Title: System and method for increased sheet timing operation window for registration
Inventor: WINTERBERGER JOHN A
IPC: B65H9/10
Filed: 2001-10-12
Granted: 2005-02-01
Abstract: An apparatus and method for moving a receiver into a registered relationship with a moving image-bearing member in a registration mechanism. The apparatus and method account for receivers that arrive at the registration mechanism outside a normal operating time window. When a receiver arrives too late, the receiver is accelerated to a speed greater than that of the moving image-bearing member for a period of time sufficient to account for the arrival delay. The receiver is then decelerated to a speed substantially equal to that of the image-bearing member. When a receiver arrives too early, the receiver is brought to a stop for a period of time sufficient to account for the early arrival. The receiver is then accelerated to the image-bearing member speed.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un remultiplexeur statistique efficace permettant de traiter plusieurs canaux comprenant des données vidéo. Dans un aspect de cette invention le transcodage de données vidéo est retardé alors que les informations statistiques sont obtenues à partir des données. Les paramètres de besoin en débit binaire des données sont déterminés sur la base des informations statistiques, puis les données vidéo sont transcodées (110, 112, 200, 300) en fonction de leurs paramètres de besoin en débit binaire respectifs suivant le retard. Dans un autre aspect de cette invention, un débit binaire de transcodage de trames vidéo est mis à jour plusieurs fois à des intervalles successifs de manière à permettre une surveillance plus étroite du débit binaire. Des limites minimales et maximales du débit binaire de transcodage, par exemple, du dépassement de capacité de la mémoire tampon et de la protection contre le soupassement de la capacité sont également mise à jour dans chaque intervalle. Dans un autre aspect de l'invention les échelles de quantification de pre-transcodage des macro-blocs dans une trame sont proportionnées de manière à obtenir de nouvelles échelles de quantification correspondantes permettant le transcodage fondé sur un rapport d'une quantité de pré-transcodage de données dans la trame et une cible, post-transcodant une quantité de données pour la trame. Les échelles de quantification sont ajustées pour différentes portions de la trame au fur et à mesure que le transcodage avance, de manière à garantir qu'une quantité minimale de largeur de bande de transcodage soit attribuée à chaque macro-bloc.

Filed: 2002-06-20
Granted: 2008-01-15
Abstract: The invention is a method to reduce the number of cigarettes consumed by a smoker, preferably towards the goal of eventual cessation. The method comprises collecting data that describes a smoker's cigarette consumption, using said data to generate a reduced smoking regimen, and implementing said reduced smoking regimen. By reducing the number of cigarettes consumed and equally distributing their consumption over the smoker's smoking hours, the method helps the smoker to reduce tobacco consumption and break psychologica l smoking associations. The method implemented for tobacco reduction is flexib le enough to accomodate smokers who are not compliant as it continues to reduce scheduled consumption. Likewise, the method may accomodate smokers capable o f accelerating their reduction.

Title: Method and arrangement for determination of sharpness of chopping blades
Inventor: GRIMSEL MATTHIAS
IPC: B26D7/12
Filed: 2003-07-28
Granted: 2007-06-26
Abstract: A method and arrangement for determination of the sharpness of chopping blades of a field chopper during chopping includes the steps of measuring, at least at two points in time, a characteristic parameter of the operating oscillation of a component of the chopping unit. Each such measurement obtains the oscillation fractions of at least two frequency bands of the measured signal or its peak, with the ratio between the two measurements being evaluated to generate a signal, when a certain deviation is determined between the initial measurement and the current measurement, which is indicative of the need to sharpen the chopping blades and the counterblade. The sharpening process can then be automatically initiated.
