Title: A system for distributing and controlling color reproduction at multiple sites
Inventor: HOLUB RICHARD A
IPC: B41F33/00
Filed: 1997-02-25
Abstract: The system provides for controlling color reproduction of input color image data representing one or more pages or page constituents in a network (11) having nodes (or sites) (102, 104). Each one of the nodes comprises at least one rendering device. The system distributes the input color image data from one of the nodes to other nodes, and provides a data structure (virtual proof) in the network. This data structure has components shared by the nodes and other components present only at each node.  Next, the system has means for providing color calibration data at each node characterizing output colors (colorants) of the rendering device of the node, and means for producing at each node, responsive to the color calibration data of the rendering device of the node, information for transforming the input color image data into output color image data at the rendering device of the node.

Inventor: FREEMAN CHARLES JOHN
IPC: B05D3/02
Filed: 2005-07-07
Abstract: A system for controlling the residual moisture in pre-cured binder coated glass fibers. The moisture of the binder coated glass fibers is measured after the process water is extracted in a collection box. Based on the level of moisture found in the coated glass fibers, adjustments are made to the process upstream of the moisture measurements. The adjustments include, but are not limited to, adjusting the amount of water used to make the binder composition;  adjusting the amount of heat applied to the binder composition as it is applied to the glass fibers and adjusting the vacuum conditions used to extract the process water from the binder coated glass fibers. Control of the residual moisture in the precured binder coated glass fibers helps ensure proper curing of the binder during the subsequent curing step.

Title: Airflow control mechanism
Inventor: PEARS BARRY
IPC: F16L55/07
Filed: 2007-02-19
Abstract: The present invention provides an airflow control mechanism comprising a conduit for air having an inlet located at a first end thereof and an outlet located at a second end thereof; a first opening formed in a side of said conduit and able to provide a secondary inlet thereto; a movable collar at least partially surrounding said conduit at a location alignable with said first opening, such that said collar is able to at least partially occlude said first opening; further comprising a second opening beside the first opening as part of the secondary inlet, wherein the collar is also alignable with the second opening, such that the collar is able to at least partially occlude the second opening at the same time as the first opening. Thus with this airflow control mechanism, a user may select whether to occlude both the first and the second openings, in which case air will pass directly from the inlet to the outlet without any air also entering through the secondary inlet, or to occlude neither the first and second openings, in which case air entering the secondary inlet will contribute to the total amount of air exiting the outlet, or to occlude just one of the first and second openings, in which case, a fixed amount of air which is less than the secondary inlet being fully open, but more than the secondary inlet being fully closed, will enter through the secondary inlet and contribute to the total amount of air exiting the outlet. Thus the user will be provided with a highly predictable and repeatable setting for the airflow control mechanism between the fully open and fully closed positions of the secondary inlet.
