Patent EP-0389985-A3 (EP)
Title: Object placement method and apparatus
IPC: G06Q10/08
Filed: 1990-03-23
Abstract: An object placement method and apparatus 
which obtains efficiency and optimized placement by 
providing a library of object placement patterns, each 
pattern in said library representing a plurality of 
objects filling a pattern line or series of pattern lines 
of a three-dimensional space. For each pattern line, a 
first type object (for example, a first size object) to 
be placed is selected and the pattern which minimizes the 
portion of the three-dimensional space used to place a 
number of first type objects, subject to at least one 
constraint factor, is determined. A representation of 
the objects in the rows according to the determined 
pattern may be provided. According to another aspect of 
the invention, linking restrictions between the objects 
of differing sizes may be provided. The linking 
restrictions are patterns from the library which may not 
be employed with objects of differing types in a line of 
the three-dimensional space. The linking restrictions 
may reject patterns that lead to irregular pattern 
geometries, inefficient use of space, unstable 
characteristics or any other undesirable configuration of 
the two object types in a single pattern line. The 
element placement technique of the present invention 
determines the patterns which minimize the portions of 
the three-dimensional space used to place the objects 
consistent with at least one constraint factor without 
violating the linking restrictions.

Title: Automatic white balance control circuit
IPC: H04N9/73
Filed: 1990-05-30
Abstract: In an automatic white balance control circuit for adjusting 
gain levels of a plurality of color signals included 
in a video signal composed of successive fields and 
received from a video camera while a light source provides 
illumination for the scene in the field of view of 
the camera; first, second and third integrators (8, 
11, 14; 9, 12, 15; 10, 13, 16) generate integration 
signals for each of the received color signals in each 
of first, second and third fields, respectively, a 
control signal (DGR, DGB) for each of the fields is 
generated on the basis of the respective integration 
signals, and gain levels of at least two of the color 
signals are adjusted in response to the control signal 
so as to perform white balancing for preventing variation 
in video signal brightness or flicker, such as is caused 
by a difference between the video camera exposure frequency 
and the light source power supply frequency.

Title: Polarization agility in an rf radiator module for use in a phased array
IPC: H01Q3/36
Filed: 1992-10-23
Abstract: A 90 DEG  coupling circuit (300) cascaded with a pair of hybrid mode latchable phase shifters (302, 304) provides polarization agility for an RF radiator module of the type typically used in a phased array. For example, such radiator modules typically may utilize an active microwave integrated circuit (MIC), a monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) or a passive reciprocal hybrid mode element (RHYME) circuit. These circuits are arranged to provide duplex RF transmit/receive functions with controllable phase shifts at each radiator site in a phased array. By appropriately setting the two controllable phase shifters (302, 304) to different combinations of phase shifts (e.g., 0 DEG  and/or 90 DEG ) to a dual orthogonal mode radiator, different spatial polarizations for RF radiator transmit/receive functions can be defined. The radiator itself may include a square or circular waveguide including, in some cases, a reciprocal dielectric quarter-wave plate and a non-reciprocal ferrite quarter-wave plate. If a square waveguide is utilized, then 0 DEG ,90 DEG  hybrid mode latchable phase shifters may be arranged on either side of a common ground plane with direct waveguide coupling into a septum polarizer waveguide section of the radiator element. A 90 DEG Lange hybrid coupler also may be used by itself in conjunction with an electrically rotatable ferrite quarter-wave plate radiating element to achieve a certain degree of polarization agility. <IMAGE>

Filed: 1994-11-10
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for treating at least one strip of filter material for the tobacco-processing industry, which is extracted from a stock and which is fed to a stretching stage having a stretching means which is followed by an applicator stage with an applicator means for applying application fluid, etching the filter material, onto the strip, which applicator stage, in turn, is followed by a gathering stage having a gathering means reducing the width of the strip. The purpose of the invention is to achieve a further possibility for the treatment of filter material. In the solution according to the invention, the stretching stage, the applicator stage and the gathering stage form at least approximately the shape of a U or V. The advantage attainable by means of the invention is an improvement in the tow yield along with a constant pull resistance of the filter sticks produced from the treated material. Moreover, a reduction in the dimensions of a corresponding treatment apparatus is achieved. <IMAGE>

Inventor: FROEHNER KARL-HEINZ
IPC: H01L21/82
Filed: 1995-11-03
Abstract: A fuse bank for use in the laser break-link
programming of an integrated circuit device. The fuse
bank uses fuse elements with two ends that contain
fusible regions proximate the first end and non-fusible
regions proximate the second end. The fuse elements are
aligned in alternately oriented parallel rows so that the
first end of each fuse element is juxtaposed with the
second end of any adjacent fuse element. By sequentially
alternating the orientation of the fuse elements in the
fuse bank, the fuse elements can be formed in a highly
dense matter without bringing any two fusible regions too
close to one another. Accordingly, a laser can be used
to sever selected fusible regions without adversely
effecting other fusible regions within the fuse bank. By
alternating the orientations of sequential fuse elements,
a fuse bank can be created that is twice as dense as
single orientation fuse banks with only a 30% to 50%
increase in size. The space savings on an integrated
circuit enables more circuitry per unit space and
promotes the further miniaturization of the integrated
circuit device.

Abstract: Screening of a  Parietaria  pollen-λgt22 library with
antisera to a 14-kDa pollen protein from  Parietaria  led
to the identification of several cDNA clones encoding
allergenic proteins. Nucleotide sequence analysis of
these clones indicated that, on the basis of the sequence
homologies, these clones may be classified to three
groups; group I (PJ001) comprising seven isoallergens,
group II (PJ002) comprising two isoallergens and group
III (PJ003) with three isoallergenic variants. Four of
these cDNAs were expressed in pCNAII vectors which bound
to the murine antibodies. IgE binding assay with 15-residue
peptides designed from the deduced sequences of
one of the group I proteins revealed a dominant IgE-binding
region which spanned two overlapping peptides,
peptides #27 and #28. These peptides are conserved among
all of the group I iso-allergens. Furthermore, a murine
monoclonal antibody directed to a major  Parietaria- 
allergen bound to peptide #28, suggesting that this
peptide is recognized by mouse antibodies as well. In a
splenocyte culture of mice immunized with Parietaria
allergens, peptide #28 stimulated the production
cytokines IL-2, IL-4 and IFN-γ, whereas, peptide #23
stimulated production of only cytokine IFN-γ.
Furthermore,  Parietaria -specific antibodies were found in
sera of North American subjects and these antibodies were
shown to bind the 14 kDa  Par   j  I allergen. Accordingly,
these recombinant  Parietaria  allergens are useful in both
diagnosis and therapy of allergic diseases induced by
 Parietaria  pollens.

Abstract: The interpolation of a processing path in an axial drive is stopped before an end stage specified by an axis-specific software end switch. It is determined, for each interpolation stage for each axis whether the axle can be brought to a standstill during braking with max. axial brake deceleration. If the axle cannot be stopped in time, it is not interpolated further. The axle is immediately braked with its max. axial brake deceleration and released from its interpolation. The axles which are still interpolated are then braked with the processing path-specific brake deceleration.
