with a further patterned dielectric layer (30), electroplating solder materials (40) onto regions of the conductive material exposed by the mask, removing the mask (30) and portions of the conductive material (20) by selective etching and reflowing solder (40) away from at least a portion of the surfaces of the apertured dielectric layer (16). Uniformity of electroplating within blind apertures is enhanced by a combination of fluid jet sparging and cathode agitation. Excess conductor material in the resulting solder deposit can be avoided by replacing conductor material (20) with a constituent component of a solder material in an immersion bath prior to electroplating.

Abstract: The process treats hydrocarbon-containing solvents, pref. de-preservation agents covered by EP495348, mixed with wash water, for use in de-preservation of new vehicles, which were originally surface-protected by a preservation agent (wax). The mixt. results from high pressure steam jetting (15) or e.g. automatic hot washer systems. The original process uses a light oil separator (2), to remove solvent, the remaining water and wax mixture passing to a reaction vessel (6). Here, paraffin wax and residual hydrocarbons are flocculated as a sludge, separated by filtration. The resulting clean water is recycled for use in the wax removal washing plant.

Abstract: A system and method provides for variable target outputs from a compiler with only a single execution. The compiler includes a front end, a generic back end, and plurality of individual back ends that are dynamically loaded by the compiler during execution. The front end produces an abstract syntax tree which is then processed by the generic back end and the individual back ends to produce a number of back end trees, each adapted for a specific back end, and representative of the desired structure of the various target outputs, including target code files, or events. The generic back end traverses the abstract syntax tree, and on each node of the tree, invokes each back end that has a node of its back end tree attached thereto. The back end can then modify its own back end tree, and attach further back end nodes to other nodes of the abstract syntax tree. In turn the generic back end will invoke such added attached nodes, until all attached back end nodes on all the nodes of the abstract syntax tree have been processed. This results in completed back end trees for all of the back ends, requiring only a single pass of the front end to produce the abstract syntax tree. The individual back ends then process their respective back end trees to produce their target outputs. A look up operation is provided in the generic back end that returns one or more back end nodes in response to a request therefore specifying a node of the abstract syntax tree, and a family identification value of a back end node.

Abstract: A color-filter manufacturing method which manufactures a color filter where occurrence of color mixture and colorless portion(s) are prevented while improving ink-arrival precision in applying ink onto a substrate. The method manufactures a color filter by discharging ink from an ink-jet head IJH on a substrate 53 so as to color respective pixels with a plurality of discharge ink. When ink I2 discharged from the ink-jet head IJH is applied not in the form of ink droplet but in the form of pillar onto the substrate 53, the ink I2 is applied at a position within a pixel, where the ink I2 is to mix with previously-applied ink I1.
