Patent EP-0762747-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HIEDA TERUO
IPC: H04N5/335
Filed: 1996-09-06
Abstract: A CCD converts an optical image of an object formed on its image sensing surface into electrical charges, and sequentially outputs the electrical charges of all of the light receiving pixels in one scanning operation in non-interlaced form. The outputs from the CCD are converted to the digital image signals by an analog-digital converter. A camera signal processing unit processes the digital image signals, thereby generating two streams of signals; one is digital video signals SV1 which are standard digital video signals in interlaced form, and the other is signals SV2 which are not outputted as the digital video signals SV1 out of the digital image signals of all of the light receiving pixels. These two streams of signals, SV1 and SV2, are processed differently depending upon a mode selected by a switch.

Abstract: In the first devices, MPU 53 generates random number R1 as challenge data. Random number R3 is generated by first encryption IC 54, and then combined with random number R1, encrypted, and sent to second device 52 as encrypted text C1. When encrypted text C2 is similarly received from second device 52, first encryption IC 54 decrypts C2 and separates the decrypted result into first separated data RR2 and second separated data RR4. The first encryption IC 54 returns the first separated data to second device 52 as response data. MPU 53 compares the first separated data returned from second device 52 with random number R1, and in the event of a match, authenticates second device 52 as a legitimate device. The first encryption IC 54 generates the time-varying data transfer key by combining second separated data RR4 with random number R3, and transfers the digital copyrighted data to second device 52 by using the data transfer key.

Abstract: A rotary member (12) for apparatus for straightening elongate
material such as wire has an elongate housing (34; 234) and a
plurality of deflection members (37-39, 112, 114; 237, 238,
312, 314) for engaging wire being fed through the housing.
This engagement displaces the wire radially with respect to the
housing axis so that the feeding of the wire through the
housing while the latter is rotating helps to straighten the
wire. The member is characterised in that the housing is
hollow and contains the deflection members, and in that the
member includes retaining means (160, 162; 360, 362) for
retaining the deflection members in the housing. The advantage
of such a rotary member is that deflection members can be
removed simply by removing the retaining means, ie without
dismantling the housing. Preferably, the rotary members
directly engage the housing so that the housing can angularly
and axially locate the members therein. This is particularly
advantageous since it facilities the provision of means of
providing radial adjustment of the radial members. Wire
straightening apparatus comprising a pair of such rotary
members and drive means for counter-rotating the rotary members
is also shown, as is a wire bending machine having the wire
straightening apparatus and feed means for feeding the wire
through the apparatus and to a bending head (1).

Abstract: A variable exhaust nozzle (26) for a turbine engine
nacelle (16) includes a pair of semi-cowls (58,60)
disposed about a longitudinally extending central
axis(14) and a pair of corresponding shells (36,38) each
of which is spaced radially inwardly from the
corresponding semi-cowl and is pivotable about a pivot
axis (42,44) between an extended position and a
retracted position. The semi-cowls and shells have
curved, geometrically similar inner and outer surfaces
(86, 100) respectively so that gap (108) between the
shells and the cowl is uniform irrespective of the
angular orientation of the shells. A seal (128) which
includes longitudinally extending legs (128a,128b) and
an optional circumferential leg (128c) prevents
detrimental air leakage. Pivotal movement of the shells
effects large changes in the discharge area A D  of the
nozzle without compromising the external aerodynamic
characteristics of the nacelle. In one embodiment of
the invention, each shell includes an extension (110)
which facilitates the attainment of large area changes.
The radial uniformity of gap (108) contributes to the
durability and simplicity of the seal by ensuring that
the seal is not repeatedly compressed and relaxed during
operation of the nozzle.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé pour amplifier de préférence un ARN cible par rapport à un ARN non cible dans un échantillon d'ARN testeur. Selon ce procédé, un échantillon d'ARN testeur est mis en contact avec des séquences pilotes qui sont complémentaires de l'ARN non cible dans des conditions où les séquences pilotes s'hybrident à l'ARN non cible. Une amorce d'acide nucléique est ensuite étendue, au moyen de l'ARN cible en tant que matrice, de façon à former une matrice d'ADN complémentaire d'une partie ou de la totalité de l'ARN cible. La matrice d'ADN formée au moyen de l'ARN cible comme matrice est ensuite rendue monocaténaire, pour permettre l'hybridation de la matrice d'ADN à une matrice promotrice. La matrice d'ADN est ensuite étendue au moyen de la matrice promotrice, pour former une matrice d'ADN étendue, comprenant un promoteur bicaténaire fonctionnel. Des copies multiples de la séquence d'ARN cible peuvent alors être transcrites à partir de la matrice d'ADN étendu, par reconnaissance du promoteur bicaténaire fonctionnel contenu par l'ARN-polymérase.

Abstract: Polypeptides are expressed by the pituitary-tumor-transforming-gene (PTTG), formerly known as pituitary-tumor-specific-gene (PTTG), and nucleic acids encode them. Examples are the human and rat PTTG proteins. The nucleic acids may be applied to the production of a recombinant protein, and to the detection of the presence of PTTG genes in different species. The nucleic acids may be operatively linked to a vector, optionally provided with control and expression sequences and/or being carried by a host cell. The nucleic acids may also be delivered to a mammal to compensate for the absence, or a defective expression, of endogenous protein. The nucleic acids, proteins, and antibodies are also employed in disgnostic assays, as well as, for example, in the production of anti-PTTG antibodies (protein), therapeutic compositions and other applications of the proteins and antibodies. Various kits utilize nucleic acids, polypeptides, and/or antibodies. A transgenic non-human mammal expresses PTTG.
