Patent EP-1124203-A2 (EP)
Inventor: NOMURA KUNIO
IPC: G06F3/12
Filed: 2001-02-08
Abstract: A composited area desired in a base original
is indicated by a coordinate input device (5a) of
an image editing apparatus (3), and the base
original is read by a scanner section (10) of the
image editing apparatus (3). An extracted area
desired in the other original is indicated by the
coordinate input device (5a), and a desired
editorial process is designated by a command input
device (5b). A editing device (6) performs a
scaling operation such that the size of an image to
be extracted from the other original by the scanner
section (10) becomes identical with the size of the
composited area of the base original, thus changing
reading of the scanner section (10). The
resultantly-extracted image data is composited into
the composited area, and the composited data is
output and printed by a print device (12).

Patent EP-1167153-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SICH GARY M
IPC: B60T15/02
Filed: 2001-05-08
Abstract: A vent valve insert comprises a bushing assembly, a piston
assembly and a spring. It is designed to fit snugly and sealingly
within a suitable borehole, such as the vent borehole of an ECP
manifold assembly. The bushing assembly defines a longitudinal
bore within which the piston assembly is situated. When pilot
pressure is applied to its top surface, the piston assembly is
forced to an open position wherein fluid is allowed to flow
through the vent valve insert. Absent pilot pressure acting
against the top surface, the spring acts to force the piston
assembly upward within the longitudinal bore. Secured to the
bottom portion of the piston assembly, an annular sealing member
is carried upward so that its flat surface seats against a raised
inner portion of an annular valve seat. The vent valve insert is
thus normally biased to the closed position. The vent valve
insert also features a mechanism for preventing non-longitudinal
movement of the piston assembly as it is moved longitudinally
within the longitudinal bore. The mechanism not only guides the
movement of the piston assembly within the bushing assembly but
also prevents the bell clapper effect inherent to the vent valve
inserts currently used in the industry.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance apparatus includes a multi-mode receiver assembly which facilitates
operation in both a quadrature combination mode and phased array mode. The multi-mode
receiver assembly includes a receiver coil assembly  (30)  comprising a first RF coil
assembly  (32)  and a second RF coil assembly  (34) . A signal combining circuit, which
includes a switch means, performs at least one of combining and splitting magnetic
resonance signals received by the first and second RF coil assemblies  (30, 32) . The
application of a DC bias potential to the switch means switches the multi-mode receiver
assembly into the quadrature combination mode in which the received magnetic resonance
signals are phase shifted and combined into a quadrature signal and an anti-quadrature
signal. The absence of a DC bias potential to the switch means switches the multi-mode
receiver assembly into the phased array mode in which the received magnetic resonance
signals are phase shifted and passed individually to corresponding receivers. The multi-mode
capability of the receiver assembly allows an operator to switch from a quadrature
mode, which is provides faster reconstruction, to a phased array mode, which provides
better image quality, within a single examination.
